CVG:Riptide's predecessor was a ropey game and not much has changed. During my hands-on session I played as Purna, the mouthy security professional with the pen-up-nose Australian accent. As with Dead Island, the game sticks you on an open tropical island and tasks you with surviving and escaping. You pick up missions, level-up, upgrade weapons, and brain zombies. Neither the environment nor what you're doing in it has changed since Dead Island, and the game makes no apologies about that.

Carlos writes "We’re back once more to take a look back into the history of Xbox to unearth games that released many years ago, allowing us to celebrate their anniversary. This time around the game we’re looking at is Dead Island: Riptide."

Utomik - the “unlimited play” monthly subscription gaming service - expands its games library with several games from publisher Deep Silver, including Dead Island Riptide and Metro 2033 Redux with many more.

Microsoft is ending June with a bang, a lot of games are going on sale this week. But only if you have an active Xbox Live Gold membership.
This is not good news. Ill hold my judgement.
