Dead Rising 2

[Polarbert]

I'd like to consider myself as an above average gamer, I can usually get st done in most games, but for some reason this game eludes me.

I have been doing the main storyline no problem. I think I'm up to the third day now. The big problem is all the side missions. I just don't seem to have the ability to kill the guys. I tried four times to kill one psychopath in the toilet and couldn't do him. Then I think I must have tried a dozen times to take out the crazed overweight chef. And then I moved on to the guy in the chapel o love and just couldn't kill him.

Is there a difficulty setting I've missed?

I probably wouldn't mind as much, but every failed attempt warrants startikg back in the office and then running all the way back to the guy. I've had modded weapons and shotguns and nothing seems to do the job.

I've watched videos and can't seem to replicate them.

I know its an old game, but it can be a lot of fun. The mini games in multiplayer aare amazing.

You aren't doing anything wrong, the bosses are just super tough!

I have beat a few on co-op, trick is lots of health and stay the hell away from the attacks!

Yeah. Its my reason for not carrying on with the game. I really like it, and its good it was free for gold members. I think I'd rather just randomly kill the zombies to pass the time until time comes around for the main storyline mission.

I wouldn't even mind that much, but the stupid fking respawn system is so fked. You can't simply retry at the boss, you have to walk all the back to it from the base.
