Play As The Original ‘Left 4 Dead’ Cast In ‘Left 4 Dead 2’

Published

When Left 4 Dead was first unveiled Louis, Francis, Zoey and Bill looked a tad bit different from what they do today. Louis didn’t have his partially untucked shirt, Francis looked significantly… homelier, Zoey had a tightly bandaged arm and Bill looked even more badass than he does now, if you can believe it. Tweaking a character’s design is nothing new, it happens all the time in video game development. Characters change over time as a series evolves, or even during the time between a game’s announcement and its release.

If you’re feeling a little nostalgic for the good old days, before people complained when Left 4 Dead 2 came too soon and complained again when Left 4 Dead 3 took too long, then this is for you. You can find the original original cast of Left 4 Dead in the Steam Workshop.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
