Vomit on People in Zombie Left 4 Dead
Posted by Brian Crecente at 7:00 AM on September 12, 2008
We already knew that the zombies would be playable in certain modes of Valve's upcoming thrill-shooter Left 4 Dead, but I bet you didn't know they would be vomiting zombies.
This week's episode of GameTrailers TV will give us a first look at those playable zombies in Left 4 Dead and yes, you can vomit on someone. THe show will also have the release date for Duke Nukem 3D on XBLA, the premiere of Need for Speed Undercover's trailer, and a sexy, sexy, but still disturbing Jenny McCarthy scene from Red Alert 3.
The show also includes an interview with Gabe and Tycho from Penny Arcade. If you listen carefully you can probably hear me knocking during the interview, but they wouldn't let me in. S'Ok, we got to talk to them next anyway.

Why do I want to throw up on zombies? Are we are a stag party? Of course from them, it'd be stub party.

I knew about this vomiting thing, in fact, if you get vomited on, zombies are pulled towards the guy who got vompitedo on. Been told, shown and so fort many times over.

Heh, and speaking of vomiting, I always had a fear of vomiting. I always hated it, especially when potions of it come out of the nose. Ewwww! xD

Old news or not, I am looking forward to vomiting on each and every one of you in November.
In game, that is.
Also lots of hot tongue action.
In game?

Exclusive gameplay for Undercover? Please, cams and high quality vids of that have been out for weeks now.
No wonder Spike is not even on my list to watch video game related content on the television. Same goes with G4, now they got this shitty show called Hurl!.
Although I have not seen G4 when it was good in the past, I can see why veterans of TV hate G4.
That is why I come to sites such as Kotaku and others to read and watch what I want on my own time.

"but I bet you didn't know they would be vomiting zombies."
Months ago... it was written in Game Informer.

I think it says something when a network that airs mostly star trek and CSI reruns airs a show at 1am...

Vomit Actions, Tongue Actions. If I was not paying attention I would of thought you guys were talking about some freaky fetish porn, lol...
But anyway I would love to finally see clip of the playable zombie side, I'm itching to be a boomer or a tank..

@digitalrift: Nah, man. He said "potions"...like Health Potions and Mana Potions. That's a good guy to have around if you ask me.
One question, RtFusion, can you do Flasks?

Old news is old.
Boomers Vomit and Explode bile which will attract Zombies to whoever it hits.
Smokers have a long tongue that can strangle players, and they release a thick black blinding smoke when they die.
(Insert forgotten Zombie name here) pounce you and slash away until you get rescued, and rumors (well not rumors, but..) also say he goes slightly invisible if he stays still.
Tanks are Tanks. Duh.
There will always be 1 Boomer, 1 Smoker, and 2 (forgotten name) zombies in play at a time, with Tanks given out periodically to players and AI by the AI director as it see's fit.
Witches are unplayable.

@digitalrift:
If you vomit hard enough, it can come out your nose. The same way if you laugh too hard, whatever liquid you were drinking can. :P

I already knew that you could throw up. They have been talking about it for a while?
You throw up then the zombies are attracted to your hot body.
