ThisGenGaming says "The bad news just keeps on coming for Dead Rising 4 as we can confirm the main story is the shortest Dead Rising game to date, even without timers."

Length is no measure of value. People can complain if they wish but those are the same individuals that think Golden Corral is a great place to eat. More does not inherently equal better. I will take short and sweet over long and mediocre any day.

MRMagoo1233115d ago

but dr4 seems to not be short and sweet it seems to be short and stinky along with the fact it has dlc on the disc and you have to pay to get the true ending says a lot about its quality

stokedAF3115d ago (Edited 3115d ago )

That's not fact though. At least not from any credible source. That DLC on disc was a phony article by this same publication. Which is it? The game doesn't have multiple endings or the real ending is in paid DLC? This site is obviously trying to bank on made up controversy.

darthv723115d ago (Edited 3115d ago )

"Short and stinky"... yet I have read many reviews who thoroughly enjoy the game. Even DF has said there are many improvements over DR3 that make this a much better game. I for one love the series and the button mashing and crafting of various weapons. It's just plain fun to mow over a horde of zombies in different vehicles. nothing stinky about this game to me and most anyone who enjoys this type of game would not be disappointed regardless of the typical repetitive nature.

uptownsoul3115d ago (Edited 3115d ago )

Seeing the picture on the website confirms 7hrs 34mins...BUT It would be just as important to see how many achievements he got in that 7hr 34min play through...We need to see how much of the total experience he completed in that 7hrs & the percentage of total achievements would answer that

Hahaha. That short and stinky line got me cracking up. Haha

Isn't 7-8 hours the minimum standard? Less than that is considered short but 7 is pretty normal.

Microsoft been robbing us with their games. Gears ultimate is 100$ with game and season pass, and then they release a 20$ dlc that is within "season" and season pass owners still have to pay for it. Then in forza they have another 100$ deal "Forza Horizon 2 Ultimate Edition Includes: Forza Horizon 2, VIP Pass, and Car Pass" and then they release another dlc thats 30$ but 10$ off for ultimate owners. Not sure what Dead Rising 4 has but im starting to see a trend and this year confirmed my buying habits for next year around this time and I will wait.

DeadManMMX3115d ago (Edited 3115d ago )

How do you rob someone who has to choose to pay. You can easily wait for a sale or just abstain if you don't feel it's a value. This kind of talk is just hyperbole and far too wide spread whining that has become to norm in online comment threads. Nobody is putting a gun to anyone's head and forcing them to buy. Nobody is robbing you or ripping you off. In this this day and the age we have to resources to find out about the games we want and make an informed decision to buy or not. You either buy because you think it's worth it or you don't. In the end you vote with your wallet.

darthv723115d ago

the only problem with your rant is that THIS game is not Microsoft's it is Capcom's.

brich2333114d ago

Yeah, but its published by Microsoft Game studios.

Tedakin3115d ago

Gears 4's maps are all totally free. The 100 bucks is if you want to own them for private use. The 20 dollar season pass I assume you mean KI... KI is 60 bucks for the whole game... seems like a fair price right? MS didn't make Dead Rising 4

Sciurus_vulgaris3115d ago

Capcom is so cheap they nickel and dime people even when, their company doesn't fully cover the development of the game in question. Capcom used Sony money to make a content lacking SF V, and it appears they did the same with Dead Rising 4.

zidane13413114d ago (Edited 3114d ago )

Rob us of money, that's why they are pushing so much free content in halo and gears, huh? Smh Sony fanboys. As if Sony didn't put out a crappy vr headset with there 400 dollar system. Grow up.

Dead Rising does have replay value however. Crafting,exploring new areas and certain side missions you might not see in the first playthrough.

Kribwalker3115d ago

There's always a lot of replay value in these games, I completed 78% of DR3 with no DLC in 27 hours

These games were a blast

DeadManMMX3114d ago

All of the games have been about 7 hours long with the timer going. As long as it's fun i'm game to go.

What Happened To The Dead Rising Series?

Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.

Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...

Darksonic221777d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl1777d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

MadLad1777d ago

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic221777d ago

Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.

ColdSin1777d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

darthv721777d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1777d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod881777d ago

They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.

DeadManMMX1777d ago

This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.

Gamerking821777d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891777d ago

haha yes it may....good one.
