Dead Island – A First Person Kill Fest. You get to start your Kill Fest with Either Sam B – The Brother, Xion Mei – Jackie Chans Sister, Logan – Drunk punk White guy and finally Purna – Some kinda Leader. Each have there own Weapon Speciality. I decided to go with The Brother.
First time in I get out of the Hotel into the beach area and killed a few Walkers then ran into my first Thug oh dear. I ran straight in twatted him in the face with my brand new Unreliable Crowbar and he threw my ass 4 meters back on my ass and started his attack on me. after quickly learning the strategy to killing this behemoth I eventually broke both of his arms and eventually killed him, Great animation when you break the zombies arms they just dangle there like theres a bag of snooker balls in his arms great stuff.
Completed loads of side quests great first day…. what happend next only effects PS3 cause appartently PC & Xbox 360 have enough sense to make a manual save option. I looked for a save function couldnt find one so guessed the Checkpoint messages that kept coming up were a sort of Auto saving, Next day Load up my account and boom I’m back to about the beginning lost all my exp and lvl’s and nifty weapons. (BAD) quite a big dam error on the developers part, But all this can be resolved by just going online. So heres my heads up if you want this game and play PS3 you will need a online connection or your going to have a bad time.
Onto the good aspects. I’m very happy to say the Detail in gore in this Game is much higher than alot of games I’ve seen, you are litterally able to chop every limb off zombies or humans in game. I was very pleased when I strolled up to a zombie running at me full pelt and with a gentle tap of the R1 his head rolled miles away. the developers actually took into account the speed it was running at me into account!! thats the kinda detail Games these days need, after its head was severed, I went on to remove the already dead zombies arms and legs with much delight. blood was spirting everywhere. Game developers did an amazing job on detail but I feel it could have gone further I wanna see Bone I wanna see intestines I want it to be acurate If i slash a katana at a zombies chest/rib area, I wanna see him effected by the blow i’ve dealt not just get back up as if i gave him a gentle tap on the back.
I almost considered this a bad game at the beginning only cause of the lack of save function on the PS3 but Dead Islands Game play is pleasant and you’ll soon forget there was even a problem in the first place, Storyline is alright and graphic & gore has my thumbs up, its a game you should definetly consider buying.
We want MORE DETAILED GORE!!! More ways of developing weapons & When leveling up more skills to level up. Increase HP Increase Stamina. Get to it Dead Island Crew.
Overall I rate this 7/10
I sure as hell will be buying it.
