Thanks to the official Left 4 Dead blog, we now know the ESRBās rules for how many gnawed of human fingers one can highlight on a video game box: exactly one.
According to an update to the official blog, courtesy of āL4D Team,ā the Entertainment Software Ratings Board apparently thought that having a chewed off pinkie and ring finger in addition to the gobbled up thumb, as seen on the original Left 4 Dead, was going a little too far. Left 4 Dead 2 will have to stick to the āone for the thumbā ESRB bylaw for its box art. What is this? Germany?!

Ars Technica has visual proof of that clearly over the top violation of the ratings boardās ruling from E3, which looks like another 11th hour change. Frankly, weāre all a little upset about this modification to the creatorās original vision and will formalize our box art boycott plans as soon as is humanly possible! Grr!
