I'll add my thumbs up too. Looks great overall.

Lets hope there is a little more to it than just bashing Zombies brains in though,even though i just love some of the kills and slow motion death animations.

Agreed. It was a relief to see you could drive cars and mow them pesky zombies down.

The RPG mission structure, whereby NPCs you meet ask you to do stuff was kind of encouraging. You can see that eventually - with a storyline unfolding and more backstory revealing itself - there must be a way to get off the island or whatever they're going to do in the telling.

Dunno why nobody thought to sort one of the many boats lying around out though? I think that's the first thing I'd have done if I woke up on holiday and everybody had gone a bit mad in the night and wanted to eat me.

Run like duck!

The more I hear, the more I'm looking forward to this

Think we got about 6 weeks wait for this as it ships on the 9th September,that's one thing i hate about the summer a complete Gaming Drought with nothing of interest to buy.......................Still unsure about the new Deux Game but i have ordered myself a Turtle Beach PX5 headset.................I just can not resist anything that is suppose to be good for a gamer and from what i have read about these cans they are suppose to be something special..................They need to be for £170 and hopefully this will be the last set of headsets i buy .

Did you see the latest in-game footage T2D linked? It looked sweet. If not check it out:

The more i see the more i WANT.

20 Minutes of gameplay...............

Well, I'll be very interested to know how those new cans turn out for ya T2D. It's been a while since I had any surround sound gaming headset, that being a Zalman 5.1 I think. It'd be nice to believe the hype and see if they really were any better for spatial awareness than a good set of say Sennheisers in stereo.

G'luck with them. Where did you order from btw?

I only use one ONLINE SHOP mate.

Apparently in Dead Island you can play as 4 different character's and each Quest can last up to 25 hours....................Lovely Jubbly.

I have been watching many videos of this game and i am really looking forward to this as much as MW3 and B3,it looks a little repetitive but it looks like heaps of fun with many side missions and quests.

Been watching some IGN interview with one of the developers and when you first start not all the Island is open for exploration but will be available as you level up and get stronger,game even changes when a friend joins your game online as the Zombies then get even tougher based on how many of you are playing.

There is also 4 player co/op and lots of other stuff such as survival ....Pre/ordered roll on Sep 9th.

Yeah, co-op definitely sounds the way to play.

Are you getting the game for PS3 then or have you not forgiven Sony yet?

I should've known you'd have used shopto.net! Actually I need to call them up as they still have £2.00 of my money for when I tried to sign up with them and they never refunded it.

Anyways... let us know how the new headphones turn out for you.

Yes and completely agree
