The first trailer for Dead Island hit the net yesterday, and it sparked some controversy. Â Mainly because of the way it chose to depict the death of a small child during an obviously fictional zombie outbreak in the game. Â It’s best that we don’t try to break this down, it’s not what we do here.
I don’t have kids (or a soul) so watching a computer rendered image of a small child battling for their life doesn’t hit home with me, not so much because I don’t care about kids, but because my brain can discern the difference between reality and a video game.
What does hit home with me, the music, the shot, the way that the trailer was filmed was incredible. Â If the full game is as well done as the trailer, I’m up for some island hopping, and zombie chopping.
