    Default Dead Island: Riptide review and opinion roundup

    Dead Island: Riptide – brainless sequel?

    Should Dead Island’s follow-up have stayed in the grave?

    Eish... You'd think the devs would've learnt from the first one,

    Then again, you'd think consumers would've too

    So glad I stopped checking Gamespot for reviews.
    Not once does the reviewer mention the graphical improvements, he barely touches on the co-op, He also doesn't mention the price $40.

    Same site scored Crysis 80 as far as I remember.
    A game that cost $60 ,that has no story, no char development, one of the shortest sp campaigns I have ever played (Just over 5 hours), incredibly dull and boring.

    I'm not saying Dead Island Riptide is amazing but giving it 40 and then scoring Crysis 3 80 is retarded.

    I take it the animations is better? One of the things I remember someone said about original dead island.
