This is mainly background information on the game, including screenshots, and a look at the graphics, gameplay, and other such aspects.

It's the Witch. Not sure why GT apparently took that video down now though.

I don't know about the german video, but I read the RPS interview earlier today and hoped TRS/Valve would clarify if L4D has splitscreen for the 360. Alas it did not. That makes or breaks my decision to buy since I don't have 360 and my brother-in-law doesn't have a decent computer, so I would have to go over to his house to play l4d. Maybe the next interviews will.

CVG's preview is also up, and it is a must read. Medpacks just became my new favorite weapon, you'll see what I mean .

From the March 2008 OXM I have and that is sitting right in front of me:

L4D will feature four player co-op and either-player, 4 on 4 Versus matches via Xbox Live or System Link.

Being able to play two people split screen... four player would be even better... but i don't think four would happen. But for us, the idea of having two people play split-screen, playing co-op on the couch and letting the NPCs fill out the rest ... It's a pretty big feature for us to chase. But right now, we're not ready to say if it's in or it's out.

The release is scheduled for Fall 2008 and planned to ship simultaneously all over the world.
