Capcom Vancouver is "giddy with excitement" about Dead Rising 4 and beyond

OXM: As we've already reported, Capcom Vancouver is not-so-quietly confident that there will be another Dead Rising game on Xbox One. Speaking to OXM at an event shortly before launch day, producer Mike Jones offered a rousing account of how the developer has revamped its tech for Dead Rising 3, adding that as far as sequels are concerned, anything goes.

Dead Rising 3 is such an awesome game. I love playing it and am super excited to play co-op with my friends once they get it. Killing thousands of zombies with ridiculous weapons is so much fun.

GrizzliS19873821d ago

always found Dynasty Warriors alot more entertaining, but i can see people liking DR more.
Cannot wait for next Sengoku Basara and Dynasty Warriors tho, i want to see if they can push the hardware and number of AI on screen as DR did.

dirigiblebill3821d ago (Edited 3821d ago )

I'd like Crackdown-style superpowers. Or alternatively, Crackdown 3.

Gazondaily3821d ago

I just wish they kept the realism and not the OTT craziness. I want a game with similar mechanics but more realistic. A bit like State of Decay really. I'll give this a go though.

Lol at your disagrees.

Wikkid6663821d ago

That's like saying that Saints Row should take out the over the top stuff and be more like GTA.

hankmoody3821d ago

Funny you say that because once the game was announced as being somewhat darker, the internet lost its mind and everyone was sure the gemae would be trash. I personally like the darker tone of it and it's a really good mix of creepy/scary and outright ridiculous. It's really hard to find a game as being scary when you're slaughtering zombies while wearing Lakers colored basketball jersey and shorts with red thigh high go-go boots.

Dragonborn3123821d ago

Yeah haha I understand. I love the crazy weapons but would not mind a bit of a more developed serious story. I highly recommend the game, super fun. It is the Saints Row of zombie games in my opinion, which is a great thing.

And yeah I laughed at the fact that I got so many disagrees, just expressing my enjoyment of the game. Those fanboys haha just go around and disagree with anything positive about Xbox.

Eldyraen3821d ago

The disagrees had nothing to do with fanboyism. DR was never a serious game and although I would love a more serious open world zombie game (Dying Light maybe) I don't believe it should change to be one (which 3 looked sort of like from original trailers--which would had been good and bad both depending on perspective).

I disagreed based on that as the change wouldn't had fit the original game. I agree however a more mature/serious zombie game wouldn't hurt either but not necessarily Dead Rising. If Capcom wants to make one I'd be fine with it but make it something new even if using a lot of similar mechanics.

It's a lot of fun. Hard to complete the main storyline when I spot a blueprint on the map.

Dragonborn3123821d ago

Collecting blueprints is so satisfying and fun.

christocolus3821d ago

I agree bro..and it surely deserves a sequel...hope crytek continues with their plans for a ryse sequel too?

christocolus3821d ago (Edited 3821d ago )

And now that the engine is all done..they could also try their hands on a new project .... i have a feeling ms may just hand over the development of the next crackdown to these guys...i wouldnt mind a new powerstone too

biRdy3821d ago

Can't stop playing this game, I'm going 100% on this for sure. Only need 8 more achievements.

Love Dead Rising! I hope the fourth game comes to PS4.

Kane223821d ago

same here. i thought it was stupid for them to even have part 3 exclusive oh well.

WeAreLegion3821d ago

Yeah. I guess it depends how money exchanges hands. Microsoft funded Dead Rising 3, so I don't think it would have been made without them. I hope Capcom can turn things around enough to make the fourth on their own.

Release the goddamn thing on PC or PS4.

JsonHenry3821d ago

^^ This. I played through DR2 on PC and it was amazing. Really bummed about MS paying them off to make it exclusive. Especially since I have no intention of purchasing and X1 any time soon.

mafiahajeri3821d ago

The only dead rising I really felt was good and awed the first time I played it was the original that was a fun game and seeing those level of graphics for te first time was pretty darn impressive.

PeaSFor3821d ago

meh, "Fraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank!! " FRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNK" was too anoying for my taste.

Eldyraen3821d ago

Which is why 3 is so cool. Has a great Easter egg for older fans quite early ;)

What Happened To The Dead Rising Series?

Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.

Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...

Darksonic221379d ago

Ah no, I just felt like writing it as I started playing the game again and wanted to offer up my opinions 😁

InklingGirl1379d ago

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the title.

MadLad1379d ago

Complacency and new teams who didn't understand what made the series special.

Darksonic221379d ago

Seems like there was just a ton of infighting aswell and so many more issues. Honestly sadly Dead Rising 5 before it was cancelled sounded nothing like dead rising, nothing learnt from. Dr4 at all.

ColdSin1379d ago

DR4 should have not been made anyways. DR3 closed everything nicely.

darthv721379d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1378d ago

They're a solid channel. I always click on their vids, unless it's a series/game I simply have no interest in.

RamRod881379d ago

They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.

DeadManMMX1379d ago

This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.

Gamerking821378d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891378d ago

haha yes it may....good one.

The Decade's Bizarre and Quirky Gaming News

VGChartz's Patrick Day-Childs: "2020 is upon us! The past decade has had some downs, like the influx of monetisation within full games, Blizzard's community backlash and EA winning the worst company in America award twice, but also some ups, like the leaps in understanding gaming from more mainstream companies to wholesome news like gamers helping preserve a controller signed by someone’s deceased mum.

The decade has also been the highlight of some… bizarre news, and I decided collect together some of the more obscure and quirky stories to make you giggle or question what the hell happened this decade."
