Valve’s Left 4 Dead Due for the Wii?
During a recent interview with Gaming247.com yesterday at the GDC, Doug Lombardi of Valve Software unleashed their plans for the upcoming game Left 4 Dead to the public. You’d recognise Valve as the people behind games such as Half-Life, Portal, Team Fortress, and Counter Strike. Yeah, there are some serious devs over there. Anyways, it seems as if they have no plans to release their upcoming zombie killing adventure on the PS3 and could do it on the Wii if they wanted to.
He goes on to speculate that if they were to bring their next title over to the console arena other than the Xbox 360 (which is pretty much the same as a PC), they’d bring the game over to the Wii.
“If Valve were to develop in-house for another format, it would be the Wii. It’s growing, there’s already a huge user-base, and it’s fun. Source is really scalable. We can do that.”
Hm, will another zombie killing outing on the Wii make it? There’s already Resident Evil 4 and a bunch of others already lined up to hit the Wii. Will the Valve name be enough to suffice if they do bring it over? I say yes, yes, and more yes. If the makers of the best game created wants to start up a new project on the Wii, I’ll back them with a purchase no doubt.
