    This game has a good idea behind it, but the execution is awful. They've made three mistakes while making this game. First is the time limit, which is stupid. You give us whole place to explore, but not enough time to explore it? How stupid can you be? But yeah it's a game from japan, so what I expect, most games from japan are full of s***. Second mistake is the saving. You save by goingThis game has a good idea behind it, but the execution is awful. They've made three mistakes while making this game.

But yeah it's a game from japan, so what I expect, most games from japan are full of s***. Second mistake is the saving. You save by going to the toilet. And like wtf is this supposed to be? This makes the game so frustrating, because you have to keep in mind, that you'll have to go to the toilet and it's mostly far away from your objectives, so it just becomes a drag and a waste of time. This whole game is a f**** waste of time. Third mistake are the weapons and how fast they'll get destroyed. I pick up something, I slash 3-4 zombies and that's all, it's gone. F*** this game and anyone who likes it. Pickens condemns.… Expand

    A vile stinker of a game. It's a essentially a beat 'em up focused on NPC escort missions with repetitive endlessly respawning enemies (only one type, zombies for the majority of the game, and there are big crowds everywhere) and a absurdly oversized map that makes everything a slog.

Combat is repetitive with only a few items being effective, the NPC AI is god awful, travel takes forever, and every event in the game is subject to strict timers, making this one a boring, irksome slog with almost no redeeming qualities other than the novelty of being able to body slam a zombie and take crotch shots with phone for bonus exp and the goofy psycho bosses.… Expand

    Why doesn't the game have autosave and when mission fail it plays back to previous save point, game updated to 2016 and still doesn't change anything, If it gives a faster attack speed than run button, it is acceptable

    If it wasn't for the dumb AI I'd like this game more. I've waiting for Dead Rising to be on other platforms other than Xbox.
    Was the wait worth it?
    Yep It sure was. The execution wasn't the best but it was one of the most memorable experiences yet. You're free to do anything and everything you want. Anything is a weapon.

    It was the first game so I won't hold anything too much on it. The psychopaths are top notch and the soundtrack was just too good. Frank West is a hero of Willamette and the Story is definitely something worth checking out... just try to deal with the bad AI.

    Tajm limit nije dobro uradjen, AI se ponasa kao degen i moram stalno da im pomazem itd iako napravim cist put za njih, prestao sam da igram kod isabele na kraju znaci moronski, i onaj glupi toki voki sto ne prestaje da pisti jebote ubio me u pojam. Mrzelo me isto da se non stop vracam istim putem na isti nacin itd. Ne bi vise igrao. Nisam je ni zavrsio.

    Just finished my playthrough loved it very much i played it after finishing Dead rising 2 back in 2013 which should tell you something, i love the graphics so much the game engine is very beautiful can't get bored of it, and gameplay i like how the story is locked with a timer gives the game more purpose and feel like you need to make the most of your time playing the game.

    Overall great game.

    This game has a lot of bugs. The gameplay needs different things. You are just running and running and running and running.... First 2-3 hours are very enjoyable but after that you wants to be end and you are stops playing this game.

    This game had an amazing premise, and a beautiful execution. Sure there are bugs, and if you play for too long it can get repetitive, but that repetitiveness isn't always a bad thing.

The arcade style does make me not want to play ever again sometimes, but always I can come back after a break, and play my heart out again. My main gripe with the game is the absolutely stupid AI. Both the people who you ally with, and the enemies can be braindead at points. But in it's defence, this was a graphically hard game to run at the time, thanks to the at some points ridiculous amount of zombies on screen, and Capcom Vancouver (at the time Blue Castle Games) was a quite small team. Overall, I would recommended this game to literally anyone who enjoys gaming, but I would give them a caution that it can be very frustrating at times. Especially achievement hunting. Lord, 7 day survivor was pure agony.… Expand

    This game is one of the best zombie sandbox games ever made. The gameplay is pretty fun and exciting. There are so many ways for zombie killing that you can spend a lot of time discovering them all. The only reason to continue following the story is a strict time limit.

    Highly recommended.    … Expand

    Множество возможностей, использование всего как оружия, качественный сюжет. Многие механики настолько хорошо вплетены в игровой процесс,что первая ассоциация-это игра от Rocstar "Bully".
    Но конечно же из-за определённых косяков и спорных решений - эта игра является довольно противоречивым продуктом.
    Я был наслышан,что игру необходимо пройти несколько раз, что бы поглотить весь контент. Так как игра на время, ВСЯ ИГРА, и из-за того, что ты не прокачан, ты попросту не можешь всех спасти и убить всех второстепенных боссов.
    - первое спорное решение и основное - вся ига на время, что не даёт попросту насладится песочницей и проходить игру своём темпе.
    Я был готов к этому и приступил к первому прохождению. Сюжетные миссии проходил безупречно, а второстепенные, как получалось.На вертолёт в финале особо не спешил и получил закономерную концовку. (опоздал на вертолёт)
    Второе прохождение было практически таким и не менее увлекательным, второстепенных заданий выполнил больше, так как был прокачан. И вот, МОМЕНТ ИСТИНЫ, то что в каком-то смысле сломило меня и опустошило.
    ФИНАЛ игры, время позволяет, я успеваю на крышу, даже жду несколько минут реального времени, что бы дождаться вертолёта.
    КЛЮЧЕВОЕ, НЕ ПОВТОРЯЙТЕ МОЮ ОШИБКУ - Решаю поиграть в реализм и становлюсь на краешек вертолётной площадки, что бы было место для посадки вертушки. Но скрипт срабатывает таким образом, что я якобы не пришёл на крышу и запускается концовка, где я не успеваю на вертолёт. Это был, мягко говоря, п*з*ец.
    *Я так понял, что просто нужно было стать посередине площадки и скрипт сработает.
    - первый откровенный косяк - кривое и не продуманное срабатывание скриптов.
    *Пришлось скачивать стороннее сохранение, что бы пройти игру на настоящую концовку.
    Пробовал играть ещё, но выше перечисленные косяки, и которые будут дальше, просто мешали получать удовольствие от первого Dead Rising.
    - Убогий и ужасный искусственный интеллект-когда ты спасаешь одного, это норма, особенно если дать ему оружие, сможет и за себя постоять. Но у нас же игра на время и порою ты ведешь целую араву народу, и обязательно, перед входом к безопасной зоне, ты замечаешь, что один из *диотов (обычно больше) упёрся в горшок с цветком. Помните, что все локации кишат зомби. Разумеется, кто-то да откинет свои никчёмные копыта.
    Время и ИИ, время и ИИ (искусственный интеллект) ... - аспекты которым необходимо исправление. ИИ - это откровенная недоработка. Время же, спорный компонент и в чём-то интересная идея, но его тоже нужно на*рен выбрасывать.
    Хотелось бы верить, что Capcom, после того,как ремейкнут всё необходимое из серии Resident Evil,смогут переключаться на Dead Rising,но это только мечты.

    After all these years Dead Rising’s design is still absolutely unique. There’s no way you’ll finish the game in the first attempt. You’ll have to repeat it over and over again to work out the optimum scenario, but Dead Rising is so good you won’t mind that at all. [12/2016, p.56]

    Though it hasn't aged that well, Dead Rising remains a good experience. The game can be tough as nails due to the intentional design choices and flaws that stand out in comparison to modern conventions.

    In 2016, Dead Rising is fantastic nostalgic trip that benefits from the higher resolution, frame rate and graphical options greatly, despite the overall textures and models not being as magical as they once were.
