Was DR's music always that bad?
-
Hey I like the mall theme :(
-
Was DR's music always that bad?
Shit I didn't even notice that. The only music I remember in DR was the bad ass metal tracks that played during psycho fights, the funny hip hop song that played during the convict fight, and the ambient mall music. This game even fucked up the sound design. Christ.
-
It looks like they simplified the combat.
-
combat wasn't that difficult to begin with

:lol :lol :lol
Its as if its based in suburban mini mall :lol. HOW WE GONNA' GET OUT? THERE'S LIKE, 10 ZOMBIES
-
its still amazing to me that Capcom developed this internally, but felt like farming out Dead Rising 2. It took Capcom's top men to uglylify, decolorize, and distinguished mentally-challenged fellow one of their own games. Crikey.

killing zombies while that song played :bow :bow :hyper :hyper
-
looks-wise it's not that bad at all, but the lack of, uh, undead really kills it
it's like whoever was playing was running directly into the few zombies scattered around on purpose so they would attack :lol
-
Where the zombies at?
-
Amazing.

Seriously, what were they thinking. A ps2 could somewhat approximate an ugly dead rising game. But let's limit ourselves to the RE4 engine and shut down the compelling aspects of a zombie infested mall.
I'm starting to think developers make this kind of failware to justify their lack of commitment to a platform when the investors come a-callin.
edit: Watched a few more vids... the zombie count wasn't as miniscule as I thought. But the controls look horrendous. :/
-
Think of the sales figures for this game. :drool
-
I read somewhere that there were up to TWENTY zombies on screen at one point.
Also it's mission based, there's no free roaming :rofl
-

I swear you were more intelligent as a ninthing apologist. But I guess you were always like this. Makes me wonder what other distinguished mentally-challenged fellows I'm not noticing.
ANYWAYYYYYYY, the game already bombed in Japan (6000 first day!), so no one is celebrating this.
-
Always hilarious.
They really should have gone for zombies in the style of the ganados from RE4, however. Sure, it would have changed the game further, but that would make the lower numbers more acceptable. Classic zombies only really work when there are huge numbers of them. If
they were more threatening, the lower numbers would be more acceptable.
It also seems that far fewer items can be used by the player in this version. When you'd walk into a store in the 360 version you'd see those little usage prompts all over the place.
It's still ugly as sin, though.
-
It also looks like the size of the environments and how many weapons are on the ground is reduced.
I think one of the main reasons that they went with a mall theme in DR was that there were going to be lots of zombies on screen and so there needed to also be lots of weapons on screen. Instead of this spin-off, they should have just made a direct sequel to RE4 where you play Leon. And has co-op or waggle or something new.
-
horrible
Good thing it bombed. Hope Capcom learned their lesson.
-
I've never watched a video of this before. Holy SHIT at the lack of zombies, what's the point of this game? Didn't State of Emergency have dozens of people on screen back in 2002 or so?
You could probably run through this whole game without killing a zombie.

ANYWAYYYYYYY, the game already bombed in Japan (6000 first day!), so no one is celebrating this.
The 360 version only did marginally better [about 80k overall]. Of course, that was with a universe base that was infinitely smaller.
-

I don't think it's a question of numbers alone so much as numbers plus interaction. There were plenty of PS2 games with lots of characters on screen, but the collision detection, animation, and general interaction was simplistic as hell. For Dead Rising to work well, you have to have more complex interactions and I don't think the Wii could handle that with a large number even if they were to further reduce detail levels.

80k isn't exactly lighting up the charts. And the Wii version only has sales from the first day, it's a safe bet that it'll sell more than 6,000 overall.

Dead Rising Wii 6000k first day ( I don't expect this to sell more than 20k in total)
Dead Rising X360 80k
Wii userbase 7,5mln
X360 userbase was probably at 200k when DR was released.
Absolutely horrible attach rate for the Wii version.

It's pretty obvious that the vast majority of Wii developers aren't even trying.

I'm pretty sure that the best looking Wii games right now are Brawl, Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime 3, and Super Mario Galaxy.
Heck, even Excite Truck looks better than 90% of the Wii games on the market right now.
-
It's pretty obvious that the vast majority of Wii developers aren't even trying.
Even when they try the results don't match up to a good looking Xbox1 game. It's laughably sad how the Wii has worse graphics than arguably all 3 consoles last gen. Wii graphics remind me of PSP games most of the time.

bububububut wii is more powerful than the xbox!
last time i buy into the hype of a nintendo console that ain't portable. I actually liked the idea of wii, but it's just a shit system. Triumph and Drinky were RIGHT. AS USUAL.
-
When people say the Wii is more powerful than the Xbox, what exactly do they mean? The 07 Patriots were much better than the 07 Giants, but which team won the Super Bowl?
While the Wii is "more powerful" than the Xbox, the average Xbox game is more technically impressive than the average Wii game and the average Xbox developer was much more serious about making technically impressive games than the average Wii developer.

What's doubly sad about your case is that you were TOTALLY JUST BUYING IT FOR ZERUDA! REALLY! HONESTLY! And you JUST COULDN'T WAIT LIKE FOUR WEEKS UNTIL IT CAME OUT FOR THE GAMECUBE! Which ended up being the better version, no less.
But yeah, when it comes to Nintendo everyone should just listen to Drinky. I'm a poor man's Drinky Crow, but I'm usually right too I suppose.
-
The best looking Wii games are probably Mario Galaxy and Metroid Prime 3. But I don't know if they look better than an average Xbox game. They're definitely polished, though.

was conker 60 fps? still looks amazing today.
I've heard people (on B3D) say that wii is more powerful than xbox but it's harder to get out the power because it doesn't have certain shaders or whatever. I don't know. Rogue Squadron 3 is the most technically impressive game that the wii can play I think and that looks better to me than any xbox game (outside of the foot missions). It's sad that Factor 5 can't make a Wii exclusive so that we can get a good benchmark to judge other games against.

That... doesnt help you at all. Where is he bitching? The prosecution states again, the posts are celebratory and the defense is a fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellow who doesnt know context

How is his post not celebratory? He's laughing at the fact no one wants, even the people in the cesspool of wii gaming.
-

I guess it depends on how you want to interpret that. It seems it's celebratory, but only in the sense that this provides some excuse for developers to not continue making 'real' Wii games, dick breath.
-
No, it's saying no one wants DR wii because it looks awful. Where did he bring up "real" wii games in his post?

YOURE FUCKING DEMENTED OBLIVION

If every single B grade Wii game flops, and it starts getting 100% F-grade casual games instead of 95% like it is now, I am ok with that.

His post right before the sales comparison:
horrible
Good thing it bombed. Hope Capcom learned their lesson.
When he said he hoped Capcom learned their lesson, did you think he meant the lesson about not making shitty games or by not making games for Wii period?

this game is awful :'(
I was hoping I could find some entertainment because of RE4 controls and a focus on shooting, but it's just trash. First game in a long, long time I want to return.

I like how the guy in the video is trying to hit the zombies with the bat and keeps missing. :lol
The idea of using RE4-style gun aiming is cool and all, but it just comes together so damned AWFUL. Why didn't Capcom just develop a companion game to Resident Evil 5 using the RE4 engine? Not necessarily a port, but a different game and story to alongside it. I bet it would have sold better than this will.

Jesus, the mall is depressingly empty.
I never realized that. Maybe, just maybe, this is all intentional on Capcom's part. Dead Rising on the 360 came out before the recession hit. For the 2009 edition, it would better reflect the reality every nation and most malls face if they were now pruned of most of their inhabitants.
Maybe Capcom is trying to make a Dead Rising game that better reflects our more troubled economic times and thusly functions as a commentary on the soul and physical rotting of unchecked spending and commercialization. That there are fewer "zombies" could mean that the old practice of propping up our economy by spending on services and luxury goods is yielding diminishing returns and as such is unsustainable, and less pervasive then in years past.
its all actually very clever on Capcom's part. GOTY stuff really.
-
And wow, you can't jump in this game.
I've never seen a more downgraded game before.
-
there arent convicts in this version
superior version confirmed
-
No song in the courtyard and no convicts; just silence and one-hit-kill poodles and parrots.
You 'jump' by going to context sensitive locations on the map, then do the action command (Z + A) to jump over that one specific spot. Normally you can't even walk, or jump, over a 1 foot bump in the ground.

Holy shit what a complete failure.

The convicts were pretty frustrating, until you unlocked the bathroom shortcut

no

I've only encountered them twice. I've beat them once in the beginning and once half-through the game.
They're not so hard. Just kill the one standing behind the turrent. Take the turrent and kill the rest.
-
Holy shit, Swaggaz you bought this game? :lol
:cry
Part of it was to see if it would be hilariously bad; the other was to find enjoyment from the RE4 controls. I haven't found entertainment either way. First game since Spider-Man 3 on the PS3 I'm returning. This game also is the reason why I'm signing up for Gamefly in the next week. It made me realize that my standards are actually higher than expected; this is coming from someone who thought Spider-Man Web of Shadows was a worthwhile buy. Most depressing game I've played in a long, long time. Don't buy it. Not even the "ignorance is bliss" approach to gaming will save you here. It's a bad version of Dead Rising and it's a bad game on its own.
:bow Capcom :bow2
Announcing the sequel for the 360 before seeing if this shit-port would sell better or not.
And there are four big positives with the game: 1) proves more power doesn't just mean better graphics; 2) improves Dead Rising shooting controls (and ruins the far superior 360 melee in the process.) ok, that's actually more of a negative; 3) makes me want to play Dead Rising on the 360, again; 4) finally convinced me to get Gamefly.
-
You actually said this improves something, lol
Sorry, as #1 Dead Rising fan, that is pretty much wrong
-
I think there's only one ntard at ngaf who likes the game.
He's all "but if you don't compare it with the X360 version, it's pretty good!"
What a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow. Why shouldn't they be comparable? Someone who already played the X360 version should NEVER play this game for longer than 10 minutes.
And that's exacly what I did. The whole experience is such a downgrade. DR Wii is bad game on its own, but after you've played the X360 version, it gets worse..
-
Swaggaz just wanted to contribute to future "kusoge" topics. I think I spelled that wrong.
I think you have too much money to burn.
-
You actually said this improves something, lol
Sorry, as #1 Dead Rising fan, that is pretty much wrong
nah, it does improve on shooting. But if you didn't play Dead Rising, you'd know that you never need to shoot a gun because melee is fuckawesome ripping out guts and climbing on zombies n' shit. They take away all the awesome melee, put better combat, and the result is a negative from a positive plus a super negative. The shooting controls are RE4 Wii if they had the only two weak points on a zombie being the Head and Everything else, then took away all the satisfaction of shooting/hitting an enemy. In RE4 there was a great crunch when you blew someones head off, here the head pops off without a sound at times; other times you'd shoot an enemy and he'd die without any real idea why. The worst is probably the explosions, which just have zombies go from standing vertical to laying on the ground dead. Sometimes using the Katana won't even cut an enemy, yet they'd still die.
-
Dear Capcom,
What's up? How are you doing? I wanted to talk to you about Dead Rising on Wii.
You release this shit but don't localize the Sengoku Basara 2/Heroes double pack and/or Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom for the U.S.? Two AWESOME Wii games?
What the fuck?
But I still love you for Street Fighter IV, (Just cut out the DLC unlock key costumes next time) Bionic Commando, Lost Planet 2, Dead Rising 2, and Resident Evil 5. Plus it's the Wii and who really gives a shit, amirite? If it means some added revenue to fund the previously-mentioned titles, s'okay I guess.
Your pal,

In watching that video, the graphics really aren't all that bad. Certainly not bad enough to make me feel bad about playing it, if I hadn't already played the original. The major problem is the almost complete lack of zombies, which completely breaks the whole game. There's absolutely no danger at all, you just wander aimlessly and sometimes chase down a zombie and hit it with something. How did Capcom think dropping the zombie count that low was going to work?
-
Difficulty isn't exactly a concern with the Wii audience.

There's a difference between low difficulty and no challenge at all and this definitely looks like the latter.
