          Political correctness gone stupid. Apparently calling it Christmas is too sad for the Jews and Darkies so they call it the Holiday season because they don't want to rock the boat, especially by patronizing Jews or Darkies

    All I needed to know was the L4D and L4D2 dlc. Which is more than enough for me.

    Also good to see that DR2 isn't going to be released in 2011. I was gonna have a heart attack. At least it's coming out this year.
