Valve Software is reporting that they have sold almost 4x more pre-orders of there controversial sequel than the first installment of the series had.  This news comes as almost a shock as the highly publicized L4D2 boycott just wrapped up a few weeks ago.  Perhaps the boycott just brought more eyeballs to L4D2 and its awesomeness or the fact that the game is a proven franchise now.

Chet Faliszek of Valve software told CVG

"As we get closer to launch we see the reaction to the demo, pre-orders are four times what Left 4 Dead 1 was, people's excitement, the boycott itself and how it's changed... I think people are just excited now," he said.
