Great sequel to the dead rising series.
User Rating: 8.5 | Dead Rising 2 PS3
This game is better than the first however there is still room for improvement.I like this one better than the first for a couple of reasons: one is that there are more save points but i still feel like its not enough save points.But still its got better save points than the first. The second reason is that it has more weapons to kill zombies with. And also weapon combinations to kill them in gruesome and fun ways. Third is the story is a little more interesting this time around. Those are the reasons i like it better than the first. But here are some things i dont like about it. One the load times are pretty long and i hate the fact that they split fortune city areas up by loading screens. I feel as though it should be complete free roam, where you can walk from one casino to another with no loading screens. I also dont like the fact that you cant "completely" free roam. Because you are on a timeline. I wish they would give you an option to put the main story on hold without making you fail the whole game. Forcing you to load where you last were. If they would've put that option in you could finish all the side missions then get involved in the story. It also has some occasional graphic glitches and quirks. But nothing serious. Now that was the review for the story now its time to review the onine mode of play. The online terror is reality mode is over the top and pretty fun. But it does get boring pretty fast. Considering you basically do the same thing over and over. The only reason i keep playing terror is reality is to gain money for the story. The other part of the online features are co-op gameplay. Which it is pretty fun to go around and kill zombies with a partner. But the thing that sucks about co-op is you cant save your game if your joining in someone elses game. Because you are a client in their story mode. Which means if you join someones game that has completed the same amount of missions as you and you and your partner have gotten pretty far in the story and they decide to quit. That means that you will have to start all the way back from where you were before you joined their game. So overall to me the main story is the best part of the game.By the way the co-op mode is i would say just stick to single player mode.
The Good- Brutal, Good Story,Great Sound effects,Lengthy Story, Overall Good Graphics.
The Bad- Not many save points as you would like,Loading times can get frustrating,Not much to online mode,Getting timed in the story can get irraitating
