Celebrating the pre-Halloween weekend, Left 4 Dead 2 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/left-4-dead-2) will be free on Steam this weekend. Valve announced (http://www.l4d.com/blog/post.php?id=9170) that starting Thursday the co-op shooter will be gratis to play and is currently available to pre-load.
This weekend adds a new achievement titled "Good Guy Nick" for current players who join up with a free weekend warrior.
It should also be mentioned, in case you haven't paid attention the multi-million selling franchise (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/09/30/left-4-dead-series-sells-more-than-12-million/) in a while, that Left 4 Dead 2 added many of the maps from the original Left 4 Dead as free DLC on PC (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/08/01/left-4-dead-2-cold-stream-dlc-for-xbox-360-this-friday/) a while back.
