    So is this CG or not? The comments section on the video sure seems to think so. Something about the animation makes it seem real time though. And Jeff was quite impressed with this game, so who knows.

    This trailer was really cool but I once was fooled with the Dead Rsising trailer XD

    If you actually can do this stuff that was shown in the trailer with all the traversal stuffI will be there day one.

    Jesus christ when did Techland become a three game studio? They have this, that medieval dead island game, and then they're clearly probably working on a dead island 2 or whatever.

    @animasta: Well, they're all about zombies, so shared assets, I guess?

    Dead Rising trailer or Dead Island trailer?

    Based solely on screenshots I've seen, the trailer looks fairly representative of the game unlike the Dead Island trailer.

    Well, representative or not, I thought that was a good trailer. I liked that they didn't dwell on that guy's friends getting chomped by zombies and focused on the adrenaline of running from zombies. No time for crying, you run or you die. Wasn't a fan of the song, but as it went on the song picked up and almost had an uplifting quality to it which you don't find in zombie trailers or zombie fiction in general. Up until the end that is.

    Seems like a fun concept, if something. Decent trailer too, even recognized the artist (even if only because of one of his (Woodkid) songs was used for Assassin's Creed - Revelations trailer...)!

    Also, watching this trailer again, that "Cole McGrath?" comment sure makes sense. Outfit's somewhat similiar, all the climbing...and that damn electrified weapon?! Of course this guy has hair, but then again, Cole was also supposed to have some in two before the fan backslash...not that any of this would make any sense, but kinda interesting still.

    Looks cool, but I'm not going to put a whole lot of trust in cgi trailers released by the Dead Island guys. I'll wait to see some gameplay before I get too excited. That being said, I'm all for more zombie games. The trailer alone makes me think it would be cool to see a zombie game with Dark Souls/Journey style multiplayer. Coming across other survivors who are either joining to help you or joining to kill you and take whatever supplies you're after would be a nice addition to the usual zombie thing.

    Is this developed by Good Techland or Bad Techland?

    FREERUNNING! That's the only reason I'm interested in this game. If the freerunning is as good as it shows in the trailer, I will get it day 1, no matter if Techland's name is on it. But I hope this is good Techland.

    The Screenshots look rather nice, the zombies have a real 'infected' rather than 'living dead' look to them, and I think they've said its gonna be open world?
    could be cool.
