Dead Rising 2!... review? maybe?
15 years ago
Just read and you'll know what i mean.
Hey there.
I haven't been on much or at least enough to do anything worth while. School and work have been back to back pretty consistently the last few weeks. Sadness. On the up side, I got dead rising 2! ^_^
Now some will think, "Just a mindless zombie killing game." Yes and no. Yes mindless zombie killing will occur.. it will occur a lot, but it has an interesting story and is pretty hard if you don't know what the heck you are doing. Making weapons is fun. At first it is hard to find the things you need, but once you do *pulls out light saber* You can chop them up goods.
I beat the game last night. Played in my free time the last two days and it wore me out.
Gameplay:
Much better i feel than the first one. Beside having the slowest person in the world being your main character for the game, it feels like a very fast game. Beginners will probably feel like they don't know what they are doing trying to save everyone and trying to complete the missions at the same time, but if you can get past the feeling of almost being an utter failure, you will be ok. :P
Weapons are everywhere and abundant. You will probably stick with a few of your favorites, but if you are stuck in a situation where you don't have any of your good weapons, you can find something manageable pretty close by.
The leveling system is helpful too. It makes you crave PP points so while you could just be killing zombies, you might start doing it in different ways to get more PP. Leveling makes you stronger, faster and brings to light Weapon combos you hadn't thought of (Go freedom bear, go!).
Visuals:
This game is not hard on the eyes. If staring at a screen hurts your eyes than you shouldn't be playing video games in the first place. There is a remarkable amount of detail on every zombie, survivor and object that you can pretty easily tell everything apart. There is blood. They didn't go wrong with it and because there is so much blood, you can be thankful that you won't be upset every time something take a hit.
Story:
Hurray! You're not a reporter anymore. Boooo, there is a reporter there anyways. Without spoiling things, the story is good. You are accused to starting the outbreak and you have to play the game to find out who framed you, all the while giving your daughter drugs to keep her from turning. Keeps you on your toes and unless you like to ruin the story, will keep you guessing for most of it.
Fighting:
As fluid as you can expect. You wish he was faster and that he would stop reading your button mashes after you already wanted him to run away, but you slowly learn to live with his disabilities. Most anything can kill a zombie quickly so there is not real problem for them. Just the psychos. You need to be fast and strong to kill them before they kill you. On the upside they all have helpful trends that you can exploit to help beat their sorry butts into submission.
Overall:
Well, I loved it. Everything of this game was either moderate to outstanding. I wish Chuck was faster... dear God i wish he was faster, but you can't have everything. Everything feels to be at the pace you choose so it can either be a very laid back game or a time crunching nightmare that is making you regret going to kill that one zombie as you passed by it. You should play this game. Not around children. They need to not start thinking everything is going to be a zombie yet. Keep them pure. :P
Have a nice day. :D
