Title: UPDATE: Dead Rising 2 to in fact not suck, Bebpo sent to stand in a corner
Post by: Bebpo on February 11, 2010, 08:54:11 PM
I just saw this trailer:
[youtube=560,345]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-LzX2yIVCs[/youtube]

...and apparently Blue Moon studios has no idea what they are doing.  The main guy doesn't say a word and has this vacant expression on his face and everything about the trailer is missing the personality of the first game.  It's like it's saying "here, hit zombies with stuff; the end".

Why didn't the DR team make the sequel  :'(  While it's nice that Capcom realizes this game is going to suck and says they aren't outsourcing anymore, the fact is that Dead Rising is AWESOME and that DR2 has to be a victim is bullshit.

Compare that trailer to a trailer from DR1 in the same theme:
[youtube=560,345]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb6yFvP52Y0[/youtube]

Look how much personality is in the animations of Frank. 
I hope this is good, but that clip looks like a shitty beta from Konami.

Eh, I didn't much care for the first game myself so the fact that a new developer is handling this gives me some hope, actually.  Hopefully the game world isn't divided up into small junks with lengthy load screens between everything.

I definitely miss the object motion blur, though.  That looked great in the original.

The only thing I get out of the trailers is that they want the main character to be bad ass with a biker jacket and stern expression.  Frank West was just kind a weird dude.  Kinda stocky, large forehead, nose and chin.  He was a cheesy journalist.

then again, I saw a video on gamespot that has the main character go into a sex shop and come out with a fishnet shirt and a dildo.

I have to admit though. They didn't do a good job with this trailer.

Who wants to play as a boring serious guy when zombies take over a casino? Not me.

I want Frank West and I want him now.

I mean, the guy walks out with two chainsaws strapped to a stick and he still has that "WHY SO SERIOUS" face.

I'll just chalk it up to be a bad (and really boring) trailer.

closest thing to an issue is the shooting.  I don't know if they changed it for DR2, but I wouldn't mind if they made the shooting controls feel more like most third person shooters now.

Well he's not wrong. I do prefer Japanese games and Japanese game philosophy and design but not because they're Jappa Jappa. I dunno, I just think they tend to be better developed, with an emphasis on depth and a tight experience rather than trying to give the player "options". That said, western games are fab too. Games just rock period, I guess!

I mean physics (the way he has to shift his weight to throw the lawn mower around), similar controls (stationary when throwing things).

It looks like they took the basics of DR1's engine and enhanced it (being able to move and shoot while in tps mode).

This quote from the destructoid preview worries me:

Quote
I asked about the save system, and they would only go as far as to promise that fans would be pleased. You can still restart the game entirely if you die, and while the save system won't be as... "stupid" as it was in the original, it should still retain that element of stress and difficulty.

There was nothing "stupid" about the save system in the original game, IMO.  It was perfect.

In a perfect world they would have crammed in all the hand-holdy save-anywhere checkpoint junk that the whiners wanted, but also included a hardcore mode that works exactly like DR1. If they do that I'll be thrilled.

The save system in DR1 was fine. In fact, it was the same as any other save system. You go to a bathroom to save. Big whoop. But if you save when one of your story missions has a sliver left, you can't continue anymore so you have to know when to save. Shock and fucking awe. I hate gamers.

People hated the save system because they don't like playing video games twice.  No joke.  It was like people had more problems that you only had one save slot because they wanted to go do one event, then load up that save and do the other one happening at the same time.  It's like replaying the game was a great injustice or something like that.

I guess I can see that, but at the same time, it's a one-man army against a sea of zombies.

Also, Mercenaries 2 proved that co-op can potentially break the hell out of the game. Co-op missions in that game were the buggiest, as they occasionally spawned twice as many enemies ON THE SAME COORDINATES to deal with the doubled threat. Cars overlapping and clipping through each other, looking like a teleportation accident from THE FLY. Lots of things can go wrong, apparently.

Sorry for the bump to his thread but it looks like some new Info on Dead Rising 2 came out

Stolen from GAF

Quote
Some Dead Rising 2 Info from the article:

1) Changed Save system with multiple save slots

2) Full 2 player co-op throughout the game

3) New interactive combo/environment kills system that replaces the old camera picture taking system to gain EXP.

4) Set in a casino that is itself a mall

5) Combining weapons to make new items like a football and grenade, boat paddle and chainsaw, etc.

Changed saved system is lame, but that comes as no surprise. The more worrying thing here is the inclusion of co-op. If they change the game's structure at all to accommodate for co-op, these developers can fuck off.

No, not initially as you were learning the game's basic mechanics.  It's like unlimited rewinds in Forza 3, you can avoid using it and just play it in the hardcore way if you want to but this gets rid of some of the learning frustration of Dead Rising's formula.

As long as they keep the Restart+ option, nothing changes.

off the top of my head, co-op could only really have a negative impact if both players were able to do two separate events at the same time.  Unless we're talking about the unlocked survivor mode where I guess you two will be fighting over juice and things like that.

and yeah, changing the save system is pretty lame but I don't think it is game breaking or anything.  You knew it was coming after a bunch of people were complaining about the first time.  I hope there is still a way to play it like the first game.

I'm totally down with a better save system but honestly unless the game handles a lot better than the original, I'll probably pass.

I just played it for the first time last month, and between the cumbersome controls and fucking incessant load screens I dunno how people can think it's anything better than just okay. Maybe that stuff would have been more tolerable if I'd played it 3 years ago.

Much better sandboxy stuff to play these days. Will still buy the sequel, though

It wasn't even tolerable back then honestly. Control wise I mean.

It seems to get a big pass because it was a decent to good game very early in the gen but the game had lots of problems even back then. I remember trying to show it to my nephew like a year ago and he hated it. And playing along aside him it was hard to remember myself why the game garnered so much attention.

DR doesn't rely on the missions. Those are side missions.

Fight bosses.

Kill Zombies.

Take a car into the garage and run over thousands of zombies.

Go into every fucking store and LOOT THE PLACE.

Explore every nook and cranny, collecting various mags.

The first time you play DR you're barely going to manage to save ANYBODY anyways. On subsequent playthroughs, the escorts are mostly easy as fuck and a non-issue so long as you give them sub machine guns because they have unlimited ammo.

Don't bother arguing with Himuro on this subject. He'll tell you the game is perfect and can do no wrong.

The controls felt bad 3 years ago. They feel even worse now.

From the moment you start shooting at the spanish guy on top of the building at the food court you realize you have a typically janky japanese 3rd person action game in effect.
Title: Re: Argh, why does dead rising 2 have to suck
Post by: Himu on April 11, 2010, 01:19:04 PM
No, DR isn't perfect. It has a myriad of issues such as the spawning convicts.

But I never thought controls or aiming was one of them.

Then again, I'm immune to wonky controls because of Jappa games. They'll feel weird at first, but you adjust and learn the game's control subtleties.

People complained about GTA4 controls and I loved those.

I dunno, I just think people are babies when it comes to controls. Unless they're god awful, usually in this day and age, they should be decent enough to play the game and aren't really worth complaining about.
Title: Re: Argh, why does dead rising 2 have to suck
Post by: Stoney Mason on April 11, 2010, 01:27:12 PM
I'm also one of the rare message board dweebs who likes GTA 4 in general. But the controls (especially the combat controls) are not very good in that game either. They were an improvement for the series but they still aren't up to snuff. Which becomes painfully more obvious when you try the MP section of that game.

If a game is primarily an action game, there is nothing wrong with asking for the controls to be as seamless as possible. It's why complaining about the controls in RE 5 especially as compared to Dead Space is a valid complaint even though I also liked RE 5.

I certainly understand why people like Dead Rising. It's somewhat non-linear and its sort of inventive about its structure and it has a lot of items and gadgets to play with. But actually rolling around and doing the actions in that game were not a highpoint for me. The idea of it was cool. But actually handling it wasn't so fun.

I think its possible to like a game and still not find the controls ideal or even great. RE 5 was a very fun game to me. And there may have been lots of reasons for them to justify to themselves why they made the controls like that. But when you compare it to other games, it felt lacking. You can get use to it. And even excel at the game with those controls. But its still not ideal.

It's like very old Resident Evil games. I can logically state the position that the controls are balls but I still enjoyed the games. Sometimes though the controls just become too much to bear. Especially if there are other games in the genre that are clearly doing it in a better manner.

I didn't even know there were guns in the game until I played it, so no. Everything felt like I was walking around in one of the mechs from Lost Planet. Like I said, I might have found the controls tolerable a few years back when there wasn't much criteria for comparison, but playing stuff like Saints Row 2 and Red Faction kinda spoiled me

It's strange how when this gen started and games were all "next-gen" compared to the cream of the crop PS2 titles, it seemed as though there was no way they'd become dated like those launch-year PS2 titles.  Yet, these days I don't think games like Blue Dragon, Kameo, Resistance, Crackdown or maybe even Dead Rising as shown by Optimo's experience hold up like they used to.

Kind of makes me glad I played them when they came out.  Since I don't really replay games, I'll just remember them fondly as great games at the time.

The only thing I get out of the trailers is that they want the main character to be bad ass with a biker jacket and stern expression.  Frank West was just kind a weird dude.  Kinda stocky, large forehead, nose and chin.  He was a cheesy journalist.

then again, I saw a video on gamespot that has the main character go into a sex shop and come out with a fishnet shirt and a dildo.

7 day survivor is pretty easy, you just stand around waiting to eat every 15 minutes or whatever and occasionally kill someone for more food. There's even an awesome tool here that shows when all the survivors/psychos spawn and how much food is in each location. http://hoddans.com/tool/drsurvival/

All you really need is to be level 50 and have 14+ hours to waste. The real mega buster is very useful too but its not completely necessary.

One thing worth mentioning about the real mega buster, is that you need to get an ending once you kill all 54000 zombies. If you just die and end the game that way... no mega buster for you.


I learned that the hard way.
Title: Re: Argh, why does dead rising 2 have to suck
Post by: The Sceneman on April 12, 2010, 06:49:00 AM
thanks for the heads up! (and ouch for you!) I actually just started on my genocider/mega buster run. If you just let he 72 hours run out thats an ending right? Its been ages since I last played this game.

Up to 12k zombies dead so far but its getting late and Im getting bored. I'll do this in a few play sessions I think... but getting 12k was relatively painless so I'll get there pretty quick.

After this it'll be the Saint/Transmissionary/Full Set run, the hardest run of all apparently.

Firing this up again.... well the memories are great. But its especially good re-discovering what a fucking masterpiece of contemporary game design this is. Easily in the top 5 games for 360, perhaps the best?

I hate to one of these forum guys (actually Im cool with it but whatever): If you didnt like this game, you just didnt 'get it'. Or you were a limp dick diaper baby who couldnt handle a real game

And this race to 1000 is going to own! DR2 comes out in August so we've got a couple of months.

Going for 7 day survivor is going to be HILARIOUS (I think). I will bunker down with chips, energy drinks and beer for later on. Will have to tell my friends I aint going to the strip club that night

It will be real-life SCENESTER RISING: 14 HOUR SURVIVAL MODE.

Make sure to hook a hose up to your pee-pee and run it out the nearest window so you can tinkle.


FWIW, I booted up Crackdown again the other day, and was stunned at how well it holds up. Not only that, the game has start-to-finish drop-in co-op, co-op mission replay, instanced game objects which appear per-user, so each player is not only running around in a shared world, but also in a world which reflects only their level of progress.

Changed cards, they kept charging the old card even though it was OLD and OUTDATED. I kept calling them in the past to cancel gold so I could resubscribe via silver with my new card, but their shitty tech support wouldn't let go of that card info. It took a lot of haggling and bitching to get them to take my fucking card off of Gold. In the mean time, they suspended my account because of the matter until it was cleared, which was bullshit as they were in error.

What a bunch of cunts. Experience made me so jaded I didn't want to give MS another dime to pay for online.

Would be a lot easier if you can change your credit card info on your 360 itself, but of course you can't, because MS are cunts and you have to do it the hard way.

They added the remove feature to the Xbox.com site a while ago, yes. But it only works if it's not attached to a current Gold subscription, I think.

The 7-day survivor is the real culprit for time-wasting. The zombie genocider is just boring, if you use the most simple method of using the cars and the two parking lots.

This game is insidious though. Just typing that out, I thought "Maybe I could give it another try today."  :-\

Im still grinding Zombie Genocider. 35k Zombies run over so getting there.

After that, Its a Tour Guide/ Frank the Pimp run. Only takes an hour or two apparently.

I still need "Snuff Shot B", so might do a 72 hour story mode run through for a plot refresher and to get that one.

You mean integrate co-op in to the story or just have a character swap?

Character swap doesn't seem like it'd be hard, but please, to call them lazy is a stretch with everything else they've done with the game.

I think lazy is an overused word when describing game devs, but it is disappointing. The fact that the co-op mode isn't story supported AND you play the same character makes me think co-op in DR2 was kind of an afterthought at the Capcom HQ.

thank god co-op isnt story supported! It would have ruined the game otherwise.

And of course co-op was a fucking afterthought, co-op today is like online multiplayer a few years ago: if your action game doesnt have co-op, reviewers dock points and distinguished mentally-challenged fellow gamers are "why no co-op?". Dead Rising is very much a single player experience.

I'll give DR2 co-op a whirl, sure. Especially if theres achievements involved. But it sounds to me like its just "hurr hurr lets waste some zombies together mang" mode. Which of course is not the point of Dead Rising to begin with.

There are always simpletons out there who will get hours of enjoyment from just killing zombies, just like the people who play GTA games with cheats and just run people over and blow up cars. I guess DR2 is probably catering towards that crowd a little.

Pandering is fine (necessary even, these guys have to get paid), as long as the main game core gameplay aspects remain relatively intact from the 1st game. Changing the save system isnt too bad as long as the game is still just as flexible in how you play it.

And Im not sure if I understand the hate for the new main character? Just becuase he's not as distinctive/goofy looking as Frank West doesnt mean his demeanour wont be as zany? I mean we know next to nothing about him?

"In the co-op, both players will play as Chuck Greene"

lazy devs.


It depends on how deeply integrated they choose to make it. Yeah, each player is using Chuck Greene, but each of them gets to use whatever clothes and accessories they've unlocked, so it's not like two identical characters are running around on the screen (cough Earth Defense Force /cough).

You might say, "Why not change up the facial features at least?" but even that invites a host of issues with no tangible returns on the effort. And where do you stop? Don't you also need a different voice for the character, since he's not the same? And how about a different angle on the story...?

Speaking of cutscenes, which the article says use the player model specific to the local player, what if they specifically refer to "Chuck," or "Greene," or "that dirty blonde haired guy," or his daughter, or some other bit of specific information? Should the development team have prepared separate assets for the co-op experience so the Player 2 could feel more immersed in being someone else's sidekick? And then have QA devote the extra time to confirming that the game's co-op specific cases work separately from the main player's?

This method is by the way, the same as used by Saints Row 2, which is largely revered on this board. Nobody bitched about it there.

Anyhow, yeah "lazy" devs. :smh

Yeah, that was a big challenge in the gameplay: how to not over-buff your survivors, while still giving them enough teeth to avoid going down instantly. I remember this also applied to Frank, in that he needed to wield something more delicate or precise than the clown's saws or the sledgehammer if he was battling near the survivors.

I've accidentally taken out some of my own "precious cargo" by trying to clear the path for them, only to have one of them run right into the business end of the sledgehammer. :-/

Title: Re: Argh, why does dead rising 2 have to suck
Post by: The Sceneman on April 25, 2010, 11:23:09 PM
what Ive been doing is setting way points ahead of Frank for the survivors, then clearing the path for them with the Clown Saw (love the Clown Saw!) while theyre running to the waypoint. I found having them stay put while you clear the path just made them get munched on much easier. You have to keep them moving.

the clown saw will break, but if you collect the 3 right books, you can kill 2000+ zombies before it craps out. Also if you exit and re-enter Wonderland Plaza the saw will re-spawn by the Space Rider ride.

For a low level dude you should probably get your level up first before you try some of the harder run-throughs? Either you can enjoy the story (try and snap pictures of all psychos/surivors and do as many scoops as you can) or if you want to power level and unlock a sweet weapon, go for zombie genocider.

Waypoints + guns = far less babysitting. Seriously, give your group of survivors a couple guns (shotguns and machine guns are best) and you won't need to do much babysitting. I always tried to pick up a few weapons in the gun shop whenever I passed by since they help out quite a bit. Doing that, the only time I lost a survivor was toward the end when I ran 5 or 6 of them through all the zombies in Paradise Plaza at night time. Which leads me to my next point - always try to keep at least one queen for emergency situations. There's a photography magazine you can get that makes identifying which zombies are carrying a queen much easier.

Post by: chronovore on April 26, 2010, 01:24:45 AM
Isn't it dirt-simple to create and capture your own queen? I'm recalling something about Orange Juice, but peeking at my Achievements, I haven't played it in almost exactly 3 years, so I'm probably misremembering something.

Am Nintenho, in many cases you'll be well-served by restarting the game rather than lose your hard-earned PP. It's possible to be the Save System Master, but replaying through the game with a higher powered Frank can be very enlightening, and it will always give you a better chance of not falling to the same trap/psycho/horde as last time.

the achievement guide at x360a.org. It was pretty concise/vague so thats where I went wrong. Best hit up gfaqs for something more thorough and well written

Post by: The Sceneman on April 27, 2010, 01:17:55 AM
thats what boned me, I saved my game in Paradise before the cultists were there. reloaded my save and was greeted with the cultist cutscene  :'( (Game clock was like 1pm). Then the Above the Law scoop gets borked, only one chick tied up as opposed to four in the clothes shop. I tried working around it, like going to wonderland, killing the dude hanging off bunny, going back to paradise, then back to wonderland, hoping the scoop would get fixed, but nope.

Im going to try the one at Gamefaqs when I next try and tackle this. Its more fiddly I think but much more detailed and thorough. Its step-by-step guide so theres much less assumption on my part and less margin for error.

As I said before it wasnt a fruitless run, got like 80% of the PP stickers in my spare time so can finish those up so it wont all be for naught!

Still a bit bummed but Dead Rising owns so it aint too bad.

Are you sure thats not just the PP count for that run-through?

With PP Collector put of the way Im gonna start up the Saint/Tranmissionary run tonight hopefully. Cant wait! Dead Rising is still just so good, best game on 360.

Playing through for Zombie Genocider. I blame both of you. :lol

I am using that Gamefaqs document as well, but I'm not going to do Transmissionary. I'm positive I'd get bitten and cut off the message before it finishes, he'd call me back "DON'T HANG UP ON ME LIKE THAT" and I'd have to replay from the previous Save point.  :-\ No, I think I'll live without it, since I'm also planning on not doing the Survivor ones.

What's the command again for getting the survivors to charge to the waypoint? I seem to remember one, but I may have just taken to spamming Y Button while clearing a path for them.

Currently at 40K zombies killed on my Zombie Genocider run, so I can get the megablaster and then do Saint. Looking forward to dancing with that clown, and the butch dyke with the four women hostages so I can get Frank the Pimp, a la my current avatar rags:

what I find to be really effective is to "preemptively" set your way points, so the survivors can shuffle around and start making their way to a safe spot across a sea of zombies. Then just go swinging clearing a path with your clown saw while theyre already going. Saves them standing still and getting munched while you clear a path. Also if you clear a path, then set the waypoint, chances are some more zombies will have shambled into your wake. I found it to be difficult at first but once you get the hang of it it isnt too bad. Playing a lot of Battalion Wars helped...

so youve given up on Saint altogther? This must be the cheev that separates the men from the mega-men! My drive to succeed is absolute. I will get that cheevo.

At the very least, it separates the busters from the real mega busters. No, wait, that's Zombie Genocider.

HEY! I just popped Zombie Genocider without finishing the game. Neat. I guess I have to be on the helipad in a few hours to get the Real Mega Buster though.

I got the mega buster and then started THQ's GOW clone, Conan, thinking it would be less violent and maybe playable in front of kids/wife. WTF was I thinking?
Title: Re: Argh, why does dead rising 2 have to suck
Post by: The Sceneman on May 03, 2010, 01:09:47 AM
lol, so Conan was violent was it? I imagine there would be lots of Battle Axes connecting with faces etc.

man I was set on finishing up the Saint run tonight but Ive had such a bananas day at the office I dunno. Might just play some Borderlands because its easy and you can relieve stress by shooting shit in the face for several hours.

Im really enjoying the Saint run, its hard as nails and Ive had several nail biting, edge of my seat moments, and several victory fist-pumps when Ive gotten my crew of 6 survivors back to the security room, after answering all of Otis' calls along the way, and with 10 in-game minutes to spare before the next case expired! Youre always playing down to the wire and it FEELS GOOD. 28 hours to go, currently all survivors, cases, and scoops accounted for. Got it in the bag mayne

UPDATE: finished main story, all scoops done, got Transmissionary, Full Set and Snuff Shot B. Now just gotta wait out the last 10 hours, get to the helipad, get ending A, then beat Overtime Mode for my Saint cheevo

Conan is a great GoW clone.
It felt a little bit more technical than god of war.  like combos really mattered.
Combos and weapon choices all matter. It's a serious tactical brawler, and I'm having a real love/hate relationship with it. Mostly love.

There are some sequences that are, well, hard on the Hard difficulty: I just finished the dragon sequence. 6 stage boss battle? Holy mackerel. And it's a well-designed boss except it's virtually impossible to differentiate between its normal multiple-hit strike and the unblockable. Or it may be that environmental hazards cause continuous blocking to fail. All I know is sometimes I blocked every single attack, and other times Conan took an assful of giant serpent even though I was blocking and suddenly the block was broken by its attack.

Mostly very good stuff, and it seems like Nihillistic S/W was in love with the source material.

just got the Saint achievement!  :D

only need Frank the Pimp and 7 day survivor now (well, I need Tour Guide and 5 day survivor also but those are pack-in deals)

Interestingly, I unlocked the Jason mask at the end of my Saint playthrough? I guess it just checks for what cheevos you have unlocked when you get an ending, it doesnt matter what playthrough you got them.
Title: Re: Argh, why does dead rising 2 have to suck
Post by: The Sceneman on May 06, 2010, 05:10:24 PM
so youre going to try Saint again? Do it man, prove youve got the chops!

Here are a few things that might help:
-I used the guide iconoclast posted, but there are quite a few errors in regards to Otis call/scoop times. This guide here:http://www.gamefaqs.com/xbox360/928326-dead-rising/faqs/44422 is 100% correct, and serves as a good checklist for the Transmissionary cheev. I used the guides in conjunction with each other.

- If a scoop doesnt call in at the said time, chances are you have a group of survivors with you (or some to rescue), as there can only be a total of 8 in the mall at any one time. For example: Above the Law didnt call in at Noon on 20th, becuase that scoop has 4 survivors and I already had a few with me. I thought I was FUBAR'ed, but I took my current group back to the security room, then upon returning to the Warehouse Otis called with the scoop at 1.20pm. Im not sure how long you have until they cut off for good, though.

-Also the guide that icono posted assumes you are superman in terms of speed, so you will have to use a bit of initiative sometimes and juggle the objectives accordingly, depeding on where you are in the mall. There were times when the FAQ said to take survivors back to the security room, and go back and get someone else. Chances are you can often pick up more survivors on the way and save time on backtracking.

Lastly, good luck! Save when youre doing well, but not too often so you dont save yourslef into a hole. If youve wasted a bit of time due to the distinguished mentally-challenged AI (happens a lot), reload your save, so you can optimise your time. Its a tough cheev, but totally do-able, and really stisfying.

alright biches

I got 960/1000 now. "only" need 5 and 7 day survivor cheevs for my 1000. Apparently these arent hard at all if you have the mega buster, but I need to commit to an entire saturday to get them.... hmm.

Iconoclast, could you fill me in on how you prepared for this run? i.e what FAQ is best? There are a lot of resources on the web about infinity mode.
Title: Re: Argh, why does dead rising 2 have to suck
Post by: iconoclast on May 12, 2010, 05:23:38 PM
I just used this tool and went for it, didn't bother reading any FAQs. http://hoddans.com/tool/drsurvival/

Just kill most/all the psycopaths and survivors when they spawn, because they will drop food for you. Once the sniper family spawns in the park, go grab the car in front of the underground area and run them all over. They drop TONS of food you can live off of for a long time. Beyond that, everything else is pretty straight forward; someone spawns, kill them, grab their food and find a safe area to camp for a while. And of course, make sure you grab the three survival books before you eat anything.

Keep in mind that there's a glitch that will crash your game if you enter the food court between certain hours on day 3 or 4. Can't remember exactly when, but that tool has a warning for it when it's approaching.

Agree that Chuck looks boring.

Try to look constipated even more, faggo.

I'm not jazzed about the game either. I'm purely interested based on the fact it's Dead Rising. My interest in the game will rise when I get impressions from people who liked Dead Rising for the same reason I liked it: tight mission design and emphasis on planning and structure and survival, more so than another boring 3d beat-em-up. The people want a beat-em-up though, they're easy to spot and just as to easy to ignore.

I feel the same way about that I do about Crackdown 2.  I want it because I liked the first game, but everything I see just makes it look exactly like the first game.  Like both games were surprise hits and they didn't know how to go from there.  I would feel the same way of Demon's Souls 2 was announced and it was just more of the first game.  It's not that I don't want them, it's just hard to get that excited for something that looks similar to the games I have at home.  I'll end up buying both and liking them, probably.

actually, what the new Red Faction game is doing is cool to be more than more RFG.

aside from chuck not being half as awesome as frank everything else i've seen of the game looks great. what i need to know now is how the mission structure is going to be (hopefully you can fail by taking too long just like the first).

regardless if they get it all right i will probably still buy simply because of zombie co-op killing.

Dead Rising: Case Zero is going to set you back 400 Microsoft Points on Aug. 31, 2010. On top of that, Dead Rising Executive Producer Keihi Inafune announced that the experience points and costumes you earn in Case Zero will carry over to Dead Rising 2.

As to the low price, Inafune says they could've sold the game for 800 Microsoft Points but decided against it so that everyone could get their hands on the title. He says the company is making zero dollars off the game.

I am intrigued by your ideas, and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

Man, I'm up for more mixes, vegas style. FREE DRINKS IN THE CASINO, plus blended Zombrex, and some catnip. Befriend the tiger. Make it kill zombies. I'm down with this plan. I'd like to be a part of it.

I dunno. I think I posted about it in this thread. I didn't really hate it, but I did think it was a little dull. There were also lots of load screens and the controls felt a little tanky, but I think I might be too picky about controls. Anyway, I was having more fun with other sandbox stuff at the time (SR2 and Red Faction) so I kinda just dropped it in favor of those and never got around to trying it again. I'll run through it eventually though, because I do want to try the sequel

Plus it's not free.

Way to go dumbasses. The game has next to no hype now due to the delay and there's only a demo - which really isn't a demo but a new game entirely to bridge DR and DR2 - you have to pay for to access.

Capcom am stupid.

RELEASE A DEMO OF DR2, NOT THIS STUPID DR DLC CRAP, FOR FREE, ON 360, PS3, AND PC.

I have access to 360's whenever I wanna play a 360 so playing it's no issue. But still. This game is fated to die like Crackdown 2.

Even so, this is a game you'll replay over and over again. So you'll eventually be skippin the cutscenes during the next playthroughs, leaving you with unlimited loading screens anyway.

The game is ok. Played for almost two hours straight. There's nothing new here besides the item-mix. You won't like the game if you didn't like the original.
And yes, the loading is annoying and the graphics somehow look worse than the original. Lots of framedrops too.

Grinded my character up to lvl 7 now and restarted the game 5 times. I'm glad the safe house isn't so far away anymore. Makes it easier to escort survivors.

Neither will I. Had to use Amazon Super Free Shipping

Amazon has 99 cent release day shipping available for Dead Rising 2.

I didn't see it. And that's $1 I'd have to spend, so I opted for free instead

Why'd you buy it through Amazon, anyway?  Kmart has a $20 gaming coupon.

I got it for free

Is there anyone on this board who hasn't played it? Pretty sure it's been well-passed around.

Now, the USD400 replica of Chuck's leather bike jacket, that'd be nice. It's probably in Japanese "FREE SIZE" (a "medium" in Amurican sizes).

that good huh? I sohuld hit up my man Chronovore and co-op this shit.

I got near the end of the game but put it down for some reason. I might just restart the game in co-op so I'm at a good level to begin with

I don't really like it either, but it got wedged into my brain after playing DR1.

I'm down for that, as it was plenty of fun, and there are still 'cheevs to be had. But be forewarned that you'll need additional partners. I probably will never unlock the "play the whole game in co-op" 'cheev. It's just too many hours. Try Sho Nuff; he doesn't have any kids yet.
