Dead Island's developers call it a "first-person zombie-slasher/action-RPG." That's a mouthful, and it's still unclear what the balance will be among those descriptors. Players will be able to choose from a cast of pre-set characters, including a former rapper named Sam B (the only character revealed so far).

Sounds great. Potential jankiness doesn't scare me, so I'm interested in how this turns out.wwm0nkey said:
