The Sacrifice and No Mercy on Left 4 Dead 2

So The Sacrifice came out for Left 4 Dead 1 and 2, as well as updating No Mercy for Left 4 Dead 2. So I took some time playing with this new maps. During this time I was playing with completely unbalanced teams, but that can be fun every once and a while. One very serious glitch I found in the Left 4 Dead 2 version of No Mercy was that the elevator kept dropping me. This happened in both campaign mode and VS mode and with different characters. I do not know why, but it only happened to me every time we got in the elevator. Extremely frustrating.
I really enjoy the updated No Mercy, the new weapons just fit seamlessly into the game. The Sacrifice is an extremely exciting new map. It is a lot more challenging that the basic maps, just as Crash Course was when Valve first brought that to the table. I like it a lot better on Left 4 Dead 2 than 1, mostly because the graphics are more appealing.
I give two thumbs up to the new updates on the L4D series. Now I want my tank plushie.

Dragon Age 2!


Yup, I said it. Dragon Age: Origins is going to go number 2 (ewww gross) but no really, I'm excited. I'm not as much of a skeptic on sequels in the gaming world, it is just movies that should probably just stop at one unless they are part of a series and still then. Toy story 3...please? Shrek is the worst, please no more large farting green people. One was funny, two was ok...three was too much...I don't even want to go on. Anyways HERE is the article on The Escapist about it. Also if you go to the Bioware page for Dragon Age: Origins you can sign up for the newsletter that will give you the latest news on their soon to be sequel. SUPER exciting. This is a game I might just buy right at the release. Now the question that is hovering over this announcement is...Will it be as good as the first one? Better? More polished and also original? I guess we will have to wait till next year to see.
