The remaster of Dead Rising 2 is about as basic as they come. There’s just one problem: Case Zero isn’t included! Now, all these years later, here I am reliving the Las Vegas undead survival adventure with Capcom’s re-release of Dead Rising 2 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. And by god, it worked! I finally “got it.” I had the right mindset needed to enjoy this series, and that adoration bleed back to the original game, then straight into the sequel. Its standalone prequel, Case Zero, looked condensed enough and as a result low-risk enough that I decided to try it out. End of story.Įxcept, then Dead Rising 2 came along. I’m not sure if it was the infamous prisoner sequence or the time crunch or some other annoyance, but I couldn’t get into the game, so I swore off it for ever. The idea of Dead Rising always seemed great to me, but the actual experience of playing it? Not so much. One that was comfortable enough with itself to be flat-out ridiculous when the situation called for it. I liked the concept, particularly back in 2006, of an open-world zombie game that didn’t take itself too seriously. My dour experience with the original wasn’t exactly out of the ordinary given its rough edges. I didn’t always like the Dead Rising series.
