Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu has just announced that Dead Rising 2, the sequel to Capcom's zombie hit Dead Rising, is under development for the Xbox 360.
Details are few and far between at present but maybe Capcom's Gamers' Day event on Thursday will be the time to change all that.
The Dead Rising series has enjoyed a long and storied history over the years, but which game in the series is best?
Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.
Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...
Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁
Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.
They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.
They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.
This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.
Some video game weapons are so outlandish they could never realistically be used, and that's why they're on our list of the 10 most impractical weapons in gaming.
i hope its two player on and offline
give me online co-op an change the funky game save system an I'm there
capcom wud of been idiots not 2 do this, its nice 2 have a confirmation tho
at first i hated the save system as i got stuck at a save where i cudnt get 2 the fat butcher guy in time so i had 2 start the WHOLE game again. but if u use the save system correctly its a charm.
yeah 2 player wud be great
Wasnt there a rumour of a 2player upgrade via live for the original dead rising ??????
I agree coop would be a great addition.
I believe the funky save system is necessary to add difficulty to the game. Without the save system I would have never needed magazines (to enhance abilities), wasp queens, or juice mixes. Without it, DR would just be a boring hack in slash (like Dynasty Warriors with zombies) and how lame that would be.
However, I would like for them to refine the combat system and fix the AI bugs. Right now the combat system is too cumbersome for some of the situations they ask you to tackel. Without the AI bugs I most likely would still be stuck fighting the 3 snipers. I hope the fix both these issues. Either way I will buy DR2 the day it comes out.
This is what texting and using MSN has made me become. i just automatically abreviate EVERYTHING and miss words out, my english lit was excellend after school before these 2 things messed it all up lol
I just hope they sort out the move where youg guy dived wen u didnt want him 2
