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.

The thing about the Dead Rising series is that it's pretty unique. Killing hordes of zombies with a huge variety of improvised weaponry isn't a genre present anywhere else. It's a great game to just mess around in, picking up random clothing, smashing zombie heads in and fighting away psychopaths. It's really got its flaws, but looking beyond those shows a really fun sandbox title to play in. Like what you see?

Dead Rising's PC debut is an addictive open-world adventure that expertly balances its bloody combat with a goofy sense of humor. The Good - Clever and brutal weapon combinations - Focused mission structure keeps you moving - Psychopaths have disturbing backstories and offer challenging fights - Tons of hidden secrets to search for - Striving for completion in cooperative play is fun. The Bad - Long and frequent load times - Controls are not always responsive. In the world of Dead Rising 2, there's an activist organization known as CURE that pushes for the humane treatment of the living impaired.
