Dead Rising is one of the best zombie games of its time with a cast of colourful characters, an exciting setting, and a fun narrative. What shines in Dead Rising is the psychopaths littered through the mall. Each psychopath is interesting and offers a change of pace from the usual zombie killing. The weaponry in Dead Rising is also great with multiple tools at your disposal to take care of any zombies in your way. The only bad thing is that the controls are a bit outdated and can feel clunky to play.
