    truly next gen

    this was one of the first game which i thought was truly an amazing game and here is why

    story
    you play as frank west a photographer who hear some thing is happening in a small town so you hire a helicopter and fly over there
    you land on the shopping center and tell the guy to meet you in 3 days when you go in you see lots of zombies bashing at a door as people build a baracade to keep them out  but ofcurse something happens and the zombies get in

    graphics
    the graphics are not gears of war or crysis but they are good expesily in cut sceans the detail on the characters faces is very good considering how meny there are

    gameplay
    fighting off hundreds of onscreen zombies with tons of wepons is a lot of fun and lots of violent ways to kill them allways puts a smile on my face. you can rip out there guts smash there heads on the floor ruby tackle them cut thenm in half or just shoot them in the face
    there are lots of ways to play you can do your  mission, fight untill the helicopter arives, try to rescue as meny people as possible or do the side missions or if your very good do all of them

    dead rising is a fun game which i would recomend
    plese buy it now

It can be quite entertaining to see zombies get killed with Katanas, Shopping Carts, Lawnmow...

      A feast of zombie mayham spoiled by some bad design 0

       I’m not sure I’ve ever shouted so much at a game as I have at Dead Rising. In some ways it’s quite exceptional and, in others, rage-quit inducing. It’s a game with as many flaws as it has strengths and is difficult to recommend for that very reason. If, however, you can look your way past the instances of awkward and perverse design, you’ll enjoy a game which is not only engaging, but also interesting and unique in a lot of respects. You play as Frank West, a photojournalist, caught smack-ban...
