  • Co-op play is introduced to the Dead Rising universe for the first time as players can invite their friends to partner up with them at any time to take on the zombie massacre- tag-team style! Play with a friend and have even more fun as you lure zombies in using strategic items like a toy helicopter or a firecracker. Once the zombies have gathered, your friend can rain bullets from above or shoot at a strategically-placed gas tank to create a deadly explosion that will take out masses of the enemy. Killing zombies with a friend is always more fun!
  • Allows 4 players to compete in a gladiator type show that pits zombies against a group of players in the ultimate Vs. multiplayer blood bath
  • Players can combine two everyday items using duct tape to create the ultimate zombie killing creations such as the Portamower and Paddlesaw. Unlocking combo cards along the way will give players the advantage as the helpful cards will show you what items are best for combining. The more zombies you destroy using your creative combo’s, the more Prestige Points you can earn which levels up Chuck along the way

description

Dead Rising 2 will deliver more of the signature gameplay that the series is known for plus a number of new features.Players who might need some help or simply want to share the zombie bashing fun with a friend will now be able to play in online 2-player co-op. Simply use the in-game transceiver to call for assistance at any time and once your partner has accepted, they will arrive by your side for double the action.With hundreds of zombies on screen at any one time, the original Dead Rising forced gamers to take everyday objects they found in the Mall and use them as weapons. But now, in Dead Rising 2 with thousands of zombies filling every square inch of Fortune City, Chuck is going to need to be even more resourceful and inventive by creating combination weapons to save the day. Players will be able to take two objects, a roll of tape and with a little inventiveness create an advanced zombie-killing combo weapon - a piece of wood and a lawnmower become Portamower, the handheld mower that cuts zombies down to size in an instant; while a garden rake and car battery combine to create an electrified zombie prod. The more combo weapons a player uses, the more Prestige Points (PPs) they will gain along the way in order to level up Chuck.

My favourite kind of game
This is by far one of my favorite games. I owned a collection of Dead Rising games and I love every single one of them. This one is definitely a must buy!

Great game to buy
The gameplay is fun and unique. The atmosphere is strangely peaceful with good background music in the mall. Love weapon combination. Good story and memorable characters (better than Off the Record version).

5/5
Comments: It is a lot better than Dead Rising 1. Survivors are far more tough and better at taking care themselves. Thus making the game more enjoyable. Graphic is great and the game protagonist, Chuck, looks more detail and bigger than Frank in the prequel. However those playing this game in standard definition (480i) beware, as during the poker game, card numbers are a little hard to read. Theme song is not as good compare to Justified in Dead Rising 1.

A Great Series
I really enjoyed Dead Rising on 360. Yeah I didn't like some aspects of it: weak early on, Otis constantly calling, regenerating convicts, etc...but after I put a ton of time in that game and leveled up, it became really fun.

I expected the same from Dead Rising 2, but this time we get improvements, weapon making, co-op play, etc... It's still as gory as ever, and the locations are fun and look great. There are a larger number of zombies on-screen compared to the prequel, but for some reason, the graphics aren't as sharp as before. The framerate is mostly consistent.

The biggest gripe I had with the original was how followers were useless and a pain to move around. I didn't like how it was almost pointless to try and rescue everyone or have a chain of followers at one time, because it was too hard to keep them alive. In Dead Rising 2, however, it's much more manageable, and the co-op experience helps out a lot. Overall, this game is highly recommended to those that enjoyed Dead Rising. But I don't think it's a game for everyone or even just gore hounds. It's an aquired taste.
