Dead Rising 2 - Open World Mess of Mayhem
Dead Rising 2 reached out to me simply because I love zombies, but I had no knowledge of the style of the game before I bought it. You start out as Chuck Greene, a motorcross star of some sort in a Reality is Terror show or something, and the Dead Rising world is already zombie infected, but it was controlled until all of a sudden after the show, somebody lets loose all the caged zombies to wreak havoc. You are blamed for the release of the zombies and set out to try and clear your name, but every mission is under a strict time limit. There is a variety of missions, and not all of them have to be completed whatsoever, but you'd be sitting still for a long time because main missions only happen every so often. You'll spend a lot of time in side missions trying to save other survivors and bringing them back to the safe house, but they are usually rather weak and can get in the way or turn against you easily. There are like "boss-maniacs" who tend to take 1000 bullets or 100 hits with a bat before they die, assuming that is you dont die over and over like me because they're so hard to kill a lot of the time. There is multiplayer coop but it is somewhat broken and a player will get kicked out randomly when saving or sometimes moving between missions. There is also a Terror is Realty multiplayer mode, but it is pretty much tacked on arcade type games with not a lot of purpose. This game's campaign does provide a lot of weapon customization and decent variety of weapons to hit some zombies with, but overall the game is kinda of a frustrating time limited free roam and has some bugs, but if you're just there for smashing zombies it'll definitley be fun with a buddy.

A great sequel to a master piece
With such an amazing game like Dead Rising, it would take a lot of work for Capcom to match or even surpass it's greatness. Fortunately, they did not disappoint one bit. Dead Rising 2 focuses around a new protagonist named Chuck Greene, who is trapped in fortune city with his infected daughter. It's up to you to save survivors, kill psychopaths, find zombrex for your daughter, and clear your name after being framed for the outbreak. The game plays just like the original. You fight zombies using anything and everything as a weapon and you level up to unlock new skills, better stats, and new combo cards. The AI for survivors has improved since the last installment and, thanks to a new game engine, there are even more zombies on screen at any one time. The ability to take pictures to level up was sadly removed, but the new combo weapon mechanic makes up for it. You can combined certain item together to make awesome, devastating, and awe inspiring combo weapons to lay waste to all who appose you. There are some problems here and there, but the pros defiantly out-weigh the cons in this remarkable sequel.

this game never gets old. and its very fun
his game never gets old you can kill 1000000000 zombies and you will not stop playing it . the graphics are ok the get the job done some times to get helth you need to eat or drink stuff. he opens it puts it above his face and nothing comes out. gameplay is very fun and exciting. and now just no more guns. but there still are guns. you can customize weapons. the sound is great like a real zombie would sond. deadrising is the new call of duty games. but call of duty sometimes gets boring but i dont hate COD

Successful sequel.
Great sequel! I loved how they threw the combo weapon element in there. Made you think just a little bit more and some of the combos were very innovative. Controls have gotten a tad better from it's prequel and the gameplay is a little bit more challenging. The final boss battle was a PAIN, but the overall game was pretty good.

zombies
this game is fun to play with all the blood and gore and zombies in it but the only thing that is bad about it is the bosses you need to shot them or hit them 100 time to kill them and if they hit you 6 or maybe 2 times you may die but all the other stuff are fun

MY FAVORITE GAME OF ALL TIME
I just picked this game up one day thinking it'd be ok, but it was way better. I have gotten a ton of achievements out of the game, but I still like how the game is full of challenges. It has an amazing story and addictive gameplay. The zombies aren't as hard as Call of Duty, but they're far more numerous, which can kill you just as easily. In the game, you can combine weapons into what are called "Combo Weapons". They are much more stronger, and give far more amounts of PP or "Prestigous Points". You can unlock more combinations/ combo cards by leveling up, finding them, saving survivors, and killing physcopaths. Which reminds me, the phscopaths on this game are way more funner than the original Dead Rising's physcopaths. In the original game, they were stronger and more boring. They're more entertaining in DR2. Also, the survivors have a will for their own survival in this game, and can make you emotional when they die. The game was designed for multiple playthroughs, and I've beat it like 10 times and still haven't found every secret. One of my favorite parts was the vehicles.

Amazing Game
I am a big fan of the Dead Rising games! And Dead Rising 2 made my love for the game series even better. It is great if you want to do what you want and not have to worry about a task that you absolutely have to complete in order to advance in the game. I also love the weapons, and the fact that you can make combo weapons is even better. The only bad thing about the weapons is that you can only have 2 katanas and in order to have them you have to kill the Terror is Reality Girls. I also love how the game never ends because you can just carry over your previous level, clothing, and money, but what sucks is that you can't keep what is in your inventory. Even though its a great game, there is one thing that frustrates me. That part is when the green gases came out and made the zombies stronger. I don't like it because you can't kill the zombies like you used to and not have to worry about even more mutated zombies killing you like you have to worry about when the gases come up out of the vent. But if you just want to play the game and do what you want and don't plan on getting to the green gas part than you don't have to worry. So overall that is just my opinion. I really love the game and I am getting the 3rd one soon. I hope this review helped!

It is a comedy with zombies,good for all players!
It is wonderful with good gameplay, fun bosses, and a wonderful story with intricate details. I think that all players would enjoy this game even if they aren't good or don't like zombie games because you can rescue survivors and other things than just killing zombies. There is even poker which if you save a specific survivor you will get part of a knight costume.

This game is very great and is VERY recommended.
The game is a love-or-hate it game, meaning no one can say they "like" it. And if you're a zombie gamer, you probably should play this game. One reason this game is great is because of it's innovation to combine weapons and create Combo Weapons. Ranging from a spiked bat from a wasp that kills zombies, or flaming boxing gloves from a "chainsaw motorcycle", this game gets the idea: make something attractive and original. The psychopaths also beef up the game's difficulty, as well as the tough time-restrain. The Case Files can really be a pain, but play the game the RIGHT way, and you get something precious: the story of Dead Rising. Overall, this game is very worthwhile and if you like a challenge or a push to the limit, this game is written with your name on it.
