Yet everything in Dead Rising 2, from baseball bat to paddlesaw, degrades with use. Tools range from practical to absurd, and through the new weapon combo system, Chuck can craft some devilishly creative implements of destruction, capable of mowing down a herd of zombies stylishly and easily. One of the main tenets of the Dead Rising series is the player’s ability to use just about anything in the environment as a weapon. And that’s what makes it such a worthy experience. It’s the total antithesis of everything we’ve come to expect from modern games. From top to bottom, everything about the experience is temporary and ultimately fragile. I’m actually in love with the game, even when it makes me work so very, very hard for that love. If there was a video game equivalent to the School of Hard Knocks, Dead Rising 2 protagonist Chuck Greene would be sitting in the front row.Īs a champion of accessibility in games, I should hate Dead Rising 2.
By staying on the other side of the propane tank, Frank can jump behind the counter without getting body slammed.And the save system, possibly the worst culprit of all, totally disregards modern concepts like checkpoints and continues, giving ample opportunities to totally ruin current game progress. Alternatively the propane tank can be used as a barricade like the store display. Carry one of the green propane tanks into the shop and throw it behind Cletus' counter, then shot it. Many of the zombies in the North Plaza are pushing the green propane tanks. Take cover again and repeat the process each time Cletus reloads. Grab a store display as Cletus reloads and drop it next to the one near the counter. Quickly hop the counter and grab a sniper rifle. If health is needed when Cletus reloads, hop the counter and grab some wine. Duck back behind a Store Display as soon as Frank shots two or three times. It is best to stand behind a Store Display for moderate cover and wait. There's no perfect place to hide from Cletus's shots. In Chop Till You Drop, completing The Gun Shop scoop with an S rank and saving Cletus will allow Frank to take on the scoop Gun Shop Standoff. Instead he will agree to sell you guns, ammo, upgrades, and books, that is if you choose to save him. In Chop Till You Drop, Cletus does not have to die. James flies out of the store and Frank is left alone to battle Cletus.Īfter Cletus is tired out from the gunfight, he stumbles out of the store into an undead James and is killed, leaving the gun shop empty and available for Frank to take weapons.
Going against Cletus' warnings, he advances towards him and is killed with a buckshot to the chest as a result. James claims that he just wants some guns so he can survive. The owner refuses to let the two men come any closer and shoots his shotgun as a warning. Frank arrives to the Huntin' Shack to find a fellow survivor trying to reason with the gun shop owner.
