Zombies.
Casino.
Massacre.
FTMFW.

I am SOOOO there. Add some sort of co-op with that many zombies on the screen and I just might soil myself with glee. I don't think this is a fake either, as it's pretty slick and has some original lines from the Frank West voice actor.

Given the social commentary behind George Romero's zombies, having a casino/Vegas type environment as a backdrop for DR2 would be sheer genius on Capcom's part.

Did you see the hamster ball?

I want!

Yup. Zombies + hamster ball =

"Sources close to Capcom" indicate this leaked teaser is the real deal. Let's hope they're right!

I could definitely go for a second helping of Dead Rising.

Dead Rising 2 would be fun.

So the first game is worth a purchase? I heard some aspects of the gameplay, particularly the save system, were kind of annoying.

^ I didn't have many problems.

I would get it. Just realize that it plays a bit more like an old-school game in that you will be repeating the beginning a few times and getting a bit farther each time. The game itself can be beaten in 6 hours from start to finish (not counting the extra mode), so the added time is in replaying.

Also realize that you are on a time limit, so be careful of saving if you are not sure if you can get to your next story adjective in time (or next side-objective if you are trying to do all the objectives before time runs out). It also worth redoing the first day a few times just to level up your character as your levels and skills carry over between games.

Old school games? Nooooo! I like being able to save whenever and wherever I want to.
