I'd like to revisit it too. It was the most fun I had at the start of this gen. I wish we got this game instead of 4. C'mon Capcom...

It's probably fairly cheap at the current time or it will be on a Steam or Xbox sale. It's also currently in the Xbox Game Pass if that interests you at all.

CandarianGaming2472d ago

Excellent game just horrible frame rate dips and an awful field of view. PC mods kind of helped but it needs a remaster

Erik73572472d ago

Kinda crazy that this game never came out for ps4

WilliamSheridan2472d ago

Honestly I thought it was a great progression of the series. DR4 was utter dog shit. But this one was a fresh coat of paint away from being amazing...

nX2472d ago

How was 4 worse than 3?

Well it is capcom... street fighter v was / is junk

nX2472d ago

^I think 3 was not much better than 4, if anything both were mediocre.

WilliamSheridan2472d ago

3 had a progressing system that made sense. A darker, gritty aesthetic that still made sense to the game world. A vast world to explore that was interesting to get to know. A food system that made exploration a requirement. Bases you could establish.

4 felt like they took arcade mode, cranked it up to 11 and said dick it here's a game. The purple who liked this game originally didn't vocally defend the game enough and Caps on listened to a vocal minority. The game was heading in the right direction and took a hard turn and crashed.

Great game full of fun events and crafting. Didnt get into dlc nearly as much though

I loved Dead Rising 3. It's just good fun. I didn't get 4 but as much as I liked the look of it the complaints have turned me off. Mostly because they all seem justified

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...

Darksonic221384d ago

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

InklingGirl1384d ago

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

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

Darksonic221384d 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.

ColdSin1384d ago

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

darthv721384d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1384d ago

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

RamRod881384d 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.

DeadManMMX1384d 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.

Gamerking821384d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891384d 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."
