YES! Finally! I've been waiting for more Frank West since I finished Dead Rising 2. Did anyone else hate the fact that that game had no good unlockable items like the first game?

Im just glad it is a standalone Xbox Live Arcade release and not DLC for the disc version. I might have traded DR2 in. But i do like the idear of shorter cheeper downloadable dead rising games

I still don't understand the nature of this exclusivity agreement with MS. I understand releasing all DR related stuff to one system, but why let DR2 go multiplatform? Moreover why restrict all payquel content along with DR1? Just doesn't make any sense to me.

No PS3, no thanks.

Money. "

So that five dollar "payquel" was a one time only and will never happen again kind of thing huh?
 
Prove me wrong publishers!

" offline and online co-op"
 
Really? That doesn't sound right to me. Confirmation on offline coop please!
 
Anyway, Case Zero was a must buy at 400 points. For 800 points I'm going to hold out and wait for reviews and other gamers advice on whether it's worth that price or not.

I'm Dead Rising'd out for awhile, going to awhile til it's on sale.  Too much other stuff to play anyway.

Pretty old news, particularly the fact that it was standalone DLC...

Can't wait to play this.

Haven't gotten DR 2 but yet but I might get this first depending on how long it is.

Hope this means an MvC3 Frank West playable character announcement Tie-In.

First time I heard about this being a standalone title. Pretty thankful since I traded in my copy of DR2 when the TIY was still nice.

Pass.  I've had my fill of janky zombie games, thanks.

Haven't even touched Case Zero since I bought it, haven't played Dead Rising 2 yet so skipping on this for now (not for price reasons...just because I have a crapload of games to get through). But not a bad deal by any means.

Cool! 800 Microsoft Points? Case Zero was only 400!  
 
I'm not complaining though. Can't wait to get a demo and play it, then buying the game! Again Awesome!  
 
Offline Co-Op is also cool!

I've covered wars, ya know!

Nope.  Not with the first one being half as much.  I'd thus expect this one to be twice as much game...maybe they'll prove me right.

It's cool that they decided for it not to require the disk. All I care for is Frank West's zany adventures and that's it.

Yeah right.. This game hasnt been good since the first one.

So Chuck Greene did not die at the end of Dead Rising 2?

Might be a little too much to hope that since it's double the price it'll be double the playtime. I imagine the cooperative feature is what's supposed to justify the price hike.

" " offline and online co-op"  Really? That doesn't sound right to me. Confirmation on offline coop please!  "

More zombie killing WITH Frank West?  Yes, please.

dude that's my birthday!  what a great present to myself.

I loved Case Zero, skipped Dead Rising 2, and had my wallet at the ready to pick this up for 400 points.

...but 800? Hm.

Dead Rising 2 was fun in moments... just not the story moments.
 
Plus, offline co-op could be an absolute dream. Definitely a game arcade trials were made for.

Sadly no. At least not splitscreen. The menu in the livestream demo didn't show a system-link option, but I suppose that's not impossible to patch in. "

boooooo 800 points! Someone had to be "that guy".

" @Abyssfull:  Confirmed no Frank in single player. See my liveblog of the stream here in the forum. I like your idea of an unlockable, but it's 2010 dude, think paid DLC. :P And to quote the Capcom Unity guys: "Make some friends! Friends are good!" Uh, yeah. Guess they can't imagine people with Silver accounts being interested in co-op. "

I like this whole downloadable chapters without original game thing. Slight price hike? It's twice as much, the same price as your average XBLA title. Not that I'm complaining, there is bound to be plenty of value.

" dude that's my birthday!  what a great present to myself. "

Eh... not for 800 MSP. They should offer it at 400 if you've got the full game.

Haha yeah, it's pretty easy to understand really. "

Hm...2 days after I may or may not be surprised at suddenly owning the main game.  I honestly don't know whether I want this, even if Case Zero was really good.

Hell yeah!  Im DLing it right now! 

I really liked the 400 points pricepoint, and was hoping more publishers would follow. But apparently (sadly), even after the great succes Capcom had with it even they don't believe in it.  On the other hand, just because the first one was incredible value for 400 points is no reason to punish them now. All other publishers ask at least 800 points for games who usually have less value than case zero had.
 
Oh, and I am glad it is a standalone product.

Hmm... think I'll hold off on this for now. Got so much stuff to play through the now and just finished Dead Rising 2 (3 playthroughs in total) so kinda overdosed on zombie slaughter for now. Maybe after new year!

Where the hell is the PC version!?

So looking forward to this.
