Dead Island announcement.



It's not often that a game trailer comes out that will make me sit in absolute silence from beginning to end, and then repeat the process 10 or so times more. But the new trailer for Dead Island is an absolute stunner. It puts the honestly extremely well done Gears of War trailers to shame. It's true that the trailer itself does not have any footage of the gameplay or really any details about what the game is about (but if it isn't obvious to you, you shouldn't be watching) but the amazing things that this team has done with the scant 3 minutes provided are more than enough to make me look forward to this games release. The most impressive part of this trailer isn't the visuals (though they are certainly beautifully done) it's the fact that they manage to tell an entire story in only 3 minutes, and not only do they tell you this poignant and tragic story, but they make you genuinely care about the characters involved. In 3 fucking minutes. Seriously guys and girls just give this one a watch and you'll see what I mean, kill the lights close the blinds turn up the volume and just watch.
