It all comes down to this last ‘Dead Island’ post. After two hours of single-player action and two sessions of co-op (amounting to twelve hours of gameplay), my co-op group hasn’t finished the game. Will I buy ...
Now that I’ve gotten my initial impressions of ‘Dead Island’ out of the way, I’ve had a chance to settle in with the (rotting) meat of the game. This time, I managed to convince two other pals to pick up co...
The heralded, groundbreaking zombie genre game (like you’ve never experienced it before!) is here. You’ve seen the dramatic trailer, you’ve read my take on the PlayStation Home infection, and you are desperately ...
