New Left 4 Dead 2 TV spot, Scavenge mode walkthrough

by Richard Mitchell { Nov 4th 2009 at 4:20PM }

Just in case GameStop's Left 4 Dead 2 commercial was a little too slow-paced for you, Valve has released a new TV spot that's nothing but action. Of course, that action is culled entirely from the CG trailer that was leaked last month, so you won't see anything new here. You will hear something new, however, as the commercial has been injected with a thumping blues-rock soundtrack, making the whole thing feel like a big, sprawling, undead bar fight.

Come to think of it, it sounds like Joystiq Publishing just found its next game. No one has the rights to Undead Bar Fight, right? While we go do a little research, watch the trailer above and, after the break, watch G4's walkthroughs of the Scavenge and Survival modes.

What the hell are they saying in the lyrics of the first one? "Bang bang bang, buy my nuts buy my nuts?"

Dux0r @ Nov 4th 2009 4:58PM

"bang, bang, bang, bang. Vamanos, Vamanos"

The song is Electric Worry by Clutch, and is a tune n a half. :D

Clutch kicks major ass.

TJCoolguy @ Nov 6th 2009 12:48PM

I was just about to come on here and note how important it is that Clutch is playing during this, and how much it makes me happy whenever the commercial comes on TV, but thankfully my fellow Clutch fans have already noted it.

TBH, I'm kinda hoping for a real zombie apocalypse, just so all the time I've spent playing zombie games and watching zombie movies weren't in vein. I'd be fun to see how long you last.

Zing @ Nov 4th 2009 5:30PM

I like to think id survive it but having only ever shot an air rifle at a fairground to win a gold fish i dont think i would survive very long.

Ulquiorra Cifer @ Nov 4th 2009 4:31PM

Im going to buy this game, and buy Left 4 Dead 3 next year as well

CaramelZappa @ Nov 4th 2009 5:05PM

If they make an L4D3 next year instead of finally finishing Episode 3 my head is going to explode.

Einhanderkiller @ Nov 4th 2009 5:41PM

They're not working on L4D3. Gabe Newell said that they're researching a scalable AI system and that, if they do work on L4D3, it'll be around 3 years out. (Source: GameSpot interview)

Still no zombie babies?

ShadowXOR @ Nov 4th 2009 4:41PM

This chick looks like she's about to cry at all times.

Flo @ Nov 4th 2009 4:49PM

I just played the Demo. It's awesome if you haven't played L4D1 before. If you have played L4D1 before then it's nice to see the improvements, but it doesn't have that OMG factor. I was going to buy it but now I think I'll get borderlands instead and buy L4D2 later.

necrothug @ Nov 4th 2009 6:33PM

I disagree. Me and my entire crew so far have loved every new addition to the game. The additional gore is enough to make me scream "OMMFG!!!!!!"

Autopsy15 @ Nov 4th 2009 6:58PM

That's right, his /entire/ crew.

Gibbeynator @ Nov 4th 2009 7:04PM

I just hope the levels are longer in the full game. The Parish feels WAY shorter than Crash Course, and that was already pretty short...

Omega2k3 @ Nov 5th 2009 7:03AM

The demo wasn't the entire campaign.

Also, I hope I never play with the G4 chick. She shot a boomer that was standing RIGHT next to two teammates...

D @ Nov 4th 2009 4:57PM

So I'm assuming there will be story in this one. Not just one level cloned 4 times in different environments?

ChuckBartowski @ Nov 4th 2009 5:11PM

you don't need a story to kill zombies.

AsherR [Planeteer | Power of The Hoff] @ Nov 4th 2009 5:21PM

I'm not sure how in depth it'll be, but I think there will either be a story or a meta story in it.
*DEMO SPOILER*
When i played the demo the is a spray paint that says "Who is Cuna?" or something like that. And there are body bags with "Cuna" written as a logo. So perhaps there will be references to the cause of the Infected or something? One can hope and speculate.

*/SPOILER*

Einhanderkiller @ Nov 4th 2009 5:27PM

It's CEDA, and it's a fictional mash-up of FEMA and the CDC.

D @ Nov 4th 2009 7:24PM

Haha FEMA and their body bags for when the NWO takes over? Nice, that sounds like a storyline I can get behind.

Turn Adblock off, that worked for me.

Arturo @ Nov 4th 2009 6:50PM

Abbie Heppe was pretty cute in the realism mode video. Not as much in these =/

Giroro @ Nov 4th 2009 6:58PM

Awww, G4 is so cute when they try to pretend they care about games.

That One Guy With The Hat @ Nov 4th 2009 6:58PM

Buying this day one because Valve has badass tastes in music.

froggeh @ Nov 4th 2009 7:56PM

I would be embarrassed to have publicized those videos.

Furian @ Nov 5th 2009 10:28AM

Did anyone else hear "Still Alive" in the jukebox in the demo? I wonder what other treats are in store for us?

Timerider @ Nov 5th 2009 12:59PM

"Re: Your Brains" also by Jonathan Coulton plays on the jukebox as well. I actually was looking at the game files on the PC version and found the folder of jukebox music. It's all like 700kbps .wav files. I noticed that song was in there and immediately went into the demo to play it in game.
