Left 4 Dead 2: Best Mods

It’s been a while, I know, but I have returned to share my excessive knowledge of video games and present to you an article blazoning the all-time best mods for the legendary game, Left 4 Dead 2. This is one of my absolute favorite games, combining zombie killing and, well, more zombie killing. And the occasional sarcastic comment from Coach, the long-winded personal story from Ellis, the constant cursing from Rochelle, and the lack of unique or intriguing things to say from Nick sure don’t hurt. Anyway, what really makes this game great is its mods. The game eventually gets boring or repetitive after playing it for ten or eleven hours, but the mods really help to revive it. From Teletubby zombies, to Shrek, to Darth Maul, the Left 4 Dead 2 Steam Workshop is full of a lot of fun mods that make the game fun, even on the fifteenth time through. Here’s a few mods to pique your interest:

LEFT 4 TELETUBBIES 2

This is literally the greatest mod of all time. You know all of those scary, screeching, moaning zombies that you used to blow to bits? Well, now they’re all Teletubbies. Instead of all of those regular, scary, spooky zombie noises that everyone’s used to hearing, now you can have nightmares of the undead screaming “binky winky” as they run full-sprint after you. If you’re not into Teletubbies, the runner up for this category was the Left 4 Stormtroopers 2 mod, where all common infected turn into, you guessed it, Stormtroopers.

THE ULTIMATE JOHNNY BRAVO TANK

This mod is just pure fun. The big, bad and almost unkillable tank is transformed into Johnny Bravo, and he’s mad. In between smashing the ground and throwing cars at you, you can hear Johnny Bravo yell things like, “don’t make me assert my authority as an adult,” “ohhh baby,” “you’re gonna make me sick,” “well, you can just suck lemons,” “eat marinara, dirtball,” “gimme a dollar,” “outta my way, kid, you obviously don’t know anything,” and more. I think that’s all the explanation this mod needs.

NICOLAS CAGE FLASHLIGHT

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just take some time to admire this masterpiece.

If you’re not satisfied with these simple but amazing mods, there are thousands of other great mods out there too that are just waiting to be explored. Otherwise, if, for some strange reason, you don’t own this game, I highly suggest buying it. For only $20, you can experience Nick Cage’s face as a flashlight while you shoot Teletubbies and are ridiculed by Johnny Bravo. If that’s not enough for you, then go read Will Harvey’s article in this issue where he discusses the core qualities of the game that make it so good. Thanks for reading!
