Left 4 Dead free for 24 hours from Steam!

Hi all. Steam is letting PC users play L4D for free startin at 12:01 am GMT Friday for 24 hours. (As in Thursday night, 8PM Eastern time, tonight) You can pre-load the game now so that you don't have to fight for it later.

Thanks! Not to mention they're selling it for $24 bucks this weekend. Sweet deal, my friend's finally gonna get it now.

Steam may not be perfect, but I like the way they do some things a lot. Letting people try a full game like UT3 or L4D for a day or two, and slashing prices is way cool. Demos are fine, but getting the entire game to try out is great. And $24 for L4D? Hell yeah.

I took advantage of the free trial to play my first Left 4 Dead game with Baraka_Guru today. They've sucked me into taking advantage of the sale price and buying it this weekend. Baraka says I'm a natural born zombie killer, so when the zombie apocalypse does finally come I guess I'll be set.

man, if only they had done this last weekend... but I already bought the orange box last weekend, and there is no way I am buying a new game now.

You know I don't play a whole lot of games anymore these days, but if there is a large community here that plays this online I might just have to buy it. I have always enjoyed playing online games with friends but all my friends have shitty computers now that can't handle new games, and playing with people you don't know (Sure I don't technically know you guys) is not nearly as fun.

Here's something weird: Time for the free game should be up, and the Steam menu doesn't show any time left, but I can still play L4D. Not that I'm complaining.

I noticed that too. I think it'll stay until the next time Steam restarts.

I bought the game anyway. There's worse things I could spend $25 on.

I've been drooling over TFP's accounts of Left4Dead mayhem for a while now, but I doubt that the video card in this laptop could handle it. Also, the Internet service here is sporadic.

24 Dollars is almost obscene for that....

It's so good I don't even care that I got in at 50 the day it came out.

If you're looking for more but a bit different, and cheaper, might want to check this out

Killing Floor

It's the same guys who did Red Orchestra, if you're familiar with that

Just an independent group of modders that eventually went retail

UT2k4 Engine, but highly updated

I'm in already
