Dead Rising 2: Case Zero

Let’s not kid ourselves, this isn’t that prequel that bridges the gap between Dead Rising and Dead Rising 2. DR2: Case Zero is a sandbox that demonstrates all the improvements that have been made from the first game.

The Multiplatform Conundrum

With the expense of videogame hardware going up in recent years, (and then back down a little) gamers have called for multiplatform support for all games. They can have their exclusive, bullshit DLC, but give us the game. Now, that I have both major platforms, I’m finding the opposite problem. For example, Metal Gear Solid [...]
