Style Over Substance: Dead Rising 3 Review | Daily Mail

When Perfect Dark Zero graced the Xbox 360, it served as a stunning showpiece of the console’s power. Entertaining it was not.

The same can be said for Dead Rising 3. Indeed, when you’re first treated to hundreds of the undead roaming the streets of Los Perdidos, California, it’s a wonderful glimpse inside the Xbox One’s graphical potential.

These reviews must be a pain to watch by some of the xbox fans, fanboys banking on reviews need to get humbled.

svoulis3803d ago

Think its funny we have the opposite effect here.

Known sites giving PS4 lower review scores

Smaller sites giving PS4 higher review scores

Known sites giving XO higher review scores

Smaller sites giving XO lower review scores.

That is the pattern I am seeing...its really sad.

Too bad the entire world has their head up the Internets ass and can't make choices on their own.

thereapersson3803d ago

Well to highlight your point, both EGM and Eurogamer gave Forza 5 a 7 and a 6.5 (respectively). They are very well-known sites. This whole launch cycle will be an interesting one for sure.

svoulis3803d ago

We all know what "paid sites" i am talking about.

I don't even need to name them. We just know

falviousuk3803d ago

I wasnt expecting 9's from forza, its a launch title and is more an iterative version. So these review scores seem about right, will find out on Friday, thankfully i got forza free with the xbox.
Its next year when we should start to see games for both consoles shine, then beyond we should really see the fruits of the next gen.

It takes time for devs to get up to speed on new hardware.

NateCole3803d ago

Its a hard call on that. Do you trust the big paid sites or do you trust the small independent but potentially fanboy sites?.

Personally though i never relied on reviewers. If i want a game i get it.

With twitch and a host of other social media for this new gen there will be less need for gamers to need game reviewers as they can see more and trust other gamers they know reviews.

dedicatedtogamers3803d ago

I've noticed just the opposite.

Known sites praising the PS4.

Smaller sites churning out endless "15 things broken on the PS4" articles.

SuperWeeb3803d ago

The Daily Mail is one of the most popular British newspapers, it's hardly small.

But I don't trust most large review sites regardless, it's evident the majority of them get brided... Why else does CoD and the same filth get constant near perfect scores every year?
Sites like IGN and Polygon are dead to me when they rate God Hand 3/10 and significantly lower Dragons Crown scores because they're crying about feminism.

Angrymorgan3803d ago

Both ps4 and xbo games are getting mixed reviews..I think some gamers are expecting too much innovation so early on in both systems life cycles

Lboogieskells3803d ago

Smaller sites using click bait articles? What a surprise. /s

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...

Darksonic221354d ago

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

InklingGirl1353d 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.

Darksonic221353d 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.

ColdSin1353d ago

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

darthv721353d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1353d ago

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

RamRod881353d 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.

DeadManMMX1353d 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.

Gamerking821353d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891353d 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."
