If you liked dead island youll love this game. Otherwise it is just your preference.

This is the dilemna I'm having - I never played Dead Island.

Picked this up yesterday to play with some non destiny friends (yes they do exist!). First impression is WOW TERRIBLE VOICE ACTING AND CHARACTER VISUALS. Once you get past this fact its a pretty cool game. I played about 30 mins solo doing the tutorial and just checking out things. Game controls are a nice change from the traditional. Running and jumping actually requires you to look where you want to go. IE you cant just jump and grab a ledge you have to be looking at it. Combat is ok, takes alot to kill some brain dead zombies. But you have skills to level so it gets easier with time. Main selling point for me was the Co-op. Way better than dead island. Graphics are great. No connectivity issues so far. in game chat works well. Still get progress.

If you liked dead island youll love this game. Otherwise it is just your preference. I would give this game a 7/10 based on my little gameplay.

Dead island was full of fun references... (reply)

Glad to see that in a darker game, Techland hasn't lost their sense of humor. :)

I really want to pick this game up, and reviews are looking positive. Then again, Dead Island had mediocre/bad reviews and I still had a blast with that, so this is looking more and more like a definite buy for me...

Neat. (reply)

Looks like a game that came out yesterday has an easter egg in it based on the Skywatch loot cave in Destiny.
