Dead Risin yg : X Box 360 Excellent - original idea for a game. The basic concept is that you are a photographer who is dropped off in a zombi living mall. You have 72 hours before the chopper returns to survive by doing whatever it is you please. The best thing about this game is the freedom involved, you can actually play the intended game with a particular sequence of events and story plots involved, or go around killing anything and everything til the chopper arrives or quite literally find somewhere to hide and hope the living dead never find you! I've never come across a game that offers you so much by doing so little - its very ...  Read the complete review

well, its a simple game, either do what the says, or do whatever the hell you want to survive the 72 in the zombie infested mall. Whichever way you choose it is freedom to the max, and you basically just improvise your weapon, and kill every zombie you can in, alomst any way imagineable. It is a very addiciting game and for me it didnt get boring, even after a few months, and if you put it on a harder difficulty it does become a very very good game, not sayin though that it isnt very good on easy modes, because it is. The idea is completely new, and it is very original for a game, so it has to be a credit to microsoft devlopment teams for doing such a good job on ...  Read the complete review

Dead Rising is a classic game on the XBOX 360 that has just spawned a sequel that is currently selling by the bucket-load! This original game borrows much from George.A.Romero's Dawn Of The Dead (and in fact the makers were successfully sued by Romero for stealing his idea!) whilst still managing to establish an original story-line that sees journalist, Frank, being dropped off in a Mall in a bid to be the first reporter to break the story of a flesh-eating zombie outbreak! At first, Frank thinks the town has just gone mad and that civillians are rioting but quickly he learns the truth! Not just that the town has been taken over by the undead but also that the ...  Read the complete review

The first thing to say is this...I AM A ZOMBIE FAN!!! There, I've said it, you all know it now and hopefully will realise that I will be looking at this game from a stand point where by I think zombies are a brilliant sci-fi & Horror concept and great fun!!! I have to say also that this is the first game I have played on my Xbox 360 and indeed I got the console just to play this...albeit somewhat belatedly!!! The game sees you take on the role of Frank West, a freelance photojournalist, as he travels to the town of Willamette, Colorado to investigate a tip off he has had regarding some kind of civil unrest. He is taken to the remote town by ...  Read the complete review
