Nah, DI is so goddamn much better than Dying Light it’s not even funny. Dying Light has nothing on Dead Island. Not sure why ppl think DL is so good. The combat is weightless. Everything sounds like u are hitting a brick wall and the location is just ugly.
@@bradkirchhoff3751 Ah sadly my only experience with Dead Island is that I tried to play Dead Island Riptide a long time ago, but every time I tried to complete the first mission the game crashed. So, sadly I didn't experience the game. Dying Light was my first game from this genre, and personally I enjoyed it. The parkour was cool (at the time I don't remember another game with first person parkour except Mirror's Edge), night time in the game was really scary for me (I was 12 years old... xD) and I didn't think of how the weapon is weightless, but thinking back at it now, yeah I remember the weapons do feel weightless, BUT I think that was a design choice to make the game's fighting synergies with the parkour, to make the game feel swift while jumping on top of roof tops killing zombies on the go. Now I have not experienced Dead Island, but I would think it focuses more on the reality aspect, which sounds cool to me, I have to play Dead Island 😅
Has me balling like a girl each time I watch it...especially at the end when the father and daughter's hands pull apart. Brilliant example of how truly great editing of a normal sequence with the right music can make all the difference. The forward version doesn't even compare to this.
I never cared about or played the game but this trailer is super depressing. I actually first heard the music in a different video, look up One With The Force by Make It Dirty if you like Star Wars, that video almost made me cry because of the same music here. Feels.
just think of how much better the game would've been if it followed this family, the dad searching for a way to save his daughter and then in the end he is to late and he has to kill her to prevent her from becoming one of them. a tale of sorrow and tragedy and how one man goes through the impossible on the feeble and useless attempt to save his daughter above all else.
Dead Rising 2 is almost that, with his daughter being infected with the zombie virus, but he has to give her a pharmaceutical drug that prevents the daughter from turning into a zombie. Choosing not to give her the medicine gives the ending of the father letting himself get killed by a horde of zombies, from the regret of failing to care for his daughter.
This is seriously one of the best trailers for a video game that I have ever seen. I thank you so much Deepsilver and Techland, you brought a ling of true beauty into the world.
Thank you for keeping this video. I thought I still had it on my backup hard drive, guess not. Yes so I've seen like a thousand video game trailers and this is by far the best I have ever seen. Published June 16, 2011 ? 6.5yrs later, its still the best in my opinion. The music, the backwards scene; intermittent live footage. Absolutely the best!
+iRaeBandz Tv Really? 2013 comes AFTER 2011? Obviously I meant the two games would have had the same atmosphere despite my example coming out 2 years after Dead Island.
They make a lovely story right here in a trailer or the start of one (potentially) and then we get Generic Zombie Game 4. What the actual hell!? Every time I come back to this trailer, it pisses me off how fucking lame the game was compared to this absolutely amazing trailer. Triggered/10 You fucking pulled the wool over my eyes, grand job maestro.
@Ignited Springtrap999 You reply to a 9 month old comment calling someone an asshole because they made a joke about a fictional character's death, get a life.
do they give out trailer awards, or best marketing approach in the game industry? because this company deserves an award. i can honestly say that was single-handedly THEE best trailer i have ever seen for a game. damn good job.
This is the reason why I had to beat dead island, when I first saw the commercial 😭 I was so sad for the young girl, just imagine the last thing she sees is being chased by zombies and having her leg bitten by one and her dad coming back to save her, only too late (man I'm crying just by writing this) this is truly a sad one 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Excuse me, if the sequel is pending, why don't you just make a prequel, example: "Dead Island: Before the Outbreak"? So the story based on the trailer would be playable. Right? And I think you could make a great zombie game with a great story and life lessons. That is awesome, guys.
@@ant_yep I interested to play the game for this trailer. Somehow I love the game too. I still playing re playing the game until now like a GTA game. The gameplay is all about.
@@furyrust I see. Yes, me too. I'm playing the game again and I wanted to see the trailer and I love them lol Aw... GTA❤ I love that game too but I can't play it anymore cuz I don't have it. U have good taste tho 👍
Dead Island was a decent game, but this trailer didn't represent what the game was actually like...however, this is by far one of the best trailers ever, on its own merits!
I really wish they had made the game more like this trailer. Don't get me wrong though, the game is still great as is but this made the impression of it being a pure Zombie survival game. Just from watching this alone you understand the fear and terror rushing through the victims minds along with the confusion of why this is happening fighting an inevitable demise. More games and movies should take note from something like this, it's short and to the point but the key is in the details.
Its crazy because you watch this and wonder what happens after well this guy has these play throughs and he goes out of his room while playing as logan and the room where that family dies is right beside his you can go in there and get the axe
Even if the game had absolutely nothing to do with the mood of the teaser and it looks way more Last of Us than...what it is, whoever actually *designed* it should be given props for making it look a lot cooler than it is. It's no Master of Orion 3 intro/teaser (I liked MoO3 but obviously almost everyone else hated it, even if it had one of the best intros/teasers *ever*, especially in HD) but it's totally in the same league. I mean, not the same can be said for games that actually end up good, but have crappy trailers, like Titanfall (which was stupid-incomplete, but still was...a really good demo for a game that Could Have Been So Much More).
one of the best game trailers ive seen in awhile, ranks up there with bioshock. This is gunna be a great game, its gunna be a lot like L4D but 10x better.
I know your comment is 3 months old, but wanted to say that you can actually find them in the prologue. They are dead on the floor of their room though.
this is the saddest trailer for a video game ever man.
I know too bad the actual game didnt emulate this
God of war Accession
Cody Petrowsky fr
Cody Petrowsky I agree
It's so sad I cryed
This trailer is so brilliant it still chokes me up every time I see it and is the only thing that comes to mind about Dead Island.

this has to be the greatest and saddest game trailer of all time
Watching a depressing trailer when you're depressed.
Captain Eggcellent brought me here and it's just...
*sobs*
yeah i didn't know his music came from this game
Still brings a tear to my eye every time i see this trailer.
Once you start the game, from your room go left in to the open room at the end, on the floor is something lovely. Also the dads a badass
Everytime I watch this video, some asshole starts cutting onions! >:'(
L
haha

Same here. Definatelly one of the best game trailers I've ever seen.
TerryRed Where can I watch the forward version?
@@TheNickness RUclips
7 years old and is still one of the most heart wrenching trailers of all time
2021 this trailer is still the most heartbreaking to ever exist. And with that score? Oh my god, 😭😭
8 years later and still the greatest trailer of all time.
I still get goosebumps till this day, amazing and sad trailer
7 years later and this is still the most perfect and impactful trailer for anything I've seen
I never cared about or played the game but this trailer is super depressing. I actually first heard the music in a different video, look up One With The Force by Make It Dirty if you like Star Wars, that video almost made me cry because of the same music here. Feels.

That's pretty much Dead Rising 2.
or the last of us
Sprungy Chungy or the walking dead
didnt the dad get bitten? or is it you have to die to become one of them
Dead Rising 2 is almost that, with his daughter being infected with the zombie virus, but he has to give her a pharmaceutical drug that prevents the daughter from turning into a zombie. Choosing not to give her the medicine gives the ending of the father letting himself get killed by a horde of zombies, from the regret of failing to care for his daughter.
one of the best trailer ever made so far. hit you deep inside
how someone can dislike this masterpiece,i mean look at expression,editing,music,mood....
This is seriously one of the best trailers for a video game that I have ever seen. I thank you so much Deepsilver and Techland, you brought a ling of true beauty into the world.
one of the best trailers for ANYTHING, EVER
This trailer is a work of art and I'm sad that people haven't talked about it since the year it was made.
Made me cry every time because it reminds me of my mom and dad that died in 2013
R.I.P. 🙏🙏🙏
Rip we are here for you we will help you
Thank you for keeping this video. I thought I still had it on my backup hard drive, guess not. Yes so I've seen like a thousand video game trailers and this is by far the best I have ever seen. Published June 16, 2011 ? 6.5yrs later, its still the best in my opinion. The music, the backwards scene; intermittent live footage. Absolutely the best!
I'd argue that this is the best video game trailer ever.
Even all these years passed, it's still the most impressive game trial I have seen.
:(
this trailer is so sad.
No
The best trailer made for a game right here. Still brings me tears😓
Shame the game wasn't nearly as good as this trailer. I was hoping it would have had a "Last of Us"-feel to it.
the game came out before the last of us dumb ass
+iRaeBandz Tv Really? 2013 comes AFTER 2011? Obviously I meant the two games would have had the same atmosphere despite my example coming out 2 years after Dead Island.
+iRaeBandz Tv I really hope you have a better day than whatever is going on right now that barrs your rational thought.
+John Jarocki dead island came out before the last of us 😂😂😂
+iRaeBandz Tv I really hope you start having a better day.
This trailer is so good!! One of the best I ever saw!!
It's a shame that the game is not so good as this. :(
It’s definitely the best zombie game ever made. Dying Light was shit...
@@bradkirchhoff3751 you mean the opposite
The best E3 game trailer off all time 👍. He is so sad 😢😢😢, I love him ❤
"I'm not crying there's something in both of my eyes." Tobuscus in his literal trailer
They make a lovely story right here in a trailer or the start of one (potentially) and then we get Generic Zombie Game 4. What the actual hell!? Every time I come back to this trailer, it pisses me off how fucking lame the game was compared to this absolutely amazing trailer.
Triggered/10 You fucking pulled the wool over my eyes, grand job maestro.
I still can not bring myself to finish this trailer after 7 years
Can't stop crying😭😭😭😣
Came here after finding out about Axis Studio. You guys were great.
I had forgot all about this trailer, amazing work
Somebody let me know when the game this is advertising comes out
Someone doesn't understand sarcasm...
Thiago de Aguiar ikr
Thiago de Aguiar top notch "sarcasm" we got there
Matheus B. actually yes it was pretty brilliant sarcasm.
Well, you missed out from playing it about 7 years ago
Bro she was thrown out like *YEET*
@Ignited Springtrap999 You reply to a 9 month old comment calling someone an asshole because they made a joke about a fictional character's death, get a life.
That Australian hobo
I really hate that this statement is basically correct.
This bitch infected YEET
2022. And now we know the legend this trailer began will continue February 2023.
Just stopping by here every once in a while
This trailer changed my outlook on video games
How dare this trailer to have come out 7 years ago. And how dare I remember it. Dammit
If only the actual game was this dramatic 😞
October 1st, 2021... still sad
Probably the most effective trailer for any media ever.
do they give out trailer awards, or best marketing approach in the game industry? because this company deserves an award. i can honestly say that was single-handedly THEE best trailer i have ever seen for a game. damn good job.
*Who's still watching in 2017?* 😥
ILLUMINAT3D 2018
2019
This trailer is just amazing
This made me cry for the first time i saw this
still the best trailer ever made ! for 1 of the best games ever made
Thank u...Best zombie game available. Better than Riptide and Dying Light.
I feel like Crying Everytime i watch Or Remember this Trailer.
perfect music. just wish more games put this much thought into their musical score.
This is the reason why I had to beat dead island, when I first saw the commercial 😭 I was so sad for the young girl, just imagine the last thing she sees is being chased by zombies and having her leg bitten by one and her dad coming back to save her, only too late (man I'm crying just by writing this) this is truly a sad one 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
this is going to make me cry
Its even sadder because at the end you can see that they were on a holiday
One of the most powerful trailers of all time
Still cried watching it :'(
Souvenir de 2011 🌹
Not gonna lie this trailer makes me cry
Shed a tear for trailer..cried my ass off when the game wasn't what I thought it'd be.lol.still a good game though.the DLC I mean.
The BEST videogame trailer ever made!

I dig it 👍
@@ant_yep thanks a lot. Wow it took 2 years to get my comments got noticed. 😅
@@furyrust lol funny 🤣 I thought it was a good comment tho lol
@@ant_yep I interested to play the game for this trailer. Somehow I love the game too. I still playing re playing the game until now like a GTA game. The gameplay is all about.
@@furyrust I see. Yes, me too. I'm playing the game again and I wanted to see the trailer and I love them lol
Aw... GTA❤ I love that game too but I can't play it anymore cuz I don't have it.
U have good taste tho 👍

I haven't dried in like 8yrs but damn....this touched me wow and the music oh man and @ TheChickenLegsize I'm with you all the way.
I feel sad about the trailer but I think the song can make some people cry but the game is pretty good and I completed it 3 times
this trailer is so sad I can't stop crying
guy in the background at 0:32 fighting zombies .....such a badass
This little girl didn’t run faster I’ll be full sprinting
Jane Do yes but they are zombies and they never stop Moving . they have "unlimited stamina" and a human doesn't have an "unlimited stamina"
Just cried some. Can't wait for this
Most depressing and enthralling trailer I've ever seen. Dead Island: The Movie anyone?
Greatest videogame trailer ever. EVER.
Does anyone else remember someone putting All Star over this? I can’t find that video anywhere
cant wait till this comes out. ITS GONNA BE SICK!
The father bonded with her one last time before the three of them died... That's a real father.
@TheFloatingBrain actually, no, i didnt think about searching the chronological version, right after i posted this i found one ^^
Its crazy because you watch this and wonder what happens after well this guy has these play throughs and he goes out of his room while playing as logan and the room where that family dies is right beside his you can go in there and get the axe
Probably in a alternate universe, dead island had you control the dad and had a deep and depressing story like the trailer.
Our souls rest in peace, while our bodies still fight.

I reckon they should make something like this again for Riptide. RIP :(
It's this trailer and music, I was thinking about what happened
Still the best trailer ever made.
i forgot how beautiful and powerful this trailer was. theres nothing like this game. real 1s know
Looks amazing.
Best. Trailer. Ever.
What an amazing trailer! and sad at the same time!
and imagine if this a movie? Like..a movie with these graphics..damn...
this was out months ago, still amazing though!
whos watching this in 5013
RADIATED Man
Nice to know people are still making comments like these decades later
What a game man.
Played for atleast 6 times, never get bored.
Too bad there wasnt Dead Island 2... :(
This shit is sad...imagine if that was ur family
Dead island movie would already be awesome!
velkej velkej velkej mazec a nej trailer na gamesku jakej jsem kdy viděl, the best!!!
RIP Axis Studio
This is so fucking sad no joke I'm actually crying a bit rn
..what is this beautiful music? :o? Will anyone please mention it?
Now I wonder if you can see this family in game as zombies.
I know your comment is 3 months old, but wanted to say that you can actually find them in the prologue. They are dead on the floor of their room though.

Hey, thanks. I love Dead Island because of the unique atmosphere. I want to play it again then and try to see the things I've missed.
