Dead Island Tragedy Hits Paradise Trailer

I just hope it's not just another shoot-em-up Zombie game. Those are so 2010.

Here's the important question... Who is this Peggy? She sure does advertise herself as being 18 a lot...
 
looks like JC2 with a few tree mods and some zombies, minus bunch of cool stuff.
 
I agree, looks somewhat like JC2 and Left4Dead smooshed together.

Do I get a weapon, or sunscreen or both?:eek:
 
If the game thing doesn't work out for them, they are going to be fine if they just contract out their trailer making expertise. Good cinema just for a trailer.
 
That trailer sucked what are you talking about? I was bored out of my tears. The first one was good though.
 
It's a heavy focus on melee. You can make your own weapons, said to be 1000s. There are guns but ammo will be rare. There are some RPG elements. You can level up. When your weapons hit, a damage number pops out of them like Borderlands. It's open world where you get missions.

So to me it sounds like a cross between L4D2 and Borderlands, maybe a touch of Dead Rising.

If done right this game will be very fun!
 
Kinda boring, but I'm looking forward to some gameplay trailers. If those look promising, I'm buying on day 1.
 
Looks interesting. As Steve said. Even if the games sucks. They should be able to hire them selves out just to make trailers. They do seem to be very very good at that and no not as good as the first one but I don't see how they could of topped it.

From what I've read, it's more fpm (first person melee). Apparently bullets/guns are hard to come by .. which would make sense, you are on an island and all.
 
I'm curious to see how the tone of this game turns out. Judging by the trailers it would appear to have a very realistic, emotional, and depressing tone overall, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it having a goofy Dead Rising-like flair once we actually get to play it (which would be disappointing in my eyes.)

I am hoping for the same thing. We already have a Dead Rising; it would be nice to get something different. The first trailer evoked strong emotional response, and it would be nice to see the entire game do the same thing.
 
Liked the first trailer better. It was epic. I did like the hanged guy as the "I" though at the last of this one.
 
This game looks like ass so far. The first trailer was insultingly cheap pathos "oh noes, dead childrens :eek:" when you probably wont get to kill children in the full game :(, the graphics look ok for a 2006 game*, but it doesn't seem like its going to have much of a story, as the makers couldn't find enough worthwhile material to fill a trailer, either time, and would appear to suck at conveying non ovious feelings.

This wasn't even attempted to be hidden...nor is it far in the background...
 
I think I may be burnt out on this kind of game. I just don't see it offerering anything new that I haven't seen or done before. Hopefully there will be a demo or something.
 
Finally, after years of waiting...Zombies in Paradise. I can't believe it. It's all I've dreamed about...



















NOT
 
Isn't this just another first person action game?

The whole zombie thing just isn't suited to a first person action game. The zombie thing isn't about cutting a bunch of zombies apart. You can do that type of game we any antagonist.

Where the zombie movie/game/book shines is not in the action, but in the period between the fighting. It's about people scared and hiding from a rampaging horde and dealing with their own internal and interpersonal problems when faced with the end of the world.

It's about struggling just to survive.

We'll the image you posted looks like one of the screenshots from way back in 2007/208 when the game was first made to be fair. Actually look at the current pics from this year 2011, looks a lot better. Jeesh people here are so quick to judge these days.

The stuff I saw at IGN looked a lot better than that image.
