Dead Rising
This game rocks! Anyone else with an xbox360 pick it up? It's kinda relaxing just going around killing zombies with stuff. The weapons are just perfect; they wear out rather quickly so you're never feeling like some other games where the only reason you stop using a weapon is because you're bored of it. You'll be using anything and everything you can get your hands on in this game. I like that.
Plus the zombies are like bags of blood so killing them is fun to look at too.

Good news for european gamers i guess.
"The interesting thing about this level of violence and gore isn't that it's present in the first place - after all, zombie films and other horror and action movies have been blowing apart the undead in showers of claret for decades, and "decency" campaigners seem to have given up on moaning about escapist fantasy movies quite some time ago. No, what's interesting is that despite the game having a rocky time with censorship and ratings boards elsewhere in the world, in Britain it will be released entirely uncensored, with not a single change to the content."

I liked the game at first, but I think over time it becomes monotonous and boring.

I will admit that I've been playing dofus more than dead rising. I just find going in and chowing through zombies relaxing. I've really no interest in beating the game because I hate time limits.

I seen the commericals for this game, I don't like consoles anymore. Last console I had was a sega genesis, after I got my first PC I flipped off all consoles and embraced the world of better graphics. But this is the only console game besides halo 1 that I really wanted to play for PC. Hopefully it will be released for us later. I will never ever buy a console again. But this game looks really cool, kill zombies with anything in the mall, how cool is that, I've wanted to kill regular people at the mall for just getting in my way, so this is right up my alley.

I bought this game last night, and played for a few hours. I'm definitely impressed by it. It's fun as all get out, even my gf and our teenaged son enjoyed just watching me play. The only thing I have to whine about, really, is the save game system. I had to start over three times due to accidental death, and had to go almost to the beginning each time.
Despite that, it remains fun, and I'll have to look harder for save points.

Yeah I try to save after any major event. You can save in the bathrooms don't forget. The hardest thing for me is that I don't really care about the story at all, just making my guy uber so when I die and it says "save and restart or go back to your last save" I'm more inclined to just restart and keep the new levels I got.
I hate how those three psycopaths in the park keep respawning though.

I bought this game cause I enjoyed the killing in the DEMO.....but was very disapointed when i put the retail game in my 360 and saw there was a time limit.  So i haven't played it since.....got to where the spanish guy is shooting at me in the food court or whatever and couldn't get passed it so i just quit .

It took a while for me to know a good way to kill him, just have to learn his patterns like any other boss.

Definitely. Sometimes you just have to take your time, look at his patterns and you'll see there are places where it is very hard for him to hit you - and where you can shoot him.
I've also found that sometimes running around zombies is a far better way to survive. I'm still having boatloads of fun, but damn, this game is hard!
