Dead Island

Don't get me wrong hacking the undead to bits is undeniably fun however the game is hindered by various factors. First off when on the island the game is a joy to explore yet upon entering the city the game becomes a bit of a grind and boring. The game suffers from various hit detection problems for instance an enemy was stood in front of me and I was striking them with my machete and it was going through him with there being no response to this. However it's fun to explore and to play.

Dead Island is a fun game I never played riptide all i know it is very similar dead island has good mechanics amazing graphics and a decent story I give dead island a B

In my opinion the people behind Dead Island get what a zombie game is really about. It is about hope, desperation & the willingness to fight on when all you have left is your life and that is all you can expect to get. The fight for survival brings out the best and worst in people. After playing through the whole game I can tell that this game was made by true zombie fans, where a game like Left 4 Dead was made by people who just like shooting a bunch of things (not that is a bad thing). My only problem is that I wish they had focused more on the single player aspect then the CO-OP.

Other then I will say is that this a great game for any true zombie fan and I hope there is a Dead Island 2.

First-person games have never appealed to me, but when I played this game, I have to say I was REALLY impressed! Being able to modify weapons to make a newer and more powerful weapon, finding different special items to add to weapons or to trade for money to help in this task..... The one downer I noticed was that a lot of zombies seem to repeat themselves in different levels of the game. But fighting different zombies and getting decent amounts of rewards from each is a great addition! I also appreciate the fact the different playable characters had different strengths and abilities. Great stories from each, as well. I am REALLY looking forward to getting my hands on the sequel!

This game to me is just great.

It has the same set up as games such as GTA or Red Dead. Open roam if you want and main quest and all kinds of side quest. The graphics are fine for me, I have heard some people complain about them but meh, some people gotta find errors in everything. Graphics good, weapons fun, story fun, and oh, did i mention the zombies?! The zombies are great so far, i have not beat the game but from where i have gotten they range from slow easy kills to not so slow and not so easy. Very fun to fight them. Very graphic. Exactly what i want from a zombie game.

The weapons are fun, customizing is amazing.

This game combines the styles of GTA with the weapon customizing of Diablo and the survival of Resident evil. Basically someone took some of the best games made, put them in a pot of awesome and cooked up Dead Island.

Don't think about it, go get this game. Unless you are "sensitive" to violence and gore and language, in which case I'm sure there will be another mario coming out soon.
