Dead Island Trailer

Its not often i say nice things about well anything tbh. Limbo was the last time i looked at a game and thought wow just wow. no other words were needed it was just so unique and original and fucking Bleak. I've heard about the Dead Island trailer and never gave it much though till i watched it. Whilst it has no bearing what so ever on the game which may or may not be any good but as a piece of cinema its pretty amazing and another watershed moment in the short life of our little hobby.
Developers are a competetive bunch this will spur them on to out do, out think and out produce this short trailer. Sometimes the act is less than the inspiration it provides. I bet you if this was something Spielberg or Cameron had produced the world would be sucking its own blood through a straw and throwing all sorts of accolades at it.

Any how take a peek and for those who haven't seen it. WOW will suffice

Watch in HD

Limbo was awesome, loved the art direction and the spider near the start was extremely creepy!

Yeah I saw this trailer the other day Joe... I looooove zombie stuff and to be honest this looks right up my street, BUT it's Kinect isn't it? How good can it be with a glorified webcam being thr driving force behind it... or am I the only person who thinks Kinect is pants? :P

great trailer, really clever. bit depressing right enough, if there is a zombie apocalypse id like it to be more cheesy-funny-ironic than sad-children-zombie-death.

on a side note, bikini-clad zombie would get it

Y'know Gary just when I think you can't get any worse, you surprise me and lower the tone just that little bit futher :P

That is the best game trailer I've ever seen. Awsome.

I agree, just watched it and i found it a bit close to the knuckle.

Good trailer. Not sure about the game though they cover it extensively in the latest 360gamer. In that it just looks like a knock off of Dead Rising 2. Which is a game I didn't enjoy never bothered with the sequel for that reason.

I think I'll stick to Left 4 Dead and Dead Space for my necrotic lifeform killing.

very emotive trailer..

Very much like Momento in the chronological order placing...

But theres trailers, and theres games.. Sure, I can watch the trailer and think that looks great, but gameplay? itll be nothing like that, which means the trailer does little to move boxes off shelves (unless there are still people who buy games based solely on box art or from a trailer)

Could well turn out to be a game version of Avatar, looks great in trailer, shitty awful story in film.
