On Monday the British Board of Film Classification, aka BBFC, released a rating of 18 for Left 4 Dead…
My thought was “No shit assholes where the hell have you been?” Upon closer inspection it was revealed to me they rated Left 4 Dead back in October 2008. So they didn’t drop the ball on this one… I then put on my glasses and saw it was Left 4 Dead Game of the Year Edition. Ahh!!! I’ve been staring at computer monitors for too long today.
So the real story here is expect a Left 4 Dead Game of the Year Edition in the near future. If you look at the time difference between when L4D was originally rated by the BBFC and when it was released you can expect almost a two month wait for GOTY.
No word on what new features the GOTY Edition will bring. To be honest I can’t see clearly enough to find out right now, so I will have to get back to you on that one. Pending what the pack in I may pick this one up finally.
Actually, this has been known about for quite a while. The GotY version has had a release date set for April 21st for about a month or so now and include versus versions of Dead Air and Death Toll as well as the new Survival mode (Which has a dozen or so maps of it’s own, including the new lighthouse map). Thou all this will be released for free to existing players.
