Achievements

Left 4 Dead includes achievements for Steamworks and Xbox LIVE. There are 51 achievements in all for the PC version of Left 4 Dead (not including the 7 from Survival Mode, or the 10 from Crash Course), but only 55 for the Xbox 360 version (not including the 10 from Crash Course); the Outbreak achievement is not in the Xbox 360 version of the game. There are currently 50 achievements for Left 4 Dead 2. In the downloadable campaign, The Passing, 10 new achievements were added to Left 4 Dead 2. The Sacrifice DLC will add 5 achievements to both L4D and L4D2.

Note: Since the Crash Course update, achievements cannot be earned with cheats turned on (sv_cheats = 1). However, one way is to play on versus mode with everyone helping each other to get achievements.
