Necrophobics, hoplophobics, hemophobics, etc.

Or just little kids who don't have access to a credit/debit card or from their mommies.

Oh. I thought they were giving it away.~

But it's only going to be free for this weekend. Makes much more sense.

Or people who are just terrible at shooting games.

/sucks at shooters and is hemophobic

eh, L4d is more about paying attention
there's always shotguns and hunting rifles for people who dont play shooting games well
The only legitimate excuse is if you get motion sickness

2nd is a huge improvement over the first
in terms of weapons, graphics, and difficulty increase
but the zombies are stupid strong, especially in versus.

I could go for a quick game this weekend.

If there are any takers.
