Game of the Year - LEFT 4 DEAD!

The gaming community and the media awarded Left 4 Dead as the game of the Year. 

Left 4 Dead is a cooperative first-person shooter video game. In campaign mode, the player takes control of one of the survivors; if four human players are not available, then the remaining survivors are AI-controlled bots. They play through the levels fighting off the infected—living humans who have been infected with a mutagenic, rabies-like virus to which the survivors are immune.

The game is about cooperation and team play. It is experienced through four campaigns, "No Mercy", an urban setting culminating in a hospital skyscraper. "Death Toll", a small-town and countryside setting. "Dead Air", an airport setting. And "Blood Harvest", a woodland and farm setting. In each of the game's four scenarios, you must battle your way to a series of safe houses that lead to a rescue point. You can have up to four players in a game, controlling each of the characters, but if you're short of humans, the AI can fill in and control the bots.

There are four playable human characters in the game. There's Zoey, a young woman. Bill, the grizzled veteran. Louis, the middle-class office worker. And Francis, the biker. Armed with real and makeshift weapons, these survivors must battle their way to safety.
