dead rising can you wait a month?

[Raisedbyflames]

ive spat my dummie out now so prepare for whining

well the games out soonish in the usa add a month on top and you get the release date for us brits and the rest of europue.

im going to do some scouting on the web too see if its region free if it is well im buying it.

ok why do we haveto wait longer i just dont want to wait that long,

[phatmuther]

i can wait a month (Y)

[Raisedbyflames]

ill settle for the euroupe only special edition, cos they have blocked out pal systerms from all other versions

[phatmuther]

special editions are always pretty rubbish with content, i only like em for the metal tins :cool:

didnt get no metal one with oblivion, understanable, but they could have done a wooden case :D

[Raisedbyflames]

well i could find the special edition version of oblivion, i like my pdz metal case.

all the 360 quake 4s were the equivlant to the pc special edition you get dvd full of making of movies and quake 2 which is good

[JJBDude]

I'll wait a month easy. I plan on only renting it anyway.

[Raisedbyflames]

looks likethis its uk only limited edition and it looks like theirs no crappy plastic sleave

[just Jam Man]

Just going to get the normal version when it comes out here in the UK. I'll be too endorsed in Saints Row to really care that much! But i still cant wait for this!

[cazbhoy]

one of my most wanted games so im not sure if I can wait. Will consider getting it soon if it is region free

[Raisedbyflames]

one of my most wanted games so im not sure if I can wait. Will consider getting it soon if it is region free

wont find out for definate til its out but it looks like pal is locked out

[just Jam Man]

No mate its not region-free! Well at least not for us PAL heads anyway!

[Raisedbyflames]

we are the only lot getting the special edition as far as i know the only place i could find info on it was the capcom forums, you get a metalcase and some extra books inside i think its a guide tothe mall.

[Achilles06]

heh i can'y wait until this is released, :) I'm not goin to pay £5 more for a Tin Case though, just keep it normal :)

I'll get a Saints Row Tin case but not DR w00t w00t roll on thezombies.

[just Jam Man]

Yeh but i mean that doesnt really make up for bloomin giving it to us a month late!

[Raisedbyflames]

[Kalou]

Time to revive this thread :D

Have you all sene the videos on IGN? they are fantastic, they really changed my mind about this game and after spending 20 minutes watching most of them I will definately be buying it. Some things you can do on the game is unbelievable and I can't wait to buy it along with Saints Row.

I don't mind if it's a short game, I will play it a few times anyway as it will be impossible to do everything in the one go.

[linkofhyrule]

So no metal tin over here in the US? :( I love those things!

Oh well, I probably won't be buying it anyway..

BTW Kalou, what makes you think it's a short game?

[Kalou]

Don't know, I heard people say it was short :D

Demo is due to be released in 15 minutes apparently, hope so :D:D:D:D

[mjmaskrey]

Yeah it's available now!

:)

[DONK]

Demo is now on the MP for download :halo: :geek:

[Fleeboi]

OMG, that's file size is HUGE, it's gonna take me around 8 hours to download that, jeez.

[just Jam Man]

lol especially because i overtookyou almost instantly after you started quite a bit before me!

[Fleeboi]

Quite a bit? Try 5 minutes loser.

[Kalou]

Dissapointing demo really, took around 2 hours WITH 10mbit and I had to play it three times to get the full 15 minutes out of it.

I walked into some room after 2 minutes and it came up with stuff about the game and the demo closed, loaded it up and went into the warehouse 5 minutes into it, again got a cut-scene before the demo closed, how god damn annoying is this?

Good game though, definately be buying this.

[linkofhyrule]

Kind of sudden, I'll go download it after I finish my game

[cazbhoy]

Dont go through any of the doors, the 15 minutes is limited to the section of the mall that you are in. If you try to access any new sections then the demo ends

[just Jam Man]

lol suppose its a good wayof erm ending the demo....about 95 percent now!

[bingo83]

Just nabbing this just now. Hopefully it will be the duggs danglies :)

[just Jam Man]

Hmm cant say i am mighily impressed although i amgoing to give the demo alot more tries and then see if i want the game!

[Ric111984]

I thought it was a good but limited demo.
The way you can pick up everything is great and the amount of on screen enemies is brilliant.
Give the bowling ball a try or get the zombies to slip on some cooking oil!:)

[Daniel 89]

Its lots of fun killing all those zombies with different weapons good cliff hanger right at the end of the demo.

[Killer 57]

Played it, Loved it, Will buy it.

[cazbhoy]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2XqYQ5P9fc

Here is a video of how to get hold of a katana in the demo

[linkofhyrule]

just played it a couple of times, it's definitely got me interested but there wasn't all that much variety.

they had clubs, box-like things, bowling balls, guns, and skateboards..
that's all the variety i saw.

hopefully they'll have more in the full version though

wasn't interested at all, def am now though. at least a rent now (Y)

[phatmuther]

of course theres more :D
its only a demo remember ;)

i believe its 250 different things you can use to play blood sports with (Y)

[linkofhyrule]

yeah what i mean is a lot of the different things just look different but do the exact same stuff

250 things could just be like 10 with different skins on

[Uriel Septim]

tis game is pretty good, wil be getting saints row and splinter cell double agent 1st tho, lot of fun liked smashing the zombies with the sledge hammer

[Daniel 89]

tis game is pretty good, wil be getting saints row and splinter cell double agent 1st tho, lot of fun liked smashing the zombies with the sledge hammer
Wasn't it a fire axe?

[Uriel Septim]

Wasn't it a fire axe?

may have been cant remember

[linkofhyrule]

no it said sledgehammer if you dropped it

could've been a fire axe though, acted like one

[phatmuther]

but there wasn't all that much variety.

they had clubs, box-like things, bowling balls, guns, and skateboards..
that's all the variety i saw.

Boomerang

I cant wait for the chainsaw/lawnmower/hedge strimmer!:)

[cazbhoy]

theres also an uzi that can be found aswell

[crashlock]

I wish demos would clearly tell you what's included. Like:
" Hi, Welcome to the Dead Rising Demo.. It lasts for 15 mins as long as you stay in the main area of the mall. If you move into other areas there will be a cut scene and the demo ends. If you die the demo ends. Enjoy our demo!"
Is that so hard to include on the start page??

Great game :) Genius Capcom! But graphics aren't next gen tho :(

[linkofhyrule]

^ Dead Rising Video Review!

They said a ton of bad stuff about it but still a 9.0! Very good rating!

[Fleeboi]

I loved this demo, the ammount of things you could do is staggering, I loved jabbing coathangers into people's necks, and putting loads of lego and horses masks onto the zombies and taking a photo, that was awesome. Also, the animations he does when you change your clothes and put on a horses head is hilarious, definatley getting this game.

[StiMpACk]

i didnt stick around long enough to find all those items and weapons like the uzi i quit within first 4 mins ;/ iono felt repetative

[phatmuther]

i didnt like the aiming system on it.
when you go into photo mode you use the right thumb stick to move the camera about - fine just like a normal FPS game
but when youve got a gun or cd's or something and go into aiming mode you have to use the left thumb stick, which is RUBBISH! (Y) i hope you can change that

[padds78]

Yeah i dont like the aim either. Oh and phat your sig is crap(N)

[phatmuther]

i shall change it then, just for you (Y)

[Tauren]

if you hold RT (i think, could be LT) you can aim like you would in an FPS.

[padds78]

i shall change it then, just for you (Y)
Aww thanks m8 (Y) (Y) (Y) (Y)

[phatmuther]

if you hold RT (i think, could be LT) you can aim like you would in an FPS.
yeah thats what im talking about, when you go into that aiming mode you can only use the left thumb stick to aim, not the right one, the i normally use :(

is that one ok padds?

[Nirav]

can anyone please tell me where can i get hold of some cooking oil.

[Fleeboi]

yeah thats what im talking about, when you go into that aiming mode you can only use the left thumb stick to aim, not the right one, the i normally use :(

is that one ok padds?

That's one of the things that annoys me too, when you aim with the camera, you can strafe, and move around with the left stick, with the weopan aim, you just stand there, definatley needs to change.

[padds78]

Yeah m8 much better lol;)

[Ric111984]

can anyone please tell me where can i get hold of some cooking oil.

In the Kitchen top left of the bottom floor, normally a lady outside of it with a shopping trolley. Jump over the counter and its next to the orange juice on the floor.

[Fleeboi]

Does anyone know what you put in the microwave? I thought baking powder would have been the item, but I tried that and it did nothing. There's got to be something, because you can put a frying pan on a stove for 2,000 pp and it heats it up.

[phatmuther]

what about a zombie hand?
havent tried it, but it would be like idle hands then :cool:

[Killer 57]

Booo I loved your sig Phat :D

[phatmuther]

what, the pregnant kick one?

[Killer 57]

Haha yeah, I cried with laughter when I first saw it :D

[phatmuther]

haha yeah it was good, simple but good. i thinks padds has a baby on the way thats why he didnt like it, got a new one though, not showing up at the mo for some reason :brow:

[AfroJoe]

I like your new one.

What was the old one like? I don't think I saw it. :s

[phatmuther]

ill see if i can find it again (Y)

EDIT

[Killer 57]

Haha yeah thats the one. Oh and I can't see your current sig.

[phatmuther]

no i couldnt either but its working for me now :brow: tempremental i think

[AfroJoe]

Hmm, I've always been able to see it.

At least, well, since this afternoon.

[mjmaskrey]

I don't like it...but I'm not one to complain.

:)

[phatmuther]

the new or the old? ill change it, im not bothered :)

[mjmaskrey]

Nah...the old one. Kicking a pregnant woman in the stomach one.

:)

[phatmuther]

ah right cool (Y) well ill edit it out now, AJ's seen it

[Killer 57]

Call me Sadistic then, because I loved it.

[mjmaskrey]

Well when you grow up and have a pregnant wife you'll probably change your mind.

[Killer 57]

Funny thing is I knew that response was coming, yet I continued.

[Raisedbyflames]

ive playedthedemo overand overand over agian today, and i have too say im 1000% buying this its soo cool its already in my topten games of all time list

[Blaze Lord]

It's hard not to draw some comparisons between Dead Rising and N3. A lot of my friends are definitely buying N3, but I'm thinking that Dead Rising will have a lot more replay value.

[crashlock]

The maps on N3 are proper shi*.. The only next-gen thing about it is the amount of enemies on screen aspect. BOOOO

[vid33nyc1]

The game is a blast to play.Cant wait for it to come out.

[Blaze Lord]

[Fleeboi]

Excellent post Blaze, that's some cool stuff there, I've got to try that zombie bait one, and then get a bowling ball and see how many I knock down. It also answers my previous question about the microwave. (Y)

"- In the full game, you have to place meat in the microwave so that you won't get sick from having raw meat. But since there is no meat in the demo, there's no use for the microwave in the demo."

[linkofhyrule]

Errm.. there is meat in the demo.. I picked up hunks of meat before.

Maybe something different :s

anyway, the shopping cart ROCKS!

[Blaze Lord]

Yeah, he also says "- The hunk of meat attracks [sic] zombies." Still, there's a lot more depth than I thought to this demo, and the game.

[shanemaester]

sure that wasn't chunks of Zombie arm :D

[Raisedbyflames]

on the demo guys go to the cafe upstairs jump over the side and you will find a sword to play with you can cut zombies in half from head to crotch

[phatmuther]

god, thats like, sooooo old dude :D
haha its quality aint it :D
i know where the machine gun is, but i havent been bothered to get it yet, should be good though (Y)

[linkofhyrule]

just read gamespot's review and the game is actually 15-20 hours long without doing many of the side missions and getting all of the achievements, so it's not short at all.

i'm getting more and more convinced every day to buy this game (Y)

[shanemaester]

just got an Erotica PP

turns out some biddy wearing a skirt tried to bite me i quite fluently smackeda golf ball at her head and proceded to take a picture but i was standing the wrong end and it circled her crotch lol! :D

still only got a max PP of 174 for a photo :(

[FUNKY PHIL]

I can wait a month! My wallet would`nt allow it at the moment anyway! :'( :'(

[Fleeboi]

There's already downloadable content for this game! They are all costumes, I don't know how long they've been released for, but they are free, so I downloaded them anyway, so when I get the game it saves me a little time, I think there are around 8 new costumes available, and you get them by going to lockers.

[phatmuther]

they came out on the release date, i downloaded them promptly :D

[Raisedbyflames]

some questions for those whohave thegame now, whats the story like, how many weapons have you found and whats the biggist amount of zombies you have come up against

[phatmuther]

its starting to get harder waiting a month isnt raised :D

[Raisedbyflames]

yes it is but chromehounds has me sorted for now i cancry in theloving arms of chromehounds

[backin-strachan]

Right I have just got a hold of the demo and this game is looking like the big daddy your golf caddy the msn addy the drunk maddy the dog called paddy

:)

The demo alone is my favourite game I have played on the 360. I smacked this fat woman zombie who went sliding into a wall then just ran riot with a trolley. AMAZING this could be so much. AND the two cliff hangers we are left with as well:cool:

[tom91]

i seriously cant wait to play this game, the lawnmower thing looks good lol.
