Dead Rising 2 Screenshots: Weapon Creation

January 27, 2010 8:21 AM

What happens when you cross a double-ended paddle with some chainsaws and toss in some duct tape for good measure? You get your new best friend: The Paddlesaw.

Of course, that's just one possibility. Wheelchair-mounted assault rifles? The pitchfork-shotgun? A motorcycle with chainsaws on the sides? Check, check and check.

Ladies and gentlemen, meet Dead Rising 2. PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360. 2010.

So is this game going to have the whole photography part of the last one still? I always loved trying to get the various picture types with the zombies, like putting them all in goofy hats or in sexual positions. This guy isn't a photographer at all from what I've seen though.

  No, this time he's Macguyver.
  
  I'm rather leery of this weapon customization stuff though. Every time someone tries to tout these amazing possible combinations it usually falls flat beyond a handful of items.

    Exactly what I was thinking. I rather have everything to pick up to throw it or hit with it than having these limited combinations.
    
    Because I doubt this will be really flexible.
