Zombie obliterators who've managed to survive Left 4 Dead 2's "Dark Carnival" campaign are probably familiar with the Southern rock outfit known as the Midnight Riders. While they're not exactly an enormous focus in the game's overarching story, a teaser page featuring the heavily bearded band (and a cryptic "Coming Soon") is leading some folks to believe that the Riders will soon play a much larger role in the game's proceedings.
Given the number of facial hair-sporting members of the band (see: four), we're really hoping to get some form of DLC that turns them into playable characters. Perhaps even a new campaign, in which they cure the global zombie infection using nothing but the power of their rock music. How about it, Valve?

ah, I see what they meant by "deeper story" in L4D2, it means they plastered the game with unexplained back-stories so they could have something to use for DLC later, with L4D1 they were grasping straws.

Now that's what you call a beard. None of this wimpy soul patch stuff, but full-on wild free range BEARD!
