wow... that's ... :'( sad.
Strangely enough, I didn't realise I was playing this song while watching it (i forgot I left it playing in itunes)

and it actually works in a slightly weird way xD

No, the song did not match one bit.

I liked the trailer man. ITS ZOMBIES!!!! A GIRL GETS TURNED INTO A ZOMBIE!!!! OMG that is epic.

Whats stranger is that the Producer of " The Mummy" film series has already began making a Dead Island movie. Go Figure?

The movie is also said to be Memento-like even though the game is not, so basically the film is based on the trailer more than it is the game (the film follows the family in the trailer while the game follows four completely different protagonists).

The trailer was awesome. Can't wait to see more/

God this game is ancient. I remember seeing it years ago. I hope it lives up to its hype.

Looks pretty cool. Wanted to see some gameplay!

I'll admit it. My eyes did get a little moist.

Though I can't keep thinking how Gears Of War did the same thing.

Then we played the actual game.

._.

I don't think you can compare the trailers in Gears of War to the trailer in Dead Island. Gears of War was just some shooting with some solemn music playing in the background. Dead Island has emotional visuals, with a man trying to defend his family and ultimately being forced to throw his own daughter out the window.

No comparison.

Oh there's a comparison. In the Gears 2 trailer, Dom was upset about his missing wife, holding a picture of her. In the Gears 3, Dom notices an "ash statue"(?) of a mother and presumably her daughter that reminds him of his dead wife and the daughter they could have had.

The only difference is that we haven't actually seen the game. It might be Left 4 Dead all over again. More than likely since the 4 people you play as are "immune to the infection."

Also..."However Schreier urged caution, stating that Techland did not make the trailer and that 'everyone is hyped up about a short film, not the game itself.'"-Wikipedia.

So...yeah.

day 1 buy

Well there is, but I guess the developer hasn't sold the rights yet. But it is being planned.

LMAO the minecraft one XD

Wow. Impressive.

now the trailer is amazing, but it's not the kind of trailer i like. i mean yeah the music is great the mini story is kinda cool, but what the hell does it tells about the game. nothing it's an island and there's zombie in it that's it, no clue about the gameplay. the best trailers are the ones showing gameplay, and not alot of dev's have the balls to do it, it's usually just cutscenes.

I agree, but it was more so the revival of the game. There wasn't any news or anything on it for ages. I think it's acceptable as long as they show us some of the game in the near future.
