I was going to pick up Dead Island today....until I read the reviews...

Anyway I picked up Resistance 3 instead

Resistance 3 has been some pretty fun ****, and is a great looking game.
Even on the 'casual' level it has been far from easy.

Anyone here get Dead Island yet?

Anyway I have been playing Dead Island all week and I LOVE the game, as flawed as it might be, I really can't stop playing it.

I found this clip today (this has to be a PC version), I couldnt stop laughing....

It's a solid rig, but what you got for what price is one of the ultimate deciding factors. Not asking that you tell us, likely if you got it from someone fairly well known you did fine.

The Geforce 560 Ti is a solid mid-range card, but it does get outperformed fairly consistently by the cheaper Radeon 6870 part.

I'm sure it will kick mucho-ass.
