If you’ve been paying attention you’ll know that not too long ago an online group formed who swore to boycott Left 4 Dead 2 if Valve didn’t continue to support the original title. Well, shortly after that group was formed, Valve swore to continue to support the original title, which means the boycott worked, right?

According to Valve’s Dougle Lombardi, no, Valve had planned on continuing to support Left 4 Dead even before they were threatened with a boycott:

“I think there was just some confusion. When you go to E3 and make a big splash on a new product you’re trying to get the retailer’s attention and the press attention.It’s not really the venue for announcing DLC and whatnot. I think folks took our announcement as a sign that we were dropping Left 4 Dead 1 and that’s just not the case.

OK, Mr. Lombardi, we’ll believe you if you hurry up and announce that DLC pack for L4D already.
