"Convicts that don't fucking respawn every day goddamnit" would have been a good bullet point.
What was so difficult about the old system? You're given a mission (go and rescue X, get an item from shop Y etc) and told the time you have to finish it. You can check your watch at any time and, if you know the shortcuts around the mall, every area is easy to access within 5 minutes. Go there, do the mission, and return with any nearby hostages. If you have time before the next mission, go and save some hostages or just go and mess around. Keep an eye on the time and return before the deadline. FFS it isn't difficult! If you can't do it and you fail, then just continue the game and mess around until the end of the game a few hours later. Or restart and keep your stats. What is so hard to understand? I'm asking this to everyone btw as most 360 owners were too stupid to understand this system and complained relentlessly - "it doesn't do what I expected..it's shit. Waa-waa-waa"

no way, real fans know they did this to make it casual friendlyChinner said:
Wat? :lol Adding a better save system is bad now? Id rather have a better save system than an unforgiving one.123rl said:Love the nameShame they changed the save system...that was the whole point of the game, idiots! You choose which missions to do and who to leave behind. In a real crisis do you get to say "Oh shit...I should have been over there instead of over here so now I can't save that person. Pause, load game, and choose an earlier checkpoint" The save system was fucking excellent because it rewarded people who finished the game more than once and saw everything, got the true ending, unlocked everything etc. Now they've turned it into a generic shooter save point system. So it's Dead Rising minus the save system, the hordes of enemies (ie the thing that gives it its atmosphere), and its complex gameplay. But at least you get to shake the controller and point at the screen. I was willing to overlook the cut-down version because it had new content and I love the game. I can accept certain changes but changing the save system will ruin everything that makes the game unique. No sale now...Capcom have broken the game and changed it because people were too stupid to understand the first time you play is to understand the game. YOU DON'T TRY AND FINISH THE GAME ON YOUR FIRST ATTEMPT!!
Chop till you drop.....SOLD.

I'm glad that they have left some time priority in the game, sounds like they want to keep some of the intensity without risking people missing parts of the plot. I have my fingers crossed for a mercenaries style quick play option, or is this not necessary (haven't played the original)?

No, getting three miniguns would be cool.123rl said:Because getting THREE miniguns is a bad thing?
Respawning bosses when there's absolutely no sensical reasons for them to respawn is bad and reeks of amateur design.

I will still be picking this up. I think they are changing it a lot to the point where it is almost a totally different game. The only thing I hope is that if there is a Dead Rising 2, it will be a sequel to the 360 game and not this different Wii version.

I am pretty sure that Capcom has removed the function to change Frank's clothes, so that it works with rendered cutscences from the Xbox360 Version.
What do you think?

I don't think they will care. Basically you go into a cutscene as Mega Man frank and see him in his regular outfit.

Either that or they just won't care if he's in his normal clothes in cutscenes vs gameplay.

yeah. they didn't care in PS2/PC RE4 either. still it's not a feature i'd greatly miss if they have pulled it.Linkzg said:
Yeah, but it's not HD.
But I'll buy it anyway as long as it offers enough incentive over the original. (Yes, I know about the removal of certain things like Otis and the camera?)
Also, I got that shirt too. The day I picked my game up I asked the guy if they had anymore shirts left (Since I preordered and he didn't offer it to me.) and he had one brick left. (Don't you just love those vacuum sealed t-shirt bricks?

Real Dead Rising fans know that this is a THREAT to OUR BELOVED game. I've heard rumours, you know. These rumours, which come from very reliable sources, show us that Capcom will release a update for the Xbox making it incredibly casual. Zombies will be replaced with football fans. This is a a HUGE threat to us videogame fans!The Faceless Master said:
Yeah yeah yeah, I've heard it all:
"but but but, with more wii sales show us that the chance of a sequel will increase"
"ga ga goo goo zombies r scary wahh wahhh milk is hot"
"heh i cant wait to combine dead rising with wii fit and use it as a devcie to actually RUN AWAY from all 12 zombies!"
You Wii fans can personally shove it! Obivously, us REAL DEAD RISING fans scoff to ourselves at your crazy claims about a sequel. WE KNOW that if a sequel will be made, that it will INSTANTLY be casual and will not fufill our desires and personally we would prefer NOT TO HAVE A SEQUEL at all so that we know that when Capcom TAKES OUT ADVICE they will make the most BESTEST game ever which will please all 12 of us fans.
You wii gamers are just fully intent on ruining it for everyone, arnt you?

I have that shirt. I never wore it, but I have it.
So I guess this is worth picking up mostly because it will actually play quite differently from the original Dead Rising. Since they are using a completely different engine. The MT Framework was evolved from the Onimusha engine. Now they are using an enhanced RE4 engine for this new title.

Time to break out the old CRT...
definately, my old gamecube was hooked up to a 28 inch widescreen late model Sony CRT, progresive scan and all that jazz...compared to now, where I've got a LCD 32inch philips hd and a wii, the new tele great for hd films...but for wii i'm not so sure.
I can remember being blown away by the graphics of cube games like FX zero GX, Jungle beat, REmake, viewtiful joe the list goes on,
with the motionplus finally giving to us 1:1 wiimote action, cant Nintendo just make a little flash drive that turns the Wiis visual output to HD?

I really dislike it when I see on blogs (KOHLER!!! *shakes fist*) something about how the save system or the restart system was somehow a flaw to the first game. I loved that, personally. But because of all that public bitching, Capcom's gonna neuter the game. Great. Let's hope maybe somehow it will survive in a special mode or something. 'Cuz that was really the appeal of Dead Rising for me and I ended up playing through several times, something I rarely do with any games.
