I'd rather buy L4D1. It's at full price right now!!!

I've played a ton of both starting with the first game when it initially came out and L4D2 is far superior in just about every respect. The only thing that the first game did better (or differently) is that the theme and overall feel was more grim, largely due to a different color palette and all night campaigns. That's why a handful of people seem to be hanging on to their nostalgia of it. Given that all of the campaigns from L4D1 have been ported over to L4D2, there is really not much reason to play the first one other than for the nostalgia factor. It's also worth noting that many community map-makers release their campaigns only for L4D2. The Dark Parish addon campaign (a modified night-time version of the Parish) is a great example of just how good night campaigns can be in L4D2.

Well, L4D1 has more serious-horror theme, L4D2 has more comedy-horror theme (Shaun of the Dead, Zombieland). And even L4D1 campies feel different played in L4D2 - for example, Jockey is not only a one hard-to-use useful infected, he's also quite a joker.
Also, L4D2 akimbo pistols are so totally useless.

For what it's worth, my perspective is mostly from that of Expert Realism Co-op play. I used to play some Versus but the community is way too toxic and it's just not enjoyable -- not for public games anyway. Friends-only games are definitely the way to go with Versus.
As far as dual pistols are concerned they are grossly underused because the Magnum is so damn overpowered. They are far from useless and are actually pretty decent if you have a fast finger and can get good with them.

I wonder if there are any other hidden free games today :3

I hate this stupid country! A friend notified me of this free L4D2 thing and I got it right away before it was here/before steam was unusable... so I didn't know about this trick. And now of course I have the fucked up bullshit cut version and there is no way to ever change it.
