Take a look at one of Left 4 Dead's earliest prototypes thanks to a Counter-Strike: CZ update mistake


Wuh-oh, for some reason, an "extremely early" Left 4 Dead prototype has been found thanks to a recent Counter-Strike: CZ update.


Video games are weird little things - sometimes a dev will build something in a game that ends up unused, and it just has to get locked away as removing it could risk breaking everything else.
