Left 4 Dead 2 is out in only a few weeks time, and the last DLC for Left 4 Dead, Crash Course, is finally available for download. The new DLC includes a new campaign consisting of two chapters, and what’s best, it’s free. That is, if you’re playing Left 4 Dead on the PC, Xbox 360 owners will have to fork out $7. It’s sad, but Valve wanted for the DLC to be free on console as well, against the wish of Microsoft. Anyways, to the review…

In Left 4 Dead: Crash Course, the story picks up where the No Mercy campaign ended, with the downed helicopter, from where you mist fight you way to a getaway vehicle. The new campaign can be played like previous campaigns, in single player, co-op mode with fellow humans, and versus mode, where one team are the survivors while the other team are the zombies. The gameplay is as crazy and tense as it always was in Left 4 Dead, however this time, the new locations are considerably darker than before, leading to a lot surprises with enemies jumping out of nearly every dark corner — this is especially useful to the ones playing the infected zombies in versus mode.
