So Dead Island is out. I for one am loving it, but what I want to know is what type of weapon specialisation would you choose in the impending Zombie apocalypse?

Dead Island has 4 characters each with a specialisation:

Sam B: Blunt Weapons

Xian Mei: Sharp Weapons

Purna: Guns

Logan: Throwing Weapons

Obviously this is a realistic question so take into account the realistic factors If you were to be a weapon specialist there might be a distinct lack of ammo or guns depending on the legal restrictions in your country!

The most creative answer (with a bit of detail) will win themselves 1000XP, with all entries earning 200XP

Rules

• Must follow BeefJack Rules!
• All entries need to be posted on this thread
• Every entry will recieve 200XP with one selected receiving 1000XP
• All entries need to be in by friday 23rd of September

Head here to Have Your Say now!

I know its been a while since we have had a round up for the month, and for that I apologise, but from now on you should start to see some more activity on that front.

Over the last month we have seen some competitions including the flash game competition for DNA where @newtothegame won a copy of Metal Drift on Steam, and various XP competitions/giveaways. There will be plenty more of these over the coming months so keep your eyes peeled. As always any ideas for competitions or forum games just let me know and I would love to get them up on the site! We have also had a lot of new members joining up and some new first time posters on the forum which is awesome.

This month has also seen the start of a new feature on the editorial side of the site which we are calling have your say. This is a feature where we want you to give your opinions on a topic. You can find the first and second topic here and here with a new one each week. Whats more we will be selecting our favourite comment to receive a whopping 1000XP.

What have I been up to?

So the last month has been as busy as ever for me. I finished a job, migrated back to my parents house for the summer, started a new job and still found some time for games too. Most of what I have been playing has been documented quite well in this nice little thread but I have generally just been playing games to help me tick over to Deus Ex: Human Revolution and for the start of the Rugby world cup! This month I finally gave in and bought a copy of Call Of Duty Black Ops to see what the fuss was about. In all honesty it was a very underwhelming experience due to the praise the game has had but still a good game and obviously people love it! I will try not to make the September round up a Rugby World Cup round up as that will take most of my time next month! I am very excited for Gears of War 3 which is only weeks away and will probably manage to pull me away from the world cup!

Coming up

I am going to look to do more competitions which will be based on

• Gears of War 3 themed competition
• Flash game XP giveaway
• Lots more awesome stuff!

Have an awesome September!

The second week of our new feauture ‘Have Your Say’ is now live. This week the topic we look at is:

If you could only ever play one more game in your life, what would it be? Any game (released or unreleased), any platform, any era – only one rule: it can’t be a game you’ve played before.

As with last weeks our favourite comment will be awarded with 1000XP.
