Alien Swarm

Postby mecraigery11 » Tue Jul 20, 2010 6:52 am

I need to try this game out... Top down 4 player coop

http://store.steampowered.com/app/630/

It is free and apparently the guys who made the Alien Swarm mod for UT2004 were hired by valve (worked on L4D2 and Portal 2) had been working on this from scratch as a side project.

Interesting. Kinda reminds me of the Nazi Zombies game that was a part of COD WaW.

Of course I know Carpenter Bill will be all over this with it being on Steam and all. :mrgreen:

Been playing it in both modes. A fun game. I love the mini-gun the Spec-Weapons chick uses. Kicks ass.
