   AWESOME game!! I just finished the entire thing tonight, and needless to say, this game is amazing!! I love messing around and killingAWESOME game!! I just finished the entire thing tonight, and needless to say, this game is amazing!! I love messing around and killing zombies, while completing the game in the process. My favorite part of this game is definitely the story line. The makers did a great job by twisting the story line every now and then, causing you to say, "Wow, I NEVER thought THAT was gonna happen!" or something similar. Also, I don't know what people are talking about with glitches. My game ran absolutely flawlessly at the highest level graphics, so no complaints there either. So, overall, GREAT game. DR is probably one of my favorite game series. So, without a doubt, this game deserves a 10 … Expand

   Best follow up story to Dead Rising 1 and probably best in the series.

   Fix all the AI problems and improve the gameplay all around. The only negative is the speed was slowed down.
   Best boss fights too. The original timer from 1, but much more time to do things without having to worry so much compared to the first game. It's how it should be.… Expand

   Dead Rising 2 is the best 'Zombie' game released in years. What makes Dead Rising 2 such a fantastic zombie game is the zombies. I'm notDead Rising 2 is the best 'Zombie' game released in years. What makes Dead Rising 2 such a fantastic zombie game is the zombies. I'm not talking about zombies on drugs like the once you find in Left 4 Dead, I'm talking about real braindead zombies that doesn't walk any fasther than your grandmother crosing the street.
   Dead Rising 2 is a time based game. All the missions you will encounter in the game have a limited amount of time to be completed, and even though this may seem stressfull for some it is a well done gameplay mechanism for others. New missions will pop up after you progress further into the game, you have a main 'questline' that you will need to follow if you want to progress the story, but they will give you freetime between these main missions that you can use to explore and do other sidequests.
   These sidequests is usually to rescue survivors, but some are boss fights aswell.
   
   One of the gameplay mechanisms that makes this game stand out is that you can combine different items. As you gain PP(Prestige Points) you will earn new levels that will unlock new combo cards. These cards give you information about different objects that you can combine into new weapons.
   
   I strongly recommend this game if you want a 'free roam' zombie game with great co-op play.… Expand

   Good game. This game is a true testament to sticking to your guns. The gameplay is addictive. It is frustrating. It is hilarious. It isGood game. This game is a true testament to sticking to your guns. The gameplay is addictive. It is frustrating. It is hilarious. It is exhilirating. It is repetitive. It is limitless. It can be whatever you choose to make it. This is the strength of this serious. The problem comes with finding the motivation and drive to complete this game without looking at a wiki. I feel that the time constraints are important to preserve the frantic sense of helplessness and desperation. However I also feel that they force you down a linear pathway with no time to explore or do everything. This means you soon realise there is a cost/benefit analysis that can be done on every decision in this game and for me that means I go google/wiki the best weapon builds and best way to tackle bosses which cheapens the thrill of the experience... you might say I've caused it to myself, but I'd say there is some improvement to be made in the game design before you can say it's worthy of going further into the green territory. Still a worthwhile game to play and well worth the money, but I'd like to see the series progress in terms of engagement with the plot and a bit more freedom when it comes to the time restraints (keep them but make it less restrictive - I know I'm a terrible customer that doesn't know what I want!).… Expand

   It's a sizeable accomplishment to make killing zombies with sledgehammers boring, but Dead Rising 2 accomplishes it quite well. If youIt's a sizeable accomplishment to make killing zombies with sledgehammers boring, but Dead Rising 2 accomplishes it quite well. If you encourage the player to restart their game (and you're not a rogue-like) you should know your game's got some design issues. Chuck in an errand system that MAKES you go to certain places at certain times - discouraging you from exploration - and you have a game that actively goes out of its way to stop you from having fun.… Expand
