Dead Rising, who knew that shopping could be this fun!
User Rating: 9.8 | Dead Rising X360
I had been watching Dead Rising for about a year before it came out, way back when Capcom was designing it. Since then I knew that it would be an awesome game, and I was right! I got a 360 the day before Dead Rising came out in preparation, Dead Rising is one of the main reasons I got the Xbox 360, and I think it was worth the $60 price tag that came with it. First off it has tremendous replay value, I myself have beat the 72-hour mode game four times, and overtime twice. The first time through you can do only the main missions, the second just side missions, the third anything else, or try to go for some of the games wide variety of achievements. There are 50 achievements each worth 20 points, some are challenging, some are not, and some are just plain fun! They keep you coming back to try and complete them all. Unlike PDZ where its achievements are in increments of 10, 100, 1000, making them rather dull, Dead Rising has a range of points, from eating all the food, wearing all the clothes, beating bosses, saving people, bowling for zombies, or killing 53,594 of them. But if it's just non-stop zombie killing madness you want just beat overtime mode to unlock infinite mode, where you go head to head with not only endless zombies but also all the survivors, and bosses, you've encountered. Don't just stand around in the corner, because your health is always declining, and you must search from plaza to plaza, from store to store to find food to feed yourself, but all the humans you defeat drop food to help you on your never-ending quest. By far the best, coolest and most unique feature in Dead Rising is its weaponry, which consists of, well, anything, and I mean anything. Capcom boasts that the game contains 250 plus weapons. They range from guns to your normal zombie killers (bats, knifes, swords) and the truly bizarre like Frisbees, mega man blasters, cash registers, benches, trashcans, and king salmons. So if you’re into random zombie killing with fantastic weapons or great storylines, Dead Rising is the game for you! BUT if you don't take my work for it, try it before you buy it; just download the FREE DEMO from the Xbox 360's marketplace! Hope this helped, and happy zombie hunting!
