Left 4 Dead engine branch is more closer than Source 2009, but I think we can be more precise about this. What do you think? --Barracuda 23:02, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Can't we just call it the Alien Swarm branch and be done with it? A Valve employee said it was branched off several months ago from the main...line(?).Skeith 03:15, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
