DEAD RISING HANDS ON [from gaf]

[Griffith]

Going from the security room to the pharmacy was a bash, too. Combat was decidedly simplistic (jump, hit, throw, grapple), but being able to get through the zombie-filled mall and courtyard was rewarding. You can't just blaze your way through, killing each one... No, you've got to be smart, make hits count, jump and dodge. Eventually you'll get to your goal (which sadly wasn't possible in this early build as one of the areas wasn't done) and you can try your hand at getting back.

In short, Dead Rising is one of the most inventive and fun games to come along in a long time. It eschews any sort of linearity for an almost fully open experience that only has one solid objective. As well, it ignores the "Resident Evil" mold Capcom has made, and instead makes a name for itself as a sort of mix of 24 and Shaun of the Dead.

sound very very cool :smile:

Okay, I know I'm going to sound like a complete idiot for asking this, but is that bump-mapped blood?!

I don't know what you means
but the 720p direct-feed video is available on marketplace

the blood is liquid, I suppose they uses some kind of particellar effects, but this is the best blood I've seen in a videogame
if you have a 360, download the video, It's better to see this than talking about this

It is considered very poor form to link directly to images on other servers because it means you're mooching off of their bandwidth. Particulary on forums where many people view a thread it can be a major drain on resources. So don't do it please.
