Could have been great...

User Rating: 7.1 | Dead Rising X360
The basic premise of the game rocks, and I highly respect what the developers tried to do with the various storylines. There is so much to like about this game, but it's sorely let down by it's flaws, namely; the control scheme and the save functions. Firing weapons is very much like playing GTA, only worse. Quite frankly, aiming and firing was an unsatifying and annoying experience. I understand why they tried to keep you on your toes with the timer: a cool idea of supply and demand with the clock to prevent you from getting bored: however, it just wasn't enough time, and not all of us like to play through the whole game a second time. If you are patient, and enjoy exploring and finding easter eggs, you'll probably have a lot of fun in this game. Rent before you buy imo.
