EDIT1: Gameplay :D




"Alien Swarm is a game and Source SDK release from a group of talented designers at Valve who were hired from the Mod community. Available free of charge, the game thrusts players into an epic bug hunt featuring a unique blend of co-op play and squad-level tactics. With your friends, form a squad of four distinct IAF Marine classes."

This thread pretty much explains my feelings towards valve

Game looks awesome and I can't wait for it to come out :D

What's wrong with the angle?
It wouldn't really work if it wasn't an overhead one.
Otherwise it would just be Left 4 Dead with aliens.

I think it works fine.
The only real issue I have with this game so far, is that every once in awhile, while attacking aliens, I'll suddenly fly high up in the air. I'm not kidding. I fall, but I can also land on some structures. It's very strange.
That, and the lag it gets when they are a lot of aliens. It hurts my ears so badly...

Me, cookie,blob and milk man are unstoppable team (sorta)

Wait...that was you? :|

Finally got around to editing my good computer so it can have Steam on it.

Alien Swarm is a 2-hour download for me. Should have it soon.

I'm loving this game.
It's very hard in later difficulties, even on normal, so I can only beat them on easy :P

Also, I wish XP would give benefits and not just unlock new weapons.
It should upgrade stuff or something.

But you can run other source games?

Weird. You turn the settings down?
