Alright first question not regarding your God Given Gift being delivered to early. 
 
Does Katey actually look like she's three years older from Case Zero? As a matter fact you should keep an eye out for a quote because it still seems pretty weird that Case Zero is based so far before, despite it all looking like days.

Also serious question, how does it play? 
 
How many days do you have in this game...and does it force you to save impossible people like DR1 in the damn intro?

I've seen the intro and I'd say it's impossible to save any of the people. Lots of 'survivors' die during the initial outbreak almost instantly. I like the emergency feeling of "oh crap, everyone's dying!". You can just run past them.

Plot isn't that bad this time around. I mean, it has characters that aren't Otis. :p

I made that choice as well. I still downloaded the Civ 5 demo today and it's fun. Still, I have to wait until next week to play Dead Rising 2 and I could be playing Civ 5 this week. Hopefully I made the right choice getting DR2 on PC.

Since your saving money. Care to donate to me so I can get a 360? lol
 
 
As for what system I will get DR2 on chances are I might get it for 360 once I can get a 360. But first I wanna play case zero.

@KaosAngel:  No, you can't save anyone in the entrance plaza at the begining of DR. I've seen a video (at least I think I've seen one, but I can't find it now) of someone doing the lift up on a survivor and carrying him (her? Him, I think) up the stairs to the cut scene trigger. When the cut scene starts BOOM no survivor.

It's still the same, LOADING cutscene LOADING gameplay LOADING cutscene.
 
Also the PS3 shitty effect on ports is noticeable since there is a lot of screen tear and framerate drops, not THAT bad but if you have the choice definitely pick up the 360 version.
 
Edit: i take that sorta of back, there are a lot of zombies on screen and PS3 suprisingly manged to keep the same framerate as CZ, dunno why the FPS and screen tear occured in the room i was in earlier but right now it's pretty smooth when there are hundreds of zombies on screen with the FPS at 25+.

It gets longer later on. I'm on episode 32 and have seen so much loading. Hoping the PC version will take advantage of the hardware... and not suck.

Survivors Ai is pretty good even in large crowds of zombies, the Ai even protected me! i can't believe that Capcom fixed their shit! :D ofc i still haven't escorted large groups of survivors but still so far this is FAR better than DR1's dreaded AI.

Friendly fire from survivors don't effect you, so you can give them a shotgun without getting your head blown off.

Exactly, getting all the survivors in your first run is far more possible than in DR1.
 
I wonder what happens if two chucks started shouting to lead them? im very interested about that.

Is it odd that I'm surprised that everyone is so excited for DR2? I haven't played Case Zero, so maybe I'm not one to talk really, but I did go back to DR1 and got another 300ish gamerscore in it, and I think I'm ok for a while.  
 
Should I try Case Zero anyways? Please someone tell me that the survivors aren't all complete idiots like they were in DR1, just a minimal improvement is all I'm looking for. I don't want to have to run back to a girl and literally hold her hand because she wants to push every zombie to the ground, only to have it get back up again.  
 
Note: I understand carrying the occasional survivor due to injury, but I still don't like it. And Capcom doesn't either, notice how many trailers show off the escort missions in DR2, none of them that I have seen. They all brag about killing zombies. And that is all I want really.
