Not looking forward to this. Unless the zombie count starts climbing (they say about 100 in the final version) it’s a strange port choice.
Go, breed zombie minions, breed.

Dead Rising was an interesting concept but not a great game. As a commentary on consumer culture it was excellent and enjoyable for a time.
The only thing that the Wii has over the 360 is the haptic input and I can imagine that would get tiring after awhile.

Yes I was actually. I thought the Japanese date had been announced ages ago and that it was the EU date.
Any way. I saw a video from the Nintendo thing in america. It looked really sparse on zombies which is a huge issue for Dead Rising. They should have done a DR” set someplace “tighter” like a University. 25 zheads in a classroom = crowded. In a mall not so.

Hey, VG247. Does this mean that the owners of George Romeros IP rights have signed a deal with Capcom?
Go and play reporters for me will you?
