Along side some other heavy hitters Microsoft has shown at PAX, Dead Rising 3 made the cut for some new gameplay footage for gamers to delight in. One of the more hotly anticipated launch titles for the Xbox One, any new videos on the open world zombie madness of DR3 has been well received, and thoroughly enjoyed.
The Dead Rising series has enjoyed a long and storied history over the years, but which game in the series is best?
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...
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.
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.
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."
This looks a lot more like the DR we know and love. I can't wait to actually see and play it for myself come release though.
Sad but off camera footage is actually more interesting than most of what they've shown with direct feed trailers. I guess its because Trailers so far were mostly just to announce it and now that people get to play and see it demo'd they can show off a bit more of the actual 'game'.
On a somewhat unrelated note: I hate not having more direct feed videos lately :( XBox for example has plenty to stream but most of it isn't even available for DL. PSN is guilty of this too but much less so and even many game sites haven't gotten their hands on as many direct feed videos as they used to. I always prefer DLing them than streaming as easier to keep things organized without looking ridiculous.
This build really shows off the improvements since e3. Graphics lighting weapons and street fighter style fighting......Awesome stuff here.
When this was first announced I had issue with the combo weapons that used substituted parts not visually reflecting those substitutions, now I understand.
Wouldn't it be awesome if they upped the co-op count. Roving street gangs of Frank West, Chuck Greene and Nick Ramos clones fighting shambling zombie hoards.
The more I see the more trouble I have picking my launch games was just going for forza 5 but damn this and Ryse look hell tempting and fun.
I love the whole look of this game its a big jump from the previous one. But it still has the slow run around feel to it I aint complaining though still looks great.
