Sony may have talked Capcom into making Dead Rising 2 PS3 Exclusive.
Videos of the canceled Dead Rising: Dia De Los Muertos have come to light, giving us a look into what the game could have been.
Shame loved the Dead Rising series. Even enjoyed 4 but not sure why they removed the campain co op.
Dead rising 1 was one of my favorite games back in the day. I never got into the others like I did DR1. DR2 was ok but 3 and 4 were kinda lame.
Good Riddance. Capcom Vancouver's entries are a big stain on what was a great, charming game series.
The ideas shown here are the pinnacle of their ineptness. Yeah, let's remove items on the ground, a core mechanic to the franchise, and one that people would show they still love in BOTW 2 years later.
TheGamer Writes "Dead Rising first burst onto the scene 16 years ago. At the time the game was a groundbreaking technical achievement, and a great showpiece for the then-new Xbox 360 due to how many zombies it could cram onto the screen at once. However, it was more than a mere tech-demo. Dead Rising captivated fans with engaging gameplay that allowed you to use almost anything as a weapon, packing that choice with unique bosses and an iconic protagonist in Frank West."
I definitely agree.
What I always found amazing in DR1 was how it was a survival game first and a sandbox game second, and not the other way around...
Your weapons were resources for specific situations, and you always had to juggle your resources and plan your runs... "I'm gonna get two X weapons on this store for hordes and then I'll get to that other store and get Y weapon for Z boss".
Although the trend of combining weapons that started in DR2 and so on was fun, it removed that layer of strategy and streamlined the series too much by catering to the "it's too hardddd :((" crowd, since you only had to focus on crafting the same 2-3 kinds of strong weapons and you're good for the rest of the game...
This was one of the games I got an Xbox 360 for back when. Dead rising. Lost odyssey. Blue dragon. Alan wake. Anyway the last 3 didn't disappoint. I thought dead rising was kinda eh. I didn't like the setup or how it played out. It's been years but if I remember right it was some kind of timer during the missions or whatever you wanna call them. Straight turned me off. I never even tried the sequels.
The Dead Rising series has enjoyed a long and storied history over the years, but which game in the series is best?
Its their best title to date and i don't think it would be smart to allow them to do it, but who knows its a rumor anyways so we will see.
...Capcom wants to make money, and they made a lot with the 360 and Dead Rising... Capcom isn't that stupid to make the sequel a PS3 exclusive.
Uh, I guess this is the official EGM thread now. Or something.
103 million PS2s shipped and well close to 100 million sold does say alot about fan base vs a 25 million xboxes shipped. and considering that Xbox360 is now free of shortages, one would think that it would be selling in high volumes, seeing that 360 fans say its hottest console, yet the DS, PSP, and PS2 fly shelves. What could the rest of the world be waiting for when the 360 is so "hot"? well my guess is every one wants a PS3 and Wii. that says alot about a "hot" next gen console 9 months deep on market, and a full year come launch of it's competitors this fall. and still aint selling in the volumes it would like ... ok yep. but hey dont bash me i have a 360, you asked for facts and i gave you some number thats all just saying, since all you 360 fan kids tout the 360 as all that, a bag of chips and a soda. news flash... it's not, and very far from it.
