Dead Rising

[El Leone]

Hmm, what makes it that american gamers> PAL gamers? Pfft.

Got 577 kills

Was the demo just available to PAL Live accounts?

1280x720 looks incredibly washed out through VGA though. It looks fine in other resolutions.

Why does it looked washed out?

US as well, I believe

Well thats that theory blown out of the water then

[Flabio]

Don't see why they'd lock PAL players but not JPN ones o.o

PAL has both Germany and Australia in it, both countries that are likely to have restrictions on sales of this game.

Coincidence?

Possibly the way his screen handles the resolution? There's nothing that coiuld cause it console-end.

Think it's already turned down for release in Germany.

God I hope the PAL one isn't cut down, otherwise an import 360 will be on the cards.

[Concept]

Another reason why it might look washed out to some is because the game uses a filtering effect (in a similar way to Silent Hill), which coupled with the subtle motion blur as you turn the camera, gives the game a slightly gritty feel.

damned, my 360 is just broken and i have to wait to enjoy the demo

is there any indication for what the photograph points are going to be useful? also, what's there besides killing zombies? some adventure touch to it or is it maybe just a pimped up State of Emergency?

[FreelancePolice]

leveling ups quite a big aspect so you get new moves etc. rescueing survivors and discovering the story line are other aspects as well as beating the psycopaths littered around the place.

Even labelling it a pimped up state of emergeny would be doing it a massive, gi-nourmas discredit

Downloaded the demo yesterday and found it brilliant fun!

My favourite moment was chucking the cooking oil on the floor and watching the zombies slip slide all over the place, then when they got up, i fried their faces with a boiling hot frying pan.

Where else could i do that and not get arrested!!!!

I really like the lack of music though, backing my way through an empty shop and then hearing groans behind me, which turned out to be a bunch of mindless zombies walking into the glass window was class.

I know what you mean.. it makes for a great atmosphere.

However, I'm half tempted to purchase the original Romero Dawn Of The Dead soundtrack, rip it to my 360 and and have that blasting in the background as I slice, dice, batter and shoot my way through the hordes of shopping mall zombies!

[GODZOOKI]

VG+ normally test it out on their PAL machine soon as they get stock, so keep an eye on the blog if I were you.

really, whens this game out? Gonna bookmark the site now.

Hey MetalJoe, I gotta agree with Spagmasterswift on this one!!. Youve just made my purchase of this game even more solid!!

If word of this gets out Amazon will be sold out of DOTD Soundtracks come Dead Rising release!!
