    Sounds more like Enslaved the more I read details on it, and that's no bad thing!

    It sounds a lot different to me. Enslaved is good but it's very linear and derivative.

    From the sounds of it if the developer can deliver on the promises then it will be interesting. Sounds like there'll be survival elements.

    Sony fanboys seem to be jizzing in their pants about this one, just a little too much though, given all we've seen is a damn trailer and we all know how accurate they are, we're looking at you Dead Island, you pile of crap!


    Sony fanboys please note, there is some sarcasm and cynicism contained in the above paragraph.
    Please have fun figuring it out while you are awaiting a sense of humour, and some taste in games!! Waa-hahaha! ;)

    Hope it doesn't turn out to be like minding Ashley in Resi 4.

    I despise escort missions, but they actually managed to get some fun setpieces out of the Ashley escort missions in RE4. Still, when it comes to AI companions, ICO remains the definitive example, and the shining light all others should follow.

    whats the odds theres a "protect the girl with a sniper rifle from afar while she tries to unlock/open/turn/pull/push some device while surrounded by things that want to eat her face" sequence.

    While i agree that Dead Island was nothing like the trailer (but lets be fair, alot of games do that!), it was still one of the best Zombie games i've played (L4D1&2 just are not great single player games).


  • Registered Users Posts: 81,853 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    So its another zombie game?

    I liked this better when I thought it was about ants.

    so damn agree. that fliping dead island trailer was savage, but then when i sow it being like some sort of mmorpg i had an epic /facepalm... and here i was expecting a serious zombie game :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,447 ✭✭✭richymcdermott


    But people arent getting excited cause of the trailer alone the fact that naughty dog are making it you know what to expect.
    difference between this and a zombie game like dead island,l4d and dead rising is those games are just bout killing zombies while this will be more story driven cinematic experience involving the two characters than just a mind nubbing kill zombie here , there and everywhere sort of game

    Lets hope for the best, but i am really tired if getting fooled by cinematic trailers.


    In game footage or GTFO

    Give them time! I have never bought a game based solely on its cinematic trailer,I just look on it as a means of the company getting the idea out there.

    I will only judge this game when any substantial details about how it plays are released, then watch actual gameplay footage of it.

    For now I am looking forward to what possibly could be something refreshing and new in this genre. Hopefully it will, and until I have reason to think otherwise I will be happy to look forward to this!

  • Registered Users Posts: 29,519 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    TBH trailer wasn't even that great. It's the premise of the game is what makes it sound interesting.

    Dead Island had one of the best trailers ever and the game itself was one of my faves this year. I can understand why people got upset but it was a cinematic trailer, that was all.

    Plus if you are gonna compare games, I think the closest one will be I Am Alive but I feel that's gonna be a bit poor but will wait and see.

    I bet you enjoyed that one Retr0gamer.

    So "personal abuse" is not acceptable but widespread offence is? fair play to ye!

    Attack the post, not the poster.
    Nobody reported the other post, not even mystic86.

    Mystic86 should learn to ignore obvious trolls...or report them.

    The moderators weren't long catching on to Mystic86's post but did nothing about the original post he was replying to - does a post have to be reported before a moderator can act on it? Shouldn't be the case if it is. Must not be if Mystic86 got banned, unless somebody reported it...?

    You should have gone for '69'.

    It's one better, innit?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5 68


    Oh look, CiDeRmAn is a mod for arcade and retro

    oh look retr0gamer didn't take action against CiDeRmAn for his post but banned mystic86 for calling CiDeRmAn a name....


    hmmmm

    No, the other post was an obvious troll posting to get a reaction.

    You mystic86 took the bait.

    If you have a problem with a post, report it.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,864 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Somebody has got themselves permabanned and a nice ban extension.

    Re-register again and I'll permaban.

    Also as has been said to you twice already on two seperate occasions, attack the post not the poster. Just because someone doesn't agree with you doesn't give you the right to insult them. Read the charter and boards.ie's terms and conditions, the parts you broke will be in there.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 50,864 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Also another note. If you are trying to convince the moderator that you haven't re-registered under a different account, don't send a private message discussing a PM you got from the wrong account. Another tip is not bother because it's easy enough to find out anyway.

    Could ya not have let the post as was? Bugging me as to what was said now!!! It could be a warning to future poster-attackers!!! :D
