Very fun zombie series, especially when playing online co-op with friends. You get both Dead Island and Dead Island: Riptide with ALL of the DLC packs. Excellent value and highly recommended!

It's a shame that Deep Silver didn't iron out many of the annoying bugs that plagued these games on last gen consoles. Game play and story are still fun, but there are some serious glitches that occur somewhat frequently.

This game is pretty great. The targeting can take some getting used to but other than that I really didn't see any down sides. The co-op was the reason to buy these games back in the day and this is a great collection for the price.

It’s a great value for two pretty decent games. The third game that plays more like a 2d shooter is only mediocre at best

I never played these games on past Gen console so was new to me. I really enjoyed the 2 games but was very disappointed in the 2-D mini game that came with it, could of been so much more. Graphics are nice but not an amazing upgrade vs last gen, watched my friend play it on last gen. If you played on last gen consoles then can pass or wait till gets real cheap. I paid $12 and was well with it.

While I would have preferred the same deal for PS4, can't turn it down at this price. I only recently played Riptide on PS3 so to have both games at a low price on a current gen system is great. These remasters might seem like a cash grab to some people, but I love having a complete collection with all DLC etc.Only problem was that the copy I bought for a friend, came with a broken case (some Best Buy employee just threw it in regardless)

It is worth the money at $20 or less. 2 decent games bundled into 1 package.

The games in the collection are pretty fun. They also look and play better than the original releases. However, they have an odd grainy filter applied to the graphics that can't be turned off. It can make it harder to see in dark spaces.

I loved these games on xbox 360 and when I saw the definitive edition I had to give them a shot. Same great Dead Island game play with much improved graphics and excellent looking scenery. Highly recommend if you enjoyed the originals.

Two games in one for less than $20, good deal. I got it for my son, because he wanted zombie games. I was really impress played it on Xbox one and it was great. I started playing it, I remembered the graphics and dialog are awesome.

The Dead Island Series isn’t the best around, but it has its charms, and at the price you can buy this edition, it’s worth adding to your collection. Even if you just want all the DLC you missed on the 360 it’s worthwhile.

These 2 games are fun any time. Its fun solo but best with friends. besides smashing zombies you get to level up your character and craft new weapons which keeps you pushing forward and wanting to do one more quest. great games.

Played the game when it first came out and getting this was a no brainer! It's especially enjoyable (and addictive) when playing co-op with a friend! The definitive edition does look a bit better than the original

If you like zombie games, this one is pretty cool in how it has RPG type elements and the fact that it brings 2 games with one makes this even better.
