I'm not crying, but this game is a disappointment. What if it had had a real emotional story that sucked you in, and you cared who lived and died on the island?
We have a lot of other games that are considered "silly fun" with zombies and friends. I wanted something new. An emotional, moving zombie game. What an amazing experience it would have been, so I'm sure Dead Island is just fine, but it could have been perfection.
It depends on the game. With single player games, def no, but multiplayer it depends on my friends.
I went to the Left 4 Dead 2 midnight launch and by 1am my friends and I were all playing and we spent all night playing through every campaign. We ended up going to bed at 7am - after getting our avatar health packs. It was an epically fun night, and would have been missed if I had just gone to bed and was like "meh, I'll get in in the morning."

Cb- GameStop and EBgames are the same exact company / store. So, they do.
I think this article is.
I didn't get a virus? Maybe AVG was being over protective.
Every industry suffers from pre-owned sales. Quantic Dream is still around, so I'm betting they did just fine, especially since Heavy Rain did well anyways. They're just whining.
I doubt you will buy everything in life brand new. Every industry suffers from pre-owned sales, just no one has a crying fit like the gaming industry does.
It depends. GameStop offers a membership that if you buy it saves you additional 10% on preowned, and then there are coupons, pre-owned only sales..
You could end up saving a bunch more. If it's new at $60 and preowned at 54.99, that means anyone with an edge card pays 60-(5+5.50) so that's $10 off, and if you have a coupon on top of that, it could end up being a nice chunk.
I think it was silly of the writer to review based on a promised day 1 patch.. You review the copy you get. You can't review based on what the game MIGHT be in the future. The most you could do is go back and revisit your review score later if you want to factor in the patch.
Anyways, this whole mess is really disappointing. I expected better. I'll wait a while to pick this up.
That literally blew my mind.
Yeah.
Also, as a general rule to follow, DON'T PUT OFFENSIVE LINES OF CODE IN YOUR GAME. You might not remember to go back and fix it. .. Like this.
Srsly, this is the worst launch I have seen for any game .. ever. Uploading the wrong game to steam, needing a Day 1 patch to fix everything, and now .. this nonsense. All within a few days.
... When that single line of code is very offensive to certain people, yes - they need to apologize .. . . . . duh.
Or maybe they offended a bunch of people needlessly, and they should apologize.
I understand that guys are the majority on here, and the typical feminist has a bad rep, but they shouldn't have had that trait name in there, regardless. That would be like having the black guy having a trait that's a racial slur. It's obviously not necessary, and it's obviously offensive.
Well, didn't they just ship out a huge patch?
The bikini one was just unfortunate animation, the screamo zombie wasn't game breaking at all, and the odd standstill zombie won't break the game.
No problem, pal.
This would be ridic. They'd have to have two versions of every 360 game that comes out.
Yeah, there are people who live in rural areas who can't get decent internet unless they want to pay a ridiculous amount for satellite.
Anyone not connected to the internet is going to be pretty cranky.
Hey, as long as the multiplayer is all on the same disc - and I'm assuming it is - I couldn't care less about switching. :)It's really not a big deal.
Honestly, I need to play The Last Guardian before they announce a new PlayStation.
Are you serious? Let's look at the teaser trailer. Emotional, touching, sad, depressing - WITH ZOMBIES.
Seriously. Let's just go with the teaser trailer: Your family is getting killed by an overwhelming force that never stops, unless their brains are destroyed. It's terrifying. Your child got separated, and then bitten. You try to save her, but it's just too late, so you lay her down, and then she turns into a zombie. Yeah, she's dead, but she still looks ...
