If you are one of the many people who have pre-ordered Left 4 Dead 2 or plan on buying it before the day is through, you're probably curious as to when exactly the game will be unlocked. Valve has announced that for those who have preloaded the L4D2 files, the game goes live sometime today. Since Valve's servers will unlock it at all at once, the exact time will vary based on your time zone.

BRAINZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!

I assume you mean 12AM not PM, as in midnight, for the Eastern release time.

Yes, thank you. It's been corrected.
