One of my early favorites on the Xbox360 has finally received the sequel it deserves: Dead Rising 2!
I caught the news over on MTV’s Multiplayer blog. Kotaku first broke the news last year, and it was particularly notable for me because of a nerdy sidenote: In the president’s video, right under his copy of Dead Rising, you can clearly see a stack of Vagabond manga. I don’t know if the game’s going to be good but I sure as hell trust the guy. You might say I kind of like Vagabond.

The screenshots depicted on MTV’s post raise an eyebrow. So the game’s going to take place in a casino, okay. There’s a lot of stuff at a casino, I guess. I hope I get to throw cards at zombies. The visuals are clearly better as well, though those could easily be bullshots, since none of them are from gameplay. I can hope, though, right?
Where’s Frank? Who’s the blonde guy? I don’t think he’s covered wars, you know. Or taken erotic zombie photos, for that matter! He might be Frank, who knows? Either way, I’m definitely looking forward to this.
