Yep, killing zombies is a grisly business. And that's before you start mixing nails, chainsaws, propane tanks, oars, baseball bats, boxing gloves and numerous sharp or heavy implements together. Take a drill and a bucket to your maintenance room, and it's not long before you've concocted a new, lethal form of zombie headgear. With a sledgehammer, a fire axe or a golf club it's all a bit obvious, but what happens when the rotor blades of a toy helicopter meet zombie flesh, or you push a lawnmower through the shuffling hordes? How about the ornamental spear? The handbag? The gumball machine? The enormous stuffed rabbit? And that's before we get to the sequel's major new idea - combo weapons. Just about anything and everything you can find in the casinos, bars, restaurants, parks and shopping malls of Fortune City can be picked up and smacked repeatedly into zombie heads.įrankly, it's all a bit sick and juvenile, and the chief pleasure of the game, like it or not, is trying out different items to see what kind of damage they do. You might find the odd handgun, shotgun or assault rifle, but with tiny quantities of ammo you're better off relying on melee weapons and - as also in the first Dead Rising - that means getting creative.
As in the first Dead Rising, they're a slow moving, comically inept bunch of brain-munchers, but they're out in huge numbers and just about everywhere. Sadly, Zombrex is in short supply, so if Chuck wants to save his daughter and prove he's not the man to blame, then there's only one solution: to go out into the zombie-packed chaos of Fortune City, find the necessary drugs and follow the trail that will lead him to the truth.Īnd that means killing an awful lot of zombies. For another, Katie has been bitten and infected, and if she doesn't get a drug called Zombrex every 24 hours, then Chuck's going to be faced with a zombie daughter. It's bad enough that zombies over-run the show and, shortly the city, but it's not long before Chuck has other things on his mind.įor one thing, he's framed for the outbreak, giving him 72 hours to clear his name before the army arrives and he loses his chance. In an America still reeling from the zombie apocalypse detailed in the first Dead Rising, this one-time motorcross champ has come with his young daughter, Katie, to the casino resort of Fortune City, to take part in a grisly reality game show for cash.
(Pocket-lint) - For Chuck Greene, it's going to be a rough 3 days.
