Well, it was announced a few days ago that Dead Rising 2 was coming and it was going to be multiplatform. Then someone dropped a video (omg like, it's right there^) and the whole ordeal pretty much caused me to ejactulate in my pants.

I'm excited about Dead Rising 2 because the original Dead Rising was a great game. It's a game about zombies that doesn't take itself too seriously and overall plays and looks very good. It's probably one of the first games to feature a shitload of zombies on the screen at the same time. I reviewed this game a little more in depth in a previous post.
If you watch the movie. You can obviously surmise that it will take place in some sort of Las Vegas/Casino type setting. I supposed it's better than putting it in a mall again, considering Capcom got sued because the original game apparently rips off Dawn of the Dead. Apparently the premise 'zombies, in a mall' can be patented if you are Jew enough.
Probably the two best parts of the whole movie is when it shits out and starts flashing screens of a Casino and pictures of zombies and then it goes to a brief clip of someone rolling over zombies in an American Gladiators-esque caged-hamster ball thing. A quick Wikipedia search tells me that they were called 'Atlaspheres' on American Gladiators. You think I would be able to make an American Gladiators reference without bringing up Crush. Well you thought wrong. I would let her run over my zombies in her atlasphere if you know what I mean.
What the fuck was I talking about. Oh yeah, the inclusion of a hamster ball probably will result in more new ways to kill zombies, and hopefully new and exciting weapons. Maybe more than 5 guns (handgun, shotgun, sub-machine gun, sniper rifle, army machine gun). There were actually a lot of different weapons in the first DR, and I can't really think of any 'Vegas' specific items that could be added to make a significant difference, other than dildos.
Also, I guess they're going to bring back the Mega Man gear, which leads me to the 2nd best part of the video. They show a guy (IT BETTER BE FRANK) in Mega Man armor. I think they should bring in more Capcom related gear or references (Street Fighter, Devil May Cry, Phoenix Wright, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, more Megaman plz) I think a Resident Evil r
eference would create some sort of fucking time paradox, and I think they already referenced Ghosts N Goblins with the boxer shorts, or at least I think they did.
There was never really anything wrong with the original Dead Rising. EXCEPT the survivors AI. Seriously, what the fuck. It seems like it was the last part of the game they worked on and they didn't even worked on it. They just used the fucking recieving routes from Madden Football '98 from the Genesis as the basis for escorting the survivors.
Have you ever tried escorting more than two survivors without using the Real Mega Buster? No, because you already know what will happen. They'll die. Hell, even if you are using the Real Mega Buster, a suvivor will run out in your line of fire and get shot.
So, all I ask of Capcom, is to have a better saving/continuing system, and to make the survivors not retarded the 2nd time around. You were able to do a decent job when we escorted Ashley in RE4. They should be able to STAY CLOSE TO ME AT ALL TIMES AND KEEP THEIR ARMS AND LEGS INSIDE THE FUCKING VEHICLE. Also, they should probably get rid of the time limit mode, or at least make an mode where you can just play and play and play without having to eat food like that last game's bullshit infinity mode.
If this trailer turns out to be fake then I'll be pretty mad. The game will probably be just as good as I'm making it out to be or at least better. And if not we have RE5 and SF4 and more abbreviations with numbers on the end of them. This wasn't the first time I've over-reacted to a leak before. The original 'leaked Guitar Hero World Tour set list was epic 'Bleed It Out, Face Down, The Good Left Undone? HOLY SHIT" and then hardly any of those songs were in it. SO I'M READY FOR DISAPPOINTMENT. I TYPE IN CAPS TO PLACE EMPHASIS ON THINGS.
Wow, after making all those references to Capcom games. I just realized that they're like, a fucking amazing company. They even made the Chip N Dale and Ducktales games for NES. Holy shit. The Moon stage music from Ducktales is now playing in your head. OH MY GOD I'M FUCKING BOUNCING ON MY CANE JESUS CHRIST

So it figures that after I spend an hour fine-tuning and checking everything on this post, Capcom goes and dumps some screens on some random website. The only thing that makes me sad is that the new character is not Frank West ;_; Here's my favorite screen and you can check the link for more.
