Capcom: Dead Rising 3 couldn't have been achieved without Microsoft

Although Dead Rising 3 'would probably have seen the light of day' even without Microsoft's input, Capcom isn't sure it could have achieved it on its own.

This is a killer title. MS did a great job of getting this exclusive. Hell I know a lot of people will buy Xboxone just for this and Halo

Abash4387d ago

It does look good, but it's not enough to make me spend $500 on an Xbox One or put up with the DRM policies

Muffins12234387d ago

Yea ill wait or year but ill defiantly get a xbox one when it gets cheaper and learn to allow used games etc.

jimbobwahey4387d ago

Yup, Dead Rising 3 and Titan Fall look amazing, but there is no way on earth I'm buying an Xbox One. Sorry, but $100 more for weaker hardware, forced Kinect, no used games, mandatory 24 hour online checkins and all the other garbage Microsoft is spewing?

Hahahaha, Xbox One is for idiots. I'll wait for the next Dead Rising game on PS4 :)

blitz06234387d ago

Unless the TV features are the reason DR3 was made possible on the X1, this is a timed exclusive

Nitrowolf24387d ago (Edited 4387d ago )

Gonna be honest. It looked great but such a huge change in direction. my issue though is with how Capcom showed emo. I know it's a work in progress and all, but if Capcom is gonna play the number game with us for F sakes don't have Hoards zombies standing around in frozen (Yes frozen, not walking in place or moving slightly, FROZEN liek ICE) poses. I doubt many people took note of it, but there were a lot of zombies not moving at all in that demo. Maybe I missed the explanation? It seems as if they had it set up so the game would trigger them in the demo when he entered a radius.

2:40 (top right)
3:15 (zombie by the taxi freezes)
4:21 wtf was the point of addding thos eones in the background?
There's pletny other not moving and frozen in place.

I'm just saying, nothing to do with the Xbox One, but Capcom really did play tricks with the zombie count. it's easier to have stilled than have additional moving stuff stress out the engine. I'm sure it cna handle it, it just bugged me when I noticed that.

SeanScythe4387d ago

I saw that to, how they were just background unless he walked toward them. When he shoots the flare only the nearest ones to him go to it.

Foxgod4387d ago

Maybe thats because they are zombies, and have limited senses?

Jeez, you people are so desperate to find flaws...

Nitrowolf24387d ago (Edited 4387d ago )

@Foxgod

did you watch that video? Did you even bother looking at those points? Have limited Sense? Well of course they do, but that doesn't excuse them from having none moving ones in masses.

Watch the video and pay attention. Look at when he gets into the car. Your telling me all those zombies should be frozen as an iceberg?

http://prntscr.com/19mxpd

none of them move at all, they are touting zombies and in the next part "but they are still a threat". And this happens throughout the entire demo. Like I said, I'm not complaining about the Xbox One, I'm claiming at Capcom for pulling such a sneaky trick.

You are telling me, and this is literally the fundamental of every zombie, that with all the movement happening, NONE and I MEAN NONE OF THEM IN THOSE AREAS ARE GOING TO MOVE?

and it wasn't just the nearest ones going for the flare, he used that opportunity to run, and you can see the ones that were further still go after the flare.

SeanScythe4387d ago

Same as the first Dead Rising, it was on XB360 and not PS3 then part 2 was on both. Seems MS has a deal with Capcom when it comes to DR titles. But I didn't buy a 360 for the first one which I really wanted and the same goes this one.

GamersHeaven4387d ago (Edited 4387d ago )

Sorry this not a system seller never was never will be.

@Cam977 Kinda does graphically it looks mediocre but Deadrising was never know for its graphics my big complaint is they stripped what made it unique (the humor)Now it looks like a generic zombie game.

Cam9774387d ago

Seems like a cheap The Last Of Us.

theWB274387d ago

@Cam977
Dead Rising released before even before the first Uncharted...the series has always been about hoards of Zombies- this is more of it. How is it ripping The Last of Us?

nthstew4387d ago

by input capcom means $$$$$$ and Microsoft buying this IP weeks before E3 so they put on a show .. shame on u .. never mind ps4 for me day one just not ready for this..

CarlosX3604387d ago

Oh, please, Capcom. Cut your bull$#!^. You can get better with Sony.

Timesplitter144387d ago

more like "that statement couldn't have been achieved without a bribe"

wastedcells4387d ago

After RE6 I have no faith in capcom. This game could end up being great or just not fun. Either way I'm not buying an x1 anyway so ill wait for the sequel on ps4.

WeskerChildReborned4387d ago

Even though it interests me, it's not a title worth getting the X1 imo, i really wished this could have been multiplatform but eh guess i'll just have to enjoy other games.

Of course Capcom would be courting Microsoft like this, they're the Japanese EA: money-hungry, abusive of their consumers and beating dead-horse franchises to the ground.

Muffins12234387d ago (Edited 4387d ago )

EA recently has canceled their online pass and games like battlefield 4 and mirrors edge 2 look like they offer allot more game for your money than other companies games...

animegamingnerd4387d ago

i wasn't convince until this E3 but EA might actually be changing look at battlefront, mirror edge 2, and adding more destruction and bringing back commander in battlefield 4

E2S4385d ago

Guess the Japanese EA won't be seeing their game in Japan lol

jc485734387d ago (Edited 4387d ago )

I own all versions of Dead Rising, even having said that it does not change my stand on the DRM issue. I really am sorry, but I am not going to buy xboxone for DR3 like I did in the past with the 360. I'm really sorry. I don't want to lie to myself and pretend this is OK. That's not me, but you guys should still enjoy the game. I will be watching your playthroughs and please make me feel jelly.

jay24387d ago (Edited 4387d ago )

Bulls*it. Money talks. On Paper PS4's more powerful............So right okay, next lie?

jay24387d ago

MORE PROOF! Devs can do the same on PS4 as XBOX ONE!

Belking4387d ago

I don't think so. Look at how titan fall and Forza uses the cloud. you can't do that with ps4.

phantomexe4387d ago

keep telling yourself that....if it helps you justify your purchase of xbox one. Big brother will watch over you everthing will be ok.

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...

Darksonic221777d ago

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

InklingGirl1777d ago

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

1776d ago
MadLad1777d ago

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

Darksonic221777d 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.

ColdSin1777d ago

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

darthv721777d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1777d ago

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

RamRod881777d 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.

DeadManMMX1777d 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.

Gamerking821777d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891777d 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."
