Dead Island

[MrGreed]

Dead Island is a game where you're in a plane and it crashes on an island....
At first it seems like a very luxurious island with bars and hotels and all that. Until you meet the zombies of course...

The physics in this game sounds really cool

There's -Liquid
-Gas
-Electricity
-And of course everybody's favorite: Ragdoll

At least that's what they said. Yeah and they have also got this multilayer damage system or something, I think it means that it has fully destructible heads... I'm not sure. But you can see for yourself in the media section in the Dead Island website (http://deadislandgame.com/community/index.php?go=overview). You should check out the features list (http://deadislandgame.com/community/index.php?go=overview) too

It will be released in 2008 for Xbox 360 and PC

Dead Island is developed by Techland - game developers from Poland (my country). They already made some games:
- FIM speedway GP
- Chrome
- Chrome SpecForce
- Xpand Rally
- GTI Racing
- FIM speedway GP2
- Call of Juarez
- Xpand Rally Xtreme
I played all these games except FIM speedway GP and I see that their games becomes better and better...
Now they are working on Dead Island, Warhound and Chrome 2.
Dead Island seems to be most interesting one.

This thread only depresses me further, because know I'm reminded i have to wait another year before this comes out.

[Cries]

It's a good thing i'm getting a 360 for chrismas!(Or at least, i hope i am.)

[Relys]

Thank god, it's not a 360 exclusive!

[Killa]

Thank god, it's not a 360 exclusive!

This is allmost as good as when they....Uhhh...Invented COOKIES!!!!Oh dear god, what've I DONE?!?!

[edthefirst]

Wow, this looks really good. I hope it plays as good as it sounds.

yah, me too!

Already I have some fiendish traps in mind for them zombies. Damn it, I have to wait a year to execute them... is there destructible foliage? That'd give me a whole new level of pain execution.

[Virtue]

Umm... edthefirst... did you change the electricity part of your sig? Cause I remember that you used to generate 4% less than the average person...

Well, this game looks cool, but you aren't surprised by the zombies because, well, it's called dead island. It's like reading a book whose cover spoils the ending. Or watching a movie preview that shows the dead antagonist. Too revealing.

[Xerxes]

Like watching the movie Spiderman 3 after watching the trailers... "HUGE shocker! Marko Flint killed your uncle! Why is no one in the theater surprised...? Well, um... the suit is evil! Wait a minute, instead of watching the movie, why don't you just go pick up the Spiderman vs. Venom saga at Barnes & Noble? Wait, come back! I didn't mean it!"

Anyway, zombies. Also, the layered system is a good idea for realistic wounds... *rushes off to the Zombie Apocolypse thread*

[Lee Buslett]

pain skins are in this game

[Wetto]

This could be absolutely pants shittingly great, or a major disappointment considering that they made "call of juarez" I'm leaning more to the latter. :(

coj was awesome

[juju02]

meh, it was okay../

[AquaGeneral]

Call Of Juarez was fun but the platforming aspect was bad.

Dead Island looks fun, from what I have seen the animations look off but hopfully they will be fixed by the release.

I completely agree, although I did like being able to pick random useless stuff up

BTW AquaGeneral you said Dead Rising not Dead Island

[AquaGeneral]

BTW AquaGeneral you said Dead Rising not Dead Island

Lol, just fixed it up just then.

Hopfully it is somewhat like Dead Rising with the melee weapons.

Not powerful enough :rolleyes:

what? not power full enough? look what wii did to RE4 it totally redid the controls and also added all the extras in the ps2 vers

He ment that it doesn't have the compacity to handle the physics.Name one wii game that has ragdoll, fully destructable objects, deformable cars(Excludeing excite truck), or water.

[TheSloth]

This is now my most anticipated PC game. I have high hopes for it. Call of Juarez was a funny one, I couldn't be bothered finishing that game since I hated the Billy levels. The Reverend levels were damn awesome though. I'll have to upgrade my PC for this one so I can get it as soon as it comes out.

[Relys]

yah, me too!

So am I (Probably).

[edthefirst]

Umm... edthefirst... did you change the electricity part of your sig? Cause I remember that you used to generate 4% less than the average person...

It was actually 5% less, but I had only done it for 15 seconds and had forgotten to multiply by 4 to make it a full minute. Then I redid it and turned out I was putting out a lot more than at first.

This could be absolutely pants shittingly great, or a major disappointment considering that they made "call of juarez" I'm leaning more to the latter. :(Dead Island is using new version of Chrome Engine.
