The editors didn't like
The setting is boring
The altered gameplay mechanics make the game worse
Facets of the campaign are locked within the substandard.
The same basic game as Case Zero and Dead Rising 2
Abstract: Unless you completed that game with an S rating, Case West picks up the story immediately after. Chuck (spoiler for DR2 alert! Look away now!) still hasn’t cleared his name, but he’s out of Emerald City and in cahoots with the original game's star, Fra...
Abstract: I was a huge fan of Case Zero leading up to the release of Dead Rising 2. Dead Rising 2 itself started out well enough, but the more I played it, the more the poor design and utter disappointment became undeniable. I actually quit playing after unlock...
Abstract: I was a pretty big fan of what Capcom did with Dead Rising: Case Zero, as was evident by the review I did for the game on its release. I'm not quite as big a fan of this release though, as Case West rocketed on to XBLA last week, and I think it's a bit...

The same basic game as Case Zero and Dead Rising 2, No integration with previous games, Photography has little gameplay impact.
A lack of core changes means this loses some of Dead Rising's novel excitement, but there is still plenty of zombie-smashing fun to be had in this downloadable offering....
Dead Rising 2: Case West is great. It runs well, bends what you'd expect from a Dead Rising game, and offers a fun co-op experience for you and a pal. Sure, there are slow spots and if you had a problem with Dead Rising's time-based quests or general m...
Abstract: Dead Rising 2: Case West is a stand-alone epilogue for Dead Rising 2 that bridges the characters and events of the original game. That's a thumbnail description. In reality it's a high-fiving action buddy flick where the viewer waits for th...
Abstract: Note: Case West takes place shortly after Dead Rising 2 and directly ties into its story (so this review has unavoidable spoilers), but is a separate game and does not require users to have Dead Rising 2 handy in order to play. Additionally, there is n...
