Playing One Hour of Dead Island

[Thassodar]

You've given me an idea......pizza + sex + while playing a zombie game = change my diaper

How would you-
But pizza might get-
So many moans at once-

I MUST DO THIS

Actually there is a common mistake and i made it not long ago as well regarding Left 4 Dead.
Even though we call them "zombies", they in fact aren't. They are "the infected".
If you have watched movie 28 days later, Left 4 Dead thing is very similar. Ppl have this virus that makes them crazy. That's why they aren't decomposing, rotting zombies but "perfectly" "normal" humans.

So it all depends on the story of the Dead Island. If dead corpses start to walk around then yes, there will be some rotten flesh. But if there is just an infection like 28 days later or Left 4 Dead, then they will be still normal humans, just enraged.

I know what your saying but its a cop-out. Gimme some proper zombies.....oh and 28 days later sucked.

.oh and 28 days later sucked.

I can now disregard your opinion on this game.

28 days was weak. Check out "Dead Set" or "The Zombie Diaries" for some awesome British zombie flicks. The Brits got it better then us latley.

I enjoyed it. Its slow paced and not big budget but its got the "feel" of a good zombie flick. You know that "pointless" feeling? No use in fighting kinda thing. Dead Set was great however.

28 days later & 28 weeks later are two of my favorite movies.

 

[RejZoR]

28 days later was one of the best movies, especially since it was launched with very little media boom and with rather small budget. And because it was happening in UK and not stereotypical New York, LA or some other US location where shit always hits the fan.

Meh. Its had kiddie gore. Ive seen episodes of iCarly that were more frightening.

The fact that society has degraded to a point where iCarly even exists, is more frightening than any hypothetical zombie invasion.

 

[digibucc]

not brit but an (imo) really good and underrated romero flick is
Survival of the Dead so un-campy. no - "why would you do that moments".
romero done right,

right before that is land of the dead:road to fiddler's green

which are all preceded by my favorite recent romero zombie flick 2004 DotD...

walking dead is a decent show, but more drama than zombie,

i didn't get into the old zombie flicks save for one or to watch throughs of the original romero trilogy.

"CHOOOKKEEE ONN EMM!!!" (that scene showed what zombie gore can be)

Gameplay.

Looks fun.

Gore was never the point of 28 days later. In fact gore is the cheapest way to make a horror movie. Just throw in some blood and guts and call it a day. Every noob can do that. 28 days later was different just like it was original Resident Evil movie which was later turned into anime like fighting nonsense. Good example was F.E.A.R. 1. I still remember the beginning of it where you walk through a corridor, you get static in your com set, music changes and then Alma levitates in front of you through the corridor. Considering i was playing it in pitch dark at around midnight, i wasn't scared but i always get that disturbing feeling in my guts when such stuff happens. And this was so special about it. Nothing really happened. Or that service tunnel where Alma is crawling to you, you panic and then she disappears in a cloud of steam. Pr flashbacks with bloody corridors and Alma walking on a ceiling. Nothing ever happens in such situations but you still get that disturbing feeling. That's why you honor developers who aren't just throwing stuff "in your face" but they do it in a tricky way.

Garbage. I want "CHOKE ON IT" scenes. People getting ripped apart in various ways. Thats the whole point of zombie flicks. I don't wanna think. I don't care about the people. I want mayhem. What you are saying is like "I watch Godzilla for the character development". Thats just gay.

 

[RejZoR]

I don't like this because it's ridiculously overdone. Often zombies decapitate and dismember humans like a child tearing through a chocolate cake. Stupid. I'm often sitting in front of a screen saying "ok..." to myself. Such stuff belongs into bad B rated zombie movies...

This game gets TheMailMan's seal of disapproval. L4D Purist.

Most things seem to get the MM seal of disapproval, I think he is really a woman masquerading as a man on TPU, surely no man can moan as much.......

OT I like the look of this, though I have a feeling it will be nowhere as good as some of the trailers have made it out to be and will be disappointing.

And when I'm right I get called a troll.

Odly the same thing happens when you're just trolling.

I can I can moan about various things all day long Currently i have to get a daily dosage of Crysis 2 complaints on MyCrysis. And my blog. I'll eventually find something else

Legitimate complaints about Crysis 2 being complete garbage don't count.

Seriously dude, wait until it's released before passing such judgement on something. You're starting to sound ridiculous and caught up in an opinion before there's any kind of finished product.

 

[cadaveca]

It's sounding like he's a Zombie himself, and the infection is affecting his mental capacity.

Perhaps Mailman is the start new pro-Zombie4Life advocacy group?

 

[erocker]

Yes, he needs all the attention he can get. See! See how this thread is turning into the topic of TheMailMan himself. Truly a high level troll. Let's not talk about MM. How about we just ignore his posts all together. It may be an impossible task but we should really try.
