How to play Left 4 Dead 2's special infected before Valve wants you to
Ideally, you should just wait until Left 4 Dead 2 comes out on November 17th. But if you can't do that -- and I know how tough it is -- then you can use Saul's plug-in/hack to unlock the special infected in the Left 4 Dead 2 demo. This will give you an early taste of the jockey, charger, and spitter (pictured, ewww!). Of course, no guarantees that you won't break everything entirely. Just have a look through the comments section to get a sense of what you're in for.

But I played the demo yesterday, and I encountered all three of those ... without unlocking anything. Color me confused.

he means to play as them, not just encounter them

I just noticed in the picture that this lady zombie's thong is hanging out the top of her skirt. If you can look past the giraffe neck, grotesquely decaying face and chest, and love of human flesh.... kinda hot.
As a side note, I was one of those on the "release L4D2 as DLC" bandwagon, but having played the demo, I don't mind them releasing it at full retail. However, I think there should be some L4D1 compatability, wherein you can play the maps from the first one if you have it installed on your hard drive. I'm not sure on the legality of that and I just don't like the splintering of the community between the two games. Either way, Valve has a history of releasing gems, so I'm not worried.
