| ~ Coach about Jimmy Gibbs Jr. |
James "Jimmy" Samuel Gibbs, Jr. is an uncommon infected and a minor antagonist that appears in Left 4 Dead 2.
Biography[]
Jimmy Gibbs Junior was once a "famous" race car driver from the Southern United States, writer of at least one autobiography called SPEED, and considered an idol in the eyes of Ellis and Coach. The Survivors steal his stock racing car to escape the Liberty Mall at the end of the game's first sequel campaign, Dead Center. He is dressed in his racing suit and only spawns in the Atrium (the map in the campaign's last chapter), with only the possibility of spawning in at every 15 days. Coach considers him to be "as famous as Elvis or the president".
He is mentioned by the Survivors briefly, saying things such as "If we see him, someone else is going to have to kill him". If Ellis spots the zombified Gibbs, he will exclaim a devastated reaction. Nick makes a point of cursing Jimmy Gibbs Jr's name regularly, normally when something goes wrong with his car. This may be another play on the remake of the movie Dawn of the Dead, where the Survivors could see Infected versions of famous people that they knew from the mall.
He has 3000 HP (50 HP on Easy), no detachable limbs, and is fireproof (thanks to his racing suit). He can also blind players with motor oil (similar to the Mudmen's dirt splatter effect) and is not drawn to Pipe bombs nor Bile bombs (if it doesn't hit anything, similar to the Construction Workers). His race car was the Survivor's primary focus in escaping the mall, where they decided to gas it up before driving their way to New Orleans.
Trivia[]
- Despite his high amount of HP, he can be instantly killed by any melee weapon, Magnum pistol, any sniper rifle, granate launcher, weapons equipped with Explosive Ammunition, turrets and pipe bombs explosion.
- He is the rarest Uncommon Infected to spawn, having only a 33% chance of spawning in the Atrium finale every 15 days.
- On his shoulder, he has the word "GOODBYE," a parody to the tire company Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, a well known supplier and participant in many forms of motorsport.
- When Jimmy fights another common, it's noticeable that besides dealing damage, he can also shove the infected, just like the survivors.
