Thank god it`s not a typical FPS or survival horror zombie game…. http://www.gametrailers.com/video/gdc-11-dead-island/711224

Yeah, there’s no way a game can capture the feeling of that trailer, and judging from the gameplay they’ve shown, they’re not even trying.

That’s sort of irrelevant though. The game can be as horrible as it likes, but they’ve still contributed with an awesome trailer that anyone can see and have their mind blown from.

awesome. This comic really sums it up. I know what you mean to, hard to get over that masterpiece. However I seriously doubt that any game will ever be able to capture all the power and emotion of that trailer. The trailer will forever be a masterpiece but I have no expectations for the game to follow that up. It just can’t!

But back to the idea of “getting over” that trailer…. to quote Fahrenheit 451, “We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?”

Quite disturbing, not the comic but the fact that I watched this video before checking on this comic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rv-SQc6LA2E

From the guys who make red vs blue, geoff watchs the video and you get to see his reaction, he has a young daughter.

Never seen anything from a game that was quite so powerful as that trailer. It genuinely disturbed me, had me in awe of the movie-feel and made me feel teary. Calling it now: it’s a masterpiece.

You got a point that it has the potential to get to people who have children that age, so it could hit home.

But then again, Scott is scared to death of Silent Hill among other games, so the “Scott’s a girly-man” explanation still holds.
