Dead Island - Gameplay walkthrough.

The walking shit-bags are back in Dead Island, which is looking like a little bit of 'Dead Rising', a bit of 'Left 4 Dead' and a splash of 'Fallout 3' - all of which are cracking good games! If this romp through zombieland is half as good as it looks from the video below (via G4TV) then I recon I might as well lock myself away for at least a week with the game and some supplies - smokes, booze, snacks - you know, the bare essentials! If it really is that good then I might play it till the propper zombie Apocalypse is upon us... Wha?! It could happen!! I'll be well trained for it when it does... er, I mean - IF!

Keep an eye out for Dead Island at E3 and if your itching for a trailer then jump to Techland's site here.

Call of Juarez: The Cartel Story Trailer

For 'Call of Juarez: The Cartel' the developers have put down the Winchesters and picked up their assault rifles and are promising a blood filled trip down to Mexico dishing out some wild west style justice, but in the modern world... Confused? - Good! Developed by Techland and published by Ubisoft, Call of Juarez has a release date of summer 2011. Is it just me or does the guy at the end of the trailer look like Triple H ??

Dead Island


Set in The Royal Palms Resort in Papua New Guinea, Dead Island by Techland could be a breakthrough in the horror /action/ adventure gene.

Picture the scene you wake up with a massive hangover and find out there’s been a zombie outbreak, and not the walking home from a hard nights clubbing type of zombie but the proper flesh munching type. And what’s worse, this is only day two of your holiday!


This game does sound impressive with an XP based levelling system and skill tree that will let the player choose how to develop their deadhead smashing character, 4 player co-op(both local and on-line) ,weapon customization, RPG elements and of course hordes of zombies.


Seeing as this is based in a holiday resort your access to semi and fully automatic firearms and things that go boom is more than likely going to be limited, but the developer is promising a “spectacular system of dealing with combat damage: blunt weapons, crushing skulls, breaking bones and blades choping off limbs and decapitation.” Sounds good...
Granted it does sound like a love child of Left4Dead and Dead Rising but the developers are promising us something special ,and seeing that it was originally meant to be released in 2008 let’s hope so.

Release Date: Q4 2011 (ish)

Dead Island - More Zombies than you can Shake a Mai-Tai at!

Mmm Zombies, I love em. Squishy, bloated shit bags that burst open like a ghoulish pinata when poked by sharpened metal. What fun! If you also have a love of all things apocalyptic then you will love the newest FPS 'Dead' game due to hit the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC soon. Its called 'Dead Island' and looks like a Hawaii setting infested with retarded meat heads ready for mincing. Is this just another L4D attempt? Perhaps, but whats so wrong with that eh... The cool trailer below will give you the tone its going for and check out the website here for a full rundown on what to expect. Happy zombie stomping!
