The Typing of The Dead: Overkill

The Typing of The Dead: Overkill

To start, I’ll answer the question I don’t see many reviews covering: Yes, this game can help you improve your typing, assuming you know your fundamentals (homerow concept, finger placement, etc.). I don’t see it going over very well if you don’t know the basics, but if you do it can be a pretty effective tool, even if it wasn’t exactly designed for this purpose.

I wasn’t a very good typist when I started. I tested myself online after my first game session and was around 18 wpm with frequent glances at the keyboard. I’ve treated playing the game like lessons, set periods on a schedule. I usually play 3 chapters a weeknight, which equals about an hour to an hour and a half long sessions. I started on the lowest difficulty and worked my way up. As I said, this game isn’t exactly designed as a teaching tool. If you suck at typing, you die a lot. I was dying as much as a dozen times a stage early on. You’ll pretty much have to ignore scoring at this point and just focus on progressing.

Dead Rising 3 Apocalypse Edition

Dead Rising 3 Apocalypse Edition

Aside from the notoriously bad port this game recived upon it’s arival to PC, this game is actually really damn good.

When i bought this game, i knew what i was in for. I had heard about people complaining about this game’s port to the PC, but.. to be honest, it didn’t bother me much. The framerate is locked to 30, which, sure. Is low compared to what a PC like mine normaly preform on games, but I have always been a huge fan of Capcom’s Dead Rising series, owning both the first and second game on console before getting them all on PC when i moved to it half-way through the 3rd gen console era.

Dead Rising 3, the fourth dead rising game (Off the record was it’s own game but a rehash of 2). I’ve played all of them up to this point and to be honest, Dead Rising 3 might be my favorite.

The big thing Dead Rising 3 does is give the player far more power and time than the other games. The time limits are huge now, to the point where you barely have to pay attention to the story, just play the game, do all the side missions you want and then continue the story. It’s a freedom that the first 2/3 games didn’t have, and makes this game a joy to play. On the other hand it takes a 6 hour limit and moves it to closer to 30 for the first playthrough. This is actually a good thing as most people won’t replay these games repeatedly. I know some do, but I’m thrilled at only really needing one playthrough to see everything.

The 80s Never Felt So Good!

(a review copy of this game was provided. Check out my full review on GeektoGeekMedia)

What a fun ride! I want to hurry and finish the review so I can play more! Mayhem in Single Valley is a polished, sharp, fun little adventure game that hits ya like a catchy 80s pop song; you can’t get it out of your head!

Jack Johnson (no relation) is about to fly to the city to attend art school–a wonderful opportunity and chance to escape the dead-end lifestyle of his not-so-well-to-do family. All that remains is a couple of chores and…what’s this? Mysterious shadow entities dumping toxic waste into the town’s water supply? Oh, dear! Well, what’s a helpful/mischievous lad in a red-hooded sweatshirt supposed to do but grab some trashcan lids and fight mutant forest animals!?

Plants vs. Zombies GOTY Edition

Plants vs. Zombies GOTY Edition

Plant vs. Zombies is a cute, addictive and fun game for all ages. I played it a lot of my old school laptop, and it ran completely fine even on that. The game has a lengthy story with various challenges to overcome. There’s many plants, zombies and maps to play around with and the game is very addictive to play. The story is very simple, but fun. Crazy Dave is a quite hillarious character.

This is a tower defense game. Your task is to defend the garden against waves of enemies and upgrade the garden. It starts of easy, but new zombies and plants are added throughout the story and things can get challenging. You will earn coins and other rewards which you use to buy new items from the store and upgrade your Zen Garden.

Dead Rising® 2

Dead Rising® 2

Dad Rising 2 - A Game About Spoiling Your Daughter With Gifts, Crossdressing, and Gambling. (With an optional but forced zombie, and survivor rescue minigame)

Rescuing survivors can be a good deal of fun since it makes your PP go up quicker than when killing zombies and a few give you lots of goodies such as drugs (for ur daughter) and money. However there are some survivors that deserve your wrath, the wrath of zombies, or to get sniped by /pol/. I have a few stories of such survivors, if I wasn’t going for Otis’s outfit I would’ve let them die.

Dead Rising 2 is a classic game imo and is definitely one of my favorites. It’s just so amazing in every way possible. I bought it back in 2010 when it first came out on the 360 and was just so engrossed into it and just really enjoyed the ever-living shit out of it. When Dead Rising 3 was announced it was probably one of the most exciting game reveals I had anticipated just off of how amazing this game was prior to it. Tons of zombies, tons of ways to kill them, great story, great soundtrack, tons of cool characters, fun bosses, co-op, lots of outfits, etc. this game has everything and more.

Dead Rising 2: Off the Record

Dead Rising 2: Off the Record

I’ve spent hundreds of hours playing the Dead Rising series, and there are few games like it. Off the Record really has the most going for it. Dead Rising 2 fixed many issues that Dead Rising 1 had, and OtR polishes DR2 even further. It features all of DR2’s famous weapons, plus the photography mechanic from DR1. Many dismiss photography as unnecessary to DR’s gameplay, and I disagree. It’s a comedic and gory game, and being able to take photos of the mayhem you cause and be rewarded for that turns that into a game mechanic. I can’t count the times I wished I could have taken a photo of something unapologetically silly in vanilla DR2 and in DR3.

THIS GAME HAS MANY REPORTS OF POOR PERFORMANCE AND DUBIOUS CONTROLLER COMPATIBILITY

IF YOU USE MULTIPLE MONITORS YOU WILL NEED 3RD PARTY SOFTWARE FOR THIS GAME TO RUN REASONABLY

I’m running GTX 1080, i7 6700k, 16gb DDR4 ram and on my first run I was getting 5-10 FPS.

Was also unable to use controller. Many have reported similar issues with this game.

After doing research installed “Flawless Widescreen” which has specific plugin for DR2:OTR. This fixed all issues immediately, including controller support. I reccomend that you make sure this program is accessible if you use multiple monitors and otherwise be aware of potential performance issues. Now for the actual review

Zelly’s Discount Reviews

This review is based on the idea you are only considering the game at mass discount, not full price, it isn’t ever gonna be worth full price.

The short version: Game breaking bugs and performance issues really drag this down from being a discount bin hidden gem. Other wise it would be fine as a discount game, for a more detailed break down, keep reading.

The game that ended Dead Rising as a series, is it really as bad as people say? Largely yes, there are fun points however to this game and you could really have a fun time with the game at a large discount if not for massive game breaking bugs that can permanently ruin your save file. As for the game it itself if you get the the season pass there’s several modes you can play through, each with their ups and downs.

Before this review begins I just want to say this is coming from a guy who LOVES the Dead Rising franchise. I played tons of Dead Rising 1 on the Xbox and got it on pc the release date and consider it my favorite game of all time. I also played over 200 hours of Dead Rising 2:OTR without modding it.

I think I have played this game thoroughly enough to write a review for this product (Beating the game once and grinding to level up and collect everything such as blueprints, mysteries etc. etc.) and boy where to begin. Dead Rising 4 is really a unique game. Reaching a ridiculous amount of controversy and complaints. I’ll be the one to say it was a pretty fun game to play…But not in the way it should of. Dead Rising 4 had the potential to be absolutely PHENOMENAL, but Capcom Vancouver shunned out the fans of Dead Rising and handed us a product that was such a disgrace to the series, which led to the result of Dead Rising 4. Every complaint you’ll see about this game is almost completely agreeable, but a lot of it is also a bit too excessive and heated that it just makes CV look like they murdered your dog. So I will make this this review completely fair and civil listing the Pros and Cons of this game.

Zombie Tycoon 2: Brainhov’s Revenge

Zombie Tycoon 2: Brainhov’s Revenge

Zombie Tycoon 2 is a real time strategy (RTS) that has you looking down on your small zombie army to command them against a rival zombie army, all with humans caught in the middle. It is not a zombie management game like the tycoon title would have you believe, you won’t make a money making business of it. It is very easy to pick up and play (especially with a controller). Despite its zombie theme, it feels like it was meant for kids. Its pretty easy and instead of horrific blood and gore, there is a cute cartoony art style along with humorous animated skipable, cut scenes. Its like watching a cartoon with characters that convey so much without saying a word and I’m happy with that.

Greetings Everyone! I’m not stranger to RTS games; they are my favored genre of gaming second only to RPGs and the two change places frequently. I say this so that many will understand where I come from when deciding if I recommend this game. At its heart we have a simple RTS that could find a good home on console or even a tablet, for the PC…well; it is a bit too slow for the average RTS gamer.

Uncontrollable: This game was obviously designed with a controller in mind. I don’t mean this disrespectfully; I feel these games were needed to allow RTS games to slowly transition as a viable genre for the consoles but I feel the entire game is a bit too simplified for a mouse and keyboard. The game seems balanced over the intention you are going to be struggling with the controls and not have access to the precision of a mouse. A small soapbox: I really wish mouse and keyboard options would just become standard options for a console; shouldn’t be more than a software upgrade but I digress!
