Dead Island vs Left4Dead 2
Dead Island
Dead Island is a first-person, zombie-themed action game that is set in an open world tropical island getaway called Banoi. With a compelling storyline to keep you hooked, the game's campaign features scavenging for parts as well as crafting and augmenting weapons (mostly melee) in addition to the whole smashing zombies' brains in gameplay. Not to mention, you can even play cooperatively up to four players.The character progression in this game is simply astounding as well, allowing you to develop your character based on your preferences.So, to sum up, if you love zombie-slaying/bashing and you don't think The Walking Dead has enough of it, then you'll enjoy playing Dead Island.
Left4Dead 2
Left4Dead 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to Left4Dead. Featuring a brand new adventure and cast of characters as well as a wider variety of zombie-slaying weapons to choose from, Left4Dead 2 enjoyed an even higher level of success than the original. However, the game does have a bit of a rep for having a pretty toxic community when it comes to the game's multiplayer-based Versus mode. Apparently, anything less than perfection isn't tolerated among most players in the community so if possible, it's best to just play with the friends you already know.In short, Left4Dead 2 provides a refresh new experience, even for veterans of Left4Dead, and an exciting gameplay that fans of shooter games will likely enjoy. It is possibly the last game in the series since oddly enough, Valve is adverse the the number 3 as popular rumours go. Well, until then, mods will help to further extent the lifespan of this game far beyond 8 years (it was released in 2009).
