Dead Island Riptide: Zombie Bait Edition (Xbox 360)

Product Information

Celebrity Survivor: Two of the playable characters are former rap star Sam B and former American football star Logan. HendersonSame deal as before, the guidebook entries in Hendersoin are marked in Orange if you want to put down a map marker, and further down the guide there are screenshots of the ingame locations.

I don't care if it's only available in the UK. That 'Dead Island' decapitated woman statue is despicable. Put on a Bus: After all of the buildup in the first game, Kevin/Charon and Yerema promptly disappear in the beginning of Riptide after they are arrested by the ADF. The only thing we know of Yerema's fate is an offhand comment of how she was moved to a different facility. I was glad to see Deep Silver apologising for this rather large misstep, although I was a little perplexed by the fact that they seemed to use the fact that players apparently do this in the game (or at least have the option to) as some kind of get-out-of-jail card. I’ve done some horrendous things in games. I don’t particularly want to see them immortalised in statue form.

I've been playing video games since I was a kid, and it's probably the main thing I do for entertainment. I have as many female friends as male who play video games. It is tiresome to be constantly excluded--and if I am included then I am considered a novelty. Women who play games are a sizable chunk of the audience and have been around for as long as video games. Objects like this statue show that we are not really considered to exist. Anti-Frustration Feature: When you die in the game, you respawn fairly close to where it happened, with all of your items intact.

Land Down Under: Close enough, Palanai could easily be a Queensland holiday resort, many of the survivors are Australian rather than New Guinean, the BIDF is removed and the Australian military is trying to contain the plague (the Navy wears Australian camouflage and a few of the infected are wearing the jellybean version used in the bush) and Purna, John and Ryder White from the first game are from Australia. The breasts are very unrealistic in the way they're being held up by a string bikini, not to mention that there are no wounds on the breasts, making them all the more obvious.The stomach is also very flat, and the bust looks almost anorexic, which is a very damaging image to promote. The Siege: Happens a couple of times. Every playable character will usually be present, whether controlled as NPC's, or by other players. We deeply apologize for any offense caused by the Dead Island Riptide Zombie Bait Edition, the collector's edition announced for Europe and Australia," reads the tweet. "Like many gaming companies, Deep Silver has many offices in different countries, which is why sometimes different versions of Collector's Editions come into being for North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia. I think it's on us, game developers, to prevent controversies like this one. I'm a game programmer and I would be pretty bummed if I was working on what was essentially a game equivalent of a boob mug. You're appealing to the lowest, most vulgar aspects of your audience at a time when games are widely criticized for being juvenile, senseless, and immature, only to then complain that the medium is not being taken seriously as an art form. We should strive to treat our medium with the respect it deserves.

Hey, would you like to hide this kind of warning in the future?

Though if there were zombies nearby, hopefully they don't immediately jump on you again the moment you can start moving...

Dead Island: Riptide - Review". Game Trailers.com. 2013-04-22. Archived from the original on 2013-04-26 . Retrieved 2013-04-22.Shoot the Shaggy Dog: After spending a big chunk of your time in Henderson chasing down Marvin's ex-wife Sylvia, you can finally find her at the makeshift hospital near Cecil, wounded but alive on a bunk bed. It's a surprisingly upbeat ending for a side quest in this game... until you reach the end of the main story and the hospital gets overrun as you drive away in the cutter. Too Dumb to Live: Hardy, you were warned not to climb up the ladder or else you would be shot to death. Did you think the guy was joking around? Oh, and it also comes with the expansion pass, but we don’t know what that’s going to feature just yet.

You All Meet in a Cell: This is how the new playable character in Riptide, John Morgan, meets the others. Suspicious Video-Game Generosity: Henderson is full of unattended, respawning first aid kits and convenient stashes of ammunition. This helps to compensate for the regular appearance of Thugs and Rams, as well as swarms of up to ten Walkers and Infected at once. Death from Above: A new move is the ability to take out zombies by jumping on top of them if you're above them. Its best used sparingly or when there are only 1-2 zombies however, as you're vulnerable for a few seconds after executing this move, during which time the others will happily maul you until you get up.In a world so driven by digital content, it’s surprising to learn that Dambuster Studios has opted to feature lots of physical content in the Dead Island 2 Collector’s Edition. This includes an exclusive steelbook, a map of the game, pins, tarot cards, and a limited edition polyresin statue of Amy, the female protagonist in the game.
