Okay, this is not a game I purchased. I was late into getting a next-gen console, and my friend was like, "Hey, I have dead rising if you'd like to borrow it?"
Of course, zombies, plus malls, would equal fun for me. Plus I'd heard good things and some decent reviews. So I gave it a shot.
Yet, despite all of such reviews and whatnot, I have been sadly dissappointed by this game.
Firstly, I think I'll go off at the characters. WTF is a Spanish-esque guy going around with his shirt half open trying to look like a stud in a zombie attack? Does he suffer from Necrophila? Can't he be normal like everyone else? Secondly, yes, I am aware it is a videogame but conputer generated boobies and etc. doesn't work for me either. You want me immersed in a game, make people more realistic! GTA4, although in a fake city and whatnot, some characters you feel for. Some characters you can believe.
Dead Rising Prevents this.
Secondly, game controls and abilites. Yes, okay, finishing moves and shiznit are wicked. Awesome even. But the rest, c'mon! How the hell could a guy swing a club or a 2x4 or a baseball bat EXACTLY the same way all the time? It's just repetition in this game. Loads of it. Sure, gun games the guns shoot the same, but the focus is on where one shoots! Also, when firing why is cover so difficult to use correctly? Why is aiming so effing difficult? In real life I could aim better than this tool.
Alright, I've cooled off a bit. But I don't like this game much at all. The fact that it has 6 different endings is like oh big woop to me. I don't care. I'm annoyed howveet hat this game now has a single achievement locked into my records and I want the game stricken from me eternally.
