Pea- post-pub fightings going on. I'll definitely be on this over the weekend.

Ha, wax mode was seriously encouaged and engaged on DD. It's a handsome game and I will be polishing it off at some point.

This is cheap as chips for what you get, and the co op is great.

Modstock this weekend, back on it Sunday night. Well, apart from tonight.

It's a shame the old old forum was turned off as it would be interesting to have a read through the old thread again...

A retrospective would be pretty handy to be fair, for games that are patched up to the hilt and multiplayer games due to the community not really having a chance to grow at the time of release.

The practice of chucking a game out half finished then patching it once released has to be stopped somehow, I feel sorry for anyone who picked this up without access to the Internet.

Anyway, I'll be up for some bone snapping tonight. Who will be the fourth survivor?

Mine has been snet from Amazon so it might arrive tomorrow. Early Saturday and Sunday afternoon, team Tempy Banoi Basho is on.

I'm in the same boat Cooper, I can play it twice this weekend and then I'm out of the game until a week on tuesday because I'll be getting drowend by the beach in Suffolk. JOIN USSSS.

I'm watching The Green Lantern with my girlfriend, I'll be on after that.

Pff, shouldn't have opened this thread, was just that I wasn't feeling that well this week, and out of boredom opened and read through threads of games I'm not interested in.

Am interested now, but chances will be slim that I will actually play it with some. Just as I always seem to miss out on BF3 and L4D.

I'm like a couple of others on here, intigued by the interest this thread has created. It seems that there has been a Dead Island surge through the forum and I am just on the cusp of it, haven't quite brought myself to buy it though...

Yeh just tell him it's an island expansion for L4D, maybe glue a Valve logo to your TV.

Great fun with Sparkly then. Not even doing quests, just messing about, doing a few achievements and collecting stuff for Mods. Kept us engaged and laughing for a few hours.

I recognise that the main faults I identified were probably mostly SP problems.  From my fifteen minutes, though, I recognise te fault identified earlier of not being able to open doors, in spirit, anyway, if not that specifically.  You can search this suitcase, but not that one.  You can't open the hatch on the elevator until we've made you run back to a locked door to see that it is locked.  You can't pick up that weapon until this horrifically animated NPC has told you to pick it up.  Your weapon is broken, so find a new one. But see all those wooden posts for the rope fences that would be perfect for the blunt weapon specialist character you picked?  Not them.  So now, while you have zombies all around you, you have to look at everything for a moment to see if it might be a weapon.  And the aerosol deodorant and lighters (with fuel) can't be a weapon either, silly.  Not even if you tape them together with the tape you just found.  And god forbid you are looking anywhere other than directly at a character when they are speaking, because the sound guys have opted for that fun deaf-to-anything-to-one-side-or-behind-you approach.  So you'll miss the start of what they're saying trying to find out who is speaking, then spend the rest of it forced to watch their face, grimacing like a not-very-good ventriloquist.

I'm not on your friends list for the same reason I'm not on a lot of people's friends list, I imagine; rants like that one.

I could sit and pick a million holes in it, it's still a brilliant game.

Hold on a minute, I thought this game was supposed to be shite?
