Dead Rising 3 Demo - Gamescom 2013

IGN: Try out a number of incredible costumes and weapons before laying siege to hundreds and hundreds of zombies.

NYC_Gamer3906d ago

The Dead Rising franchise has always been too arcadey for my taste

Thepharaoh3906d ago (Edited 3906d ago )

If it's not in your taste why are you commenting on a page talking about it? Killzone isn't in my taste and you don't see me on ANY of the articles regarding it's demos I also don't try to say negatives things about it's style in order to justify my out of place and unnecessary opinion.

JokesOnYou3906d ago

Well the vid quality sucks and this guy plays like its his first time ever with a controller in his hand, he sucks and gets stuck and bumps into everything.

aceitman3906d ago

is it me , theres a lot of screen tearing , or is it the video.

windblowsagain3906d ago

It's the framerate. 18-20fps in alot of places.

Needs alot of optimizing. They overshot GPU budget on PC.

12.8gp of Xboxone is not that much.

cozomel3906d ago

why the hell are people disagreeing with him? its true, there is alot of screen tearing and frame dropping. What the hell is wrong with you people? dont like the truth. Game looks like a good improvement over the prevous titles

malokevi3906d ago (Edited 3906d ago )

The first thing that the dev beside him says when questioned about what they are still working on is, and I quote:

"We're working on optimizing the framerate"

You people are insane. I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Red3906d ago (Edited 3906d ago )

I agree, it should be a more............realistic..... ........zombie...............ap ocalypse................game... ...........

Sketchy_Galore3906d ago

He said arcadey, not unlikely. Besides, there's nothing wrong with wishing a game based around a scenario unlikely to happen in real life would stick closer to realism in every other sense. You can disagree and think it should be set in a less realistic world but just because a game/movie/book contains one unrealistic aspect that doesn't mean everything else should automatically be off the wall and ridiculous. If The last of us ended with Joel grabbing a jetpack and flying to the planet Dogballs to fight the supreme overlord of zombies would you think, 'huh, that kinda broke the immersion the whole game seemed to be building' or would you think 'oh well there's zombies in it so this is perfectly fine'?

princejb1343906d ago

Agreed
Dead rising 1 was good but dead rising 2 got boring quick
I. Hoping the best for 3

showtimefolks3906d ago

is there still the stupid time limit story line? i hated those time missions

robotgargoyle3906d ago

I read that the time limit is gone except in a "hardcore" difficulty. The time limit turned me off on the previous titles.

Thought the controls were wonky and aiming with the left stick was awful.

It looks cool though, but it's still Dead Rising. For better or worse.

showtimefolks3906d ago

robotgargoyle

yeh but with capcom its let's throw zombies at the screen and call it a day, this series has so much more potential

grinding/tedious boss fights
very stupid time limit stories
combat like you said felt stiff in a way

hopefully DR3 will improve on all that

donman13906d ago

Is this running on the Xbox360 or the XboxOne. I am going to say 360 cause it does not look next gen. Plus more of the same so far in the preview videos.

okmrman3906d ago

i guess you havent seen knack lol

thetruthx13906d ago

This game looks so good and they haven't even shown missions yet. Looks like a lot of replay value especially seeing how they'll be tougher zombies too.

Hadoken!

X1 Day 1

Rimeskeem3906d ago

Hope you people getting the xbox one enjoy it

GiantEnemyCrab3906d ago

I will. Day one I will be playing this bad boy. Good Halloween game to play.

PFFT3906d ago

Yep same here! Day one for me!

Rimeskeem3906d ago

probably day 700 or so for me but ill try getting it eventually

PFFT3906d ago

At least you are willing to give it a shot.

Rimeskeem3906d ago

im going to get hooked on the multiplats until second son

IamTheStorm813906d ago

I'm getting this on day one, and I know the guy addressed the frame rate in the video, but I hope he's being honest about getting it up to 30 because the frame rate is just bad. Not to mention the screen tearing.

Can't wait for this game, but it really needs cleaned up in the performance department.

GiantEnemyCrab3906d ago

The tearing and FR I will be watching to make sure they do indeed fix it. That is unacceptable in a final game on a "next gen" system.

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...

Darksonic221365d ago

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

InklingGirl1365d ago

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

1364d ago
MadLad1365d ago

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

Darksonic221365d 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.

ColdSin1365d ago

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

darthv721365d ago

Check out the vid i posted above.

MadLad1365d ago

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

RamRod881365d 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.

DeadManMMX1365d 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.

Gamerking821365d ago

But you never know it might be RISING again someday .

moriarty18891365d 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."
