Interesting idea, but doesn't fit too well
soad667 | Feb. 17, 2012 | See all soad667's reviews »This DLC is the bonus DLC included with a Dead Island preorder. For everyone else, it's a normal paid DLC. Free or not, i found it not being as fun as i expected. The major issue is that whenever you die in the arena you lose money, same as when you die in the normal game. And you're going to die a lot. I would prefer it being separate from the main game, so it won't punish you that much for going in. The sure thing is that you will die, once you pass the door of any of the four arena levels.
It supports co-op as the normal game and playing with others is the only way you have chances of surviving long enough in there to actually make it worthwhile.
Overall, it's a decent addition that could be better separated from the main game and somewhat cheaper in price.
