despite not looking like the 360 version, Dead Rising Chop Til you drop is still fun and looks better than the screens and video released

When this game was announced I tried to like it, but then the game just looked like a lazy port. Mainly because of the lack of zombies on screen and the graphics. I decided to give the game a chance and rented it. To my surprise the game was fun and looked way better than the screens and video released. With the exception of a few zombies that looked blurry (Mainly the zombies with weapons).

Not a good way to show a games visuals and gameplay

The controls work well, but the Z+A can get confusing at first. But they dont need to be pressed at the same time to work. You can press and hold Z then press and hold A for to work and not be as confusing. All the other controls work well, especially the shooting. Using melee weapons is also a fun way to kill zombies.

Shooting works well and is fun.

Overall DR:CTYD is enjoyable at a 39.99 price tag or as a rental.

Great game. Many say even better than x360 original.

this game gets a lot crap because it is compared to the 360 one, but it's actually a pretty good game on its own. I recently picked it up for cheap and it is not bad at all. I haven't played the 360 version just DR2 on PS3 which i love. I would recommend the game if you can get it for cheap, the price is still holding up decently well probably because it didn't sell very well. There are a lot less zombies but they do some things to make up for that and the controls are much better in this version, the wiimote aiming is very cool. There isn't a lot of unnecessary waggling like some earlier wii games, shaking off zombies feels great although the thrusting is kinda silly.

@spurgeonryan
I...can't think of anything to say about your post without sounding mean. What the hell are you even talking about? Online? L4D? How can any one get mixed up with L4D and Dead Rising? Seriously.

@primogen18
I see no point in advertising something if it's not good at all.

this game was a horrible port from what ive heard, but it doesn't mean they had to spit it out without telling anyone, it had no advertising or anything.

Can't help but wonder why they didn't just port the original to the PS3. People would have bought that.
