Dead Island: First Thoughts
Sun, palm trees, bathing suits, alcohol, and zombies always make a good vacation setting. Now, get a crowbar and turn the beaches red with blood spilt for the undead. Dead Island brings back those original roaming zombies that stand mostly stationary until a hammer finds their head. In essence, this game is the result of Just Cause 2 and Left 4 Dead having a child. Dead Island has the exploration of JC2 and the zombie aspect from L4D. Again, co-op is where the best play experience resides. The island tends to get a little lonely surrounded by characters have who nothing more to do than to make the player their patsy. So grab a friend along with a paddle with nails in it and whack away.
