Dead Rising

I used to love this game, but found it got really boring fast. Love the car and motorbike though :D
 
I have this game I should really give it a proper go. It pisses me off as it doesn't autosave stuff.
 
using the large pneumatic drill on them is pretty satisfying

i got pissed off with this game because i couldnt kill the fecker in the gun shop
 
So far whenever I've saved it then later died/quit, it takes me back to when I'm in the helicopter on my way to the mall. What's going on here? I put 4 hours into it the other day and had to start again basically, but I had all my stats.
