And our issue on-sale in the UK on September 1st will be a Valve special, with lots more detail on their grand plan from MD Gabe Newell. We’ll have much more detail on what we’ve got inside the mag, soon.[/quote]-----[B]When does GTTV Air?[/B] [LIST] [*]9:30 PM PST [*]11:30 PM CT [*]12:30 AM EST [*]4:30 AM GMT [/LIST] -----[B]Media[/B] [LIST] [*][URL]http://www.gametrailers.com/video/episode-321-gametrailers-tv/703139[/URL] [*][URL]http://www.gametrailers.com/episode/gametrailers-tv/101[/URL] [*][URL]http://www.pcgamer.com/2010/08/21/interview-valve-on-their-new-left-4-dead-dlc/[/URL] [*][IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/lol1234567891011121314151617.png[/IMG] [*][IMG]http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa215/Thegreen16/pic4.jpg[/IMG] [*][IMG]http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa215/Thegreen16/pic3.jpg[/IMG] [*][IMG]http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa215/Thegreen16/pic2.jpg[/IMG] [*][IMG]http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa215/Thegreen16/pic1.jpg[/IMG] [/LIST]
Please no spoilers in the OP, I want to watch the video and be surprised at everything I see. I don't want to enter this thread tomorrow morning and have my entire 45 minutes of video spoiled. To be honest, I don't want to see anymore L4D1 dlc after this upcoming one. Be like Mass Effect, release this last one and be done with it. Continue focusing on 2.
Spoilers? The OP will be update with information surrounding the new info on the DLC for L4D and the new Portal info.
[QUOTE=EliteGuy;24212455]Spoilers? The OP will be update with information surrounding the new info on the DLC for L4D and the new Portal info.[/QUOTE] Well at least put the video URL at the top somewhere and all the good info at the bottom where I cannot see it.

[QUOTE=ZapDing;24212901]No matter how hard valve try they can't make a storyline to their games. [editline]06:00PM[/editline] Anyone know the time for GMT+/-?[/QUOTE] I hope you are joking. Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 have a poor story, while Half-Life has an amazing story to it.
[quote=EliteGuy]New DLC for L4D2[/quote] Holy shit I never knew this part.
[QUOTE=ZapDing;24212901]No matter how hard valve try they can't make a storyline to their games. [editline]06:00PM[/editline] Anyone know the time for GMT+/-?[/QUOTE] The fuck are you smoking son.
[QUOTE=ZapDing;24212901]No matter how hard valve try they can't make a storyline to their games. [editline]06:00PM[/editline] Anyone know the time for GMT+/-?[/QUOTE] GMT 0 is in the OP, just do the math
I actually placed that wrong, I mean that no-matter how hard they try to keep stories out of their games (TF2/Partial L4D) that they usually add one, whether it be in-game, out of the game or as free updates. Also give me Books for not reading and bad spelling for making my sentence not make sense.
It adds to the immersion, that's why I find most multiplayer games boring as hell, such as CSS, because it's just running and gunning, no backstory / beforehand information.

I didn't say I didn't either :colbert:
"Grand plan" What is that...? :D
[QUOTE=Varttiva;24213425]"Grand plan" What is that...? :D[/QUOTE] What do you mean?
Here is the .swf banner with a countdown to the time: [url]http://www.gametrailers.com/moses/minimassives/countdown_episode_321.swf[/url] Would be a good addition to the OP.
It's not accurate, unless it's the countdown to when they put the episode online.
I'm so hyped for all of this information, man! Should be awesome!:awesome:
You guys are acting worse than Twilight fans on opening night. Bet you squeal at all the shiny new stuff in trailers.
you bet
Probably worse than this. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWOlAlKajFY[/media]
Hell yeah man
Thank you Butthurter you have reconfirmed my confidence in a small population of humanity.

I am a little disappointed at the fact that all of the L4D/L4D2 campaigns are tied together. Somehow I liked it when they were different scenarios.
I will have to get PCGamer on September 1st if it's a Valve special.
The information on L4D1 and 2 DLC will probably be very briefly explained or shown.
Kind of like how they said Episode 3 news last year and all we got was a "We're working on it hurr."
5:30 AM, GMT +1? Looks like I'm gonna be up tonight.
