Dead Rising 2: Video Review

[CharnelLord666]

Game is kind of 'meh' for me so far. I was hoping for a more run around and do what you want game but I found myself just constantly scrambling to get missions finished and looking for zombex. It also annoys me that your weapons break so damn fast. I'll play a little longer but im not too impressed so far.

[thethodel]

Was that zombie eating a todler :D

[thezombinator101]

I have this game on my 360... Friggin' awesome, I love it!!!

[Lolzi213]

Long load time? It takes 5 seconds for me to load mine...

[keyblademaster427]

far cry 3 advert is realy getting annoying because it is on every video i watch

[Ariayen184]

ive made up my mind im getting this instead of dead island

[KinggyEgg]

@Ariayen184 Don't... this game is terrible , I have it, it's terrible you are timed to do the missions.. dead island was WAY Better

[CalebCrawford128]

@KinggyEgg How dare a game have a time-limit.

[doomsday800]

this game was fucking retarded

[Matriculon]

I love this game

[LegoGayton]

This game sucks

[dragonsbreath223]

@LegoGayton you suck

[notreallythatawesome]

@LegoGayton no, you suck.

[swagboy229]

[Solokill75]

@swagboy229 well then your getting the best of the best :D

[gamesfan397]

I think this game deserve 9.5!

[MikeMysterFilms]

no off the record review?

[isastn1010]

this game is awesome but I played it on wii and that demoted it a little but it's still cool

[jeneksimpson]

sheet game

[issandarf6]

lol

[BEARARMZ]

If you love horror, blood, gore,zombies, then you'll love this game. Controls are easy and there are a lot of weapons.

[FrostBiteNinja1]

Is this better than Dead Island? Please reply.

[theslapperification]

@FrostBiteNinja1 not really

[crazymegatronjoey]

@FrostBiteNinja1 yes it is better v

[charr441]

yes

[SASAussie]

This review is gr8 m8.

[rokuterra]

Anyone notice at 2:00 the Playboy poster?

[ItsThatGuy1989]

Pass. Can't stand the walking animation of your character and the controls. They suck.

[downwitursyztem]

does this have split screen??!?

[madness17111]

So I'm considering this game here...I'm still wondering weather it's worth it

[dude93891]

I didn't like dead rising 1 but I loved dead rising 2

[deadhippie61]

why does this remind me of monster hunter but with zombies

[CalebCrawford128]

@Jzigzags

1. It's called a challenge.

2. And...?

3. If you hit anything human-sized with a bat, it's probably going to die.

4. How?

5. I see nothing wrong with the story.

[Jzigzags]

@CalebCrawford128 well I guess you are putting up a nice arguement but I really do not want to be involved in a stupid internet arguement because I just had a good day you know, so let's just agree that we can see the game differently. (also sorry if I've annoyed you or made you mad It's just this REALLY is not my kind of game) :)

[CalebCrawford128]

@Jzigzags Allright then. I guess we all have our own tastes.

[Jzigzags]

As you can see LOST has a better storyline

6.dead rising 2 has made like eight games so far... SERIOUSLY! MAKE DEAD RISING 3 ALREADY!

this game is an embaressment!

[AmadeusExcello]

@Jzigzags What brand of stupid are you on?

[Jzigzags]

@AmadeusExcello I don't know which one am I and how can you tell?

[TheMhn5]

please guys,i suck so badly in dead rising 2. i need a co-op partner.

anyone willing to play the campaign once again to help a noob. feel free to add mhn5 on PS3.

im on case 3-2 i think,and i have the band members angel lust following me cause i don't want to turn em in,plus i gave them guns so when i rob the casino i have a fighting chance.

PSN:mhn5.

[Lisloe]

I got bored with this game very quickly

[cheesyflames]

I thought this game was kinda boring. :(

[bigboijustin]

How the fudge do you get to level 40? I only got to 20 something before the military got there :(

[AGStyle1997]

@bigboijustin you have to replay the game unless u spend all your time killing zom,bies

[ekalb59bl]

A lot of people hate on IGN but they are generally right. I trust their reviews..

[TheFilipFonky]

@ekalb59bl IGN sin't always the same guy. Sometimes is someone with good points and good complaints about the game, but some other times it's just someone who gets paid for saying what he doesn't even know.

[snake9718]

@TheFilipFonky they dont bullshit,its there opinion.....

[TheFilipFonky]

@snake9718 No. It's not "their" opinion. IGN is famous, so game-publishers like Activision PAY them to do good reviews for their games.

[snake9718]

@TheFilipFonky OK

[TheOlympianX]

IGN is beast, dont hate. BEYOND and SCOOP

[TheXzebx]

IGN rocks :)

[ConradoLusa]

nice review

[MajorChorizo]

These People are IGNorent kids who are addicted to Call Of Duty 

[epicmw2guy]

8.0 OH IGN IM COMING TO KILL YOU

[EvilIntentions01]

I didn't really like this game, I loved the first one but there's just something about this game that makes it really boring to play for me.

[cosmicpandabrownies]

@xbix22 no but I like dead rising 2 better it's more fun than dr1 and you don't have to get zombrex you can just let whatshername die

[thezodiac8973]

3:31 so cute

[WXIIIR]

This is a shit review because of things like "the framerate is far from silky smooth", there is a solution for this, UPGRADE YOUR PC (if you are playing on pc otherwise you are screwed so i hope you are happy with your console). My pc was not the best when i bought it on 2008 and runs this game completely maxed out. Also even maxed out the graphics are complete shit and looks like a 2004 or prior game 8.0 is completely overrated (for anyone but not including fans obviously)

[maxbarrass1]

@WXIIIR Here is my advice, stop being a bitch about it and just have fun playing it on whatever the hell you wan't.

[WXIIIR]

@maxbarrass1 And here is my advice, if you don't like other peoples well founded opinions and reviews, stick you complaints up your ass. Because when i think something is underrated or overrated and i have logical reasons for it, for sure i will complain. If you want to go where the hype leads you without questioning anything then as a human you have no good reasons to keep breathing as one of the few things that separates us from other animals is the brain power.

[maxbarrass1]

@WXIIIR Actualy, I was not insulting you. It was me, saying that people are bitching in video games about a frame rate that does not rely take away from the experience. I understand that it may sound like it, but for something as unimportant as frame rate, it is stupid. I have played Dead Rising 2 on my PS3 and the frame rate has never been a problem. I have also completed this game about ten times. The only problem is fighting Randy and the bad collision detection with the chain saw.

[maxbarrass1]

@WXIIIR And even that has been fixed at some point. The game was never going to impress the audience with graphics any way, so there is not need to complain about that. I find the only people that hate this game are those who are bad at time management or keeping health up using health items. There are other problems with servivers, however, as you get use to playing the game, stuff like that become some form of natural thing.

[WXIIIR]

@maxbarrass1 Sorry, looked like an insulting answer. I'm not one of those you talk about, i stopped playing because i was bored, i would never lose (someone talked about harder gas zombies, so maybe i will try it again) and because of the graphics, if games don't graphically evolve we are going to be playing the same graphics for a decade, which sucks. On consoles framerate doesn't tend to be a problem because to hold the framerate, the graphics quality is further reduced...

[WXIIIR]

@maxbarrass1 ...but i doubt the quality is any different on console (besides framerate drop, but like you said and i agree, not noticeable, doesn't affect the experience), the game is lightweight (because of crappy graphics unfortunately). Gameplay is good but with those graphics on 2010 for me it's not an 8.0 game, giving an 8.0 to that game is like shitting all over the work of people on many other games. (p.s. if it was 2004 and a bit harder i would give it a 9 or 9.5 hands down)

[maxbarrass1]

@WXIIIR Well, I guess that I just don't care about graphics. But it may bug people and that is true. At least they did not pore months of time in to an online that you have to play to enjoy the game. Online games are just annoying and spreading more than a zombie virus. There are harder zombies (Gass zombies) which come in at the end, when the military arrive.

[xbix22]

does dead rising 1 have any put downs like having to get zombrex everyday?

[xInsanePanda]

This game is awesome but I cant help but feel if it was made by a better company the loading screen issues the repetitive gameplay and clunky combat would have been fixed.

[z14589]

This was a good review



[IvyNirvana]

Wow the only IGN video review that I haven't seen the top 2 comments talk shit about IGN.

[pr0skillzninjasega]

THIS GAME IS A BORING CHORE , THERE'S TIME LIMITS THE STORYLINE SUCKS, THE GAME ISNT FUCKING HARD ITS EASY AS HELL, THE NPC'S ARE FUCKEN STUPID 1/10

[tauruskylereyes]

@pr0skillzninjasega i agree bro this game is retarded as hell!

[MODERNGAMES2]

@pr0skillzninjasega I suggest you to go play Kane and Lynch 2

Then you will understand what a bad game is

[maxbarrass1]

@pr0skillzninjasega And you sir, are a moron. The story is easy once you get use to it (Character up to level 40 or so) and the NPC's are not stupid. The time limits are a main part of the game, to make it more of a survival and it is not boring. If you find a game boring because it is hard, then go back to playing Cod.

[maxbarrass1]

@pr0skillzninjasega Wow, your not just a moron, your ignorant to. I just said that it gets easier as you play. I might have got the cod thing wrong, but did I ever say that because I like this game, everyone else has to. I said it was not boring, to me. I use the term moron as a easy way of getting people's attention, because people don't rely read comments if you don't.

[pr0skillzninjasega]

@maxbarrass1 blah blah blah 

[TheTime67]

@pr0skillzninjasega Dude the other guy won the argument your comebacks are quite poor and rather funny why don't you come up with a good argument then come back instead of saying "blah blah blah" which only makes you sound like an immature fucktard.

[pr0skillzninjasega]

@TheTime67 arguing over the internet isnt worth it its a waste of time

[TheTime67]

@pr0skillzninjasega Then why did you join in?

[pr0skillzninjasega]

@TheTime67 im an idiot sometimes

[Visser0x]

THIS A FREE ROAMING ZOMBIE SURVIVAL GAME

[rmallat12]

[TheNatManRS]

@rmallat12 Kid dies, game over.

[reversingmemories]

@TheNatManRS No, you can continue playing, but you get a bad ending.

[CookiiDoa]

@rmallat12 The ending happens. there are multiple

[glitchitable]

[TheHegehogSonic]

@glitchitable Actually(sorry,bad spelling.), Saints Row 2 has a zombie mode called "Zombie Uprising".You can activate it at the TVs in your crib.

[smothdude]

@TheHegehogSonic why did you say sorry bad spelling? You spelled everything correct lol.

[TheHegehogSonic]

@smothdude I spell bad sometimes and i don't know if i spelled it right or not.

[DaStresseddesserts]

How do you upgrade or find these awesome weapons like the spiked bats.

[thedragonhunter22]

1:24 damn man this aint as fun as border patrol

[StickyMrfingaz]

This looks like shite :( don't buy it guys,this game is a disgrace to next gen gaming,trust me.

[GTA4fanatic118]

@StickyMrfingaz stfu

[StickyMrfingaz]

@GTA4fanatic118 frank west wears dirty pants :)

[xboxed720]

@StickyMrfingaz stfu

[StickyMrfingaz]

@xboxed720 why do people buy this game,id rather do your home work

[xboxed720]

@StickyMrfingaz and i rather have the excuse of telling my teacher "My dog ate my homework" atleast she wont have to see the horrible work u did.

[StickyMrfingaz]

@xboxed720 capcom really should have done the world a favor and burned this monstrosity,your right it just makes people look like they will buy anything :) it doesn't really take any skill to beat this game,the story is shite and the voice acting is shite.the graphics lolz.don't let ya self be brain washed I care about what its doing to you ?

[xboxed720]

@StickyMrfingaz the story is good, this game does takes skill, the voice actings good, the graphics arent great i agree, but no fuck your opinion

[bugnutz43847683]

I found this game to be almost unplayable.

[miquelenrhun]

@bugnutz43847683 why!!!! its awsome

[Dianarocks333]

it will be fun to rape a zombie girl in this game...... hmmm..

[CollectionOfDeath]

[rockstar22240]

my friends dont play this game on xbox live im buying tomm anyone want to play with me GT:WANTEDTACO

[xxxm0ris]

i give this game a 1....

[Exoble]

@xxxm0ris me too i didnt enjoy it at all

[p0ffertjespan]

if u played out the game. and u restart it do u still have ur character in the same lvl and the same equipment?

[HombreHonest]

@p0ffertjespan You can keep your level, but I don't know about equipment.

[TheNicholaiM]

@p0ffertjespan do you mean after you beat it, then you keep your level but not your equipment, i beaten it 4 times so i lost all my combo weapons 3 times

[MrEmokido]

i reckon this would be one of the greatest games if the resolution was brought up to crysis 2 or killzone 3 standard.

[TheDeltaXQ]

WTF 360p? What the fuck is this shit!

[CaptainCrunch7755]

Get Off the Record. Its a thousand times better.

[russeljohnson2]

In my opinon this game gets a 6.5, honestly it was kinda boring. I loved the bosses and the music that went along with it and the fact you could make your weapons but I just found hard to come back to. The limit gets a little to get used to but I think its just because zombies are getting stale just like the military shooter genre.

[TheAK47MaStA]

this game is so boring theres nothing to do but kill zombies and that isnt fun anymore because i do it so much

[FrankTheTankOS]

Framerate issues? HA. Not on PS3.

[ObamaGoesPostal]

better than off the record ;)

[SchoolinYou]

Munching of a toddler, people should not be saying things like that and getting away with it, lawls!

[thatrandomguy72]

I loved the 1st one more than this one, 2 was a good game but I just loved the Willamette mall setting. And can someone tell me what was the whole deal with the gripe of the one save system in 1? How many save slots do people need really?

[eltotoX]

360p only? WTF is this, 2005?

[blacktra1n]

[eltotoX]

@ThePikkulammas You're right. 360p is enough, really.

FOR 2005!

[ThePikkulammas]

@eltotoX umm no what kind of hipster are you ?

[rbagagli]

@eltotoX Best comment on the entire Youtube.

[TrasherPop]

is this game worth 30 bucks?

[Th3LegendaryOne]

This game would kick ass if you atleast could kill the pshychopaths without having to +40Lv and have Knight's Armor, I'm Lv15 and stuck on the chicks in ''The Source'' and can't damage them at all because they kill me with 2 strikes

[hypershadicful]
