Left 4 Dead in 8-bit glory!

Old school gamers should really get a kick out of this one.

Someone has gone through the trouble of converting the original Left for Dead into an 8-bit NES game. So far they have converted the first campaign, 'No Mercy' with plans to convert all 5 maps of all 4 campaigns.



The game is scheduled to be made available as a free PC download Jan 4th, 2010. According to the game's creator, '([Left 4 Dead developer] Valve doesn't know about it yet, but I'm sure (with their love of community creations) that they will find this mildly amusing at worst, and hilarious at best.'

Looks a little easy but not a bad start at all!

Definitely going to play this when it's done.

The 8-Bit craze is astounding. The further we get away from the bad graphics of old, the more we reuse them and play them.

Here is an 8-Bit version of Tekken 2, which I believe was made for the actual NES console, way back when Tekken 2 came out. (The same was done for the SNES I believe):

Gametrailers...

As bad as this looks, I'm sure that a lot of people here, would enjoy taking it for a spin.

Long live retro games....
