Left 4 Dead 2, a game where you fight zombies, is out today, and one of the big additions to the sequel is that you can now use melee weapons in addition to the firearms from the first game. There are quite a few different melee weapons in the mix (I never knew that thing was called a “tonfa”!), but Valve wasn’t able to use all of the ideas they had.
