Dead Rising 2 & Case Zero: Wheelchair Zombie Drive-bys in an Elvis Suit.

[Psychotic]

Dead Rising was one of the most fun and innovative titles of this generation. The premise, for those of you who have never heard of it, and I pity immensely, was this: Mall full of thousands upon thousands of zombies. 3 days. Do whatever the smurf you want. Go. And oh, it was glorious.

Now the sequel is coming out. Same thing, only instead of in a mall, it's set in a Vegas style town. Big two differences:

- Co-Op and Multiplayer (smurf yeah)
- Combine objects to get new weapons. For example, what would happen if you taped chainsaws to a canoe paddle?

(SPOILER)
pure, unadulterated glory is what!

Here are a few more if you're curious.

It is out next month for 360, PS3 and PC and I cannot smurfing wait.

Case Zero is a kind of half demo, half DLC dealie, and it is out tomorrow (31st August) on XBLA for 400 points, and I sure as smurf am getting it. It's a seperate episode to DR2 that takes place between the two games, and progress (such as weapons, outfits and up to 5 levels) carries on over to the main game if you buy it.

some DR2 screens. My favourite is the second to last one!

I think this thread is literally going to be just me and Huxley gushing about the sick things we've done to zombies, but I really don't care. Your loss

Dead Rising was good. Sometimes the controls were frustrating. I was always too amused when I put on masks. When the main character spent five minutes yelling at someone while wearing a legoman mask... I giggled.

The second one does sound very good. Chainsaw-canoe paddle, smurf yeah!

#1 Dead Rising fan, right here. Well my friend would have something to say about it, but who gives a flip anyway? :V

I'm buying DR2: Case Zero tomorrow since I ended up getting 45 bucks in birthday money today. Sadly it's exclusive to 360 only (the reason that's sad is because I'm getting the PS3 Zombrex Edition; my 360 has a tough time reading games). It'll be a great late birthday present.

With my leftover points I'm probably gonna get Banjo-Kazooie or something.

Until they clarified that it was only in Japan, the news that Case Zero was delayed broke my heart quite hard.

As it stands, smurf yes Dead Rising. Paul knows what is up I will be in this thread a lot discussing the hilarious things I do to the undead.

DR2 comes out the day before my birthday. this is bragable

Chef Knife special attack (hold down X) is my favourite so far.

The demo for Vanquish was a smaller filesize so I downloaded that first. This game is already bought, though. Will play when I get back home.

I'm so excited for it. I just hope that Australia doesn't pull a dick move and suddenly blacklist it or something. Please oh please oh please let me slay zombies in the most glorious way!

Drill + Bucket = Very Painful Hat For Zombies. Or Drill Bucket, as the game unimaginatively calls it.

You have no idea how long I've been waiting to kill zombies with a spatula while wearing a dress.

Waitress outfit + Sledgehammer = fetchingly bloodstained transvestite

Also, the Boomstick is the greatest weapon in gaming since the Cerebral Bore. And Chuck is a grade A+ badass for surviving it.

One time I strolled by where Bob hangs out and he had shot a ridiculous number of Gs. There was a carpet of them. Badman.

Dear god, the vomit, it won't stop coming. The bowling alley is coated. And then a zombie tackled me into my own vomit, face-first. Why. Whhhhhhyyyyy?

[Madame Adequate]

Can't wait to hear what music appears in the main game. I doubt they'll ever top Gone Guru but this is pretty sweet.

Already got most of the achievements and the best ending. The bike parts are pretty easy to find. The survivors not so much since they're @#$%ing random seems like. One playthrough they'll be there and another they won't.

The "boss" of the game is pretty lulzy (SPOILER)he's a guy named Jed who is a mechanic, and has a pitchfork and takes pot shots at you with a shotgun, but since you're near the safe house for the whole fight you can beat him up a little with a nail bat, which you can make in the safe house itself, and if you get hit run into the safe house( he won't follow you in) and drink orange juice to get back your health.

As I've already beaten the game if anybody wants help I can give it to them, except on the survivor front 'cause I still don't have that achievement, and I'm still missing the locksmith one too.

Survivors are always in the same place, but they don't appear right away, it's staggered based on other objectives.
