Unless, of course, New Zealanders get no lag with us poor Aussies?

That's a call to everyone too (as early as it may be to start it), I'd like locals to play this game with at launch. I'd rather play with some people I semi-know off the forums than some randoms on the random server I happen to choose.

I know what you mean, i hate playing with retared kids or Gangsters

I have a theory: Survivors are Combine. Why? You ask? Well, they use granades (pipe bombs) that make beeping noice, and so do Combines, am I right?
Lawl.

Yes that's been said before. Fairly sure that's the EU release date considering everything.

Is it split-screen co-op?

The Xbox version has split-screen, if I'm not mistaken.

Also, nice name.

I'm not sure, General probably knows more about that.

Not at the moment. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it gets ported later on, especially if it becomes a hit on the PC and X360.

You're welcome.

2 player split far as I recall what was said when it was first announced.

As far as a PS3 version.. not now.. Might not ever happen, we won't know till later on for more than one reason.

[TheBurningP!e]

1 player per computer

2 players per xbox max

No PS3 version, not now not ever.

That's what they all say at first. Most games end up being timed exclusives, cos there's money to be made. A ♥♥♥♥ty port or not, Left 4 Dead will most likely land on the PS3 at some point.

Just two.

I'm sure this was in the thread, I'll have a quick check after I post.

/EDIT

The info's there:

I understand some people don't want to read through a wall of text, but that's why I put the entire things into catagories. In this case the above information was under this label:

Not trying to be condescending, but I do think some people should make at least a cursory attempt to find the information first.

Not soon, at the very least.

It wouldn't surprise me if it didn't come out on PS3 at all, to be honest.

If you can link to the interview, I will have a look and update if neccessary.

There was 1,000 lines of dialogue per character (which made for a total of 4,000 lines for the Survivors only), but that was based off an old source, and they might have added more, or that 8,000 includes the groans and such from the Infected.
