Dead Island
« on: February 18, 2011, 08:04:06 pm »
Upcoming zombie game...

I can't really comment on the game or its ideas, but I can say this; This is the best game trailer I've ever seen.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Old41bsSXU

Enjoy.

Game's coming out and the four pack goes for around 40 dollars a copy. A bit more most likely, but should be around a 20% discount.

Here's a list of people interested in the four pack to get the discount:

-Soulwynd (probably near release if they show more gameplay clips)
-Cthulhu
-lordcooper (same conditions as myself)

If anyone else is interested, just post and I will add here. Ps, one per each four must be willing to fork 150 bucks on steam and then receive individual payments through paypal and handle out the games accordingly.


20 minutes of gameplay:

Yeah, the trailer is recieveing high praise over the entire internet.
And it is awesome, i especially like the music, if the games is as half as awesome as the trailer then it's gonna be great, and all things indicate it will be.For once a bit more realistic combat with scarce ammo and weapon damage, rpg progression and whatnot really make this sound awesome

Hey, that reminds me of that one game...

Erm, it seems to have had zombies, and you woke up next to a dead National Guardsman or something...
What was it called? It just feel similar. And there were these HUGE flesh-monster things that would eat your car.

My only issue with this trailer is they OBVIOUSLY animated it backwards instead of animating it forwards and then rewinding it. Dx

It's awesome other than that but once you look at the animations and realise how the majority of them look line forward animations it kinda... Ruins it. :(

I think you mean Dead Rush, a game that sadly never got made.
I anticipated that like crazy when I heard about it however many years ag, and nearly died when it was put away forever.
This, however, looks very promising.

Looks like the zombies in this game aren't actually "Dead".  Not that people even bother differentiating between undead and infected psychopaths in games these days.  Neat trailer though.  I feel sorry for Australia.

Awsome trailer but honestly the game isn't looking to be that good.

The trailer is just pure hype though since the actual game is nothing like that trailer.

Heck a game where you fight zombies on an island that used to be a tourist area where you get to see the tragic outcome of often good and happy people could make a good game. Too bad this isn't one of those games.

Hm. Some of the zombies in this game actually look like they were recently normal humans.  I wonder what the reaction to that will be.

It depends entirely on the availability of a Chainsaw.
