Dead Island is a forbidden game in Germany, we get Metro 2033. What do you think? Good replacement for Dead Island?

Metro 2033 is pretty good.. but I don't understand why you can play Metro 2033 and not Dead Island?

Because one is forbidden, one is not

Gears 1 and 2 were forbidden, 3 and judgment not... It's ridiculous.

Dead Island is a pretty fun game. If you can get it for free, then i say download and play.

Personally I love zombie games, and this is one of the best out there for that. It got slated quite a lot by reviewers... it's one of those marmite games. It's a little clunky, Voice Over very cheesy, but the combat is very satisfying and fun.

Pretty BS decisions from them, specially because they aprove some games that are basically the same that others they banned before. Well, anyway, Metro 2033 is a better game than Dead Island, at least for me.

Bet with jetforcejiminy: PS4 will pass the Wii lifetime numbers.

I'd definitely take that trade off.

Why couldn't you dl sleeping dogs?

Because I bought my console from the UAE but I live in Canada, so when I asked Xbox Support what the problem was, they said the publisher didn't allow the game to be downloaded if the console's region didn't match your account's region. Its the first time I've gotten that error though, cause I regularly download games with gold.

Square Enix are almost as bad at PR and how online services as Nintendo are at times. If you want to play Sleeping dogs tho? get an old copy of gta4 in gamestop for about 5-10euros, break the disk into pieces and only put in the parts of disk which involved going Bowling or eating icecream with Roman in the disk tray and when you go to play it replace your chair with some nails. Should be about the same experience.

I bought that game at launch and still haven't played it. My daughter beat it, though. Hope it didn't scar her or anything.
