Wherein I wax prosaically about everything Nerdly: comics, games, books, TV, RPGs, movies, technology and more.

Why do I proudly embrace the word 'Nerd'? Because in my opinion a nerd is simply someone who doesn't let society decide what they should like. A nerd is someone who likes what they like and doesn't give a damn what anyone else thinks about their hobbies.

Escape From NY Meets Left 4 Dead
Posted 05-18-2009 at 05:53 PM by DoctorFinger
Watching Escape from New York last night on TV I came to the realization that it would make a perfect mod/total conversion for Left 4 Dead.
Almost all the elements are there. Instead of Bill, Zoey, Louis and Francis you'd play as Snake, Cabbie, Brain and Maggie. Each campaign would require you to free the President, and escape somehow. Maybe over the bridge, maybe to a glider, maybe to a boat.
I'm not quite sure how to handle the special infected, but that can be worked out. Either way, it would be better than the proposed 'remake' starring Gerard Butler.
