Those trailers are worthless without gameplay footage.
and the spelling of the game is wrong, should be "Left for Dead".
I think the authors are making a subtle joke. 4 player co-op, 4 dead players.... Left 4 dead.

I am goign to assume that when you were refering to Sarcastic Humor, you meant definition 3, which is an appeal to the ludicrous or absurdly incongruous. DUUUUUHHHHH
Perhaps I am being to subtle. I shall endevour to be more obvious when I am making a sarcastically humourous comment. Perhaps if I added the word: 'DUUUUHHH' at the end, it may help those that read my comments to detect when I am making such a comment. If that fails, I can always attach an image
it would be possible to assume you were being subtly sarcastic. But you have and therefore one cannot make that assumption.
Also, "Perhaps I am being to subtle". You mean too subtle.
