There's a trailer for Dead Island that just came out on ign, and it's amazing. This game had completely fallen off my radar, but now it's back in a big way. One of my favorite trailers all-time! Check it out at ign.

one of the best trailers i have seen in a very long time

i thought this game had been cancelled, its been so long since it was announced, about 3 or 4 years ago and we have never seen anything from it, but i guess they were still working on it

lets hope the gameplay is good, cause the trailer sure is sweet...

Wow... Thought the game was going to be amazing since it was announced...

But this trailer is trailer of the year! (If there's such a thing), it was depressing, but amazing.

I remember seeing an in game trailer for this in 2008, maybe 2009, and it looked pretty good. This trailer just made it one of my most anticipated games. Great music, and great emotion.

That was interesting. I'd like to see it reedited to play in sequence, though. Between L4D, Dead Rising 2 and RDR, I think I'm pretty done with zombies for a while. Unless this one has a great hook.

First off, finally some promotion for Dead Island. It's been in production long enough. Two, ****ing WOW! That was the illest trailer I've seen... ever. Game trailers lack that cinematic feel, that did not. But now I have high expectations for for the graphics, it's kinda like the Deus Ex trailer. They show the first trailer then they show gameplay footage and I'm like, meh. It's important they show gameplay as not to set my expectations to high..

Screw it I'm gonna watch it again. They won't be releasing that trailer on Live or PSN, to graphic. Which I like.

That's one of the better announcement/cgi trailers I've ever seen. Really really well done. Like everyone else, it will depend on gameplay.

However, I am getting sick of zombies. I'm way past being into that whole trend.

I agree that zombies are really overdone, but this game seems like it will actually have a good story to back it up. I'm also really liking what I've heard about the combat. There's a new preview on ign along with the trailer, check it out here:

This is the first I have ever heard or seen of this game and Im completely psyched for it. I thought I couldn't get excited for Zombie games anymore after L4D2 but this proved me wrong. I WANT MORE!!!

Never expected to hear about this game again. But wow, the trailer really peaked my interest. I read on joystiq that it's a first-person zombie-slasher/action-RPG. I sure hope the gameplay holds up.

The trailer was far and above excellent. However, because of the delay in related material (spanning 3 or 4 years) and the simple fact that this game almost never saw the light of day, I'm going to hold off on any speculation as to whether or not the game play will be solid. After all, it's just a trailer and did not reveal any game play what so ever. At least we get a basic idea of the storyline though ;)

I don't hope it's a dead rising rip off. I dislike that game. I personally think it will be an escape the zombies game. As in running for survival. Kinda like l4d but with a real plot.

Best video game trailer ever? Maybe.

Best zombie game ever? Cautiously optimistic.

Talk about getting the public's attention. The official trailer has 1.7 million views on youtube. That's not even counting the other duplicates that have a few hundred thousand views as well.

That's what the plot is, well that's what the plot is for Dead Rising too lol. But your running around bashing Zombies brains in with baseball bats, its certainly going to be more serious than Dead Rising, but it doesn't sound any different from your standard zombie kill-fest. Its getting closer to the zombie game I would want to do, since it has an open world, but it still has too much emphasis on mowing down the hordes. It is a great trailer though.

How do you get that it's all about mowing down the hordes? It mentioned that weapons will be realistic in the sense of, use what you can carry. Little amount of guns and even less ammo. It also never mentioned building weapons like Deadrising. Im really hoping it brings back the survival horror feel of the old Resident Evil games.

Looks great! I've been waiting for a good zombie game that takes it self seriously. I mean Dead Rising is fun and all but a little goofy.

Another article mention the possibility of combining items, like in deadrising, thats mostly what the person you quoted meant.

Wow... Dead Island is getting a film adaptation of the game! That should be fantastic if it's anything like the trailer!
