| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) | comment |
A spin-off game from the popular Dead Rising franchise, Off The Record is a retelling of the second game but instead of Chuck Greene, Frank West returns as the main protagonist. Having broken the Willamette story, Frank has become a national celebrity, winning awards and even having his own TV show. However fame gets to his head and he eventually falls on hard times. Worse still, he is now dependent on daily doses of the expensive drug Zombrex to stave off the infection, and with funds running low, he decides to participate in the controversial game show Terror Is Reality. What was supposed to be a simple job quickly goes south as an unexpected outbreak happens and Frank is caught in the middle of it...Again.Off the Record was made as a "What If??" scenario to the second game, asking what would Frank do in Chuck's position and what would have changed. While the broad story points remain relatively the same, a few fine details change that completely alters the story in the end. Off the Record also brings back the beloved Photography mechanic and introduces some new areas. While the original was already pretty dense and wacky, this game turns it up to 11; fighting a midget clown with an icecream gun is somehow the least exciting thing to happen in the story.The game also supports 2 player co-op, with the second player playing as a Chuck Greene. This however does not seem to have any bearing on the story whatsoever; Katey is not present for you to give Zombrex to and no one ever acknowledges Chuck in cutscenes.In September 2016, both Off the Record and its parent game received re-releases on PS4, Xbox One, and PC, alongside the original Dead Rising. Unlike the other two, it was a digital only release. | |

Not as You Know Them | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_1b0040c6 | comment |
Not as You Know Them: While most of the characters are the same as the original game, there are some key differences. Chuck is a Psychopath due to losing Katey (who is implied to have been eaten rather than having turned, judging by the blood splatters around her backpack), Phenotrans' mole is Stacey, not Sullivan, Sullivan himself replaces Rebecca as the one killed by The Mole (although his death isn't quite as abrupt; he actually manages to give Frank some final words of encouragement before expiring), and Rebecca survives. Also, Brandon seems to be slightly more rational, as he's revealed to be the "go between" for TK and Stacey. | |

The Survivor A.I. is noticeably more incompetent and are physically weaker than they were in the original Dead Rising 2, although not quite as bad as they were in the first Dead Rising. This is either to balance the game because Capcom throught they were too powerful in the original version, or because Frank gives off an aura that makes his allies behave like idiots. Or maybe it's some sort of sick CallBack to the original? | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: TK is even worse than in the original game; while his original biggest crime was one of inaction, in that he let the outbreak happen so he could profit, here he actively supplies the bomb and manipulates Brandon into going through with it. Stacey (Agent S) ends up taking Sullivan's place as the main villain and is now an agent of Phenotrans who's benevolence and kindness is just an act. In Sandbox Mode, several survivors who are normally friendly are inexplicably hostile to you for no reason and will attack you on sight, with Rebecca Chang being the most stand out example. | |

Unintentionally Unwinnable | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b | comment |
Unintentionally Unwinnable: You'd have to deliberately go out of your way to do this, but it is possible to do something at the start of the game to make it so you'd get softlocked at the end of the game. At the start of the game, you are intended to find Zombrex, which they intend for you to find it by going to Roy's Mart at the other end of the Royal Flush Plaza, beat up some looters and rescue Denyce. The developers partially anticipated this softlock by removing all instances of Zombrex before finding this. However, there is something they missed. A new feature exclusive to Off the Record are security keys. If you find one, you can exchange it at the bank in the Uranus Zone to get something, usually money, but also items like magazines, and in this case, Zombrex. There are 2 security keys that will give Zombrex as a reward. Key 673 can be found inside the Fortune City hotel, right before you enter the unfinished area of the South Plaza. The developers slightly took this one into consideration by locking the doors to the hotel before you are supposed to gain access to it. However, it can be bypassed by going to the Uranus Zone and entering it through the side, which the developers did not lock. Alternatively, you can enter the Atlantica Casino. In the fountain area right at the entrance, key 999 is right there and you can also use that for Zombrex. If you use either Zombrex and deliberately avoid Roy's Mart, the door in the back will still be locked. This becomes an issue in Overtime mode as it's not possible to unlock the door as a required item is locked behind it to complete that mode, so you will have to restart the game. Granted, this is minor because you'd have to go out of your way to do this, but still very punishing just for skipping saving Denyce. There's no way out of this without restarting the story. | |

Plot Twist | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_3b23e81 | comment |
This game also has a couple of new plot twists. Brandon Witthaker is bribed by T.K. to bomb the zombie pens, thus creating the Forthune City outbreak, and he later kills Vikki Taylor. (With the mission to rescue an endangered plant given to Frank by Europa Westinghouse.) The villain is still Phenotrans, but the operative that set the events in motion is Stacy, leader of C.U.R.E., while Sullivan dies trying to stop her. In Overtime Mode, Frank has to get some items for T.K., who gives a sarcastic response to Frank, while in the original he said nothing to Chuck. Also, Frank has to rescue Rebecca Chang, who was only wounded by Stacy. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Frank's last line in the trailer, "Frank West is back in the game." Chuck's rant about how zombies are annoying, but easy, and even fun, to kill. This is pretty much the point of the series. Eric Masters, a survivor, is a gamer and constantly does this throughout his rescue mission. | |

Bragging Rights Reward: The Proto Man costume, much like Arthur's armor from the vanilla version of the game, but less costly overall. The helmet is still won by beating Jack at poker, but can also be obtained by killing him in Sandbox Mode. The boots can be found in the Ultimate Playhouse store in Palisades Mall. The jumpsuit is won for getting bronze or better in Sandbox Mode's challenges. Finally, the Buster and Shield is obtained from getting Ending S. Wearing the helmet and/or boots with the Buster adds splash damage to the Buster's shots, and wearing the entire costume will increase your running speed. | |

Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_5663a595 | comment |
Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole: The line Brandon Whittaker says before his fight "Oh, I see. You're losing the courage to finish what you started!" is altered to "Oh, I see. You're losing the courage to do what needs to be done." since unlike Chuck in canon, Frank wasn't framed for causing the outbreak. The problem is that the line still implies that Brandon believes that Frank is connected to the outbreak and simply got cold feet, even though he knows that's not the case since he was the one who started it. Though it could be argued that he was simply lost in his delusions by that point. | |

Meta Twist | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_57cfcbdd | comment |
Meta Twist: The new plot takes the player's expectations from the first game and uses them like a weapon to shock the player. Stacey is the Big Bad all along. CURE is a front to manipulate naive activists into starting outbreaks. Sullivan is a good guy, completely justified in his dislike of Stacey, and even saves Frank's life. Rebecca survives (in the best ending). Many of the returning missions change up the locations and start times of the survivors, for better or for worse. Prominent examples include the two survivors with money briefcases, the two comedians, the gambler who wants his money back, and the old woman in the toy store. | |

Not His Sled | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_5a36f8bc | comment |
Not His Sled: With very slight changes, this game plays out pretty much the exact same way the original Dead Rising 2 did, which means Sullivan still has his moments of foreshadowing his betrayal. However, it's not him who reveals himself to be a Phenotrans plant and kills Rebecca this time, it's Stacey, and she just wounds Rebecca, but makes sure to kill the Good All Along Sullivan. | |

Vigilante Injustice: In the alternate continuity of Dead Rising 2, Carl Schliff tries to kill Frank West with a parcel bomb under the belief that he committed mail fraud for accepting a package that didn't belong to him. After blowing up his mail cart, Carl fights Frank under the belief that he's taking advantage of the anarchy to do whatever he wants. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation: No matter how good you are in the beginning "Terror is Reality" section, the story proceed as if Frank got a humiliating defeat and a consolation prize instead. In Evan's boss cutscene, he recognizes Frank as his brother's killer due to a nearby photo of him drifting in front of his face. Evan will still be able to recognize him even if his head is completely covered, such as by the Servbot helmet. | |

The new plot takes the player's expectations from the first game and uses them like a weapon to shock the player. Stacey is the Big Bad all along. CURE is a front to manipulate naive activists into starting outbreaks. Sullivan is a good guy, completely justified in his dislike of Stacey, and even saves Frank's life. Rebecca survives (in the best ending). | |

Oh, Crap!: Frank lets out a seriously worried one when he meets Chuck and accidentally grabs "Katey's" leg. In Sandbox Mode the first challenge you can do is "Rooftop Massacre", which after a few thousand zombie kills get's a sequel named "Rooftop Massacre Pt. 2". Either you guessed it from the trope name or that a certain zombie spawned, activating the challenge unprepared can become this. That is until you end the challenge and well... good luck getting off the roof in one piece. | |

Pandering to the Base | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_bb22911e | comment |
invoked Pandering to the Base: Word of God has explicitly said Off the Record is one huge ball of pandering.note Technically, they called it fanservice, but their definition for that is different than what most people think. Frank even lampshades this if you go into Sandbox mode, where he gleefully leaps off the helicopter (a la the original Dead Rising) stating how it's no longer about the scoop, but his own personal vacation. | |

Minor Crime Reveals Major Plot | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_bd79d896 | comment |
Minor Crime Reveals Major Plot: Not exactly minor, but: Frank, after finishing his bout in Terror is Reality, follows T.K. backstage, where he sees him handing a Briefcase Full of Money to a C.U.R.E. activist as well as a bomb, that is then used to release the zombies onto Fortune City. → Plot to cast C.U.R.E. as Bomb-Throwing Anarchists, all the while TK and his goons can rob the cash from the casinos → The Reveal that T.K. was ordered to bribe the C.U.R.E. member to release the zombies, and that Stacy was really an operative for Phenotrans with the task of unleashing another outbreak. It's also revealed that they were responsible for the Las Vegas outbreak as well, so that Queens could grow and be harvested for their zombrex producing pheromones, and will keep orchestrating more outbreaks for the sake of keeping high the demand of Zombrex. | |

Jump Scare | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_c04b1231 | comment |
Jump Scare: In the last second of the S ending, a zombie jumps in front of the camera and screams, giving the viewer one more scare, similar to that of Dead Rising 2. The "Scare Zombies" are intended to serve this very purpose. They're supposed to pop out when you come across a corpse or turn certain corners. They get their own Scare Chord and everything! | |

Capcom is literally selling the standard fare of cheats, such as unlimited weapon durablility, instant PP, god mode, filters and super speed. You can make the game a breeze, but it will cost you ($5.00, 400 MS Points). | |

Show Within a Show: Similar to the main Dead Rising 2, Terror Is Reality is the in-universe game show (though it is wrestling zombies in this release). Also similar to the main release, there are movie posters throughout Fortune City. In the theater though, the only thing Frank can watch is a promotional video for a timeshare. | |

Irony: Early in the game, one of the TIR workers backstage asks Frank for his autograph. This guy makes a remark that the autograph would be worth something if something happened to Frank during the show. Later, when Frank confronts Evan, the same guy can be seen having been eaten. The photograph Frank signed is also what instigates Evan. | |

Cutscene Incompetence | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_c5e42cbd | comment |
Cutscene Incompetence: Happens quite a few times throughout the game as characters are shown to be weaker in cutscenes than in gameplay. In Ending D, Frank gets killed in one shot by an unknown survivor (most likely Stacey), while even a low-level Frank can eat up at least a couple of those in gameplay. Subsequently in Ending B, Frank gets overpowered and pinned down by a zombified T.K and the armed pilot abandons him for two other survivors in the helicopter due to a small pack of zombies closing in, while even a small pack zombies prove to be a minimal threat to either Frank or survivors in gameplay, let alone an individual zombie. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Edgier: Off The Record manages to be both to the original Dead Rising 2. Examples: We have the new Uranus Zone theme park area, which manages to lighten the atmosphere a little bit (see Denser and Wackier above), yet Katey dies and Chuck goes psycho because of it. This is balanced by Frank's lack of personal ties, allowing for a more light-hearted story, as well as having a clown (Evan) as a boss, yet Stacey ends up being the villain. Sullivan turns out to be a good guy, Rebecca survives, and there are a handful of new, entertaining survivors, but Vikky Taylor gets turned into a victim. | |

Gaiden Game | |

Gaiden Game: This version of "DR-2" has Frank West as The Hero, among other changes, including: New psychopaths like Evan the Clown, who wants to avenge the death of his brother Adam from Willamette, and Chuck Green who went off the deep end after Katie died, and replaces Leon Bell from the original game. A couple of new survivors like Kuss and Woo are easier to find and rescue. All slot machines give money when busted. In the original, only a specific machine in a cluster gave money when smashed. The Uranus Zone amusement park makes the map much bigger. Frank has the ability to create new weapon combinations. This game also has a couple of new plot twists. Brandon Witthaker is bribed by T.K. to bomb the zombie pens, thus creating the Forthune City outbreak, and he later kills Vikki Taylor. (With the mission to rescue an endangered plant given to Frank by Europa Westinghouse.) The villain is still Phenotrans, but the operative that set the events in motion is Stacy, leader of C.U.R.E., while Sullivan dies trying to stop her. In Overtime Mode, Frank has to get some items for T.K., who gives a sarcastic response to Frank, while in the original he said nothing to Chuck. Also, Frank has to rescue Rebecca Chang, who was only wounded by Stacy. The major improvement overall was to implementation of the Anti-Frustration Features. (See above.) | |

Composite Character: Europa Westinghouse is a composite character of herself and Vikky Taylor and will give Frank the side-mission of recovering a plant from a store on the Palasides Mall in the latter`s place. Vikky Taylor is killed by Brandon Whittaker in a cutscene. Off the Record`s Frank West is arguably a composite character of the original versions of himself and Chuck Greene. Richard Kelly is a composite character of himself and Stuart Holmes, in that Richard starts a "mutiny" (ie bothering people) unless he's given a magazine to read, much like how Stuart Holmes becomes angry about Chuck once he finds out about the TV report. | |

Fake Difficulty: Case 7-4: Breach. Short version, you have to grab some items while Survivors are fighting zombies. Whereas the parallel case in the original game gives them all bloated health that makes them basically indestructible, there is no such luxury here, so completing the case without anyone dying is a complete crapshoot, especially since zombies will just show up out of nowhere instead of only coming from the gate. | |

| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Nerfed: The Survivor A.I. is noticeably more incompetent and are physically weaker than they were in the original Dead Rising 2, although not quite as bad as they were in the first Dead Rising. This is either to balance the game because Capcom throught they were too powerful in the original version, or because Frank gives off an aura that makes his allies behave like idiots. Or maybe it's some sort of sick CallBack to the original? Inverted with the looters and mercenaries, who are much tougher this time around and have a huge variety of weapons and nasty tricks. Combine the two, and you get survivors who are often killed by looters or mercenaries. In the original Dead Rising 2, Chuck could wear one piece of the DLC costumes to gain their abilities. If he wore one part of each costume, he would get the abilities of all four costumes at the same time. However, Frank must wear all four pieces to get the benefits of the costume, so mixing and matching is no longer allowed. | |

Vinyl Shatters: You can throw vinyl at zombies, which shatters. May be a hat-tip to Shaun of the Dead. | |

Would Hit a Girl: Sullivan - but only if the woman in question is The Mole. Frank himself isn't afraid to fist fight with Stacey during the final phase of the fight with her. | |

Mermaiding Swimsuit | |
| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_f63c2813 | comment |
Mermaiding Swimsuit: Frank West is given an optional side mission to rescue Tammy Blaine, whose job was to dress up as a mermaid in the Atlantica Casino. When Frank reaches her, she says that she was doing her job of entertaining the gamblers when "Terror is Reality's" zombies got loose and infected Fortune city. Frank tells her that they can reach the shelter quickly if she takes off tail end of her costume, only for Tammy to say she's "going commando," forcing Frank to carry her through a zombie horde. | |

You Killed My Father | |

You Killed My Brother: One of the new Psychopaths in Off the Record is Evan, the brother of Adam the Clown from the original Dead Rising. He's initially friendly (if divorced from reality), but quickly turns hostile when he realises that you're Frank West, the man who killed his brother. You can be wearing a servbot head and Protoman's helmet and he'll still recognize you. | |

Department of Redundancy Department: A series of trailers for Off the Record showcase Frank's ultimate fall from grace: he's reduced to shilling the "Disposable Digicheap Disposable Camera" along with "Frank's Fantastic Foto Facts". | |

| Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (Video Game) / int_ffb55ae3 | comment |
Fauxshadow: The cutscenes in Off the Record use about 40%-50% of the same dialogue as the original game, so all the dialogue and camera angles suggesting there's something not quite right about Sullivan are still there. However, this all turns out to be a Red Herring, as this time Stacey turns out to be the Big Bad instead of Sullivan. | |
