Excited about the game. Not so much about shaky footage of a camera pointed at a TV.

i will be playing this game if only for the criminally under-utilized American Gladiators-hamster-ball play mechanic

The first one was fun but a little gummy in the control department, hopefully this one will improve on that.

If you're going to be recording something off the TV, make a little stand or a tripod, something, for the love of God, to set your camera on.

I loved the first one.

You know, much, much better teaser would have just been about 20 seconds of some woman sitting on a park bench, somewhere peaceful. Then, right at the end, Frank jumps out and takes a picture of her boobs.


"FAAAAAANTASTIC!!!"


DEAD RISING 2, COMING 2009.

What was the plot of the first one? something about bees carrying a zombie virus because... something something... US cattle industry.

How will they ever improve on that?

Not that I played it for the plot anyhow.

Fuck the first dead rising. They got zombie hordes down, and zombie behavior down pretty good (except group mauling and group grappling), that's about all they did right though.

The story was bullshit. The characters were retarded. The story sucked.

A zombie takes one shot to the head, while a human takes 20 (or more) from a high powered sniper rifle.

And seriously, YOU FIGHT A FUCKING CHAINSAW CLOWN? A dyke mall cop? A TANK?!

Retarded. Everything they did wrong on dead rising 1 (which is a fucking lot) is probably just waiting for us, in number 2.

I _MIGHT_ rent it. If they get rid of their cheesy fucking "You can only hit someone with a lead pipe 12 times before it disappears" bullshit.

THERES A REASON MELEE WEAPONS ARE USEFUL - NO AMMO. Sure, an axe and a sword can get nicked, but it's still a ten pound hunk of metal that can de-brain enlivened corpses.

Bees. Fucking zombie cows and bees. Retarded.
