I'm impressed. This is one of the few titles I'm actually looking forward to this year. I might even pre-order it.

This thread died quickly, so I'm gonna jumpstart it's heart!

I keep watching the videos for this and it seems like it could be really awesome. It's a title that I would like to buy right out the gate when it's brand new (something I Never do), but I wish there was a demo. Unless there is one and I'm blind to finding it online.

Looks like it'll be a great new L4D, lots of emphasis on the zombies getting really up in your face and cool melee weapon kills.

why did you remind me of this game? now I have to choose between this, bf3, mw3, or resistance 3

Cross out mw3 and resistance 3. You have no decision to make. You must get bf3 and if you can turn in enough cans and mow enough lawns you are also getting dead island.

This game for me is going to wait until reviews come out. Previews have been hit or miss, and voice acting from the videos have seemed a little on the poor quality side.

It's got promise, but that's what I thought about BRINK too, and I was dead wrong on that.

Keep in mind the reason why brink seems so horrible is because the pre-launch reviews sold it as something else.

I think I'm going to pre-buy it for PC, but I will wait a couple days to pick it up. I do want to see reviews on it. Voice acting really doesn't kill a game for me, I want good gameplay, voice acting is low on my list of needs.

Also yeah, I've got BF3 and Skyrim already pre-payed. Now it's to trade in some junk games for Dead Island. If Dead Island bombs I'll be looking at Space Marine. But both of those last ones, if they don't do amazing I"ll wait till a deal comes on Steam.

So, NDAs are over and reviews of this game are coming out, and the consensus of reviews seems to be that it's a good game, but it has a fair amount of bugs and interface issues. They do mention that the game has evolved well since the initial previews we've all been reading,

I will probably pick it up.....but it will probably wait until a sale. Don't think I'm up for full price on this game.

Very nice, thank you very much. I wasn't going to buy this game on release. However, with that discount plus another dollar off I got for a trade in because of a game I got for free made this a good deal. $32 pre-order for a $50 retail game.

Wish I had $50 to burn, been quite interested in this game for some time. Alas, it won't be any less fun when I'm able to pick it up, but it might just be less expensive
