Dead Rising 2

Third-person action game where you're Chuck Greene, a father racing against a 72-hour countdown in a zombie-infested city. Your daughter's infected and needs regular doses of Zombrex to stay human, while you're framed for the outbreak and need to prove your innocence before the military arrives. The hook is weapon crafting: duct-tape a rake to a car battery, combine a wheelchair with machine guns, or attach chainsaws to a kayak paddle. Scavenge materials from stores, restaurants, and casinos to build these combo weapons, then wade into crowds of undead. Time pressure is constant—you'll balance story missions, survivor rescues, and supply runs while that clock ticks down. Expect dark humor and over-the-top gore.
