Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

Sponsored Links
Which of these should I see? I am looking for a new game that I have Deus Ex I know these games are far from great, but which of these do you suggest to do today? Both releases September that you think would be the best day to buy one? I know they are different types of games or so, but both seem interesting in their own way. Multiplayer Space Marine looks like it could be fun, but Co-op on the island of dead may be too cool.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I have both Xbox 360, both are great games, but we will be playing a 30-hour and one of 7 hours. Not much to lose in the dead island that promotes the value of reproduction, the Space Marines, not so much. If you can only have an island, is dead, you will not regret either purchase.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I stopped playing half way through the Dead Island and then returned it. It was particularly bad, but in reality it was another zombie killing game could not be bothered to sit through. Instead I found the Space Marines to be much more to my liking, the campaign was really nice and pretty good fiction was reminiscent of what is expected of 40k. The multiplayer mode is where the replay value with a ranking system and customization should keep you entertained.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I liked both games. In my opinion the Space Marines solid action / shooter like Gears of Wars, nothing revolutionary. Great single player romp if you're in the Warhammer 40000 fluff, gaming goodness just oozes tradition. The multiplayer mode is a drag though. Recommended for fans of 40000, rent or stay away from others. Moreover Dead Island is bordering Zombies and a little more serious tone. His love / hate relationship with this game will depend on your love Diablo style loot gathering games. Great graphics! I personally love, but can be something of an acquired taste.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I ended up spending more money than they should have and is so, the Space Marines was an incredible player and multiplayer just entered ... As for the island dead, something I regret spending the money on it, but has potential ... as true in poor voice quality ... I just spent about 12 hours on a single Space Marine player in trouble trying to find anything that is a bit short for my taste, but still a solid game, if someone is still trying to decide to buy, I I would say 9 / 10.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I've jumped on the Space Marines; I'll pick it up at the end. It seems normal, but I'm a fan of board game. Driver has no interest, esp. after the show, so I'm Dead Island. It's good, but keep with errors and some people have been injured, so everything is better with zombies.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I bought two, Dead Island is not bad, agree that it worked better in debug mode then dev does now, but my guess is due to the quick review. The game itself was not brought to capitalize on the publicity, was originally announced at E3 2006. Not that horrible, but honestly I'd give a couple of weeks or months before picking it up, if you are low on the green stuff. But the positive side, the Space Marines 40000 is amazing!

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I like the game Dead Island, rather than history. Great story I'm a guy, I wonder why I'm playing. Apart from the history and complete miss’s elite changes that I know to dodge, the game is an awesome game. You should totally get it. I liked the demonstration of the Space Marines, but became a button masher if you were not careful. Do not get me wrong, I do not care a button masher, but kind of expected a little more than a series of Warhammer. Of course, only the demo and only got to play two missions. The jump was impressive package, like the saw and the ax blade of energy. Overall I give it a strong 3 out of 5.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

Of the two, I've only played the Space Marines, and I think it's awesome. Capturing the brutal world of Warhammer 40000 pretty good, looks great and the game is fun for what it is, though a bit simple. The multiplayer mode is also quite fun, I'm not much of an fps player, but I enjoyed it so far, and give some decent benefits as you go. My only complaint with it is that the campaign is a little short. I have a plan to try to Dead Island, it looks good, so in my opinion can not go wrong in any case, but I can say from experience that the Space Marines are worth buying.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I'm playing well right now and they are very different games. It really depends what you are after. Excellent space marine story, great action and cool weapons, but linesman. It's on rails. I guess I'm at least half way through the game and have enjoyed much of what it is. Dead Island-arena style of play. Play open world RPG-style missions and good Co-op, if you want to play with others. Fary cry It feels like L4D increase compliance and the dead. When I finally built my first cold weapon with a bat, a circular saw blade, tape, wire, and batteries, the game went from amazing fun for me. The characters have to play are all very unique to each other as well. If I'm halfway or more through the Space Marines, then I think Dead Island you will last much longer due to the exploration and sandbox-style game.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

I love the Space Marines. The gameplay is pretty basic, but I'm a big fan of 40,000 that I loved every minute of it. It is also brief, took me about 16 hours of play to win (and I am a slow player). As for the multi-player is largely a function of leveling type current games like COD complete challenges to unlock weapons and things advantages.

Re: Warhammer 40000: Space Marine VS Dead Island

Just get through this quick review of the dead island called best games low. They fooled us all for the CGI trailer was not glossy. The slow movement claimed to represent a family invests ravaged by zombies, and conveyed more emotion than I've seen in a zombie game. The final game, unfortunately, ended up being an awkward, error-riddled action-RPG that could rise above its many flaws. Is that why there's no PC demo and still
