Dead Rising - FANTASTIC AND FRUSTRATING

I think the problem with 7 day survivor is that I personally think the achievement was designed for a unique experience. 7 day survivor was meant for a friday afternoon, your best friend rode the bus home from school to your house. Theres pizza rolls in the oven. the door is physically moist from all the 15 year old boy condensation. More sugar is consumed in liquid form than the entire european continent had even thought of before the year 1900. Its your third weekend in a row trying it. You pass the controller off every hour. YTPs are playing in the background. The sun rises at 8 am. The two of you have finally beat it. Your xbox profile has infinite bragging rights Thats what I always thought the spirit of the achievement was, not one dude trying it alone as pretty much part of his job.

[@tinybass8747]

I actually have a pretty fond memory of getting the 7 day survivor achievement. I stayed up all night to get it and it felt like a damn journey. It really puts you into more of a survivor mentality, where every zombie grapple is terrifying, food was much more valuable. Every time you see a character's name and health bar pop up in the distance was nerve racking and I loved every second of it.

[@nobodywantsthisfeature]

DR1 never gets enough credit for its writing and VA. Psychopaths aside, every character in the main plot feels like a believable, real person. No silly Hollywood heroics or dumb horror movie decisions, and I think it was a smart move to give everyone a very average joe appearance. None of the sequels recaptured that feeling of normal people being thrown together in a crazy situation

[@ryanstavnezer4087]

Glad to see you complete dead rising again. I still remember your rant on how freaking annoying it was to take survivors to a boss fight

[@wam1510]

I just finished this game for the first time and i gotta say i think its a masterpiece. I havent played any of the others but this first one seems so ahead of its time. The time sensitive quests (like in kingdom come), the weapon durability system (breath of the wild), and knowledge as a weapon (death loop). This game is so immersive. I beat it and immediately went back in because i wanted to try and save more people and take more pictures! Every run gets a little easier because im always discovering new things! Also, i absolutely love the plot, characters, and theme; theyre done perfectly for this videogame setting. I love how you can just ignore the whole main quest too. Frank said it best: Fantastic!

I completely understand why people can hate timers. You want to explore, take things in, don’t want to feel punished for taking your time. And yet, I absolutely *adore* the idea that the story can just go completely past you if you aren’t there for it. It would take a lot of effort but I’d like to see more games tackle the idea. Branching paths in case you miss something crucial. Like in Heavy Rain if you miss a clue that reveals information that would help you later, how could it play out without you having it? Or how in Morrowind it lets you kill key story characters but you can continue knowing you’ve affected the outcome. A straight game over tells you “yeah you missed something, go back”, but it’s cool to me that you can keep going and have to deal with the consequences. Dead Rising still impresses me.

[@Kirabetas]

Amusingly enough, Infinity Mode is what keeps me coming back to Dead Rising. Sure, the story mode is fun, but planning route, checking available survivors all while your health decreases gives the game an arcade feeling for me. Yes, the most optimal way to clear it is to stand in a safe zone eating food every 20 minutes, but it isn't the most fun way to do it. The game provides enough food to last Frank a solid 17 days. Instead of waiting while your health ticks down, I find it more fun to run around and explore. I've gotten the 7 Day Survivor achievement at least 5 times now, and I still love playing Infinity Mode.

[@AdamOusley]

I know you don't always like when people bring up the old episodes, but I have to say one of my favorite Completionist skits of all time was when you were all running into each other (like the survivors in this game) trying to get a good picture. Absolutely hilarious!

There was a console arcade in my neighborhood when I was young, a room filled with Xbox 360s. The year was 2007 and Halo 3 had just been released. The arcade was filled with people focused on Master Chiefs newest adventure, but I was unaware of Halo at 9 years old. I only knew what games my dad played with me. Me and my dad bought a few hours time and Deadrising is what we played. It blew my mind. Picture dozens and dozens of people focusing on Halo 3, and me and my father laughing like crazy throwing TVs from the second floor of a virtual mall. What a wonderful memory.

I had to agree with him. For me when I played it back as a rental it bored me. I had trouble figuring out where I was supposed to go and the "time" restraint discouraged my exploration.

[@remulaevergaze5342]

@@27Bayleefs The timer is the core of the game, it was designed around that timer, I believe that if the timer was removed then exploration would feel meaningless. Dead Rising 4 removed the timer and escort quests, and it is a terribly generic game, because those elements are what make Dead Rising what it is. I don't believe it's for everyone, but it doesn't need to be, trying to make the game appeal to everyone is why Dead Rising 4 failed so badly. Btw I believe there is a mod for the game that allows you to freeze the timer, giving you plenty of time to explore. Or alternatively Dead Rising 3 has a time limit but it's much more lenient.

This review was really stupid and inconsistent. First, how is the game goofy? Dead Rising 1's story is very serious and most of the comedy comes from the player dressing up in silly ways, where as the story is played straight. The only examples of comedy I can think of is with Stephen and even then it's more of a black comedy than anything else. Second saying the game is scary is something I also disagree with. The music, the cutscenes, the way it frames the tragedy of the psychopaths and the games main antagonist, not only is it disturbing seeing someone like Adam or Cliff latch on to the last thing they had before the outbreak but also shows how much is affected them to change them into those people. Also the breakdown that Frank has at the end is pretty nerve wrecking. Personally this review is awful and doesn't do the game justice.

For the next Dead Rising game, they should have two modes. One with a timer and one without a timer. That way, they can please everyone.

As a fan since the original game, the reason why so many of us like the timers and were upset they got taken away in 4 was because it’s one of the things that made Dead Rising unique. Without a timer, parts of the experience can feel dull, prime example being the infinity mode in 1 and sandbox in 2. Everything in the first two games are built around the timer system, and it has the player have to think about how to best deal with it. It also enforces that “everything is a weapon” because you have to balance between strong weapons and weapons that clear out hordes the fastest. It’s all about that tension, that to the wire moments you have, and it gives a greater sense of urgency to both gameplay and even the story. If you’re not quick enough you’ll have to make the tough calls at times, but surprisingly you can do everything in one run, hard as it is. Taking it out of 4 was streamlining the series hard for us OG fans, even though it was meant to “go back to its roots,” and it seemed like the more appealing the series tried to become by getting rid of or simplifying its core mechanics, the less interesting and more generic the games are. Even though it’s the central focus, Dead Rising was never about just killing zombies, and DR4 is a prime example of what happens when that’s all the developers seem to focus on.

@@jamesedleymusic There's not going to be a next Dead Rising game, the developers Capcom Vancouver shut downed and cancelled future series.

[@jamesedleymusic]

@@sharkjira9142 That doesn't mean there is no possibility of it happening. It could always be headed by another company. Besides, there's a new Timesplitters game coming, and no one thought that would happen.

@@jamesedleymusic Well, let’s see how many years it will take for it to come back. It’s been a while and there hasn’t been a word on the franchise.

I remember getting the megaman buster cannon. It was such a chore! But it was fun being megaman in this game. Loved it years ago when I owned the game.

Give the people what they want and cover dead rising 2 or 3!!!

[@RanCossack]

This video was FANTASTIC, and a joy to watch as always. Still wish I could of played this game way back when, but I can definitely see why it'd be a nightmare to complete. Keep up the great work, Capn.

To me this game will go down in history as the reason to get a TV with HDMI since it was basically unplayable on the old tube tvs
