A cracked version is now out there, works very well indeed but you can't save at the moment. Something to do with Games For Windows zero day piracy policy not letting you to play games before they're launched.

Its released properly in two days so at least we don't have to wait long unless there is a work around.

Was concerned about this version as I've read reviews for the PS3 one that said that it had some bugs here and there relating to slowdown but so far I've not seen anything on the PC version.

Proper crack allowing saves is up today.
No windows live though of course, not till the actual release I assume. (which sucks if the game has achievements ;-; gotta redo stuff to get the ones I miss from playing early)

Incredibly fun game, and a lot harder then Dead Rising 1 so far.
So many god damn useless stores >_>
CLOTHES?
DIAMONDS?
SKATEBOOOOAARDS!?
I need me some freakin' weapons! Survivors are kind of retarded still though, unless you send them to a waypoint...then they're pretty genius and just run past zombies.
But zombies horde the shit out of you if you have a survivor.

Takes forever to get some free time too. I always felt so tied to deadlines until I was done the 2-# set of cases.

I didn't realize this was coming for the PC, did the first 1 got a PC release ?
*starts downloading*

Does the game require the mouse wheel ?
since mine just broke and I can only click it

I doubt it does. Though I really can't imagine playing the game without a gamepad, lol.

First wasn't for PC, it wasn't for PS3 either. The game stopped being exclusive. Which is awesome because I couldn't afford to buy it for 360 like I had wanted.

I'm finding the game to be really dull, it does fix a lot that was wrong with the first game but at the same time I'm just finding myself feeling a sense of "been there done that".

Thought exactly the same while playing it on 360, but I also had the feeling that the long loading times were really killing the game for me. I hope they'll be a LOT shorter on PC.

The game works fine although a little slow when the screen is filled with zombies.

I never played the first since I don't have a 360/Wii, the game is fun and loading time are less than 5 secs. (although its a little annoying).

The PC version is "Oh, so much better" compared to the 360 version. The loading times are finally bearable.

Too bad the blur effect seems to pop-up every now and then in cinematics for no reason whatsoever. I don't remember seeing that in the 360 version.

Also, I'm playing on 1680x1050, and almost all the menus look like crap. Have they developed the game with 1024x768 in mind or what?

1920*1080 here, everything is perfect ^^
Strange, maybe they don't support 16:10 resolutions well, then

EDIT: I've tried 16:9 resolutions too, and the menus backgrounds still look like crap. It cannot be my videocard, as it's a GTX260

I mean, when you're editing options, there're bloodstains on the menu background. Those are jagged and look like crap, on my PC.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
