Maybe it's because it's the one I grew up with, but the original 360 menu is my favorite. An overhead shot of a completely desolate city street with maybe a few zombies dotted around. There's no music either, just pure silence as you watch what an apocalypse really looks like and what happens when the last traces of life have finally died. The world isn't ending anymore; it's already ended.
3 years late responding but thats what i loved about both games,left 4 dead 1 started off hopeless,dark and gritty..But l4d2 leans more into the action side and more optimistic.I also love that l4d2 has a southern mix to it bcuz of the southeastern setting
@@GreedoTheBountyHunterr Yeah, Left 4 Dead 2 is my favorite because they added a action side to it, a new special infected, introduced uncommon infected, added Melee Weapons, and bommer bile jars for a grenade. But Left 4 Dead 1 will always be ontop for it's eerie yet horror vibe. But that's what makes both of them special in their own ways.
@@jacobiegooden3532 i also like how they describe how a different group of people look at the virus outbreak,some look at it in a negative way and people keep fighting and making the best out of the situation
This feels like when youre half life and your team lefts you for dead and you wish there was some kind of portal so you could get back to your team fortress
To make it even sadder, there's a theory that the woman singing is actually infected and singing to her baby in another room through a baby monitor, hence the radio sounding static.
I love the beginning of this because that's my childhood right here man. I sat there listening to the gun fire and booms going off.. man I miss the old days
I had a dream where Left 4 Dead 3 was released and I bought the game, which had a purple cover art on it with a hand with 4 or 3 fingers up (you’ve probably saw the picture before). When I bought the game, I woke up. Sad..
It may be nostalgia but the OG l4d1 menu is my favorite. It makes me feel cozy for some reason. The randomly generated zombies is a nice touch as opposed to the pre-determined menus of later.
I find it kinda sad that it’s only zombies left in the world and there are only 7 survivors maybe more. The menu music for left 4 dead 2 makes me feel really sad that there is no more hole left in the world. I mean if you just listen to it then you might feel just like me
@@intdisasteryeah the military are still here so the East and South States are taken over by the under reaming infected army that manage to push them West and the issue is these infected die short term if there's no people to infect.
In the Left 4 Dead Game of the Year Edition at 1:18, I couldn't hear it on this video but on my version when I sit at the main screen like that, put my headphones on and listen to the zombies I can hear them trying to say words, and what it sounds like they're saying is "Kisses" "Kissing". Curious if anyone else hears this or something similar ever....
It really gives me the creeps becuase in the area's in the menu screen its quiet empty and well....dead but one wrong move or make a noise 3 seconds later you are in a world of shit because the infected are on you 1:21 i nearly pissed myself because i thought one was behind me because im wearing headphones
2:29 ever since i purchased the pc port off of steam i gotta say, the experience is a bit different from xbox, ranging from performance to the UI itself. In my opinion the Pc version is better than game of the year, if anyone disagrees you can tell me your opinion if you want.
I was blessed with having a flaming zombie walk out and die coming from the alley in the first screen, never saw it ever again nor have i seen it happen for anyone else but I'm sure I'm not that special, if anyone else has seen this please let me know
Does anyone know how to fix this glitch where I always get kicked out of games after playing for like 10 minutes then it’s says connection lost to Xbox live then I have to keeping connecting back
The Last Stand map exist since the very first day of Left 4 dead 1 release 13 years ago as an exclusive Survival map. The Last Stand campaign from the update is actually an attempt at expanding the map into a story campaign map.
This edition of the Left4Dead Game of the Year edition, brings the 2 Left4Dead games on a single Disc? I mean, is the Left4Dead and Left4Dead2 on a single disk? or you can download the campaigns of the game 2
Is there a way to get the no mercy map as the menu screen? For me, it's death toll. I have the game of the year edition. Is the no mercy menu only on regular copies?
Gillian yup. It looks cool, especially the non-GOTYE version. But the problem is that it requires an increasingly annoying load time to get to the main menu since the game actually has to load a map. When exiting a game to the menu it becomes tiresome because of how long it takes just to load the main menu. L4D2 was better in that the menu loads instantly because its just an animated background not a map that needs to be loaded in.
funny that the Game of the Year edition doesnt have music, but the boring Left 4 Dead 1 Disc has music. Very ironic. you think it would be the other way around
You can't even hear the theme in the Xbox version. That sucks😕 Updated* 2023 I have L4D now on my pc now I just wanted see experience from the original, But for some reason I don't get the lighthouse main menu I always keep getting the crash course
In my community they once bought a CD, and that one was copied for everyone who had left 4 dead here in 2010, probably of a generic version lol .. now I wanted to know where that package is, even if there is no PC available. And, Yuki, When does your fourth season come out?
Is there any way to change the menu backgrounds of left 4 dead 1 on PC? Only the background of crash course appears, and if I want the background of the last stand to appear, how would I do it?
@vaskl8 I know but what I really meant is the background of the last stand only shows on Xbox 360 game of the year edition. It's weird that the last stand release in PC and not xbox 360 because of discontinuation.
Whoa hoo! Is console war still going on down here? Jesus man. I didn’t know mommy buying you fellas fancy pc parts would make y’all act like snobs. Just chill out everyone.
I love how the Xbox 360 menu screen is just ambience, with gunshots in the background. It gives it an eerie vibe to it
What I like is that that's actually how Valve did their menus traditionally like Half-Life and CounterStrike: ambience.
for real I wish someone would try make it an addon for PC
The remaining people fighting for their lives
At 1st I didn't get it I was just like wondering that it was just silence, the 2nd game has a theme based of background of campaigns
Man, I love it when Zombies fight each other to death in the menu screen.

i use to be scared to play L4D back then
Same

I love hearing the guns going off and explosions in the back back ground of the first main screen. I'd use to think damn people are still holding on!

so you are like 30 now?
Dang you're 32
1:18 The Last Stand map was actually...visible?
Damn this game is getting nostalgic
I thought the same. I guess I stopped play l4d 1 and went straight to the 2nd game before they changed the main menu.
It's survival mode whats been ingame way before last stand update
6:55 Dead Center was always my favorite.
I love the beginning of this because that's my childhood right here man. I sat there listening to the gun fire and booms going off.. man I miss the old days
I miss these types of title screens that changed depending on where you are in the story.
Nah, it's not really like that; it's fully randomized which menu you'll get
@@lambda-m1676 I know that’s not the case for L4D, but other valve games had a system that changed the menu, depending on progress.
I had a dream where Left 4 Dead 3 was released and I bought the game, which had a purple cover art on it with a hand with 4 or 3 fingers up (you’ve probably saw the picture before). When I bought the game, I woke up.
Sad..
plot twist: the game was in your lap and it was real
@@gooberuploadsincPlot twist: there was nothing inside the box.

I really miss the old non-GOTY Edition 360 menu. The zombie groans and fist fighting noises on the GOTYE are annoying.
Hell yeah they are. Why did they do that? Dumb decision. The regular menu is awesome.

There are probably more. CEDA helicopter took survivors to somewhere
Have you forgotten people like Virgil, the owner of the gun shop Whitaker?
It’s not the world, it’s really only the east USA. But it would have spread despite the efforts of ceda, the military; and survivors

@@amber5539 oh right that makes sense
In L4D1 it actually only appears the Crash Course background, I've never seen the Last Stand background...

Yea,it's so nostalgic that they bring it after 10 years
I kno I do game of the year edition in 1 but I didn't know there was last stand in the original
the old 360 menu is so nostalgic wow
i never knew pc background was different until i bought the game and downloaded it today. wow
Nah when on the dart carnival menu music played I for real, loved it when it went 🛸🛸🛸🛸🛸👽👽👽👽👽👽
Pc and the parish the best soundtracks
I like the l4d main menu on pc just for the music (this OST is amazing
who else agrees that the normal xbox 360 main menu gives off hopeless vibes or something similar
Valve clearly explains what's its favourite platform XD
I was blessed with having a flaming zombie walk out and die coming from the alley in the first screen, never saw it ever again nor have i seen it happen for anyone else but I'm sure I'm not that special, if anyone else has seen this please let me know

So you could listen to rain and wind noise? Or did you have the GOTY Edition where all your hear is annoying zombies groans and fist fights?
i always do that with the l4d2 menus
Man I still got the crash course menu😭

Reminds of th first time my mom caught me smoking weed on the blades, lmao good time maan
Wait... If The Last Stand released in 2020, then, what's this?
Last stand released for the survival update for l4d and it was a survival map
That was the menu in the xbox version? I didn't know they were different
Gillian yup. It looks cool, especially the non-GOTYE version. But the problem is that it requires an increasingly annoying load time to get to the main menu since the game actually has to load a map. When exiting a game to the menu it becomes tiresome because of how long it takes just to load the main menu. L4D2 was better in that the menu loads instantly because its just an animated background not a map that needs to be loaded in.
I thought the main reason they did that was to pre-render all models, textures and materials so you would load faster in matches
The main difference that they put logo on the PC in the menu on the Xbox it doesn't show the logo in the menu
I miss that first menu, and idk how to get it anymore
funny that the Game of the Year edition doesnt have music, but the boring Left 4 Dead 1 Disc has music. Very ironic. you think it would be the other way around
Is this the only menu that doesnt have music to it
L4D1 on Xbox 360 doesn't have music.
In one of the main menus it does
Only on the PC L4D1 menus.
