Left 4 Disneyland 2
Posted in: Today's ChiliIf you’ve ever been to Disneyland and envisioned the throngs of tourists and snot-nosed children roaming the park as zombies, here’s something you’ll like. This crazy mod for Left for Dead 2 recreates some of the most iconic locales at Disneyland for you to play out your zombiepocalypse fantasies on.
The mod, created by Dives and SM Sith Lord is entitled Journey to Splash Mountain and includes accurate models of Adventureland, New Orleans Square, Splash Mountain, Critter Country and Main Street. Yes, you can even visit the Tiki Room. Check out a quick overview of the maps in the video below:
Here’s a much lengthier look at the gameplay below:
You can grab all five parts of the mod over on the Steam Community or at L4DMaps. Now if only they had models of Goofy, Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck as zombie NPCs, it’d be perfect.

Don’t tell Mandarin, but Tony Stark relocated his Hall of Armors to Disneyland’s Innoventions area in Tommorowland for the meantime. But being the carefree dude that he is, Tony is actually letting people into the exhibit. Either that or the security at Disneyland is a lot tougher than I thought.
As you walk through the room, Tony’s virtual butler JARVIS will tell you all about the various armors, including the Mk. XLII that will be featured in the upcoming Iron Man 3. Speaking of armors, you’ll also be able to put on one of his suits through an augmented reality interface. Here’s a brief tour of the exhibit taken by YouTuber mrdaps:
Again, the exhibit will only be up for a limited time, so visit the park ASAP before Tony decides to hide his armor somewhere else.
