Dead Rising was the sole reason I bought a 360 and I was really gutted with the sequel.
This sounds good but it wasn't Chuck Green's fault I disliked DR2, although having to save his kid every 24 hours was fucking annoying.

Dead Rising 2, while improved in every regard over the original, just didn't feel as fresh or rewarding. The game seemed more directed at just fixing complaints and not adding a damn other thing.
This "expansion" isn't doing anything else over 2, other than giving players Frank West. I'm not sold on it, even with cool incentives like this.

I'm down with the 40 dollar price.
Though I agree with the complaints about DR2.
It really was just more of the same. Was actually sad by that because DR1 is probably one of my favorite games ever. I put so much time in it, it was so unique and was one of the first games to use achievements in a awesome way.

I have to question if you've played the first Dead Rising if you found injecting Chuck's daughter every 24 hours annoying....especially since Otis exists and was far worse than a once a day trip. Otis was a fucking task master.

looks like the costume from the movie Murder Party. 1,000,000 xp points to anyone who has seen it. if you haven't, you should. its good.
I feel an overwhelming need to crap in every Dead Rising-related thread simply to say: I really dislike this series. I quit the first game in frustration and boredom after two hours...and did the exact same thing with the second game. I envy those who enjoy it, because normally this kind of thing is right up my alley.
Loved the first game (seem to be in the minority), but I still haven't had the chance to play the sequel. Thinking I might skip it and pick up Off the Record instead...
There should be bonuses for Dead Rising saves too, since the first change had the same main character. I loved the first game, particularly the "true ending" segment. I wish there was something as rewarding in DR2, but I haven't even come close to rescuing all the survivors across my playthroughs. Each time I play DR2, it feels like a different game - which is pretty awesome.
I would like to see a DR game without the humor, though. A horror game with limited ammo, the ability to use anything as a weapon (even if it slows you down), and TONS of zombies is what survival horror really needs.

Nothing wrong with a "new" Dead Rising game, and it's cheaper, too.
As a big fan of the previous two games, I'm pumped for this.

The sequel is very much worth it if you liked the first one. It's basically the same, but with a few more features.

Oh, I'm sure I'll love it! It's just a matter of finishing my backlog and being able to afford it, which is why I might just pick up this one instead.
TL;DR - Can't buy both :)

If Capcom treats this game like they did DR2, then that preorder pack will be available to buy for the rest of us after a month. I think I can hold off until the game drops a bit in price and grab it then.

Hey man, Otis was annoying but at least you could ignore him!
As soon as you avoided helping your daughter in the sequel there was no chance of getting anything other than a depressing ending.
Looking at the comments I guess a lot of people are right, by the time the second one came round the novelty had lost something. To be honest after the first one all I wanted from the sequel was the same again but without three criminals in a jeep and on screen text that I could read on my old tv without my eyes bleeding.

Wish it was $30 but I won't be too picky with this one, given what we've heard it still sounds like a steal at $40.
I love Dead Rising but they really need to work on the way the psychopath fights work. They just aren't satisfying to fight. I found myself just bringing along half a dozen survivors with machine guns everywhere just to save me the hassle.
I love the Dead Rising franchise so I'll definitely be buying this. Seems well worth the 40$ asking price.
And Dead Rising 2 was better then the first in almost every way. Very similar but it got rid of a lot of the smaller frustations and the weapon crafting system was pretty cool.

Dead Rising is one of those games I can always pop in and have fun with for a half hour. I'm cool with paying $40 for this.
As long as they stop the "covered wars" joke, that shit is as played out as "the cake as a lie".

He's covered wars, ya kn.......never mind.
I got to see the new amusement park area firsthand in OTR, and it's a decent size with a couple of rides to have fun with. Got to try two new combo weapons, a sawblade launcher and an electrified sledgehammer. If you loved the previous games and just want to continue the fun, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
