... based on a trailer, would you?

QuoteDead Island is an open world title taking place on a tropical island overrun with Zeds. It features 4-player drop-in/out co-op with almost everything you see being usable as a melee weapon in the game. The game is billed as a FPS with RPG elements. It's expected release is some time in 2011.

I'm in :D

OldBloke have you tried Borderlands?

Sounds like a similar FPS RPG game described.

No. I watched Frenzy play it and it didn't grab me to be honest.

Hell of a trailer. If they do games as well as they do cinematics then they've got a sale. I'll wait till I see some gameplay though.

RPS described it as being "Bleak like your puppy dying of tiredness is bleak".

I hope the game can match the awesomeness of the trailer, but it's a big ask!

Hmm it does look quite good doesn't it? 4-player co-op should be fun I jsut hope that you can run it as a local server like with Borderlands.
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.
