Fun all around

User Rating: 8.8 | Dead Rising X360
Dead rising is a great survival game for everone old enough to play it. the graphics are pretty good, not to mention the hundreds of zombies that can be on your screen at one time. One of my only complaints, and this goes with gameplay, is that the text in Dead rising is hard to read unless you have a large HDTV. That is O.K. though becasue usually the missions, tips and controls are pretty easy to figure out, yet have enough depth to be interesting through the game. that doesn't mean that the game is easy though. Yea, killing zombies by yourself is easy, but escorting someone else through an entire mall full of zombies while keeping your defensless escort alive is no easy task. The boss battles are no pushover too. When these show up, you better be ready with some powerful weapons or you are screwed. Another complaint I have is that there is only one save slot in the game, so one profile can have only one game save slot- kind of annoying, but not too bad.
the storyline is great, and kind of a spoof on dawn of the Dead. Some of the characters in the game act a little wierd, but nothing to ruin the game. as for replay value, I beleive that it is very high. why? whenever you feel like it, just get on dead rising and vwala, you can kill zombies in copious ways , and most of the time I think it is funny (I know, I'm morbid). All in all, if you are looking for a challenging, fun survival game, this is the game for you. (plus you can try it with the demo first to see if you like it).
