Dead Rising 1 really pissed me off in some points that made me hate the game, but this one I'm definitely digging!

imvix4986d ago

39 usd on steam for superior version. If the game is any good ill wait for it when steam has a discount down to 10 usd.

newhumanbreed4986d ago

How exactly does that add to his comment?

KratosGirI4986d ago

He thought it was a platform comparison, not sequel comparison.

It doesn't but most people always reply to the first message so their awesome comments can be seen by everyone.

ONTOPIC: DR1 was great but god darn it there were times when I wanted to throw my buddies 360 across the room. DR2 having co-op is enough to get me to purchase it and hopefully I'll be picking it up tomorrow or maybe even at midnight tonight.

"Lag, lag and more lag
Seriously, what’s the deal here Capcom? Low framerates on almost every place that has a lot of zombies? Not cool."
Huh. I don't remember having that problem in the first game. Well that's unfortunate.

Anyway, sounds like they've made some great improvements.

kevnb4985d ago

the quality control is terrible this gen, good thing they made a pc version!

likedamaster4985d ago

As if PC versions are automatically better. Remember GTAIV? Friggin pc elitists...

raztad4985d ago

I have to agree with kenvb. This shouldnt happen. I dont think this game ever goes above 30fps, so we might be talking about sub 20 lows.

At least having a PC version avialable you know, it is quite likely, that with the right hardware you can get a decent framerate.

kwicksandz4985d ago

GTA4 PC is still by far the superior version of the game system requirements or not

chazjamie4986d ago

wow what a comparison. i had no ideas sequels added more, here, i was thinking it removed features/s

i really want to try this game out, because every time i read a review (of dr2), i get this feeling of a mystery. A mysterious joy that i am missing out on. Its pretty irritating, because i have an idea this is a game that you love and hate equally. the only game i can think of that i adored but loathed simultaneously was crash bandicoot 2.

BISHOP-BRASIL4985d ago

Been there already and every time I thought it could be a cool game I was missing turned out to be crap I should had avoided anyway...

That said, I'm renting DR2 to see what the fuss is all about, if the coop is any good, I can end up buying it.

MGRogue20174986d ago

Hopefully.. we'll get some video footage showing the improvements.. :)

newhumanbreed4986d ago

Man, I can't wait for Tuesday to get my hands on this game.

maverick11914985d ago

i ordered it in january and got posted last wednesday and ive still not got it i hope it comes today i only bought it for the online co-op

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...

Darksonic221386d ago

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

InklingGirl1386d ago

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

MadLad1386d ago

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

Darksonic221386d 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.

ColdSin1386d ago

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

darthv721386d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1386d ago

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

RamRod881386d 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.

DeadManMMX1386d 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.

Gamerking821386d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891386d ago

haha yes it may....good one.

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

Chaos_Order1449d ago

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