When are there ever must-buy games during the summer?
I dunno, I think Dead Rising is worth at least a rent, not 'only' a rent. When I played the demo at first I got kinda bored, especialy after my weapons broke. All I did the first time around really was beat up on the endless zombies in the starting area.
Then, one of my friends told me about a few other things in the demo ("You have to go all around the place man, go inside the shops") and I really got sucked into it. After I discovered that I could walk on top of the zombies and found out where the Katana and the Golf Clubs were, I was in love with it.
You really have to play it to get it.
I'm surprised Capcom didn't attach 'Resident Evil' to this title.
Did Capcom's american branch make it or did Japan do this?
Japan, as far as I know. It's very much different from ResEvil from what I've played. This one isn't actually designed to be 'scary', and the voice acting in Dead Rising is pretty darn good (comparted to ResEvil's scariness--both presentation and voice acting).
Besides, the fanboys would have probably been upset if this was a Resident Evil title, similar to the general reaction when Wind Waker went Cel shaded.
I just saw on the latest episode of the 1UP Show that, in addition to being able to procure myriad unique weapons from every corner of the mall, you can also go into a juice stand and mix different smoothies that act as power-ups. I love that.
Yeah, I saw that too, Kishi. They (Crispin Boyer and Mark MacDonald) seem to enjoy it.
It only got an 8.0 on 1up, dosent seem like the game is amazing by any means....
Well, maybe someday you'll learn to pay attention to reviews beyond the big pretty number at the top.
An 8.0 is a good score, if not a really good score.
I have read through what features and gameplay elements that will be put in the game, I look at the big pretty number at the top to see if all the gameplay features will be fun and worth my time...
I thought you were being sarcastic.
1up takes great care in their 1-10 point review scores, where an 8 actually is a fun game. Not like other companies and their 7-10 range, where 7 is a bad score.
The smoothie thing is pretty crazy, I tried it in the demo last night. Spit O' Death!
Dead Rising will be uncensored in the PAL release, the US release was chopped down ( for reasons I dont know ). This is pretty good news I guess.

I think you may have misread a little.
"Capcom has said that Dead Rising will make it to Europe next month intact, with no cuts made to the version that came out in the USA yesterday."
That means it's the same version the US folks get.
I'm eagerly awaiting this game to get to my little country. The store here said they won't get it until Saturday... so I ordered it from Amazon (along with the Halo graphic novel.) Hopefully I'll get it real soon.
Where is the Katana in the demo you speak of because yay I bought the HDD!
Active after a year? ZOMG.
But yeah when i DID post a year ago I was an ass to everyone. So sorry about that. You can totally tell I used to think i was "gangsta" just by my name. Boy have I changed.
This game looks amazing... that is all :mog:
