Dead Rising 3 versus Dead Rising 2 graphics

Better textures on the character models, interior walls, massive improvement in lighting and shadows, and much more detail on the zombies themselves. Dead Rising 3 is leaps and bounds ahead of its last gen predecessor in the graphics department.

Only those with poor eyesight or who are in denial would say there is little to no difference between last and next gen DR.

[ZombieKiller]

I wish this game wasn't an exclusive as I was looking to pick this one up, oh well!

As for the differences, I see quite alot without playing the game. I've seen so many videos on this game and to me, it looks truly next gen. I love the detailed world and the dark gritty graphics.

There is something about the gritty dark "unreal" world I absolutely love. I mean graphics like Arkham, or Gears. Not sure if this is running on the Unreal engine or not, but this game looks way better than it's predecessor and is right up there with the best of the gritty IMO. Gotta love that next gen lighting despite what system you have!

This game is fun. Just beat it a few weeks ago and can't wait for DLC.

[Kingthrash360]

there is a difference graphically between 2&3. the question here should be if dr3 is graphically possible on the 360. imo its is.
maybe not as many zombies but there are a few 360 games that look better than dr3.
just my opinion tho...i really dont care either way.

[Kingthrash360]

lol man thos fanboy glasses please take them off. i said graphically..not scale, not how many zombies just graphically.
its vs dr2, like the title says, but ofcorse it looks better than dr2 because all sequals typically look graphically better than its predecessor. looks at ground zeros on ps360, out does dr3..no?
thats my point its looks like it could be graphically done on the 360...

[Pogmathoin]

Its not poor eyesight. Its clearly those who hate Xbox and BS spreads like wildfire here, so its nothing more, nothing less.... Fanboyism... And before those rage, some say the same about some PS4 games looking barely better than PS3.... Its what the net has made of gamers....

[DejectedJeff]

dude DR 3 has no loading screens, dead rising 2 had 20 second loading screens after every cutscene and new location. that's pretty substantial leap, plus the increase of zombies on screen and better graphics.

[abstractel]

Bad video but I agree with RaidensRising.

[porkChop]

The graphics are obviously better, but I'm disappointed with the zombie variety. If you look closely, every single Zombie has the same body texture with the exact same scars. Nearly the exact same face on them, just different hair and clothes. That's about the only real difference. I'm expecting more than that from next gen, so hopefully that gets better in Dead Rising 4.

[OpieWinston]

Were we playing different copies of DR3? I was playing the game and if you get on top of a car and look at each of the zombies...I guarantee you..you will see a difference in the faces. I couldn't find a zombie with the same facial structure and scars as another...Unless I killed it and it respawned.

[porkChop]

I'm talking about in this specific video, when he gets on top of the table to show off the "variety" of zombies yet they're all the same body with different hair and clothes.

[OpieWinston]

Did you expect different body types for your average zombie.
Did you play DR3?
Because there is more than just one type of zombie in it. As you can see he's lvl 11 and probably isn't that far in the story. You encounter more and more different types of zombies with different body/facial types in the game as you progress through it.

Dead Rising 3 isn't the perfect game...but it's a major step up from DR2. That's what I believe is next gen. When you're able to not only up the graphical fidelity of the game overall but you're able to add more features into the game and open more doors through things like Kinect and better specs.

[JaredH]

I was too busy killing zombies to notice similarities in the hundreds that were on screen. Literally in my 30 hours of game-time I never even thought or looked for what you stated, not even once.

[sak500]

Even look at the details on the hat it's pretty obvious DR3 is huge improvement. Unfortunately not my type of game.

Would love to see the new gen versions of

GTA
Gears of War
PGR
Halo
Fable
BF5 (the true new gen version not the half hearted port)
COD (as above)

[Automatic79]

Its a shame that it is not your type of game. I thought the same thing until I beat it last week I had a lot of fun with it. Waiting on DLC.

[tigertron]

What a great idea, let's compare the graphics of a 2011 last-gen game to a 2013 current-gen game...

[fattyuk]

I'm glad someone said it before me,

I can understand comparing different gen versions of the same game, but this comparison is just a complete waste of time.

I'm expecting a graphic comparison of resident evil 1 to resident evil 4 next.

[Chris558]

yea well dead rising looks like shit on xbox one the previous ones too but the game is fun

[curtis92]

The lighting is the big difference. Character models, animations... most the same.

[MadSientist89]

horrible comparison..

[ExitToExisT]

what a lame video

[RedSoakedSponge]

the textures and lighting are obviously a step up. quite a big step up if you ask me!

[Moncole]

Dead Rising is one of those games were graphics don't matter. They focus on the amount of zombies on screen and that's what DR is about.

[Automatic79]

I agree the game play was fun and graphics never really mattered to me. Waiting on DLC.

[GamersHeaven]

Animations look exactly the same lol

[4logpc]

Considering that DR3 started development on PS3 and Xbox 360, it makes sense it looks like a last gen game but better textures , with a crap ton of zombies on screen.

[DEEBO]

All i know is i get my walking dead fix with this game.
who needs rick grimes when i got nick something latin for his last name taking walkers out.

[Automatic79]

I hope they create a DeadRising 4. Great game.

[urwifeminder]

Nice game only scratched the surface but it looks a hell of a lot better than the old ones in game enjoyable indeed have not encountered the slowdown yet not sure if its been patched up.

[JsonHenry]

Should do a comparison of Dead Rising 2 PC vs Dead Rising 3.

[bumnut]

I played DR 2 on PC @1080p in 3D, it looked amazing. I hope DR 3 makes it to PC.

[JsonHenry]

Yeah, it did look pretty clean on the PC. That is why I said compare it instead. There is still a leap in visuals for DR3 compared to it. Just not quite as large of one.

[Sevir]

Horrible comparison. A side by side would show better results, however the improvement is visible.

[illustratedDEO]

obviously it's because the powah of teh cloudz.

[bumnut]

You made yourself look a dick, congratulations.

[NeoTribe]

Looks better in a darker way than the last one. By no means do the graphics look next gen. Looky pretty blah really. Clunky controls aswell. Still pretty addicting running around trying to get all the weapon recipes.

[Letthewookiewin]

He was on a 4ft table and the zombies were just waving their arms at him.....

[Max-Zorin]

No community makes dumber comparisons than YouTube.

[Ps4Console]

What I don't get a lot of the Xbox 1 gameplay scenes were dark surroundings where has the Xbox 360 gameplay scenes were in light surroundings compared to the Xbox 1 wonder why ?
