Dead Rising: Case West is an Xbox 360 exclusive, stand alone arcade release along the vein of Case Zero, meaning you won’t actually need the full retail copy of Dead Rising 2 to get your fill of photojournalist Frank West. Priced at 800 Microsoft banana dollars, it’s available to download right now on the Marketplace, but is it worth your ever-so-hard earned Christmas dosh?
The Dead Rising series has enjoyed a long and storied history over the years, but which game in the series is best?
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...
Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁
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.
They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.
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.
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.
Some video game weapons are so outlandish they could never realistically be used, and that's why they're on our list of the 10 most impractical weapons in gaming.
I really like your review Draz, it makes me think twice about getting it.
I enjoyed it, but it certainly felt like a let down. I'm not sure how much easier they can make the game for Dead Rising 3 (and if the ending for Case West is any indication, there's a third chapter here), but god damn, it was simple.
I just started it but it seems like fun but I will see.
This sounds like a decnt game, but for some reason i have not got into the Dead rising series or any of the zombie games for that matter except Nazi Zombies.
Looks fun, should buy :)
