Thief_Lord August 14, 2006 Share Thief_Lord Member August 14, 2006 Well, I like it, though I don't have a 360; I played through most of the game at his house. Anyone else like it??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymo August 15, 2006 Share anonymo Member August 15, 2006 It's fun...but it can be pretty frustrating if you've been playing for an hour or two, just killed some clown only to get engulfed by zombies on your way to the bathroom after emptying both handguns and your uzi...

BAH, never use a gun on a zombie (excpt maybe a shotgun) Get a katana, or (great Weapon) Break an manikin and us the body/head part as a weapon.

YoMamma August 29, 2006 Share YoMamma Member August 29, 2006 I just tried this game last week in my friends dorm room and it sure is fun to mess around with the different weapons. Its kinda like a GTA with zombies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowman September 6, 2006 Share Shadowman Member September 6, 2006 There are two things I love in life. Megaman X and zombies. So when the character can dress head to toe in Megaman Armor then use the arm-canoon to kill the undead, its a good day in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracid September 7, 2006 Share Tracid Member September 7, 2006 I'll wait until its out for PS3, by the time PS3 comes out the exclusive thing with Microsoft should run out and if they decide to port it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymo September 7, 2006 Share anonymo Member September 7, 2006 I'll wait until its out for PS3, by the time PS3 comes out the exclusive thing with Microsoft should run out and if they decide to port it. Neg...no PS3...Capcom's CEO Hiroshi Tobisawa has stated that his development team was completely alienated (like many other development teams) by Sony's PS3 developer kit and that Capcom is extremly happy with the 360 after their first two releases did better than they had ever anticipated (Dead Rising and StreetFighterII). So much so that I have read articles saying that Capcom is leaning toward complete exclusivity with MS on Resident Evil V now that Sony is not only making a feeble launch of the PS3 for christmas (only 500,000 units to the US) but they are also ditching the entire EU until March...MARCH! and only 100,000 units for Japan? Are they nuts? The PS3 better do dishes or something...I don't know...make Sushi...else it's doomed Boy I feel like a fanboy...but I was going to buy the PS3 until all the blue ray problems started and I saw actual gameplay footage and heard all the upset developers going on and on about how much of a pain it was to develope games for the thing...not to mention $700 CDN pricetag for the base system...if I could find one before March...

appalachian_fox September 11, 2006 Share appalachian_fox Member September 11, 2006 I myself am looking into foraying into the console field again. I was really trying to be responsible and only pay for one gaming platform, but there are several games that either (1) never make it to the PC or (2) are such horrible ports from console versions that I feel compelled to blow the wad on a 360. Hopefully they do get full backwards compatibility... And so close to Wii launch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appalachian_fox September 14, 2006 Share appalachian_fox Member September 14, 2006 *bump* Well, I played the Dead Rising demo...what am I missing? I know you don't get the story line, but what else is going on in the game that's not in the demo? Basically, I ran around smashing zombies with anything I could find for a half hour or so. It was entertaining...for about a half hour or so. Then, it was just smash zombies, smash zombies. Do the missions add an extra dimension to the game? Is the story good? My impression was that it's a stripped down GTA (no cars, simplistic missions, etc.). Oh, and tell me more about the camera. I'm intrigued: It's a beautiful game, and I want to really like it, but I'm afraid it will get old quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracid September 14, 2006 Share Tracid Member September 14, 2006 The hostages err I mean other trapped survivors in the game have the AI almost like hostages in CSS, you do the math how they would act hehe. Run into the zombies to get slaughtered, not following you, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymo September 15, 2006 Share anonymo Member September 15, 2006 It's basically a survival horror. The demo doesn't really give you a taste of what the game is actually like. In the full game you have 72 hours to uncover the mystery of the zombies while trying to save survivors trapped in the mall and dealing with psychopaths who are going on rampages throughout the mall. Comparing it to GTA is unusual as it is nothing like it at all...I'm unsure of where you came up with that...maybe because it's in thrid person? Anyways, it's a lot like Resident Evil 4 (as it's made by Capcom) in terms of gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appalachian_fox September 15, 2006 Share appalachian_fox Member September 15, 2006 Never played RE4, but I did want to try it. I'm sorry it's unusual, but honestly, it felt like a stripped-down GTA style game for me. Perhaps I can say I thought the controls were a tad more fluid and the zombies looked cool, if that will make peace. Since I had heard how awesome it was, I figured I must have missed the greater scope of things by only playing the demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymo September 15, 2006 Share anonymo Member September 15, 2006 Sorry I've been defending too many games (well specifically Dead Rising and Saints Row) from people who think they are just GTA rip offs so I'm a little on edge about the subject... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appalachian_fox September 15, 2006 Share appalachian_fox Member September 15, 2006 Fair enough. I didn't mean to malign it as a ripoff, really, so much as say the game has the same control feel and 3rd-person slaughterfest appeal. I don't think that's a bad thing, at least not "ZOMG another GTA teh suck!!!". Also, it came off as very comedic and chintzy in the demo, not something I normally associate with replay value. My main concern was that the demo seemed really, well...simplistic. I enjoy smashing evildoers, or at least ne'er-do-wells, such as zombies, but that can only yield so much entertainment. I wanted to make sure there was more to it...you know, like people you can fight with / against. That's a big deal. I happen to like the horror survival genre, as well, and have liked every Resident Evil I have played. I never could tolerate Silent Hill, but that's a different topic altogether. I guess I'd ask, is it really more survival horror or frolicking through zombie bodies? The latter is entertaining in spurts, but the former gives me reason to actually drop my hard-earned Septims. Oh, and how's the multiplayer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymo September 18, 2006 Share anonymo Member September 18, 2006 There is no multiplayer, just rankings. Basically you're fighting the time limit on cases (missions). You have a safe room which is pretty much where you will get all your cases and where you take rescued survivors. There's a heavy emphasis on survival where the missions seem easy at first, but then they throw in some unexpected obstacles that make things quite challenging in parts. There's also the picture taking which helps you level up and a bunch of acheivements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appalachian_fox September 18, 2006 Share appalachian_fox Member September 18, 2006 (edited) Guess I'm going to have to rent it to get a better picture. Any suggestions / pieces of advice for the game that aren't conveyed in the manual? Edited September 18, 2006 by appalachian_fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
