Dead Island Preview (Xbox360)

http://www.strategyinformer.com/xbox360/deadisland/612/preview.html

In way, Dead Island has arrived late to its own party. First announced back in 2005 (with an original release year of 2008), developer Techland have had to watch franchises like Left4Dead, Resident Evil and Silent Hill succeed (more or less) in their absence. That's not to mention the penchant for unrelated franchises like Call of Duty and Red Dead Redemption hopping on the zombie band-wagon lately as well. Still, they call it 'fashionably late' for a reason, and it's a question as to whether the delay will help or hinder them.
