Initally no, i got frustrated as hell with it mainly because of the save system. But then i came back to it and had a blast. It is an awesome game if you accept the save system for how it is and you play the game around it!
I thought it was preety good, but I play on a SDTV and after a while I got so frustrated trying to read that small ass text I quit playing. So if all you have is a SDTV dont even bother.
wasnt a fan of being timed kinda felt hurried to do everything which is weird because i had more then enough time to do it in i just thought that feeling of having to hurry through it ruined it for me.
The save system really kills the game. It is fun to mess around with every now and again but to actually take the time to play the story is just too frustrating.
I'm actually playing DR right now (I'm at around 5:00 on the second day) and it is a great game. The AI for the survivors is a little bad, but it won't ruin the game for you. The only reason people are saying it's bad is because they weren't very good at it. The save system is to make the gamer harder than your average console game
it was a early game in the 360 life cycle, so u cant expect gears grapics or great IA but if you have a hdtv or buy the pc lcd 360 hook up its great fun and the save is part of the game embrace it dont hate!
because im thinking about renting or rebuying itjvmva
only get it if u have a hd tv.
i liked the game except when oto wanted to talk to u there was a small text that can't be read unles u have a hd tv. but other than that its a good game. i borrowed it from a friend, i turned it off once i noticed that i couldn't read what the guy was saying.
i loved dr all the way from the different paths to the mindless zombie killing experiance this game is very revolutionary and the save system was put in place to make the game a little challenging (god forbid). also if you didnt like something say why you didnt like it this guy is deciding whether or not to spend some hard on cash on this game and he asked an opinion so please try to help each other out a little better than i loved it or hated it (this has been a public service announcment)
Dead Rising = best game ever. The reason why I bought the Xbox360 in the first place.
Notice how the people who loved it accepted the save system as part of the game's strategy. And those who hated it only played for 10 minutes and complained about the save system. No one seems to complain about the Assassin's Creed save system, which NEVER let you manually save the game or return to a previous save point. Yet, people complain about the BioShock save system becuase it saved too often. Heads evil, tails evil.
I loved it. I didn't get very far the first 5 or 6 tries because it is extremely difficult when you first start out, but the learning curve starts out slow but then sharpens very quickly. This game is an absolute blast to play. Very challenging, very rewarding. Check it out if you like action/adventure type games.
at first i didnt like it because it is very overwhelming to know what to do and what weapons to do but after i decided to restart it and only do the storyline and some scoops i really liked it finished it and overtime mode. now i want to play it again to do all scoop missions. 1 thing i wished they did though was after u finished it they gave u free roam mode where u can do what ever u want an have no time limit and ur health is full unless u get attacked not like infinity mode were u lose health slowly. but awesome game get it
I really enjoyed Dead rising, mainly just messing about in the mall rather than following the missions on my first playthrough. Your character gets better and better with each playthrough so the more time you put in, the better it becomes.
The save system will annoy people who like to save their games frequently, or only like to play in really small amounts. You can't just turn off and quit instantly.
Although there are a handful of flaws that might break the game for many people. Like the save system, the challenging psychopaths (bosses), and maybe Frank's ugly mug.
I have to say that the save system didn't really bother me that much. For 1. I didn't really find it that inconvenient to save considering you can save in either of the two bathrooms with the shortcut thru the vents, which I used almost all the time, so I could always just save as I made my way thru the bathrooms/vents. And 2. I have a hard drive and a memory card for the 360, you can save one Dead Rising game file on each of them. So I would always be sure to save back and forth on each, that way if I screwed up by saving on one and not leaving myself enough time, I could always go back to the other save on the other device.
