It will be a full retail release and is scheduled to release Fall 2011 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. Like Dead Rising 2, the game is set in Fortune City, and will include a new area that is "not a casino and not a mall." This new area is called Uranus Zone and is a childrens theme park area.

 

The entire game is a "What If?" scenario where Frank West covered the Fortune City outbreak, instead of Chuck Greene. Frank is set to be the first player in Co-op and Chuck is set to be the second player in Co-op.

 

 

Being a huge Dead Rising fan, I can't freakin wait for this! Just check out the new place and the weapons, they look oh so satisfying.

 

Frank got fat. Damn.

If they don't have his original outfit in the game I'm going to buy it then flush it down the toilet.

It's sad if you ask me, DR was one of the BIGGEST games on Xbox 360, it really showed off what that Gen hardware could do, and I watched my friend play it plenty of times before getting my own copy, but it almost seems like the WOW factor has gone flat. That the time it's taken to bring back more of the same missed the boat....somewhat. There are plenty of Zombies now, in videogaming, but I tend to think the most fun was having this game on with a group of people in the room, rather then playing it by yourself.

That intro for DR1 is still rather spooky if you do play in a dark room, by yourself

I liked it better when Capcom developed their own f*cking games.

 

Who's handling it this time? Some unheard of Norwegian company?

Can they resume the level of interest, do you think? The Zombie thing from people I talked with is over-exploited.

They are two weeks old?! Damn how did I miss that? Thanks shinsta, will update the first post.

 

I love the music in The Missing Years trailer, Foto Facts are hilarious and Sandbox Mode is what everyone's been waiting for!

It was released two days ago and so far i've racked up 14 hours, 9 hours one sitting and 5 the second, I find it hard to stop playing once I start.

 

They finally made Dead Rising 2 into a good game, Frank West IS Dead Rising. Chuck can go lick my unwiped crusty arsehole and I sure hope they get rid of chuck forever.

Wait, what? It is really that good? I changed my mind of buying this when the reviews said it is EXACTLY THE SAME as Dead Rising 2.

 

Chuck is a psychopath, f*ck me!

What the f*ck? Is this some kind of sick f*cking joke?

 

Guy on the cover dosn't even look like Frank. And now he's some retarded rich guy. Didn't expect him to turn out like that mercie_blink.gif

Clearly you haven't seen the new trailers yet. Frank went on a downward spiral after his big scoop on Willamette. Yes, he turned on to be a rich guy after that but he lost it all after a couple of years which is why he looks like a fat hobo now.

 

Still on the fence on purchasing this.

I'm already working on a mod to restore Frank back to his former Willamette incident glory.

Frank makes the entire thing worth it. I don't even care about all the parts that are the same as DR2, I hadn't even played Dead Rising 2 enough for Off The Record to be too familiar.

I'm just so glad Chuck's gone.

I've rented the game when it came out last Tuesday and have been playing halfway through the game right now. As far as the game goes, I can tell you that it's not EXACTLY the same as DR2.

 

There has been some noticeable changes in gameplay. For one, there is a larger density of zombies in the game and they're a little more aggressive even in the daytime. Zombrex, magazine, and survivor locations have been mixed around as well.

 

As far as Story Mode goes, it's largely the same with a lot of tweaks in dialogue and a few surprise twists.

 

Sandbox mode adds in more replay value to the game. It's essentially Infinity Mode without the constant need to replenish health. The challenges are fun and any PP and money earned from Sandbox Mode can be used in Story Mode and vice versa.

 

Overall, fun game and definitely worth playing if you enjoyed the Dead Rising series.

Algonquin Bridge

(Spoilers ahead, but in spoiler tags)

 

Finished it this morning, and replaying the story.

 

A lot of fun to get back behind the wheel of Frank. Funnily enough, I didn't spend that much time in Uranus Zone. Not sure why. The addition of Sandbox Mode is fully welcomed, though in a way, I wish they included the Infinity Mode from the 1st Dead Rising, for the added challenge.

 

I'm going to go ahead and say (on the record, hurr hurr) that I much prefer the ending of Off The Record (The full, best, Overtime Ending) than the ending of DR2. Mainly because:

 

-Stacey turns out to be the Phenotrans bitch

-Sullivan goes out like a true bamf

-Rebecca survives, she and Frank go off into the sunset to "cover each others' wars"

 

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Dead Rising 2...but if I was given the choice to choose which game was canon, I'd go for Off The Record.

 

In any case, I eagerly await Dead Rising 3.

 

FAAANTASTIC.

I wouldn't wait for DR3... I read that they're considering continuing the story of Chuck and his daughter.

 

 

...f*ck that.

It seems to be done better than vanilla game, but Chuck Greene is better, if not equal character than Frank West. Nobody likes making pictures and Chuck was really good in Case Zero IMHO.

 

Anyway, if you're fan of Dead Rising 2, you still should play OTR.

Okay then, I'm gonna scramble some cash together and purchase this if I have the time.

 

@Triple Penetration (Gosh what a name.): FRANK WEST IS BETTER THAN CHUCK GREENE! Frank's one liners are so much better than Chuck's. Plus, who doesn't like taking pictures?

Gon' say somethin' real controversial here. Why, it's so controversial, I'm putting it in a spoiler tag.

 

I like Chuck

 

I mean, at first I was like "What!? Dead Rising 2 but WITHOUT Frank? This cannot be!" Then the previews started rolling in...then came Case Zero. And I gradually came to like the guy! I found his stoicism fitting for a guy living in a post-Willamette America, his devotion to his daughter admirable, and his combo weapons and one-liners rather funny. This is either me enjoying how he was portrayed, or me just being a hopeless sap.

 

I really like both him and Frank as Dead Rising protagonists. Hell, the way they play off each other in Case West was great fun to watch. I like to think that for DR3, they'd either have 2 separate campaigns for both Chuck and Frank, or maybe 1 big campaign shared between the two.

 

(End of Off The Record Spoilers)

I'd still prefer Off The Record to be canon. At least Rebecca can continue her ass-shaking lock-picking antics with her hero!

Read the spoilers because is the only thing that is gonna make me wanna buy this game. Rebecca's alive! My favorite Asian character is alive! So freakin' happy!

 

Is it worth selling Dead Rising 2 for $25 to get some cash to purchase this game?

Flame all you want but I prefer Chuck over Frank any day. I don't like the photographing (boring..) and the whole fat and old used-to-be-hero kind of type makes me very sad. So bring it on Futurama!

Enjoy and feel free to share these with friends and anyone you know

I don't get the hate Chuck thing either, I'm a bit annoyed at people saying they really screwed 2 up and loving OTR, it's just Chuck they don't like then it must be. Not people in here by the way - people in the world.
