When I saw the jukebox I laughed because I realized it's a Shaun of the Dead reference. For one, the jukebox is in a pub. Secondly, at times when you turn the jukebox on, it signals the horde. Anyone else notice this?
@homestarunner137001: Does it play "Don't Stop Me Now" with the lights flashing on and off while a horde of zombies raves outside? Because that would be fucking awesome. #left4dead2
Heh, I discovered this Juke box when I was playing the 360 demo... and promptly forgot how I activated it, since next time I came to it, I couldn't get it to work... by shotting it. I didn't realise it had extra tracks though...
Gotta try this again tonight then... Oh Bugger... Busy Busy Busy... #left4dead2
@Orionsaint: I'm playing the PC version and the game doesn't seem to want to load the survivors head models. Also, special infect are invisible but I can faintly seen an outline of the shape. Sometimes it happens to the tank, but he flickers on and off. #left4dead2
@crunks: Reinstall the demo. There are no officially reported bugs, just a handful of bad downloads because of the huge strain the Steam servers took when the demo went live. To quote the Steam forums: "At the same time the demo went up, so did Borderlands, and the our data servers kinda took it hard." #left4dead2
@crunks: Maybe... Just Maybe... You should look at your PC. I'm pretty sure the thousands of other players of this demo didn't have that issue. At least I didn't. #left4dead2
this is cute and all, but, it'd be nice if they took that $25 million they used for marketing, and put it towards adding something interesting besides a jukebox.
or perhaps towards better graphics to make it at least look like a new game and not a $60 expansion. #left4dead2
@Xer0Signal: I find the graphics (on 360) to be good enough, especially considering the amount of action & zombies on screen.
The feeling it's an expansion does ring true. I couldn't help but feel the additions over L4D1 I found in the demo were too little to make me want to pay more than €20 for them. #left4dead2
@Nazraen: The problem with it is that it'll spawn the horde no matter how far from the jukebox you are. So, some idiotic team mate could hit it, and you could conceivably hit a tank down the street 30 seconds later.
I'll bet that would be the fastest 4 white boxes ever to appear on your screen after that. =P #left4dead2
@RogueA: Ha! I didn't know it didn't have a radius of effect. That's just a little over the top. Either way, I like battling off hordes of infected. I feel like I come out an injured bad ass. #left4dead2
@Trygle12... NOW IN HD!: Yeah, when I saw the image of the jukebox I assumed that was what this post was about, until I noticed they were talking about that other JoCo song.
I much prefer Re: Your Brains for the setting. #left4dead2
@Trygle12... NOW IN HD!: The songs are numbered on the Jukebox. Songs 1 and 2 are some rock song, song 3 is "When the Saints Go Marching In", song 4 is "Re: Your Brains." If you look allll the way to the right, theres a number 5, that one is "Still Alive." #left4dead2
@Archaotic: Aaaah I thought that was actually quite funny. Too bad Valve, maybe they'll do the whole four fingers thing and change it prerelease.... #left4dead2
haven't picked up Rock Band Unplugged yet.....$1.99 for each song is crazy-stupid for a slimmed down portable emulation of the killer experience Rock Band is supposed to be.
really wish they would have made a true successor to the Frequency/Amplitude line of games. milk that RB stuff Harmonix!
@wink311: I have never play RB or GH for that matter but comparing unplugged with the console version of RB is like comparing mario kart with Gran turismo(or forza for the fans)is not or ever be the same experience but the damn game is pretty damn fun so don't just dismiss it just because is "slimmed down portable emulation"
If you really like(or love)Amplitude like i do then trust me you will love this game as well.
@Curse_Lily: yeah, maybe i should have re-phrased? (coffee hasn't kicked in yet)
i ADORE Rock Band :) ....but there is def something keeping me from the Unplugged version. $2 for a song is justified when I put it into a multiplayer/big-screen/loud environment. seems hefty for a PSP version though.
i'm prob just bitter because the chances of ever again seeing some sweet button-rhythm-electronica are slim to none ;P

Yesterday I got my best friend to try the demo coop with me on PC. The song played within three tries, as if to mock me.
The jukebox is a lie! #left4dead2

It summons a horde at the refrain after the line "Here's an FYI, you're all gonna die SCREAMING"
