pokedead Pokemon Meets Left 4 Dead: Laughter Ensues

Imagine yourself vs. the A.I. Director in Left 4 Dead dueling it out on your Nintendo DSi, Pokemon style. Yesterday, we took a look at the 8-bit Left 4 Dead game that will be coming out in January, but if you like your undead mixed with a little Pikachu, you’ll love this short flash video.

Created by Distract-A-Bee, the video celebrates Left 4 Dead 2, but none of the new characters (survivors or infected) are present in the video. Another video may probably be made, though, as not all the infected from the original are present in this game, and the video commenters are requesting to see the Boomer do his thing, Frank the Tank style. No matter, it is still a great video to watch, and, hopefully, Distract-A-Bee will create a follow up.

Similarly, our hopes are that Eric Ruth will also create an 8-bit version of Left 4 Dead 2 featuring the new environments that submerge players in the darker side of the deep south. If not, something along the lines of Alive 4 Ever would be really kickin’.
