Gonna wait to see the initial reviews first :)

Got 2 copies pre-ordered. Hope this one is as good as the 1st one.

and another review from Kotaku (http://kotaku.com/dead-island-riptide-the-kotaku-review-476715264), twitter post headline being: "In case you missed it last night, Dead Island: Riptide is a buggy, unbalanced mess that you should avoid."

I'm getting it for xbox. If anyone needs a co-op partner, let me know!

That stinks I was looking forward to this. Sounds like they made the same mistakes that the Left 4 Dead series did between 1 and 2 which ultimately killed the franchise.

I'll probably wait until it's a little cheaper and they patch the buggy stuff. Then I'm game all day! :cool:

I wish I would have. Maybe that's why it started with a 49.99 price

I got the edition with the zombie hula dancer thing and the keychain (I collect keychains so it was mostly for the keychain). But I'm not gonna get to touch it until this weekend. Maybe.

[CrzyChinook]

"WHO DO YOU VOODOO BITCH!!".... from all the reviews it all says the same.. it just like the first one.. and a great co-op!.. remember the first one was buggy too...

I still need to pick it up in a bit and have a baseball game this afternoon but will let u know when I finally get a chance to pop it in.

So picked it up and got a good 30 minutes in but have to leave for a Little League game. I think if you liked the 1st one you will like the 2nd. You can import your character which I like. But a lot of combat frustration wasn't fixed like missing from point blank range. I will definitely be trying it more later just wanted to give you a quick glimpse.

I bought it anyways lol, I really enjoyed the first. Plus AAFES had a deal where you got RE6 for 9.99 if you bought it. So $60 for two games not bad.

[KaNtSt0PMeH]

In the small bit I played single I lagged a bit. Never had that happen before
