    An extremely funny and creative zombie action game that is made even better with its co-op feature. It has a pretty bland and dull story, but it has some of the most fun game-play in a zombie game.

    One of my favourite games ever, now on Playstation 4 with a stable framerate and graphical improvements. I do prefer Off The Record, but the original Dead Rising 2 is a classic. If you're gonna play this game, play it on the PS4.

    This game is fun. There are several ways to kill the zombies, but there's nothing very special about it, the story is mediocre, the graphics are OK, but still, a worth to play, very enjoyable to sit and play for some hours,

    Dead Rising 2 isn't as good as the first game but its still a good game, with the inclusion of combo weapons and more clothing items makes it a ton of fun just like the first game, but gone is the camera from the first game which was disappointing. The characters in this game aren't as interesting as the first game either which is why i find this game a tad disappointing but overall DeadDead Rising 2 isn't as good as the first game but its still a good game, with the inclusion of combo weapons and more clothing items makes it a ton of fun just like the first game, but gone is the camera from the first game which was disappointing.

    Es simplemente increíble, la jugabilidad del juego prácticamente me hace darle la nota. No tiene la historia mejor elaborada del mundo, pero no quita que con la rejugabilidad y todo hagan una maravilla de juego. entretenimiento puro.

    running around killing zombies has never been more fun in a game. super fun level design although half the map is totally useless. fun weapons and crafting combinations. missions are fun and interesting, but some of the boss battles are poorly designed and unnecessarily difficult for a zombie game

    Dead Rising 2 still feels like such a great improvement over the original and with this remastered version, most of the technical issues from the past console versions have been fixed.

    Waiting for the fourth installment of the series, Capcom is celebrating the tenth anniversary of Dead Rising with a remastered version of the three adventures of Frank West and Chuck Greene. The renovation work does nothing but conform to today's standards, presenting the three episodes in high definition with a frame rate set to 60 fps.

    Overall it’s well worth revisiting Fortune City on your PS4.
