[DEAD RISING] Post 'Til You Drop!

Didn't see a thread already for Dead Rising, let's go with this. Everyone loves a good mindless beat-em-up. Dead Rising fills that quota with a heavy dose of "Nintendo hard."

Now I haven't fully beaten DR1 (Haven't finish Overtime mode) but I loved the game. I loved the fun of it. I loved the flaws. It's hard in that "practice and get used to the stupidity of parts" way like a classic arcade game.

The sequel looks to improve on this, though I'd take more of the crappy same, honestly. The pre-DLC/demo sounds like a lot of fun and a more interesting alternative to most trials.

But first let's talk about how god awful these Dead Rising Sun shorts directed by creator Keiji Inafune. Go download them. I did so on Xbox Live and MAN. He wasn't joking when he said he loved C-grade horror.

    Aw, I need to learn to use the search function. Or "dead rising" isn't good enough? I don't know.

    Close 'er up, please.

    "Dead Rising" will go and find every post with the words "Dead' and "Rising" in 'em. What I usually do is set it to only look at thread titles, only show results as thread instead of posts, and make sure I'm searching a specific forum. Tends to improve results quite a bit.

    Only problem is the three letter limit. Trying to find a thread about Ico is impossible :D

    I don't want to bump the entire other thread to say it, but Dead Rising was the first game that felt "next gen" to me. I'll love it forever.
