Looks good.  Question.  Will I be able to play this game withough finishing DR2?  I'm guessing the stories are not tied together.

 

I didn't finish DR2 when it was free.  Just got frustrated with that fat ass cook boss battle, and even though I finally beat him, I got frustrated again with the GOD AWEFUL save system.  So I stopped playing the game, and I am OK not picking it up again. 

I´m not qualified to give you an answer since I never played DR2, but from the little I know, DR3 has nothing to do with DR2..and even if I´m wrong, and if you do want to play it, will you stop yourself from playing DR3 just because of the story?

This a good point.  And now that I think back to DR2's story, I'm laughing that I asked the question in the first place.  DR2 STORY.  LOL!

It's looking great. Wasn't too interested in the lineup to begin with, but it helps that Ryse actually is good. Looked a bit too stiff for my taste at E3.

I'm wondering if I'm going to import it from UK this year instead of waiting. Does anyone know if there is some sort of stuff I'll miss out on if I choose to do so?

My opinion is that, just like Nintendo with Mario 3D World, they did a bad job when they showed the game for the first time.Now they´ve come a long way.

Yes you will be able to, If you haven't played it then theres no problem. But if you have played 1 and 2 some questions will be answered about them both in 3.

Just to expand on my point here, I guess good news for you...DR3 doesn´t have that punishing save system (doesn´t have that time limit either), unless you want it.

Yeah, that save system was pretty bad.  Glad to see they fixed it.  DR3 seems like a winner for some good launch day fun.
