There's threads for the add-ons but not the real game, until now.

I do thusly believe Capcom has done a goodjob with this game. They took Dead Rising 1, cloned it, modded it, then fixed all the things that needed to be fixed.

The combo weapon system is fairly "kickin," however with so many items to combine, it is challenging to put the right pieces together.

The bosses are extremely difficult, and not made to be beaten the first playthrough.

I was really dissapointed with the multiplayer system. Especially after playing Halo's stream lined matchmaking.

It's a good game, I just dislike how similar it is to the first. I suppose Capcom has a history of releasing the same game over and over with only slight tweaks and different stories.

(oh noes, my post looks more like a half-#ssed review)

Just got it in the mail earlier, put it in to install, but haven't played it yet, want to get some HW done first. Can't wait to try it out.

I was considering this game until my car broke down today Bah! Gotta fix that first.

Ah well I will just have to be content with what I got for a little bit. Let me know how it turns out.

Boss fights still suck hard. Interesting bosses, terrible actual fights. Everything else is as good or better than 1 so far.

I found a "massager", that you can beat zombies to death with. Let that sink in for a moment.

This game has a weird obsession with playboy. I've found playboy ads everywhere.

Yeah, remember reading about them making a deal with capcom or vice versa a while back.

Also, have you found snowflake yet?

He apparently appears during the first case. The xbox forums have a really decent guide.

Yeah....I found that out after restarting the story....with 2 survivors following me, and low on healing items......

Those survivors can save your ***. I fought Antoine, and Sven was with me with a pistol, he basically killed Antoine on his own while I just ran around in circles.

There are a TON of psychos in this, it's almost like every other mission has a psycho.

Holy crap, Case 6 and on it gets CRAZY.

**** the final case, seriously.

Final case blows donkey dongs. Also co-op is glitchy and only good if both peeps have a mic.

So is the game worth it after playing through it for a little bit?

Yeah, if you loved the first one or liked Case Zero you'll like the full thing just fine. Still need to try out the co-op, the competitive online is actually pretty fun IMO, but I can't see it having a large community after a month or 2.

pretty fun to me, i like rescuing as many people i can at once and arming them and going tyo fight psychos .

Thanks guys, I decided to trade some stuff in that was just sitting around and picked this up. I gotta say this is really fun! The combo weapons are fun to figure out and all the places you can go!

Only problem I have had so far is learning the hard way when it comes to the clock. For example, when I first got the case to meet the reporter in the beginning I waited till the bar got pretty low before going thinking I just gotta meet her then I will get another time bar for the next part. I wanted to explore a bit. Nope, that timer was for the whole mission! I kept running out of time and had to reload to a previous save so I could get through it. That and there are a significant last of save points.

Good game though, not disappointed at all just need to learn the game a bit.

Yea first play through is always the hardest, but after that you play through again you'll know how to bea tall the bosses, you'll be strong know, where all the good weapons and food are and it makes it easier and you'll know when to explore. Really, like some of the missions are spread far apart so you can have time to run around and get survivors and such. Just got to check the case files to see when they start.

I am addicted to this game now lol. It started slow and was a bit frustrating at first but now I have some levels and closing in on completing my first play through. He doesn't feel so weak now. I got just under 10hrs until the military arrives. I think I am level 21 or so right now. Fun times can't stop playing! Looking forward to the second play through where Chuck will be much stronger.

Yea, I'm on my second play through almost till the military arrives and almost level 50. It is very addicting I agree.
