Check out the Feed story about the Left 4 Dead 2 boycott petition, and then press play to find out how The Sess feels.

I'm on the fence here.
Firstly I do agree with the fact that gamers but fans in general find themselves so important that they think that justifies acting outlandishly and like children. But at the same time I understand why they can think this way, Valve is a company that is pretty much known for their dedication to one game before making a sequel. Then they pull Left 4 dead2 out of their ass, and I admit I went: WTF is this? But if you take time out of your "busy" schedules to look at some gameplay features this looks amazing!
So bottom line it may not be the best choice but complaining just annoys everyone

the 360 owners are getting the dumbed down experience

I have to say that i was mad at Valve for this game. I wasn't mad at the fact that there is a new Left 4 Dead, I was mad that I invested in the first game and only got from Valve, ONE DLC albeit free. I love that Valve has released this game I just wish that they did it after they expanded and offered more from the first game. I just hope they drop support for the first game all together.

yeah but then all the console players would start bitching. So at least by putting it on the 360 they're pleasing some of the console players

The closest valve came to screwing over gamers was with ps3 owners, but whatever. there was a patch for orange box and it works great now (although my personal testimony might be one of few. Don't know what other people experienced after the patch). Now, what I think we should be focusing on is that Valve is bringing out a sequel to a really popular game only a year after its first inception. Now let that sink in.... When has valve EVER done that? I say we congratulate and shake their hands and do everything we can to get the point across that what they have done is an excellent idea because when it all comes down to it, I WANT MORE HALF-LIFE and I don't want to have to wait until I'm half DEAD to play more of it. Whew. In with the good air, out with the jive.

Valve is good at PC only so they should stop being show offs and trying to make profits, and make Left 4 dead 2 free. They should also call it left 4 dead Louisiana if they're bitching about it.

it's not a sense of entitlement whatsoever (well, to me it isn't) im not a angry fanboy but a angry CONSUMER. I bought the game not too long ago and yes i love the game, but it feels unfinished, like they could do a lot more with this. i know, they say that they arn't going to abandon l4d but in past experiences with certain games developers say the same thing, do a cop out update, and then abandon it. i dunno ill give them the benifeit of the doubt, but if i had known they were going to release a new one a a year after the first one came out i would have saved my money

i will gladly pay for it
and valve should just stick to pc, consoles arnt really there thing

Yep...I'm special...my mommy tells me so...as such I can make demands as I please...not only does valve need to give this awesome game out for free...they also have to make it for PS3 so I can actually play online cause Im cheap..also needs to include pie..
Oo...what ya mean I can't be sarcastic? That statement was totally based in reality...I demand they do this!!
:P

I completely agree with you on this one. The sense of entitlement that gamers get when a sequal comes out is off the charts. Left 4 Dead 2 is going to be a completely different game with a different feel to it. While, I feel that valve should have done a bit more for us console owners, I'm not going to cry about having to pay full price for left 4 dead 2. I'm gonna go to the store, pick it up, and play it to death like I do the orginal because it's a great product!
