@agparrot The different feel between the two, other than general atmosphere, i think mostly comes down to Dead Island having more of an emphasis on melee combat, at least in the earlier stages of the game.
Maybe Borderlands' unexpected success played some part in Dead Islands long developement process and the difference in "that" CG trailer and the finished game. Reply0
Off topic a bit but I was in my local Blockbuster earlier this evening just to have a nose and there was no new release section for games, what looked most like a new release section didn't have any recent releases and the A-Z of PS3 titles went from T to Z only!
@juliankennedy23 It's this game, Xenoblade and Pandora's Tower that should give Wii owners a perfect excuse to take it out the closet.
I agree that the other home consoles aren't getting JRPG's at the standard that we crave these days but the lack of HD with these titles shouldn't be of concern if the gameplay and immersion is there. Reply+2
@Biker_Bob_1971 That avatar editor/dvd drive thing happened to my slim on Sunday and i'm not even in the beta! Come to think of it, i'm sure it's not the first time. Reply+1
Been waiting for a date on this one so it's nice to find out it's on my birthday.
I'll hold my hands up and say i pre-ordered the ultimate set from Zavvi. Already got Substance and Subsistence so because i've started with them MGS collectables there is a strong urge to continue. Reply0
