Issues with Dead Rising

[MinionZombie]

if they were more lenient in saving the timeframe wouldve become a moot point, but its different strokes for different folks, some people think left 4 dead is to frantic, i like dead rising fro what it was, it gave an illusion of post apocalyptic freedom when actually your a mouse in a lab, set to a time limit to find the cheese scattered about. it wasnt the freeroaming mmo romero world game everyone wants but theres nothing like it out so its got nothing to compete against. Having been playing a lot of Fallout 3 of late - what we really need, is a GAR zombie FPS-RPG world along the exact same lines as Fallout 3 (minus the nuclear futuristic fallout scenario). Seriously - how much bulbous ass would that kick up and down the block? Fucking LOADS is what. Dead Rising was a big hit, so I'm damn skippy sure a GAR zombie version of Fallout 3 would pwn not only gamer's arses, but the sales charts too. GIMME IT! GIMME IT! GIMME IT!

I'd shit my pants and dump my girlfriend.... : Oh man that made me giggle. sometimes i just go to ther subway tunnels in FO3 with a shotgun to ventilate zombies for a few hours. Yeah, I like blasting the feral ghouls they have in Fallout 3 ... it's still not an army of shambling zombies though ... that's what I want, just like I said before ... man I hope they do a game like that soon, because it'd be hilarious to just set up a camcorder sneakily on Symph's shelf somewhere, and record him seeing the news that such a game was coming out ... and then his aforementioned reaction. It'd be like Beadle's About.

I was so looking forward to this a couple of years ago but when i finally bought it i just could not get into it. I think its because i find the time limit so restrictive and daunting. Ive only ever got about 3 hours in an ended up quitting in frustration. I never know which 'events' to go to and the fact its possible to lose the whole game if you run out of time just makes it seem like more stress than fun. should i try again and stick it out? You should just quit and play left 4 dead and see how you like it. Imo, dead rising is an o.k. game but it got tired qickly for me. I've been playing left 4 dead a few night a wee for almost a year already. I guess it's all a matter of personal taste. You shouldn't have to feel bad about a game having zombies in it and not calling it the greatest thing since sliced bread.

The ultimate zombie game for me would be like Dead Rising Chop Till you Drop but with tweaked everything. - Zombies are faster paced and more agressive (think Land and Diary of the Dead) and at night they run, no poodles, parrots or bees. - The day/night cycle would be restored though there's no story, what your doing is purely riding out a storm and rescuring people. - There would be no mall music, the audio would take cues from Doom 3 and Dead Space - cultists and special forces operate like RE4's Ganados with various weapons like handguns, swords, grenades and flamethrowers. - You can block doors like in RE4 amd stronger zombies can break them down. - During the day well lit plazas are empty there's a few lurkers (zombies that sit or play dead) and sprinters, at night they come out in greater numbers. - motion plus for various ways of dismemberment. - You can arm survivors. The original was alright but really flawed, sometimes I put it in to do it all again then after a hour or two I take it out due to boredom.

Dead Rising quickly fell flat for me, as well and everything I see about the new one irks me a bit. It's not a zombie game to me, so much as a zomedy.
