Some recent examples include the Manhunt 2 debacle in the UK where the game was released with an 18+ rating only after Rockstar was forced to remove some content, and the Video Appeals Committee used its independent scrutiny to overturn the BBFC's decision. And Australia's ridiculous rating system where 15+ is the highest possible rating a game can receive is always fun to see in action.<br/> news Apr 15, 2008 http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/dead-island/screenshots/g-20070808134934738055 screenshot Jan 22, 2008 http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/dead-island/preview/dead-island/a-2008012216175875049/g-20070808134934738055 Nope, Dead Island isnt the latest necrophilia reality show - this is a new survival horror from the makers of half-decent cowboy shooter Call of Juarez. Kind of a bloodthirsty Far Cry-meets-Lost-meets-Resident Evil, Dead Island is set on a tropical paradise that inexplicably becomes a holiday haven for a different kind of evil tourist that likes to eat brains (and leave their towels all over the bathroom floor, probably). After a plane bringing you and your wife to the island crashes, you wake ...<br/> preview Jan 22, 2008 http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/News-70895.aspx <img src="http://m2.n4g.com/8/News/70000/70895_hs.jpg" /><br />Polish developer Techland today announced that the official website for Dead Island has gone live. <br> <br> Dead Island is a non-linear FPP (First Person Perspective) survival horror title which is scheduled for release on the Xbox 360 and PC.

Three discs glued together if you're like us, but if you know that fancy programming stuff, Dead Island. That's the game that's just been announced by Techland, the developers behind Call of Juarez. It's said to have a non-linear style of gameplay where you're forced to search all over a zombie-infested island for your missing wife.

After a plane crash, you have to hunt through the zombie-infested paradise looking for your wife. The game is said to have amazing damage modeling (think torn flesh, exposed muscles, broken bones), an &quot;artificial life system&quot; that will allow you to take advantage of the instinctive behavior of groups and individuals, an open, non-linear world and the ability to use the world around you as weapons. The game follows the gameplay details in Dead Rising, but this new setting and different publisher should make for a different twist on the story.<br/> news Aug 8, 2007
