Xboxer360's Greg Remmer writes: Video games have always had a very loving relationship with the undead. Gamers have always lusted after the opportunity to beat their way through hordes of the decaying as much as their targets lust after brains. Perhaps it’s the sense of the survival of the fittest they enjoy or maybe it’s simply because zombies are so satisfying to dissect and decapitate. The Dead Rising series has always focused on the latter and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record certainly doesn’t stray from this trend. So, get ready for some mauling in the mall as this latest instalment promises more zombies, more weapons and more ways of disposing of the decomposing.
Dead Rising 2: Off The Record felt like the zombie survival series' peak, with Frank West's non-canon adventure providing massive thrills.
Jason Stettner of Gamerheadquarters writes; "Dead Rising 2: Off the Record might be my favorite release in the series as it took a solid entry, threw the heroic Frank West in and brought us the legendary Sandbox mode."
Carlos Writes "With Dead Rising 4 now out the door, and our playthrough finalised, we decided to take a look to see how it stacks up with the rest of the series entries. So here we are...ranking the full Dead Rising series from god damn worst, right up to the best zombie bashing offering that we've ever seen."
I played the first, and I bought #4. Other than that, strangely haven't played any of the others. I'll get round to it one day though I guess.
