    My dead Island

    After playing Dead Island on PC with an Xbox controller for about twenty-five hours I

    can really appreciate the work that was put in designing the world and the Ass-holes populating it.

    It is a surprisingly long game and a nice change of scenery for the zombie apocalypse.

    cans for example) and fairly poor sound.

    It is worth the look but I would recommend waiting for a good price drop or a long weekend

    rental for console players.

Well you can forget all about that trail...
