Dead Rising 2: The best PR response ever?

It seems that persistent internet rumours pointing to a possible Dead Rising sequel - just like the zombies - won't die. But at least CVG got more than the usual PR response...

[Captain Tuttle]

It's inevitable.

[dachiefsman]

I hope your right, and I hope the make the games pacing better <ie to much running back and forth IMO>.

[Monchichi025]

This was Def. in my top 5 of FUNNEST GAMES ever played! (Love Zombies) It was so a blast!

And this is one of those games that I won't mind going multi-platform cuz I believe everyone should be able to experience it.

[Nevers]

DR1 was amazing... I just want more ketsup to the mouth moments, and sooon please Capcom... And I really really hope they give us a little online goodness. Perhaps co-op and/or mp. Pretty, pretty please with a zombie on top!!!

!NOTE = if you haven't played DR1 puh-leez check it out...

edit> oh... and Capcom make the damn font bigger this time around... I have an HD TV and still have a very hard time reading the script for the game.

[Drakol]

Besides, there's RE 5 to look forward to! Zombie fun ^_^

[Rhezin]

and now this?! MY GOD IS THIS HEAVEN!?

[Reibooi]

That was the best PR response I have ever seen. Oh and Dead Rising 2 is gonna be announced soon it has to be to many people want it for Capcom to ignore it.

[Mozilla89]

Yeah that was.

[QueefyB]

yes it will be exclusive to the pc i cant wait to play it on my powerful pc

[QueefyB]

oops almost forgot http://img172.imageshack.us...

I hope it will be on the PS3 too. I played at my freind's house and it was really fun. Even though he said it gets repetitive I wish I could've played more of it.

[from the beach]

Ah, that made me laugh. Touche, Capcom..

[DARK WITNESS]

DR was a great game and one of the few i could call a real example of nextgen.... you know you never played anything like it before.

so DR2, how about a step up like; the virus is out, now its a whole city !

wall to wall, steet to street.. zombies !

anyway, hope we hear something on it soon.

[AAACE5]

If they are making a part 2, I hope it's better than the first one. Cause the first one just had a few problems that just made you not wanna keep playing it!

[Nevers]

Cuz at first the saving and repeating system seemed really wierd and wonkey; but once I fig'd out how to exploit that quirk, it really enhanced the whole game to a huge degree...

[Wolverick]

How exactly did you exploit the save system... Help me out so i have more incentive to play it again.

[tplarkin7]

You mean that you don't have to eat stuff to keep living?

[Nevers]

Well, you know how when you start the day over, everything resets? Everythin resets except for the xp (pp I think they call it) you gained from your previous play-thru IF you saved... so you just keep reseting to day 1 and building your dude up in HP/ability. Take lots and lots of pictures. I used that old couple you save on the roof. Take a HIGH value photo of them as they embrace and you'll earn lots of PP every time you reset to Day 1. You'll get a pattern down for other high yielding PP moments. You'll earn more HP to survive longer and explore the very very HUGE mall, and you'll gain abilities that really help you cut down zombies.

Initially it will seem very redundant until you're strong enough and know the mall well enough to survive long enough to get to the really cool areas/parts/npc's of the game. But at a certain point you'll stop going back; unless you screw up the ending you're going for as I think there's like 4-5 endings.

Really hope that clears something up for so ya can start enjoying the zombie slaughtering goodness =)

[tplarkin7]

Frank is maxed out. It makes the game easier, but you still have to eat or you will die. It's not a big deal, but you can't be totally free to run around.

[Nevers]

only happens after you've survived the required amount of days and completed a certain storyline...

And you're right *tplarkin7. Point taken on my use of the game term "exploit". It's not technically an "exploit" per se as much as just how the game's spose'd to be played. I'm just trying to make the beginning less frustrating for those turned off by the weird save structure that becomes beneficial when you discover how to use/exploit it to your advantage.

Hope that clarifies my bit...

[bumnut]

but i would like to see a change to the save system and voice acting.

i don't mind reading but it would be a lot better with voice.

can't wait to see what crazy weapons they think of for number 2

co op would be cool too

[kapedkrusader]

I don't comment on speculation and rumors:)

[InMyOpinion]

If they just skip the time limit this time. It kind of destroyed the experience for me, I want to have time to explore the mall.

[sovietsoldier]

the next dead rising should use the same engine as gta4. just think how cool it would look and act like!
