Ranking EVERY Psychopath/Maniac/Boss Fight in the Dead Rising Series from WORST to BEST

This is all my opinion if you couldn't guess.
I love Dead Rising and it's a shame DR4 was dog poopoo cuz I would love to have more games in the series.
Most of the footage was recorded by me with some exceptions
Some footage was taken from Deathmule and fatdaddy12 on KZbin
BGM is that oh so iconic Mall music from the first game
buttah

Pretty neat Harjit was number 2, wasn’t expecting that considering the average player doesn’t know he exists. Nice list.

[@elliotsturtplus340]

That is true hell I didn’t even know he’s basically the reason why Chucks Wife is dead I mean seriously this character sounds like a big deal for chucks story yet is treated as a silent psychopath exclusive for DLC, I mean honestly, I would’ve liked it if he made another apprance for DR3 unfortunately that never happened since that could’ve been a interesting side mission

[@someneet145]

I'm really fucking glad he is, his boss theme and introduction was badass.

[@fumothfan9]

I remember him on xbox version. He was tough but reading more into it made sense why case west had only 1 real psychopath / boss fight. He is a tank both health wise and attack wise. Even his death scene of being swarmed by zombie virus queen insects was memorable.

[@nekogamer2508]

[@shaggysnax01]

Harjit Singh stands next to Nick Ramos as one of Dead Rising's most underappreciated characters, and given what a massive role he played in Chuck and Katey's shared traumas (and, frankly, across the board), it's fair to say that he's the most underutilized antagonist in this franchise. He and his team deployed the Queens that brought Nevada to its knees, killing hundreds of thousands of people in Las Vegas *alone,* including Chuck's wife (who subsequently infected Katey before Chuck himself put her down), and effectively quadroupled Phenotrans stock prices from the bolstered sales (and the *much* higher demand now that outbreaks were common occurrences since the Willamette Outbreak of 2006) of Zombrex, which only provided twelve-hour relief at the time. Of course, you'd only know that by reading Road to Fortune. An interquel set between Dead Rising 1 and Case Zero, it was published a year after Dead Rising 2's release and provided further context on Singh and his roles in both the Las Vegas Outbreak and at Phenotrans. When we face Singh - the only Psychopath in Case West - during the climax, we're met with a generically stoic goon who smacks Isabela out of existence and gives no fucks about it. While it becomes instantly apparent that Chuck and Frank need each other to take him down - what with his strength, size, training, weaponry, goons, and the fact that he's in his home territory, Singh's screen time is nonetheless short and his development is non-existent as a result. Still, it was satisfying seeing him get swarmed by Queens, given the context after the fact.

The only redeeming part of fighting TK's chopper is that the spitball gun does massive damage to it. For some reason (buggy code?) the spitballs are treated as being thrown instead of launched/fired, so the spitball gun cheeses it hilariously quickly.

Pretty good list, I have never played DR4 so it was neat to learn about it. I do wish you included the rewards a bit more, most of them just give you a survivor(s) to rescue, but also things like combo recipes, Cliff’s machete or Seymour’s six-shooter being one of the best guns in the game. Adam would still top the list because of his rewards, but it could jumble the list a bit.

You're right, I should've of mentioned more rewards cuz a lot of the ones you can get are really cool like customizable bikes after Leon and free molotovs after saving Paul

[@darwinaguilero3175]

You honestly make a list I completely agree with, though I would probably put Cliff at number one just due to how intimidating I find him covered in blood and gore and being voiced by Steve Blum. Plus, the fact he meets Frank at eye level despite stalking the whole fight. His reveal at just being a broken veteran was pretty sad. Harjit definitely earns that spot at number 2 due to how it’s the best culmination of Frank and Chuck’s teamwork overcoming a guy who started two outbreaks, especially one that killed Chuck’s wife and infected Katy, though I wish they figured out that he was the cause at some point. Plus, his theme is great and he’s probably the most physically imposing boss in all of the series. He legit looks like he could take on Chuck AND Frank at the same time. Great work, cheers.

[@fumothfan9]

Id agree also but adam is just iconic for DR franchise. Everything about him is memorable and the rewards are also fantastic. Harjit was xbox exclusive so sadly unless you read the comics he is non existent to the rest of the players on other systems. Cliff for sure deserves top 5 spots honestly. The machete book and cleared / changed hardware store really add immersion to the game

Doing so will cause there to be 2 Harry Wongs: One's the corpse of the one you were fighting, and a _new one_ will appear, "triggering" phase 2, which you can just walk out on.

I love your tier list. I always wanted to make one for myself but never had chance. Interestingly you put Stacey higher than Sullivan which is rare as most people prefer Sully as big bad of Fortune City disaster, including me but still I like her fight a little bit more. Some say that Sullivan has better music but worse fight while Stacey has better fight but worse music (except final phase). Or the location, actually I prefer the fight in the Uranus Zone than on the rooftop of the Yucatan Casino. I even have my own perfect vision of DR2 glued toghether with OTR as one continuity and I so want to share it with fellow DR series fans. That is the real shame that DR4 completely removed psychos and replaced them with maniacs. I mean, Satan Claus with intro and death scene would be amazing (Adam the Clown vibes as he would saw people getting eaten during Black Friday and that would cause him to get insane). Or Sandra or Fontana. Wasted opportunities as Psychopaths are the core of the games and their strong points. The thing I like about DR4 is the mall itself.

[@jeffreeves3137]

This is why dead rising 4 was a disappointment to me. The psychopath bosses are my favorite part of this series. Their intros and deaths especially lol

[@SchazmenRassir]

A helpful tip for you: I always fight Leon in Fortune Park, between the Royal Flush entrance and the Silver Strip. Any survivors, I equp with ranged weapons, and keep there, while I go out a little further to lure him in. When he approaches, jump kick to make him crash, then approach and wail with any combo weapon you have. The Defiler, which you use in the footage, is a BAD CHOICE, because it's so slow and messes with your air attack. The Pole Weapon works best because its range lets you stay away from the bike's saws.

[@coltonwilkie241]

True but also take into account stuff like lore and unlockables. DR1 psychos felt like literal people pushed to the edge. You even make one aka the camera dude during the interaction. You unlocked some stuff survivors it exclusive weapons but not rewarded a lot as other games but each reward mattered. DR2 felt more like the same as DR1 but instead felt like already previous losers or wagies who went to fortune city to make it big or some form of normalcy back before zombies spread in the country. Only to be met or meet the guy being framed for F.C. outbreak, Chuck, and snap. Some did like the postal guy only when they met him. I also like how you can save a bit more psychos than DR1. Im DR1 idr entirely but only the molotov guy you could save. Everyone else gets or has to get killed/dies. You can save some like the pop star the tiger etc. Again idr exactly how many. The new combo reward cards at the time were phenomenal. DR2 OTR and other small installments (case zero and west) felt more worked upon. Especially OTR they fixed a lot of the issues in DR2 the main game DR3 felt like okay these were already long past psychos and you just so happened to meet them. Understandable. DR4 though most felt wacky and out of place. There were some good ones but overall mostly lacking.

That one idea about making a Dead Rising game where you play as a psychopath would be interesting, but considering they make it optional to be psychotic in the games and kill survivors yourself, that would likely never happen. Although, it would be cool, especially with the new mechanics and view they could give for it that's similar to Gears of War when you play as a Locust in Horde. Maybe have a duel view thing, as they did for games such as Halo The MCC and The Medium, where it will show what the psychopaths see and why they're doing they are after losing their minds, similar to Cliff Hudson in the first game, with another that shows the reality of what they're doing. For example, there could be a boss fight where they imagine a group of survivors doing something evil in the world or trying to do something bad to them, but then the other views shows they're just regular people in hoodies with hand pistols that went out searching for food and got attacked by you.

Most of them aren't true boss fights, but if you added some of them that aren't really either at the start of the list then they should've made it too, such as the optional fight between Nick and Gary. Also, I wish you did play the 3rd Dead Rising 3 DLC, as that was the main boss fight you forgot to include and it was pretty cool. The other DLCs from that game didn't have any whatsoever.

The evan fight was so wholesome for me especially the 2nd stage made me chuckle seeing him run around like hes on stuff 😂❤

Antoine sounds more French than Italian

[@lmddhumour]

Kinda wish the psychos in 4 had cutscenes it would have made them more interesting and memorable

[@cplegogame25]

The Maniacs were thrown in last minute. DR4 originally wasn’t going to have psychopaths, but when the fans heard about that they were pissed. So the Maniacs were made to compensate for that. Hence why most of them are pretty bad

[@marktomlin5818]

4 also took away the time limit

[@benjaminbonser2505]

@cplegogame25 Yeah, I'd blame the game director for that. If I were a billionaire, I'd buy the rights and make dead rising 5 and port dead rising 3 over to PlayStation 4

[@benjaminbonser2505]

But to be honest I would have took having no bosses over the bosses we had gotten

[@jagi6170]

Chef Antoine is for me, one of the more memorable psychopaths from Dead Rising 2. Not only was he hard since he could heal himself, he was also quite notably overtuned, his health was high and he hit like a burning truck. But then at the time i realised, after having lost the fight against him four times in a row, that the Burning Skull's heavy attack could pretty much just destroy him in seconds. He was one of the bosses that did indeed got nerfed in Of The Record.

[@tracyl8939]

If i made a dead rising psychopaths ranking the dead rising 2 snipers would be at my worst also I wouldnt include dead rising 4

The game really shows that during a zombie apocalypse, its not the zombies you should worry about

I always kinda wished after you find out Annie is Katey, Snowflake tags along with Chuck. Just a cool thing they could’ve done

[@witecatj6007]

There is a way to cheese the fight with TK. You need to drink a Spitfire right before you enter the arena. You keep the buff after the cut scene and can do some decent damage before it runs out.

Ngl your KZbin personality kinda comes off like that dude that flipped shit over pronouns and it's a little grating how piss and vinegar leaks out of some of your comments. But i do agree with your placements, and i think you make good commentary on the characters. I rate this video 7/10

Unabashedly angry can be enjoyable but I feel you. This is my first video from this dude and I like his personality I wouldn't compare it to HeelsvsBabyface (only aware of guy because of the pronouns thing don't care enough to watch him).

[@drmarikfox2583]

I always liked Amber and Becca cause I was just bad enough at those games back then that I needed healing constantly and all the hp items being alcoholic meant I was on a timer and had to pace my heals or risk throwing up the whole fight. Obviously in hindsight I coulda just prepped with non-alch healing but it still left a great impression.

rerelease of dead rising 2 on ps5 is insanely glitchy so most of the psychopaths are no issues cause the get stuck allowing you to just stand there and wack them with knife gloves

I always cheese the Isabella fight with the mini chainsaw. She only needs a few hits so honestly you can just rush her and tank the damage with a few heals. Guns might be safer but they're way too slow.

You can cheese the Isabela fight by jumping in the fountain, she’ll try to drive towards you but can’t get past the base of it

I absolutely love Bibi as I always love a rhythm game! Also if you listen to the full 10 min version of her song they recorded SO much for the boss! Its so funny to listen to. My fave is "WHO STOPPED THE MUSIC!" about half way through :P

[@TheHippyProductions]

my favorite might just be the clown's brother in Off the Record. Im still devastated that Frank getting with Rebecca Chang and his encounter with the clown are non canon, because theyre just perfect for him. Ive replayed 1 and off the record so many times just to fall in love with Frank again for his priceless one liners and backhanded comments. I wish more male protags had the kinda morally grey sass that he has sometimes. also, Chuck disappears in his psycho fight because it's implied he got the sense knocked into him and thats how he's the co op character instead of just some guy. also also, tigers have a lifespan of 10-15 years :( tho some have a lifespan as long as 26 in the wild, so we can still say it was a missed opportunity to have Chuck flying in riding Snowflake in 3...because fuck you she's not dead I refuse to believe it

[@jeffreeves3137]

I like Evan as well lol I underestimated him my first time playing that game years ago he was tough first time. I also love his quips “I don’t dig flat chicks” lol

Teddy confounded me because, go figure, I did not find it intuitive to try to open a door that I know is locked so I didn't and the game won't let you destroy the breaker boxes until you try to open the door. That was annoying. The Helicopter is really silly because a toy spitball gun can ruin it. You really need to put a lot of space between yourself and Snowflake with the meat in between the two of you for her to play ball. I feel like you're not supposed to try to hit Leon with the bike, I think you're just supposed to use it to close in. If you were supposed to use it offensively it probably would've been a Slicecycle instead of a regular bike.

[@GenericProtagonist7]

Leon's music has been my go-to workout music since the game came out, I'M THE ULTIMATE BEST!
