Awesome, but Impractical: Many of the customized weapons can be considered this.

Quite a few in Case West, starting with 'For a guy who's covered wars.'.

The Locksmith achievement dubs Chuck the master of unlocking.

Even when unarmed survivors are mostly competent enough to bull-rush their way through small groups of zombies without any problem.

Artificial Stupidity: Blessedly subverted although only a few civilians need transportation to safety and always over a small, simply laid out area, their path-finding ability is largely improved over the original Dead Rising.

Anti-Frustration Features: Survivors you find along the way will immediately come to you instead of whimpering in fear in a crowd if you press the order button.

Fortunately, both he and his wife are found inside the local bar.

The Alcoholic: Fausto Vargas, who refuses to go anywhere until you give him TWO alcoholic beverages.

Adult Fear: Fail to fix up the bike in time and you get to see Chuck and Katey get separated by the military while desperately calling out to each other.

It's not a literal Zombie Apocalypse, so money's still useful.

Adam Smith Hates Your Guts: Justified.The list of Shout Outs can be found here. In September 2016, both Dead Rising 2 and Off the Record received re-releases on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, alongside the original Dead Rising. In November 2011, IDW began publishing a four-issue Dead Rising comic book series, Road to Fortune, which begins two years after the original game and covers several of the incidents between DR and DR2, including the Vegas outbreak, Katey's infection, and Frank West and Rebecca Chang's first meeting. The game is a What If? Frank West had been in Chuck Greene's shoes, and Frank's simple answer to the question, 'What would you have done differently?' is EVERYTHING. Indeed, the wackiness is Up to Eleven ( Masked Luchador zombies, for example), and even the beloved photos-for-PP mechanic returns. Set after the main game in Phenotrans's facility in Fortune City, Chuck is joined by Frank West (an AI buddy in single-player, and the second player's character in co-op) as they work to clear Chuck's name once and for all.Дead Rising 2: Off the Record was announced at Captivate '11, and Capcom admits that the new game is basically Fanservice (as in Continuity Nods and stuff). Most of them were there to move the plot along.Dead Rising 2: Case West came out in December 2010 on the Xbox Live Arcade. Their interactions with Frank were so brief that I just didnвЂ™t have enough information to form an opinion on them. You can hear more of her backstory in collectible audio files, but I didnвЂ™t find them all.ДЄnd I didnвЂ™t care much for the antagonists or the townвЂ™s citizens. ItвЂ™s a similar situation with Vick, the student who dragged Frank back to Willamette in the first place. Brad, who you meet in the beginning, is absent for most of the game, mostly talking to Frank through a walkie-talkie. The rest of the cast, however, is underwhelming. But, he does have a tangible history with the town, and his constant barrage of sarcastic comments - perhaps a way of coping with the fact that heвЂ™s stuck in his second zombie outbreak - is somewhat endearing. IвЂ™m not sure how many of these optional encounters exist in Willamette, but the handful of battles I found were all over within five minutes.ДЇrank West isnвЂ™t the most well-developed character. And finally, you face the flamboyant leader. First, you hear a few lines of dialogue that show how crazy they are. They more or less followed the same formula. The outlandish Maniacs, human survivors who lost their minds after the outbreak, were also disappointing. The different types of enemies - faster zombies, smarter zombies, and paramilitary soldiers - helped break the monotony, but I was still just mashing buttons to kill them. I was never in any danger, even when zombies cornered or surrounded me.

The forgiving gameplay is fine if you only hop on for an hour or two at a time, but it becomes boring if you play in long chunks (like I mostly did). I only died three or four times, and all of those deaths came from a challenging point toward the end of the game.

Even if you wanted to, you canвЂ™t change the difficulty level.
