I hated dead island because it was a glitchy game and everything was fetch quests

Yes. First review of the year. Story is interesting so far. Too early to say for certain. Haven met the main villain. Gameplay is like a faster paced Dead island with crazy verticality. Cake walk by day, horror survival by night.

You will have to wait for the review for that one.

Mandalore the Unstoppable · January 27, 2015, 02:28:51 PM

Do you like it as much as I do?

R o c k e t · January 27, 2015, 02:36:46 PM

The game looks pretty great! Parkour and zombies

Think it'll top Dead Island or Mirror's Edge?

Legit 8-Bit · January 27, 2015, 02:46:56 PM

Should I buy it?

Yeah that is really weird what happened there. Did they say why the physical is not releasing now?

Pretty fleshed out! I cant wall run, but maybe its an unlockable skill... You can turn jump and all that good stuff too. The jump button on controllers is R1 or RB, that will take some time to get used to.

The parkour isn't as crazy as it is in Mirror's Edge, but your involvement is MUCH more active than Assassin's Creed. One wrong step can send you flying stories downward, and if you manage to survive, you'll probably be killed by the zombies.

From what I've experienced, it's what Dead Island should have been: it's not buggy, the movement is great (although I've heard a few complaints about motion sickness and eye soreness from the film grain effect, but those were few and far between and the effect can be removed on PC), and the combat feels like it has weight to it. The story isn't a masterpiece, but it's not the worst for a zombie game in the past decade.

Oh, and people actually call them zombies, which is nice since that rarely happens in zombie media.

nosejob · January 28, 2015, 04:09:39 PM

It looks like a very slightly less shit dead island. It is another shitty over hyped game. Except I guess people are idiots and like this.
