My blockbuster already had this out to rent for PS3. I should've grabbed it.

I'll let everyone else figure out Dark Souls, Dead Rising should be much easier to take shaft to tip.

I'm gonna have to import OTR anyhow, local RRP is $80

Yeeeeowch. That's expensive.

Still, all this is little more than window-dressing, which means the most significant addition to Off The Record is its Sandbox mode. It's not a series first - Dead Rising's Infinite Mode is the obvious inspiration - although this time, Frank's health doesn't deplete over time. Instead, 30 challenge missions are spread across Fortune City, unlocked as you pass kill targets, with each carrying three medal targets and associated monetary rewards.

Quote

The objectives are generally fairly straightforward, from killing a certain number of zombies in a strict time limit to earning a certain amount of PP with Frank's camera. In one sense, it's the ultimate no-pressure way to play Dead Rising, but the ability to earn PP to carry over into the main game feels a little cheap - it's easy to grind a few simple missions to level up quickly, rewarding persistence over skilful play.

Frank has a Bluetooth headset in place of Chuck's transceiver, and he can take Zombrex jabs on the move rather than returning to base. A handful of fresh psychopaths and survivors are scattered around Fortune City, but it's only the new combo weapons that really make an impact.

sounds like co-op gold!

New features?

There's new content, in that there are new combo weapons. There's a little bit more real estate, with an added section of the mall. But new features? Are you just referring to the return of Frank's photojournalist gameplay from DR1, or does the missing online count as a new feature, bear greaser?

I addressed all of this in the super official thread, thx

They're pretty much there, man. First post.

I forgot to add one:

- Improved saving for casual wussyboys

Hope this helps.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #13 on:** October 12, 2011, 09:52:35 AM »

afaik new features =

new area

new cool ass sandbox mode (which me and you WILL co-op)

new combo weapons

chronovore · « **Reply #14 on:** October 12, 2011, 06:26:28 PM »

I guess Sandbox Mode is a feature. And the return of photography is a feature.

That's two. Technically, two allows for a plural usage.

THIS ROUND GOES TO YOU, DEMI.

demi · « **Reply #15 on:** October 12, 2011, 10:41:23 PM »

I did the intro and it's already worth the purchase. I love Dead Rising.

chronovore · « **Reply #16 on:** October 15, 2011, 07:31:45 PM »

I'm sorry I clicked that spoiler, but that's also super-awesome.

or i like dead rising and i'm not a poor who complains over trivial things

Bebpo · « **Reply #19 on:** October 16, 2011, 12:14:02 AM »

I like Dead Rising a lot, and ate crow when white-people DR2 was good.

But I still need to get around to playing Case West, so I'll get to OTR when it's $20 or something at Black Friday next month.

I WANT this game, but have no $$$
