Graphically this game will surprise a lot of people. I was looking at the road and everything and I just can't help to think that they used some form Megatextures. If you look closely at the roads, the textures look dynamic and unique to it's own and not a repeat.

Dead Rising 3 looks amazing and Microsoft should push this game more as oppose to Titanfall, which is coming out around March. I hope this game sells well, because it looks quality.

I had to view the vid from the source. DR3 looks great and its just nice to see a guy really having fun doing his job, it sounds like he and his team had a great time making this game. Day One for me.

Nice!

Anyway, If that framerate issue gets fixed... It might just be an alright game(I'll only watch YT videos of it though).

Elit3Nick3835d ago

from what I heard from recent builds the game felt extremely smooth, considering how choppy it was at e3, so they optimized the game well now. I'm excited for this, I might actually get this beside BF4 and Forza 5

Bruce_Wayne3835d ago

To be honest, DR2 was too easy and became dull very quickly. I don't expect much difference from this game.

zerogotit3835d ago

You must not like killing zombies.

Bruce_Wayne3835d ago

I do it's just that the game was very easy and repetitive. All I had to do was jump at a group and kick just to avoid them. Also, you can just get some freaking chainsaw and modify it to put one on each end. You would go through the zombies just like a knife cuts through butter.

joe903835d ago

Did you collect every survivor? If not then you failed to complete the game (properly)

Bruce_Wayne3835d ago

Nope it got boring. Only slightly challenging part was when zombies changed and began to run fast.

joe903835d ago

Your point was invalid then.

"Only slightly challenging part was when zombies changed and began to run fast" LOL Try having them around and escorting 4 survivors to the exit with no weapons or ammo While you are carrying 1 on your back.

You just decided to run and gun your way through without helping people (Which is the actual objective). Damn i would find it boring not actually doing the objectives and just running around killing waves of zombies till the clock ran out. Try saving everyone and see how easy it is then. It's very difficult to get the real ending.

At the end of the day you should not judge DR1 or DR2 off of walking past every objective in the game. Actually complete the games then come back and post your comment.

Bruce_Wayne3835d ago

How is it invalid? I don't know what you mean by saying "Try having them around and escorting 4 survivors to the exit with no weapons or ammo."

There's never a time when you don't have a damn weapon on you. You always carry one. Btw, whose to say that I didn't try to help the people? All I said was that I didn't help all off them which implies that I did attempt to help them. I always do. Especially in open world games like GTA, Dead Island, FC3, etc. That's very fun but unfortunately DR2 wasn't fun enough for me.

Btw, chill out lol. Your tone at the end is funny.

Elit3Nick3835d ago (Edited 3835d ago )

I agree with you on there, but the zombie ai looks vastly improved for this one, where in DR2 only the zombies right next to you would seek you out, in here you see a horde shamble towards you from quite a distance away, not to mention now that there are speedier zombies like the football zombie along with zombies that use guns.

Bruce_Wayne3835d ago

I don't know how I feel about the zombies this time around. Zombies with guns? I can see them holding melee weapons but guns? Idk. They do seem a little bit more challenging though so there's that.

Hufandpuf3835d ago

I've playedDR3 and I can tell you that it's much different than DR2. It's smoother and the zombies can be really aggressive, they even follow you into a store in hordes if your not careful.

In terms of being fun, it was the best game I played at the Xbox One demo warehouse.

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.

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."
