then thats a d@mn good thing! I like the music a lot. never heard of the group till DR2 CZ. i listened to more tracks today and wow i have to say i really like the vibe. well particularly the album that song is on actually. I heard most of the songs from there and they give me that dark yet cool 9 inch nails 90s vibe. thats my taste.

anyway good looks on the music info Atice. ill add this to music stash now

Did anybody else enjoy those mellow tracks that would play while you're in the mall? The ones that sounded almost like elevator music.

I read that in Case Zero, if you have the game set to the pause screen for quite a while, the mall music from DR1 will start playing.

Edit: ring ring... ring ring... Having midnight release? -Yes we are...- SWEET! ..

Edit2: *calls up all friends* Wanna go? NO! f**k!!!? I'll remember that man... >.<

So now I have to wait till tomorrow........................................... =-(

[DEMONKAI]

If you were in NY you couda definitely got that copy from Chinatown at Canal street

But the game is hella cool. Tough in certain ways. I gotta keep playin to memorize certain areas. Its easy to slip up and go the wrong way and waste time. When i first started i almost failed a Case deadline (at the safe house) cuz i didnt know how the hell to get back. I found 4 people at the and that freakin game is HUUUUGE! ...man it gets real hairy and funky ( well yeh the zombies but..) when night fall hits and the zombies get agressive so its a struggle to stay alive and remember where the hell the safe house is at. The map is there but its not like its GTA when u can set a way point back. In other words if the safe house isnt the mission case or the objective the arrow wont set on it of course. Youll have to remember and be on point. Cuz at times you may just wanna get rid of the survivors you met and then go on a mission case just in case its too serious and they can die or get left. Cuz when i took two survivors with me i happend to go into a cut scene into a major chase scene and left them behind . And of course they were in danger cuz i saw their energy slowly decreasing. so i had to re load the save and find how to get back and drop them off first...

Eh its a lotta sh*t going on in that game. its fun but chaotic. too many things going on plus you have to remember to get that cash up for the zombrex (mainly for your daughter) which is 25 Gs and hell no gettin that Re up aint easy and quick. Its givin free at special moments but thats not a lot. maybe theres a book you can carry for the cash to boost up higher when you find money but D@mn its tuff  . 

Anyway im pretty far now dealin with gunmen now..
Good thing is thank god the survivors are hella smart now unlike DR1 . I have a "Leadership" book so i think that made it even better to escort people ...

[Violent Ken Masters]

I just picked up my copy and man it was so embarrassing... You see... I preordered it last month, canceled it, and then put another preorder on it.... turns out the second time I preordered it, gamestop got my name wrong... so I stormed out saying "I'M NEVER SHOPPING HERE AGAIN BECAUSE THIS IS JUST TOO CONFUSING"... Then I checked my glove compartment for receipts and it proved me right.   I almost screwed myself out of $50 trade-in credit I had on that preorder... Thank God for receipts.

I have the collectors edition... wow this stuff is so convincing. . Like the pen syringe has a box which gives you information on zombrex... then there's a brochure for zombrex... Capcom really went out of their way with this collection

Lazy mail person didn't deliver it. (she delivers too early)

damn that sucks  


But yeh as for my experience with DR2 its a great game for the content n stuff, story and the love of zombies But! theres still one stupid factor i wish capcom would have stepped it up in. Ok A huge @ss playing field like that, hella items and always saving people youd think at the safe house there would be some kind of Storage area to save your items. Come on all those scattered books you find and im sure you dont wana just drop em down and leave it behind. so much confusion be going on you dont remember where you got half the items from. OR for that matter where you left it. So i thought it would have been great if Capcom let you store stuff like the resident evil games. It woulda made sense. i dunno if they did that on purpose to make the game even tougher than what it should be but they coulda at least did that. Most weapons i get or find i dont wanna go through all the trouble finding or creating again. Just like fallout 3. I would like to be able to go back to the safe house before a huge mission. load up nice n porper from my collected selection and then roll out.

Other than that the game is great. One friend of mine said it wasnt worth the buy and i told em in small defense, "I wouldnt go that far in saying that cuz the game is great you just havent played the first or is into zombie games. hell you didnt even like left 4 dead series ".

A nice little storage chest in the safe room would be great. I was playing co-op with a friend, and I realized that this game would be perfect with a 4-6 player free roam mode where you and your friends can freely run around and kill zombies and psychopaths without a time limit.

Also, how many combos have you guys made so far? My favorites are the Defiler, Driller, Super Slicer, Freezer Bomb, Ripper and Plate Launcher.

[DEMONKAI]

I didnt play on co op yet. been focused on gettin all the cases and leveling up. Im in the 20s now those. made a few weapons but not a lot. but i do got a lot of the combo abilities

[ATiC3]

Yea, I've been playing it since I got it yesterday! Like.. ALL FREAKIN DAY! haha!

It's hella fun! and I love the random psychos... they're hilariously stupid!

I really thank God that I preordered DR2 because of the ninja costume.. those zombies can't even see me 99% of the time...

because I'm a

 
 

[DEMONKAI]

creepin on em huh?

That definitely should work against those super 28 weeks later zombies now. Dunno if you used that on them?

[ATiC3]

indeed I am. I come out of nowhere and attack some of them too.. Maybe I'll record my second playthrough as a ninja.. I like to sneak around corners and then jump out yelling BOOOONNNZAAIIII!!!!!

[SanjiSasuke]

First thing I did in the Mall...got some glasses. Wesker Style!

[Violent Ken Masters]

Yeah. I just started wearing the ninja outfit and I'm walking right in front of them and its like as if I'm invisible. . Its so weird cuz normally I have armies of zombies attacking me. So.... has anybody tried combining a flashlight with gems yet? 

[DEMONKAI]

Took a hot break from Trying to end Dead Rising 2. im at the last part & at level 30. the last annoyance is a pain and the situation is pretty damn hairy in the battle. Great game but jeezus the super zombies are Relentless

man i have so many combo packs i only tried 2. the rest ill experiment with after i end it though

[SanjiSasuke]

The nail bomb (IED) is a great crowd killer.

[ATiC3]

heh.. yea I remember that one from Case Zero.. pretty cool.

Has anyone beaten Antoine the chef yet? This guy's driving me crazy!

[Violent Ken Masters]

Yeah, the bosses in the game are relentless although I killed the chef on my first try. I only had like one health block remaining from that scrap.    The chef is nothing compared to the final boss and the psycho army guy. I had to retry the army guy so many times... It was so unbearable. The super zombies were my worst enemy though, they kept running at me as if I was a magnet.

I didn't even get to level 30... I ended it on level 26. I got ending A.
