Dead Island: Official Announcement Trailer
I’ve been sent this trailer about a hundred times by now, but for one reason or another (Site collapsing) I haven’t been able to post it.
To be honest I have mixed feelings about this trailer. On the one hand I’m excited to have another zombie game out there and I really hope it’s good. On the other hand I don’t really appreciate this trailer making me cry.
I know, I know… “But Carter,” you say, “You are so incredibly manly how can you possibly ever cry.”
I blame my daughter, ever since I had that kid I can’t watch anything bad happen to kids and the girl in this clip is too much like my daughter to make me comfortable.
Oddly all the horrible things happening to the adults does not make me so much as bat an eyelash. Does that make me some sort of sociopath? Probably.
Discussion (12) ¬
I know what you mean. When I saw it I said to my 6 yr old daughter, “Why can’t you be more of a zombie than that little girl.” She replied,” aaaAAAARRRR!” Kids and their sarcasm!?
See that response from my little girl would have filled me with fatherly pride. 🙂
Nah that is not what makes you the sociopath.
Adults are fully able to control their actions and make decisions/sacrifices based on those actions. Like the dad going Conan on the zombies to try to save his little girl. The little girl can’t defend herself (and what kind of parent lets their child run around a strange hotel by herself these days?) This is why I am keeping my girls with me and not letting them roam about the hotel on their own when those zombies come down the hallway I’ll be glad knowing they are safe behind me and I’ll be singing the Log Driver’s Waltz as I hack ’em down. Love that song. This video was awesome. definetly sad though. Can’t wait for the game.
I’m praying the game redeems my sadness by being bloody and awesome. (See it’s the “bloody” part that might make me a sociopath. But I can’t help it.
“Nah that is not what makes you the sociopath.”
Yes it is. Sociopathy is defined by not caring about any other human beings besides your family. People like that are the opponents of humanity and should all kill themselves.
hmm now you are assuming that sociopathy is something that needs to be stopped.
You’ve got a point there.
You’re an idiot. (But for some reason I find you devastatingly handsome)
Does that mean you don’t love me? Because that’s going to make our torrid love affair kinda awkward then.
