Dead Nation Gets A Devestating DLC Pack

Housemarque, the developers behind Dead Nation, has announced that DLC is being finished up and will be released in the near future with no exact release date along with price. The DLC pack will be titled "The Road of Devastation" and comes with new environments along with new zombies.

In The Road to Devastation, players will find themselves in a ruined laboratory in which players will be able to take three different paths that are put in front of them. Each path given is different in its own way, they will each have different environments and enemies, which is great since replay value will be high. It's not known if each path will have a different ending or not, but that would be pretty awesome if each path had a different ending.

Three Official Tracks From Dead Island

Graphics and a well done story aren't the only thing that makes the game, the music is a big contributing factor also, it sets the mood within the game and helps the player determine what's going to come at him or her and Pawel Blaszczak tried his best to capture all that in his music he composed for Dead Island.

Pawel Blaszczak has composed songs for both Call of Juarez and The Witcher, now he's back with Dead Island's soundtrack which can become available in the collector's edition of the game. Techland has released three different pieces of music that is featured in the game.

The only one I'm liking is the third on, Surrounded by Zombies. Hopefully the rest of the soundtrack is better than these, Honestly, Dead Island isn't looking that promising to me except for it's first trailer and the fact that you can customize your weapons to an extent.

World War Z Movie Looking To Disappoint

So a bit of wholly depressing news came out today about the upcoming World War Z movie. Instead of it being like the book itself, where Max Brooks (because it's him in the book, yes) goes around interviewing survivors of the Zombie War, we're going to get this:

"The story revolves around United Nations employee Gerry Lane (Pitt), who traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to decimate humanity itself. Enos plays Gerry’s wife Karen Lane; Kertesz is his comrade in arms, Segen."

That's right foks, the amazing novel is being turned into just another cookie-cutter zombie movie. Words cannot express how disappointed I am in this news. I love the book. Its actually one of my favorites. Max Brooks really took the time to write a very convincing tale of how people would be effected by such an event. In fact, for those of you who haven't read it, the zombies are really just a vehicle to show the human condition. Just like The Walking Dead, its the people that make the stories interesting, not the zombies. This is why Max Brooks really should have written the script. I guess I'll just weep in the corner...

New Dead Island Trailer Includes Co-op

No, this isn't a Smoker

Co-op is a big part in games, in gives players the chance to have fun with their friends or to be a jerk and screw over your friends by not helping them when they're being attacked. Unfortunately, this co-op reminds me too much of Left 4 Dead.

Dead Island's new trailer shows off it's co-op play, and if I really wanted to play with three other friends in a Zombie FPS I would go play Left 4 Dead, and if I Really wanted to, I could go find a tropical themed custom map to play it on.

I'm more most likely going focus more on the single player than the co-op.

60,774 Players On Cold Stream

After 4 and a half hours after Valve announced them wanting 20,000 players to play on Cold Stream before this Sunday to get early access to Dead Air, people surpassed that 20,000 limit. By 5 p.m. it hit 30,000 and after 24 hours since announcement, a 60,774 limit was reached. Since the limit was reached, Valve will be keeping their promise to us, but more importantly (to me) many many bugs will be fixed due to all the players submitting their feedback.

The new Dead Air map will be available at least by the 22nd, they are currently doing a little more testing and will release it once they are done. Dead Air isn't the only map being redone, the Dark Carnival Finale is also getting tweaked along with other finales, no word on the exact date except for a "when we finish".

Left 4 Dead In Real Life

 
Ever wondered what Left 4 Dead would look like if it featured real life people? Well now you can; this video features people who share similar physical qualities with the cast of Left 4 Dead. Sure they might look like Francis, Luis, Zoey and Bill, but their acting cannot make them those characters alone. Not even the music is good enough to help them.
