    Game, however?

    Dead Island will feature open world gameplay, played from a first person perspective, with up to four-player co-operative play. The focus will be on melee combat, incorporating customizable weaponry and RPG elements.

    Sold.
    Well there goes my interest in the game. Oh well

    It sounds interesting to me at least. We'll see if it does what it says it will.

    The game itself seems awesome.

    I don't think Paul's snippet post provided enough of a base material for some of the lazier people here to see how Dead Island will hopefully work. So here's a preview article from IGN: Link

    I will say now, if this works as well as we're all now hoping...oh sweet Jesus! Mother of smurfing cock!

    I don't know how this can be considered a good trailer. It tells me one thing and one thing only. There are zombies about and it takes place on an island...possibly with a resort involved. As a game trailer, I still don't know what type of game it is or at least the characters that I will be controlling and their story.

    This is just a throw away scene with throw away characters that tells me nothing about anything. I think they should have extended this by 3 more minutes and submitted it as an animated short. That is something cool. As a trailer to get me interested about the game it is a total failure. It filled me with enough questions to the point were it is immediate overload and I don't care.

    Wow did you read the article? To start with this game is first person and DR is 3rd person. Also Dead Rising has a hugely awesome but incredibly camp atmosphere throughout where as this game is aiming more for gritty realism. How is this looking like it in any way would be DR Hawaii?

    Because the idea is to melee zombies. And yeah. I read the article. Like I said, everyone else will be able to enjoy it. Everyone else enjoyed Dead Rising. The first person thing just makes me think Left 4 Dead, which I also hated, and also everyone else loved. Don't mind my bitterness :P

    There is an experience system and a skill tree system."

    Sounds awesome to me.
