This sounds pretty cool, do they have a release date in mind? And is it for consoles? Sorry if this was already said, I'm a little bit slow.

Why is there an insane asylum on a resort, though?
[QUOTE=evilweazel;28116726]Why is there an insane asylum on a resort, though?[/QUOTE] Maybe it's like a resort city?
[QUOTE=evilweazel;28116726]Why is there an insane asylum on a resort, though?[/QUOTE]
If you guys read the official website, the resort is just a part of the island. There is the resort, the island capital and towns.
[quote=Dead Island Website]The Island of Banoi
Live life wild but lighthearted - welcome to Banoi...
Be caressed by the most delightful, varied, untamed and innocent landscapes - you might have imagined when dreaming of paradise. Banoi is the magnificent heart of the Papua New Guinean islands - located south of the equator, north of Australia.
Its pulsating tropical beauty offers many different natural wonders: from verdant rainforests - swathing volcanic mountains - to untouched coral atolls teeming with white, white beaches.
The crystal clear, warm sea with its intact underwater wildlife surrounds Banoi and invites to take fascinating diving excursions. Rugged mountain terrains and deep cave systems present wonderful opportunities for walkers, cavers and climbers. Rare species of birds, butterflies and fishes accompany the adventurous guests while canoeing, rafting and fishing. Or while enjoying the luxury of having time - sunbathing in one of the countless bays.
Though Banoi is a pristine spot - it also has a capital called Moresby with many settlements. The 21st century has reached the island - but it's a harmonic progress that respects the island's nature and population.
Most of the inhabitants live in the highlands or the capital. They are proud of their cultural heritage, their craftsmanship and their art. The Banoi arts are world-famous - due to their multi-faced variety - reflecting the influences of many different tribes.
The perfect travel season to visit this southern equatorial adventureland is from April to October. Though Banoi has a tropical climate, the highland's temperatures are distinctly "cool". The rainy season runs from about December to March - so come and to see the blossoming beauty of our Papua New Guinean island in spring and summer.
Banoi is paradise's ambassador on earth - and always worth visiting...[/quote]
[QUOTE=CptVague;28112456]Boo hoo, someone is expressing an opinion contrary to mine! I'll buy the game if it's innovative, but you're blind if you don't think there has been a glut of zombie games in the past couple of years.[/QUOTE]
Last 5 years or so:
1. Dead Rising
2. Left 4 Dead
3. Resident Evil 5 (kinda)
4. Left 4 Dead 2
5. Dead Rising 2
6. This
So 5-8 zombie games is too many? Why are you bitching about this and not the influx of First Person Shooters?

Makes me picture Just Cause 2 with zombies
[QUOTE=evilweazel;28116726]Why is there an insane asylum on a resort, though?[/QUOTE]
There isn't, they're probably transporting a highly dangerous criminal somewhere from the island. And then zombies came.
Anyone else listening to the trailer music over and over?
Youtube is filled with "edited" original trailers only and it's pissing me off, holy shit are people that retarded.
[QUOTE=evilweazel;28116726]Why is there an insane asylum on a resort, though?[/QUOTE]
He could've been one of the first infected, and they tried padding him up like an insane person before they knew what was really going on.

The t-shirt and shorts got me.[/QUOTE]
I'd be surprised if Logan isn't the dad.

Well there's yer problem...
You are forgetting Crysis
[QUOTE=Henry Townshend;28117687]You are forgetting Crysis[/QUOTE]
Sorry, but what are you referring to?
[QUOTE=evilweazel;28116726]Why is there an insane asylum on a resort, though?[/QUOTE]
I agree with the others that this was possibly a criminal. If you look to the right, in the background, you see two officers with kevlar, and a large armored van. I'd like to know how they ended up like that though...
[QUOTE=Henry Townshend;28117687]You are forgetting Crysis[/QUOTE]
?
[QUOTE]I'd be surprised if Logan isn't the dad.[/QUOTE]
I dont think it is, we got 2 women, the black guy and the mystery white guy. One screenshot shows the white guys arms, his left arm has a tattoo. Watch the trailer, the dad does not.
As long as it's just a large person turned zombie and not a mutant, I'm happy.

All series games. I would complain more about pointless sequels like Two worlds 2 than sequels to zombie games.

Good point. It's probably not the dad. That would be cool if it was. But how do you know that Sam-B is black?
Look at the picture of the black guy, it has Sam-B on his back. :D

Oh wow. I didn't see that. Good catch! :v:
[editline]17th February 2011[/editline]
Does anyone have any corrections for the OP? Or anything that they want fixed? Or an article/video that they want linked?
I'm just going to continue my detective work, I can be the little helper on info if you want. I tend to scavenge for info on games I want.

Great! Thanks! I've been reading a lot of previews and articles to see if they're worthy of a summary in the OP.
[QUOTE=Henry Townshend;28117687]You are forgetting Crysis[/QUOTE]
Wow talk about late reply. Was referring to this;
[QUOTE=usaokay;28116642]Shame that we cannot create our own survivor. I want to be the Asian Ellis.
So this game is a mix of Dead Rising, L4D, Condemned, and an RPG system; but better.
Fantastic. Can't wait to see more of the game at GDC or E3.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Henry Townshend;28118117]Wow talk about late reply. Was referring to this;[/QUOTE]
Well, it's really only the Crysis setting. But Dead Island is a get-away island, not a Korean Military Base. :v:
Is it bad that I refresh this page every 30 seconds.
Looks like the website is going to show zombie types, I was looking in the characters section and it spazzed up on me, showing things such as
NAME - LOGAN
CLASS - ZOMBIE
[QUOTE=usaokay;28117012]Any of you guys think that Logan is be the father in the trailer?

Probably will be. Otherwise the trailer wouldn't have any point really if nothing what happened in it actually relates to the game.
[QUOTE=Thechuz1337;28118176]Is it bad that I refresh this page every 30 seconds.[/QUOTE]
No, I do too. This game is just going to be fantastic. It has everything to be GOTY IMO.
Anyone else going to tell their friends when they first play coop that it's just like L4D and watch them try and take on hordes of zombies in melee, only to get torn a new one?
That will keep them careful for the rest of the playthrough.
