GameInformer: We caught up with Deep Silver cinematic designer, Anton Borkel, who tells us about the trailer's creation process, inspirations, the decision and controversy surrounding the zombification of a child, and explains that while the trailer doesn't exactly show gameplay footage, there are some hints on what to expect.
We might be in the age of remasters, but it doesn't look like the Dead Island 2 devs believe remaking the original game is the right move for the series.
but remakes require far less effort for these companies and they can still charge $70 for them!
Feel like everyone makes fun of Skyrim re-releasing like 18 times yet applaud these remasters elsewhere. Would much prefer NEW games
Making sequels really is the way to go. Otherwise we'll be stuck playing only the first entry, forever!!!

It’s the music. It’s perfect. I agree with this for sure, it is well choreographed….unfortunately the game didn’t live up to the trailer.
Have you ever seen any of the MGS 3 or MGS 4 trailers? Those blow this out of the water for me.

Unfortunately, not every game from the Xbox 360 library has received this glorious feat of being able to be played on more modern Microsoft consoles."
The Spider-man games will never happen. The xbox 360 Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have a better chance of happening than Spider-man titles but won't happen. The Xbox One Ultimate Alliance games delisted years ago
Yeah... you can totally forget about those entries that got delisted because of licensing issues. Those are not happening.
Was an awesome trailers. But haters wanna hate. It did its job and got our attention!
Trailer was cool but it revealed almost nothing about the gameplay, nor any in-game footage was shown. Trailers work perfectly when they are to build up the hype, but if the game can not live up to its hype that would be like turning their own weapons on themselves.
It's kinda sad hearing all the thought and detail that went into the trailer, considering how many claimed it was just a lousy gimmick trailer made for shock-value.
I also find it strange that so many people are annoyed that the trailer showed no gameplay. There have been hundreds of teaser trailers in the past that show nothing more than CGI cinematics. So why is Dead Island recieving so much ridicule for it?
On the bright side though...
"We are not quite ready to talk about the involvement of the family in the game at this stage."
That probably means the family ARE in the game at some point. Yay! :D
