Inside Kinect

If you're an old school Xbox fan you most likely remember the incredible break-out success of the original Dead Rising for the Xbox 360. The franchise has went on to sell millions of copies and even spawned several sequels on the Wii and PS3. With Dead Rising 3 Capcom is returning to their roots and making it Xbox One exclusive. Everything you know and love has been brought over with the addition of some next-gen enabled graphics and features.

For those who care about the story Dead Rising 3 is roughly 10 years after Dead Rising 2 in a city called Los Perdidos, a fictional city based in California that consists of four districts. Los Perdidos is in a state of ruin and under martial law following a zombie outbreak. With no way to leave, the new protagonist Rick, sets out to fix a plane so that he and other survivors can escape before a bomb takes out the city. 

The scale of Dead Rising 3 has been significantly upgraded over previous entries in the series. Every store and building is explorable. With the city itself being larger than all the previous games combined. The scale is even more impressive when you take in to account the game has zero load times and 3x times the zombies as the original with much more variety to boot. You can also expect over 100 weapon combinations and over 50 outfits. 

Dead Rising 3 also makes substantial use of Smart Glass. Using your tablet or smartphone you'll be able to call air strikes, check your mission list and look up locations such as gun stores or safe points and even add in-game waypoints to help you if you get lost. 

Kinect Integration

The Kinect features are unobtrusive and seem to add an extra layer of immersion to the experience. If you want to throw a zombie off just flick your controller and watch him go sailing. There will also be voice related features where you can taunt zombies to follow you by using your voice. You'll also be able to direct survivors to safety. The voice recognition is a double edged sword however. The game listens for any noise in your environment so if you're trying to sneak past a horde of zombies and your phone rings? You're toast.

Check out this exclusive 25 minute gameplay footage of Dead Rising 3 running on an Xbox One:

The game looks incredible despite some screen-tearing and framerate issues which we've been assured will be ironed out before release. 

Some interesting kinect integrations. I could think of some creative ways to taunt the zombies :)

I believe it is a launch title, I have it pre-ordered as one at least.  I mean, it better be a fucking launch title lol its the only "launch" title I was truly looking forward to until titanfall drops.

Edit:  As far as exclusives are concerned at least, thats what I meant to say.  I plan on picking up more third part games than anything at launch as none of Sony's day one exclusives seem as exciting as DR3, B4, Watch Dogs and AC4.  And before anyone says it, I know Dead rising 3 is an Xbox one exclusive, I'm getting both systems at launch.

Dead Rising 3 looks awesome but i hope they fix the framerate and the pop ins before launch.

Yeah It's a launch title.
I'm getting this most likely, COD, Ryse and Forza.

Gonna have a lot of fun with this.

Thank you very much. You don't mind if I post this in the official thread, Nsanity?

That phone thing is awesome.... I can already imagine myself being all tense in the game... phone rings.... big panic and major bitching going on lol...
That's what I expect from Kinect being a nice complement to the game experience with little things nothing more... like the flick commands or giving out orders, dialogue choices in RPG ... and RTS control...
Combined with surface and Kinect 2 and the power of the cloud... RTS could become sick on XB1

Looks... kinda like Dead Rising! A little!

Looks good despite the crappy video quality and the guy blocking 1/6th of the screen with his head.
