Why Case 0????
With Dead Rising 2 due out on the 24th September Capcom have decided to release a prequel/Episode its a gap between DR1 and the events of you getting to Fortune city (Las Vegas)it has been several years since the incident in DR1 and you are Chuck who is with his daughter Katy.Chuck and Katy stop off at a gas station in still creek, and without ruining the story lets just say something happens that leaves them there stuck in the gas station. But that's not all Katy has been bitten and needs a shot of Zombrex every 12 hours!
Heads will roll...... in this sequel!
So you go on a search through Still creek looking for some and you are not alone their is an army or zombies waiting to kill you or be killed by you, as in DR2 you can create your own weapons like a paddle and chainsaws! it is as awesome as it sounds, just like a pitch fork with a shotgun attached to it you do have some good weapons at hand to play around with if you look around the town.There is a time limit in this Episode, you have until the military arrives which in game time is like 2 hours. but what you do in that time is up to you as there are 4 endings to see and not all of them good ones, some end the game quite quickly as there are survivors to save (if you want) which is good as it will take more than one play through for anyone to see everything, giving you an idea of whats to come in DR2 the full game and how some things work.
There is no lottery here, only hints at what to do!
OK there are 3 save slots but I'm sure people did want a better save system this time round as that is our only gripe with Dead Rising 2-Case 0, Dead Rising 2-Case 0 is a nice little episode as it has a lot to offer, you could of you want just go around killing zombies or save every survivor, and we will say this for the survivors their better than the ones in DR1 (the A.I is just better) for 400 MS points we could not say that this was not worth it by any means.We don't want to say to much, as we don't want to spoil things for those whole will play it. We did enjoy this nice little taste but we was also reminded of the games faults from the first one, as they save system is not game breaking but we can see a lot of gamers put off by how the game plays or that how if you want to achieve certain things you wont be able to stand around just killing zombies or making weapons. We can also see Katy's Zombrex being a problem for some as on many of our play throughs did we forget or miss out on other situations due to getting back to her to give her the shot!
SUCKERS
But to some Dead Rising was a classic, now we just got to wait till the 24th of September to find out if the sequel is better and can do what capcom wants and be as big as the resident evil series!in the meantime here is a short video of us killing with a.......
