Riptide is basically an add-on. A DLC, not a game.

Riptide is a completely seperate game that I haven't played.

And then Riptide

Not really. Dead Island is a good, if buggy, game. And it still holds true that at the time it was one of the better more recent games I had played. I had a lot of fun playing it and I enjoyed it.

You regret that post now, don't ya?

I have to say, Dead Island is probably the best game I have played in a long time
