Dead Rising 2: Off the Record

I can understand people liking this game but not me. The controls are terrible, shooting is just bad, i hate the time limitation that has going for it, graphics are not great. Not a big fan !

I only bought the game because it had Frank West

I'm not disappointed at all. 10/10

fix the controller issue capcom. what the fuck

I'm not gonna sugarcoat it
Shift + Space + M1

Great if you want to mindlessly kill zombies.

Ballsack PC port. controller support nope, use community layouts and steam input, and you can atleast you use it. It’s not much more than a remix , I recommend it as a way to replay dead rising 2 when you get the urge. I liked it because it has coop, and that’s fun because your friend is fun. They can be chuck, and then you can do funny things.

Now don't get me wrong, i'm not giving a negative review because this is a bad game, it isn't. I'm giving a negative review on this game because holy shit this is a bad PC port of a beloved classic from the Xbox 360 era.

I ran into slowdown, stuttering, and graphical issues (even though I have a powerful enough computer to run the Resident evil 4 remake comfortably), and that's just in singleplayer. When I played online with my friend, things got even worse.

Controller support is terrible (The game only recognizes wired Xbox 360 controllers, if you try to use anything else without a mod it will not work), the game had a tendency to kick the 2nd player out whenever the host reloaded the game, the game crashed at certain points, we had a loading bug where we couldn't load beyond 7-4 (Which we were able to thankfully fix that via lowering the FPS), and worse of all, there was a glitch that wouldn't give us our objectives sometimes, meaning we'd miss out on some of the side quests and other stuff on offer, its unbelievable that this stuff can even happen!

If you still want to try this game out, i'd get the original version on console, try this port at your own risk! (Unless you know how to mod or just don't really care about those issues)

i dont need to say anything get this game

Can you please fix the bug where the game freezes when you bring up the pause menu sometimes other than I'm having fun with this game so far.

No controller support.

Really good For Nostalgia i had to say, the zombie jumpscares always gets me when i was a kid and now as a adult,
the Slappy Mission Still Gets me after defeating him as a child in the first dead rising 2 but i aint rekilling him again after seeing him in my nightmares every time i sleep
100/100 good story telling,cant wait to play the remake these new fanbases of this game franchise are missing out of peak
who cares about bugs and no controller support like every zombie game has no controller support except left 4 dead.
cant wait for dead rising 6 if it either comes out next year or when i have kids if i do get a gf by then
also for controller support download ds4
here's a video for ds4 controller support thingy

this was my first zombie franchise before resident evil & left 4 dead before they both existed

Poor Chuck...

if your pc is terrible, dont get it lol. it's pretty fun tho.

best dead rising game ever

Amazing.

Dead Rising is love Dead Rising is life

No controller support in 2025. Having to download two separate programs isn't controller support.

I cannot believe I never decided to play this game when it released all those years ago. Granted, I was still in my Call of Duty on console phase when this masterpiece released, and I was too young and stupid to look away from the constant mediocre console shooter. Buyer beware, DR2 & DR2: Off the Record are NOT the same game!

I played this game mainly with a friend, which was a ton of fun honestly. One of the best things to do is run around the mall and make our characters as stupid as possible with all the available options. Fighting bosses while Chuck is dressed like a country hooker has got to be the best experience. For a mall, the shops, characters, and casinos you mess around with are so colorful that you don't feel like you're walking in the same hallway through the whole game. The place is full of landmarks that you can figure out where you're going without a map if you pay attention enough!

Crafting weapons is very intuitive, but since it was my first game I ended up looking up which weapons can create fun things, which is fine by me. The dismemberment and zombie AI isn't as good as a game like Left 4 Dead 2, but at the same time it doesn't need to be; rather than killing zombies all the time, your best bet is to simply carve out a path to travel from one objective to another, since they are TIME BASED. My buddy and I forgot about that, and roughly 15% into the main story, we ended up restarting because not only did we fuck up, but our last checkpoint was also right before we fucked up! While frustrating, we knew what we were getting into. Definitely not as frustrating as Yakuza 0 or Kiwami, where the telephone booths are your ONLY way of saving. You do save in a bathroom in these games, so Frank and Chuck must have their tummies brappin' like a Mazda Quad-Rotor engine.

Overall, great time with a friend, I cannot recommend this enough.

I sure wish they would fix their game

DR2:OTR is a game best enjoyed after playing DR1 and DR2. With the inclusion of the Uranus zone and the ability to bring Chuck and Frank together, this is a great alternate universe depiction of one of the best Dead Rising games. I highly recommend heading to the DR2 OTR nexus to get a mod patch to fix some of the technological shortcomings this game has, but if you're able to overlook some of the crust you are in for a great time.

This game is all about exploration, the worst thing you can do is look up a guide and tell you what to do and where to go.

It's like going shopping with your bestie.

man broken coop halfway through the game, save file is just corrupted

best dead rising game....

DR2 but if Chuck Greene had an accountant hairline and took photos of wars or something. 10/10.

we got bombed

My polish bud stopped me from gambling my life savings away
10/10

for a discount its great

This Game Is One Of My Favourite Games

Works great on the steam no issues at all . Turn off wifi for the first start

awesome game, if going to buy beware that it is pratically a REMIX of the original, so its not gonna be 100 percent new content, has alot of quality of life features tho

his name frank WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSST

Awesome game, but out of the box Controllers wont work unless you config it yourself with a guide. This has been an Issue for a while.

Crashed every 15 minutes and asked for refund

why did they give frank such a ginormous ass in this game i'd love to play it but my huge boner gets in the way of my controller from staring at frank's massive dumpy especially with that one piece bathing suit equipped capcom tried to make him older and out of shape but they only made him hotter thanks alot capcom you turend me gay for a man twice my age

peak

pros: awesome game, new combo weapons, very fun with 2 players
cons: cant sex the frank :(

Man, that guy was a few screws short of a workbench.....

Same game as the original, but you've covered wars, you know...

fun

Controller support is broken and in true Capcom fashion, they don't seem to care since this game is not making them billions of dollars.

DLC is broken and either can't be downloaded or won't show up in-game. Don't waste your money.

my mustache fell off

This game was released 13 years ago and still does not have controller support despite saying it has "partial" support on the store listing.

What the hell, Capcom?

Phenotrans Stacey Got Me Acting Unwise

It fucking crashes every 5 fucking minutes and you have to install this bullshit controller program to even play the game with a controller,

dead rising 2 if it was bad

I like the hit video game dead rising off the record where you get to play as frank west

DR2, but with Frank West. More content can also be found, such as some interesting changes in the main story, the new Uranus Zone, and some new Combo Weapons. The new voice acted messages are quite nice, and Frank is a lot more talkative than Chuck during the gameplay, which can be funny at times.
I love the fact that they changed the ending plot twist and final boss. It really surprised me.
