lot of strange games up there and Dead Island is doing nuts for a new IP and it doesnt even have a meta of 90. Glad people are still buying Deus Ex, despite Gears out this week. Good for Gears, Only Xbox exclusive i truly like, great series

Interesting. Dead Island and Homefront both fell flat with reviewers and both have sold relatively well. I'm not sure what was different about Homefront that it captured gamers' attention, but I really think Dead Island caught some kind of pent up desire for some first person zombie action. There's been nothing really since L4D2. And Dead Island with it's tropical resort setting also gave it that classic sort of fun B-Movie vibe. So great timing to fill a void.

I guess so, im sick of zombies myself (move on to lycans) but at least they are not ruined like vampires are ruined. and the tropical setting is different

I hate zombies too since Thief I, that in some levels had more zombies than the available special ammo (fire arrows and holy water) able to kill them. But those levels rocked anyway sneaking amongst those bastards was thrilling. But vampires are beyond recovery, really, they became whiny emos with long teeth. I could even tolerate more zombies turning into grunges and punks more rotten than usual.
