The Bottom Line:

"Almost, but not quite"

In the beginning dead island appears to be the zombie horror game we all have been dreaming of. It takes place on an island, with hordes of zombies besieging it. The zombie voice acting is wonderful, the environments look great graphics are pretty good, and the weapons function well. Something that you will notice as you progress farther in the game though is a host of technical issues. None that are serious enough to inhibit the play the game but they do detach from the experience. It's a little disappointing when you're ready to pull out your wooden plank to bludgeon the zombies head in only to have the whole game slowdown from frame rate jitters. One of the most inhibitive of all the glitches, is when you finish a quest and are ready to go back to the quest giver only to notice that the game is denying you were in a quest in the first which forces you to go back and complete it all over again.these Glitches are minor and should not take away from the fun of the game. Overall the game is seriously fun and should be given a 4/5 stars rating.
