Dead Island Riptide: Special Edition - Xbox 360

Overall game is fun, worth the discounted rate I purchased game under. Quirks in Game: Lost volume on my TV when I was on the Navy Destroyer on two separate occasions, game froze a couple times, on a few separate challenges, the zombies would no proceed to the building the group of survivors were in so I could not proceed forward to complete mission (all entrances to the building had flames in them so I could not go out of the building either) and was forced to close out game and start mission over which I completed successfully the second time around.

Enjoyable zombie killing game that maybe surpassed by others such as resident evil, call of duty black ops, dead rising, left for dead among many others. The visual are fine enough and the action move pretty well for zombie killing spree. Unfortunately multiplayer is only with system link of Xbox live and can't do split screen where everyone can play in the same room. Even call of duty blacktops and left for dead allow two players to play on the same console. Not many people can have multiple xbox and tv for playing multi player at home.

Dead Island is a great game. Pretty challenging if playing alone. There are two options when playing the game. Breeze right through it or take it slow and do sidequests. Sidequests takes a good amount of gameplay time, but rewards you with helpful items. Without sidequests though, it would take maybe 5 hrs to complete the game with good weapons.

This game plays almost the exact same as the first game, which is good if you like killing zombies. It's a pleasant change of pace from all the first person shooters where you just blow everything away. Although there are guns, the majority of weapons are objects you find on the ground such as knives, maces, and grenades.

Picked this game up cheap while it was on sale and I have really enjoyed it. I am currently 89% on the main quest. It is a basic RPG style zombie game. One neat part is the ability to customized you weapons with items found throughout the world. Good game for the price!!

Being a huge fan of the original Dead Island, I can definitely say that this was a great continuation of the story. All of the mechanics that drew me into the original game were present in Riptide. The main downside to the game is that with everything remaining consistent, no real game changing differences were made. Still an overall good game though.

I haven't been able to play too much of the game but i liked the first game even though it was extremely glitchy. This one looks better with cleaner graphics and expands on the past game. May not be a full price buy but since its been out for this long its easily worth 20-25 dollars. Especially if you play through it with someone.

the story is great if you played the first dead island, because u can import any of the character from the first one to dead island riptide, which is great, hope thy put a update to make the levels higher, then level 70. and i hope a dlc is coming soon to riptide, but until then i guess you can level up all 5 character in the game.
