Game bulletin Kotaku has it confirmed. Expect more zombie genocide! Details are heartening too! Despite the Dead Rising series' development shift west, Keiji Inafune is on still on-board as producer. While I don't doubt that Canadian studio Blue Castle Games can string some pulpy shuffle thrills together, key to the original's appeal was an aggressively forthright condemnation of American agricultural policy, and nationwide gluttony. No, seriously! Quite the coup for a Japanese studio's inaugural game on the 'States born 360 system eh? Inafune's game framed the American leads as over-ripe waddle-men desperately trying to keep a leg up on skinny rot hordes, and glamorous immigrant terrorists. I had worried that such concerns would be straight out the window when the franchise left Japan dev, but with Inafune aboard and the series scene shifting to that other monument to abasement: Las Vegas, signs are hopeful!
Shame Frank's no longer the lead. Guess he never did get that tank moving again.
