I sort of feel as though they're doing this to try and tie up Valve in a legal battle that will force them to hold back on releasing Dota 2. This then gives Blizzard time to catch up with the development on their own MOBA game. It's either they're thinking they have a legitimate case here...
So let me get this straight. Defense of the Ancients is the name of the Warcraft mod. It becomes popular and fans abbreviate it to DOTA. Blizzard has nothing to do with the mod aside from making the base game that fans created the mod off of.
DOTA, as it is under Valve's usage is not...
Killing Floor is a different beast compared to Left 4 Dead. It's unfair and nuts to compare the two, especially when they can both be played and enjoyed by the same people.

We've a similar situation over at CSN. It's fun editing out " marks in press releases only to replace them with " marks that are made in a different font or font coding or ... whatever. I don't understand it.
Thanks Chris.
For those worried about spoilers, only the "Story" section has spoilers, and these are mainly for Episode 1 and the original HL2. The rest of the preview only features non-spoiler information from my play through of the game and also more detailed information about things seen in...
When you see them though, you can really appreciate the time that went into them. Especially since the creator spent his own time and money to make them and ship them to Valve. The shipping costs alone, well... you can just imagine what it was.
Plus they're so much fun to hold.
