Thelogan Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Long rumored, but never confirmed until recently, Dead Rising 2 will be coming to Xbox 360, PC and finally to you PS3 guys. Not a whole lot is known at this point, it takes place in Fortune City, which is a fictional version of Las Vegas. It occurs several years after the first game, with Zombrex - a "cure" for the zombie disease that must be taken every 24 hours - readily available. THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS, MOTHERFUCKER! I dug the first one, looking forward to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That game is merciless man, it's not just you. I grinded my lvl for hours before even attempting to make a serious attempt at actually beating it. Hint: Play through until you have the opportunity to take the picture of the reunited elderly couple on the roof, netting you a ton of experience less than 15 minutes in, then start a new game. Lather, rinse, repeat until you're a zombie slaughtering god of death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishopcruz Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I cannot wait, DR was one of my favorite early games on the 360, it did did survival horror wit a sense of humor, which was pretty damned impressive. Plus, chainsawing Zombies does not get old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Hightower Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 So do they have an achievement list out on this yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 i hope there's a zombie holocaust one where you have to kill an unspecified number (between 4-6 million) zombies. that'll learn you achievement-kids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 i hope they do a bioshock and release part 1 for ps3. its pretty annoying when they make a sequel for all platforms when the first one was exclusive...... ex: saints row. i see this happening with crackdown which i really wanna try out. this barely happens though cause saints row is the only one i can really think of.

The NZA Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Eh, i get the complaints about Dead Rising not porting, but again, for me, the time has passed. 2007 was a particularly slow year for the PS3, we really coulda used Dead Rising back then (Oblivion and a few others were godsends at the time). Some ports come over so late (especially when a sequels nearly out) that i dont know how relevant it is; you could put it up for like $30-40 but would that recoup the costs of porting it? the game industry, salesewise, has ADD with its shelf-life. I mean, Lost Planet finally showed up, and i dont know how many cared. Now, if they did like x-box 1 and packaged the earlier game in with the sequel as a bonus or some shit, that might be cool.

C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Damn, between Dead Rising 2 and Left 4 Dead 2 Panch is going to have his hands full with the inevitable "Zombie Genocider(ist)" achievements! LOLZ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 "When gaming becomes a chore": Pancho, this is your life. seriously, you're 20k deep now, which is impressive but not even halfway there. at what point does this stop being a labor of love? i mean, its more enjoyable than watching 300 297 more times, but fucking hell, at least Little Rocket Man achievement would change scenery for you.

Panch Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I NEED that Zombie Genocidest achievement and will play until I get it! Even if I get sick of the damn game, I will have that shit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NZA Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 not a lot've attention on this game. i don't blame zombie over-saturation as much as Capcom messing with their new IPs and kinda changing up a lot of what people liked about the first one (same with Lost Planet). hope this one doesn't bomb, but i don't have as much attachment as some of ya'll either...we'll see.

Panch Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I agree it's weird, but I actually feel better about this storyline. Dude uses his X-Games motorcycle talents to raise money for his infected daughter. Gets caught in a Zombie Apocalypse while in Vegas! Kills zillions of zombies with weapons that'll make MacGyver proud! Where do I sign up?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panch Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 CASE 0 RELEASES TODAY! You'll be able to grab the Xbox Live Arcade exclusive demo-and-prequel for 400 Microsoft Points. For your money, you'll be able to enjoy zombie-battering combo weapons and 'psycho' boss fights ahead of Dead Rising 2's 24th September release. Various attributes and bonuses collected in Case 0 can also be transferred to your Dead Rising 2 save file too - up to five player levels, Prestige Points, skills, Combo Cards and alternate outfits.

Thelogan Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Wooo! I really wonder why more games don't do this sort of thing. Fable 2 did, and as a result I got to start the game with a few million bucks. It builds excitement and surely can't hurt sales (unless it's something like Two Worlds where they're relying on deception to sell launch day units) INB4 charging you to play a demo. No. It's an XBLA game with achievements and everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panch Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 I think it's a BRILLIANT idea! This should be SOP for all big releases. Lovin' it so far. Fuckin' badass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
