Left 4 Dead

Playing the Left 4 Dead demo was a huge amount of fun, and I'm seriously tempted by the full game.

However it is a online co-op game primarily, so I'd like to know some of my friends have it or will get it before I go and invest in it myself.

So is anyone out there getting it?

For those that don't know, basically 4 hardcore player survivors vs 4 respawning special zombie players playing the special zombies joining hordes of AI zombine, in a cinematic movie style game. With the number and type of zombie spawning controlled by the AI director. The most wonderfully entertainly sadistic AI I've encountered in a game so far.

To get a feel, the intro movie.
