Anyone seen it yet? (http://www.youtube.com/verify_age?next_url=http%3A//www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DWcnD_p3bc94%26feature%3Dplayer_embedde d)
The first one is better, but this is not bad at all.
But I really want to know more about the game itself...

Yeah, the first trailer was pretty great but the gameplay videos aren't doing much for me. Seems like it could be fun for a few hours, but it's way too sandbox-y for me. I want strong narratives and dramatic personalities, damnit, not just a dude driving around an island doing quests and killing zombies for the laughs!

edit: hm, I might have sounded a bit too negative there. I'm still going to get the game in all likelyhood, I just feel like this gameplay doesn't really reflect the mood of the first trailer. The trailer was dark and depressing and all that, but the gameplay just seems to be your basic fun park of crazy driving and making a bloody mess out of dudes that you don't need to feel sorry for.
Time will tell, of course, but I still feel that the zombie sandbox has already been done enough times.
