Dead Island

Re: Dead Island

Saw the trailer a while back. Looked great.

Not really into the whole zombie thing although I do like playing them from time to time but, this sounds like this could be a really intense strategy game so this could be right up my alley. The only thing I don't like are exploding zombies, boss zombies are ok by me but, leave the exploding zombies behind in Black Ops.

Edit: And agreed Dakken. That is why I have skipped most zombie games.

Re: Dead Island

That actually looks pretty cool. I like the 'realistic' approach to the combat.

Re: Dead Island

Looks nothing like the trailer and reminds me of L4D with less action. Still would rather this game be 3rd person.

The whole zombie thing is played to me.

Re: Dead Island

i was watching a trailer where it said the game was gonna focus mostly on hand to hand melee which is kinda disappointing since the sweetest thing you can do is kill a zombie with a headshot, other than that the game looks good.

Re: Dead Island

Seems as if this would be a lot better without stamina and in 3rd person.

Re: Dead Island

Gameplay looked bad to me. Was that a leg kicking? Looked like all of a sudden you're Mr. Fantastic and your rubber leg is kicking away zombies.

Little sick of the zombie games, and Left 4 Dead has done this already and looks like they've done it better.

Already have my copy preordered.

Re: Dead Island

I was really interested in this until I saw a playthrough.

Seems to just be a typical PC-esque FPS with zombies. The trailer really had my intrigued too.

Not sure that requires a sad face.

I LOVE the fact that you don't get a bunch of guns and just rambo your way out. It's like Left 4 Dead meets Dead Rising.

Day 1 purchase.

the only thing that bugs me is that you need money to create stuff on a work bench....WHO IS TAKING THE MONEY?

Re: Dead Island

Looked good until I saw it was First Person. Getting really tired of the First Person game, I think this would have been better off as a 3rd Person. I probably won't be playing it.
