Isn't Deep Silver just a distributor, though? I don't think Dead Island is actually made by them. It also sounds like SR4 was pretty far along already, so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Yeah, Deep Silver's just publishing SR4. Volition's still developing.

The Dead Island sequel is a 3GB game for the PS3.

That shit is weak for a normal retail product.

That seems.. wow, no way. That's what I've thought of some titles in the past but it was just the pre-order download size.

[Numbahs]

Smaller than the original.

Only good part about Dead Island was the opening song

[MalaCloudy Black]

Truth.

Playing Star Trek.

I just spent ten minutes crawling around on my ass, waiting for Spock to revive me. He didn't.

While slowly scootching around on my butt, the weapon in my hand disappeared for the fourth time.

What a great game.

This alpha just keeps getting better and better.

[TKz]

That's kind of awesome.

Too far away!

Too soon. I don't want the next gen to come. Too pricey.

It'll be interesting to see whether they have bowed to public opinion (if it was to be believed obviously) about the always online aspect.

I just got a PS3 months ago.

I'm on pace for next-gen around 2015.

It's not like this gen will just disappear at launch. PS2 hung around forever, I can see 360 stickibg it out for a while. Big 360 library versus weaker/launch lineup, online subscriptions paid for, certain unwanted features rumoured. I doubt I'll feel forced to upgrade for a year or so.

Dead Island bored me to tears. The sequel just looks like more of the same to me, so I have no interest.

Oh, I know.

I just know me. I'm gonna want it, not need it. Nor be able to realistically afford the outlay for awhile.

Given my library of games I have yet to play but own? I am in your boat too Summ.

EB Games is doing a deal where you buy the game, and then every day you own it they take a dollar off the full price as trade in value - picked it up, plan on bringing it back in, in about three day days and picking up what I originally went in there for.

[Numbahs]

Weird deal.
