Tech Comparison: Dead Rising 2 PC

Eurogamer writes: Yesterday's release of Dead Rising 2 on PC presents us with an interesting example of all that is good and bad about mainstream gaming releases on the computer platform. By default it is the best version of Capcom's zombie sequel, and if you shop around it is by far the cheapest. However, it also highlights quite dramatically just how much PC gaming technology is being held back by the technical limitations of the current generation of HD consoles.

"However, it also highlights quite dramatically just how much PC gaming technology is being held back by the technical limitations of the current generation of HD consoles."

This exactly the reason why, even hardware from 4 years back doesnt need upgrades since even that beats the console experience.

Personally i have decided i will be doing no more upgrades, AMD & Nvidia can go out of business for all i care.

joining the ever-growing list of games that are available on PC,PS3,360 but NOT on Wii because of Wii's weak hardware.

LOL!

Lol if AMD & Nvidia out of business due to PC gamers not needing upgrades, i wonder what the next gen consoles would use.

Snakefist305625d ago (Edited 5625d ago )

I hope that Sony will use Ati for PS4.Nvidia Suck!!! Ati is Hundred times better than Nvidia.

nickjkl5625d ago (Edited 5625d ago )

amd nvidia are going to be out of buisness soon enough silicon is only going to last so far currently being estimated to last until 2020 before being replaced with something else like atoms or bio metrics due to the amount of heat they produce and energy they utilize

"Lol if AMD & Nvidia out of business due to PC gamers not needing upgrades, i wonder what the next gen consoles would use."

People are still buying the new gen GPUs. I mean, seriously, there are still people with the obsession of maxing out Metro 2033 on DX11 and Crysis at over 60 fps minimum at 1920x1200... or above. O.O And running console ports at 120fps+ is just amazing.

"I hope that Sony will use Ati for PS4.Nvidia Suck!!! Ati is Hundred times better than Nvidia."

Nvidia has always been known to have the more powerful GPUs of each gen. ATI generally has the best price/performance, although the GTX 460 is in a perfect spot for Nvidia right now for price/performance, and the HD 5870 somewhat closed the gap between the power of Nvidia and ATI graphics cards.

Oh and if you want PhysX support (which, btw, is simply amazing when used right), you better hope Nvidia makes the PS4s GPU.

Dont know what you mean by not needing to upgrade, even Bad Company can use the juice.

Beacuse the ps3 version has screen tearing and is inferior to both.

kaixxi5625d ago

ok. whatever makes you happy. kind sad to think that you'll be that serious for just a fricken game. but hey i already have this game(ps3),scren tearing yes. but inferior? come on? what are you smoking.

ok 360 fanboy. reason won't come to you anyway.

enjoy your muliplat console while i enjoy a pletora of exclusive games.

--peace

psn: kaixxi

plenty a tool5625d ago

i have a pswii60 combo. my wii doesnt get touched, my ps3 is for sony exclusives and blu rays, and my 360 for multi-plats and xbox exclusives..

and do you know what? out of this "plethora" of exclusives you talk about, i have only bought 1 game gow3 for the ps3 this year. and i will only buy gt5. whereas i have and will buy another 5 or 6 games on the 360 before 2011.

i know its hard for you sony leg-humpers to reakise, but away from n4g, sonys exclusives are not the be all and end all of gaming.

sorry kid.

demonddel5625d ago (Edited 5625d ago )

these dudes always talking bout PS3 exclusives like its the best thing since slice bread 3 exclusives in 4yrs that was descent but not ground breaking unless you wanna talk about graphics and before these clowns start saying he is a xbots or MS fanboy i own all system

dead_eye5625d ago

3 in the last 4 years. Been more than that this year along hasn't there?

Taker_1295625d ago

I will MAG, WKC, Heavy Rain, MLB The Show, and GOW 3.

demonddel5625d ago

MAG,WKC,HEAVY RAIN,and MLB the SHOW niche games only die hards will buy not saying those game aren't any good but you can't keep talking like PS3 is the only system with exclusives it all depends on what you like i might like Halo,Gears,and Forza or Mario,Zelda,or Metroid or Crysis,WOW,Diablo,or Starcraft better than those games but you gonna tell everybody as if Sony makes the best games and everybody else is garbage,I play all games i suggest you do the same

What Happened To The Dead Rising Series?

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...

Darksonic222031d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl2030d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

2030d ago
MadLad2031d ago

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic222031d ago

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.

ColdSin2030d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

darthv722030d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad2030d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod882030d ago

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.

DeadManMMX2030d ago

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.

Gamerking822030d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18892030d ago

haha yes it may....good one.

The paddle bat and string ball from Fallout should be considered too.

Chaos_Order2094d ago

I would've included Tira's ring blade from Soul Calibur.
