I don’t know why the gore-mongers at Valve can’t just leave bad-enough alone with their fantastically successful and top-selling Anti-Zombie game series Left 4 Dead. Cleverly and deviously, they keep interest in their flagship hyper-violent co-operative experiment in Living Supremacy alive by providing updates and new gameplay modes to add to the circus of online bloodletting that the games represent.

But couldn’t they just leave the Zombie Community alone on New Years? Did they have to go out of their way to poke the Differently Animated with a stick on the holiday? GameDaily brings us this news:

While some people will be heading out to their local hangout to toast in 2011 with some good friends (and maybe some strangers who will become good friends) others will be playing one last Left 4 Dead 2 online game for 2010.

…

It’s called Flu Season and in today’s Left 4 Dead blog update Valve says its actually a combination of two commuity-created Mutation modes: “Boomer Shooter” by SR69MMJC and “Spitters!” by Karma Jockey.

The extreme dedication of Living Supremacists like Valve is why I can’t take vacations anymore. Eternal vigilance is the price of Zombie Rights advocacy!
