Without playing on European servers though you can't really appreciate these things as much. Russian is the worst..... no matter how many times they spam me with messages I'm not going to be able to read such glyphs. Why they would expect me to be able to read it I have no idea.

In fact, Left4Dead's basic gameplay sounds very similar to The Crossing's outside of the fact that half of the campaign maps you play in the latter are meant to be offline (though apparently other players can "invade" there too). I do have to say that the narrative sounds more interesting on The Crossing's part, though, especially since you and your friends can go down different paths and unexpectedly find yourselves trying to kill each other at a future point in time.
