GameRevolution:
The mall-zombie, snarky social-commentary conceit for Capcom's original Dead Rising... well, we had seen it before, hadn't we? Like, literally seen it, on movie screens (twice, in fact-once in George Romero's original Dawn of the Dead, and once in the remake). The blatant 'inspiration' provided by the films didn't make the game any less entertaining, of course-in fact, I would argue that the blaring homage only made the game's entertainment factor that much higher-but you can really only get away with something like that once. Everybody knew there would be a Dead Rising 2, but the question was: "Where do we go from here?"
