Platform Nation have the facts for Dead Rising 2: Case zero.

Mark Withers opens the article by saying "Despite criticism over the way save games were managed in Dead Rising, many gamers still consider the zombie-fest to be one of the best games available on the Xbox 360. That is why we are so excited about the sequel which is due for release at the end of September.

This time around, Dead Rising 2 is a multiplatform title but those who are planning on picking it up on the Xbox 360 are still in for an exclusive treat. On the 31st August, Dead Rising 2 :Case Zero hits XBLA and means we have a month to learn a bit about the background of the lead character.

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 😁

InklingGirl1370d ago

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

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

Darksonic221370d 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.

ColdSin1370d ago

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

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1370d ago

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

RamRod881370d 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.

DeadManMMX1370d 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.

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

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

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