[@HappySuperFace]

One thing I like about Dead Rising is that it make it absolutely clear that children died during the outbreak. They don't sugarcoat it and make kids magically absent. Whenever people call Dead Rising a silly comedy game I always think back to that mother survivor who was in hysterics because her infant was grabbed and ripped apart and she says "I've never heard her make a sound like that" forcing the player to imagine what a baby being fucking torn open and cannibalized sounds like.

[@supergogetamario]

It's more horrific imagining it then seeing it. We don't see the kids sure, but they make us visualize it.

[@leviticusprime4904]

Honestly I'm kinda happy they didn't show that and Instead used methods like that, because often times in zombie media when you do have kids and they are violently killed on screen it often comes across as beign needlessly edgy or no reason, looking at you crossed.

"America plays god because they eat too much meat" is such a Japanese plot point it makes me laugh every time I hear it.

[@adameldridge27]

I wouldn’t say a Japanese plot point, more so an observational one; United States Department of Agriculture reported in 2020 that “55% of crops grown in the US were genetically modified”. In 2024 the FDA confirmed “95% of animals used for meat consume GMO crops” and even still in 2024 the US uses ‘Bovine somatotropin’ which is a growth hormone given to cows to produce more meat which is as far as I’m aware, the plot for DR1?

Frank is one of the realest fictional characters in history, i could absolutely see him being one of the boys.

[@MrK-tp1gr]

This is gonna be a long comment, but I wanted to mention that for all the psychopaths that we get to see, Sean and Jo stand out for me as the worst ones. Jo kidnapped several innocent women just to force herself on them as well as brutaly kill them and Sean used the outbreak to make his own cult to sacrifice survivors. And while it's shown that Sean was genuinely insane, Jo had no excuse and no remorse for what she did. She just used the situation for her own advantage. And it's also related to the other thing I like about Frank. While he tries to be peaceful with the psychopaths and shows sympathy to the ones that were really tragic, he can show disgust for the most awful ones. This is especially seen after his fight with Kent and Jo, when he throws the former camera in disgust, and doesn't even want to look Jo in the eyes after defeating her. Hell, he can snap one of the Convicts neck in fury in the Wii version and doesn't even acknowledge Sean's death. He will try to make things peaceful, but when someone crosses the line, there is no sympathy for those kinda monsters.

I recently tried getting back into it. It's relentlessly dull and boring and it's way longer than it has any right to be. If it was a 15 hour game it would be so much better but they actually had the audacity to stretch their horrid writing out to an over 30 hour main story. The characters just suck as a cherry on top. Nobody is likable. Deacon constantly ranting about something while exploring gets old after the first 5 times he does it and he does it EVERY TIME YOU DO SOMETHING. A Radio Free Oregon plays? Deacon rants. Picking flowers and mushrooms? Deacon rants. Zombie hunting? Deacon rants. Gets called by anyone just to antagonize Deacon? Deacon rants. Deacon thinks about his wife? Starts ranting immediately after. O'Neil doesn't immediately pick up the radio after Deacon was just talking to him? You guessed it, Deacon rants.

[@Alwyn2112]

I feel like Dead Rising came out at the right time for the mid to late 2000’s zombie mania, if not helped kick it into overdrive. You could argue that it was already starting with the Resident Evil games, and movies like Land of the Dead, Shaun of the Dead, and the 2004 remake of Dawn of the Dead, I won’t dispute that in the slightest. What I mean is there’s just something about the timing of Dead Rising’s release that makes me think it helped fuel it. In fact, aside it and the aforementioned Resident Evil, there was only two other game series that came out during the period’s height that I think of with those games, Left 4 Dead & Call of Duty Zombies mode. These four series are what I instantly think of when I hear “zombies” and “video games” together. One thing I like about the plot is how stupidly plausible it appears, even back then. If you think about some of the major concerns in the 2000’s in the world, if not at least the United States, it somehow creatively combines them, almost like it’s commenting on it as parallels. This could be intentional or just coincidence, but the way they line up is kind of impressive. -You have the plot of the game being caused by a biological terrorist attack. (War on Terror & Anthrax letter scare) -You have an attempted major cover-up by the U.S. involving the military over it (The questionable ethics behind starting the second war in Iraq) -You have the major cause of the incident being related to dealing with hunger by mass producing beef through biological experiments (Global hunger and maybe a shade of Mad Cow Disease and/overpopulation) Heck before The Last of Us used it as a plot point, it had a parasitic organism as the main vector of zombie infection. Again, I wanna stress that this could be coincidence, but it’s kind of surprising how it all blended together while also still keeping some of the original Romero critique of consumerism. I wouldn’t say it’s the brightest plot conceived, but it’s definitely very creative.

Interesting detail about the games plot i picked up on. Dunno if it factored into it directly, but the idea that the zombie outbreak happened because America wanted more beef could've come from how in Japan, Capcoms home nation, the Japanese couldn't compete with America's cattle industry at its scale. The entirety of Colorado alone could out produce the Japanese. In response to this, Japan invested in quality wagyu beef as opposed to America's mass produced quantity.

You want to know more about the Ubersreik crew and their wacky adventures. Shoot that is why you have full blown SFM animations of the crew. Darktide, while an incredibly fun game, lacks this element which hurts it over all. (Granted that was deliberate since you play as penal legionnaires and no one cares about penal legionnaires.) The future Dead Rising games really need to up the ante on the charisma to make it back on top.

I like to imagine Saul is just crashing on loli's couch, and when he pops up he just overhears loli recording and adds his fun fact

The Japanese have a very, very strange fascination with small town America and every day American life.

Saul Goodman explaining the RROD caught me so off guard, I died laughing 😂

[@cb-9938]

Dead Rising had such a special place in my heart. I remember staying up late with friends playing it on the Xbox. We got 7hrs into the 7 day Survivor achievement and the game crashed, I gotta give it another try

[@wlightnin8789]

Hey; you should review Berserk.

[@k3salieri]

I think he'd really like it tbh.

[@JoaoVictor-rg5ix]

Again? For another 24 hour long video?

[@JosephConrad-z9j]

Is gamer sub the core ingredient for Zombrex?

[@spacep0ny958]

DR1 has Jessie DR2 has Rebecca DR3 has Rhonda DR4 has no thick baddie therefore it was doomed from the start

[@LeonTheSaint44]

3 had the stacked cop too

[@thebuddah1253]

Dead rising 1 has a really good horror atmosphere. Something about all of these moving parts gives me chills all the time while playing.

[@victorvatari8333]

You know what great abouts dead rising, its full of diversity that isnt forced or injected. A great example of diversity in media way before the pc culture, and DEI agenda's

[@christianweibrecht6555]

a game truly made your surroundings matter by letting you use almost anything as a weapon

[@wierdwheel4404]

I miss the way companies used to make games

[@oscarnjboy]

Is the bob odinkirk voice AI? Genius

[@Senator-Wary]

Years ago I was trying to go for as many survivors as possible and while waiting for Ross to shut up I mashed the action button but forgot I had a shotgun in my hands and accidentally gave it to him I was PISSED and had to replay roughly an hour

[@oyylumo137]

I felt that

[@jacksavere6988]

Wait. THE Rich Evans? The one who works with those hack frauds? Absolute legend

[@PinchiWeeb]

Get to the gunstore as quick as possible & you can arrive before Cletus does, usually what i used to do.

[@dc4296]

my first contact with this game was the Let's Play made by PhantomSavage, totally found it by accident. Decided to get it and play for myself since it looked awesome, and I was surprised by how much they actually put into this game, still to this day the best game on 360 and one of the best zombie games, period.

[@ravenmcfann8280]

My man mentioned the mannequin torso! Love to see it.

[@theshenpartei]

I can’t wait for you to cover the entire dead rising franchise since it’s a whole saga intiself with tv shows and comics to tie in with the games. Plus the new game aka dead rising deluxe remaster is just whole new game.

[@jonathanathor117]

59:33 wait dead rising 3 the protagonist in that game was effectively immune to the zombies.

[@Stevin20687]

Something I have found funny about Dead Rising 1 and Resident Evil 4 being tied together due to shared engines: With the more recent ports of RE4 (not Remake) on Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (I think there was another PC port along with these) a few years ago, this version was build using MT Framework! The same engine used for Dead Rising and a lot of other games (dear fucking Lord that list is big). Kind of like an odd "You helped me out back in the day, now I'll help you!"

[@DartRipper69er]

Deadrising 4 really made me love Deadrising 3. We didn’t know how bad it could get 😂

[@sarcastic-sulfur1683]

53:09 Yeah, same.

[@tyreviews6774]

Who wouldn't? 😏

[@kylehoffman3866]

Dude the rich Evan comment made me have flashbacks.

[@JVLM07]

Great retrospective TAL, wish you talked a little about Infinite mode a bit lol. Also I'm surprised you didn't mention that you could get guns before Cletus shows up after 2pm on day 1.

[@mrnobody2683]

The WII version holds a place in my heart First time I played it was that way Dead Island can't compete

[@nonten4]

pleasant surprise, I remember the stream you got footage for.

[@DS3Enjoyer]

I really love all the detail you went into. Looking forward to more videos

[@The4thSnake]

I appreciate most of the footage having the small-chainsaw-triple-book tech being used.

[@chochi850]

Love that he brought up the red ring of death, since this game was the first of many to brick my 360. Oh and the "towel fix" such a stupid idea, but i can say it did work since i was desperate enough to try it back when left 4 dead 1 released. That damn red ring couldn't have come at a worst time 😅

[@r3dgh0st38]

I not only played the java version on my first cell phone. But, I also unlocked the MegaMan suit in it too. And unlike the original X-Box:360 version. In the java version, you don't wear a blue suit. You straight up turned in to the 8bit MegaMan sprite. Yes, the buster is the strongest weapon. But it's locked in only being able to fire horizontally left or right. In a game with enemies that could come from 360 degrees of your position. 😅

[@dreamz5745]

Your video reminded me of the time when I first played Dead Rising 1 on and dog shit laptop that almost melted but still it didn't take away the fun out of the experience truly a great game, great video and I'm looking forward to your next upload

[@compedycakemine6960]

Man, growing up with the 360 I remember those problems all too well. I sent back maybe 3 360's because they all bricked on me, and when my warranty expired and I couldn't replace my 4th, I resorted to the "Penny Fix," where you wrap pennies in electrical tape and place them on the GPU and CPU to act as heat sinks (Granted it did work for a while). In all, I think I went through maybe six 360 consoles by the time the Xbox One came out lmao.
