CheatCC - When Capcom first unveiled Off the Record, some fans were understandably a little confused. Was it an expansion of Dead Rising or a retelling of the game with a new protagonist? It turns out the game is a little of both. It's an expansion in that it will have some features and scenery that will be familiar to Dead Rising 2 fans, but it's essentially its own game, with a story and missions that are unique to this particular entry. Then there's the return of Frank West, the photojournalist protagonist from the original game, who will bring along his handy camera so you can take plenty of pictures while you're on your bloody vacation.
Dead Rising 2: Off The Record felt like the zombie survival series' peak, with Frank West's non-canon adventure providing massive thrills.
Jason Stettner of Gamerheadquarters writes; "Dead Rising 2: Off the Record might be my favorite release in the series as it took a solid entry, threw the heroic Frank West in and brought us the legendary Sandbox mode."
Carlos Writes "With Dead Rising 4 now out the door, and our playthrough finalised, we decided to take a look to see how it stacks up with the rest of the series entries. So here we are...ranking the full Dead Rising series from god damn worst, right up to the best zombie bashing offering that we've ever seen."
I played the first, and I bought #4. Other than that, strangely haven't played any of the others. I'll get round to it one day though I guess.
