    Dead Rising 3 was one of my most anticipated games of 2013 but it really disappointed me. Its got a really average story filled with cliches, the characters are really dull and lifeless, but the gameplay sort of saves this game. The gameplay is fun but not great, the combo weapons are very over the top and unrealistic. I hate the vehicle combos, they feel so unnecessary and pointless.Dead Rising 3 was one of my most anticipated games of 2013 but it really disappointed me.

Dead Rising 3 still manages to feel like a Dead Rising game but its very flawed. Expand

    game that I thought I would not like but that I think is the best dead rising they have ever done. good open world with good combination of main missions with psychopaths, a good story and the most important of this game with many great zombies combination of weapons to be able to kill them in many different ways

    Dead Rising 3 consegue se resumir em poucas palavras: Quanto maior, melhor.
    Com uma cidade enorme para se explorar, centenas de zumbis na tela, gráficos lindos e uma grande variedade de armas e combinações, Dead Rising 3 conseguiu melhorar em muitos aspectos se comparado aos seus antecessores, com grandes mudanças na jogabilidade, por exemplo. Porém, o que pode incomodar

Porém, o que pode incomodar muitos fãs mais antigos e assíduos são os mais novos psicopatas, além do arsenal de armas; que ''ingame'' podem ser impressionantes, mas não tão variadas como em Dead Rising e suas combinações não tão criativas como em Dead Rising 2.

    Bueno juego de zombies. Es ante todo divertido, que es la finalidad de un videojuego. Además, está doblado al castellano. Lo peor la gráficos, va a 720p y no está mejorado para x.

    A solid and fun zombie game experience. I would definitely recommend this game to zombie genre lovers even in 2020.

    Tiene buena variedad de objetos, armas y combinaciones, la nueva forma de poder combinar objetos donde sea mejora a poder terminar las misiones más rápido. Los autos es algo nuevo que no llega a sentirse como una buena implementación

    Dead Rising 3 wraps up the original story for the series and it does so in an epic way and leaves no loop holes in the series. It had the second strongest story after Dead Rising 2 and it is a very good game. It was the last game made by the original Capcom Vancouver team cause Dead Rising 4 was made by a separate branch.

It took me awhile to get into this game cause a lot of the magic that Inafune gave the series is gone since he left by the time this game was being made. I'm someone that has 100%ed every Dead Rising game on 360 and I adore this series. While Dead Rising 3 was a launch game for last gen, it still holds up today. The map takes a little getting used to as there's roadblocks when the city was quarantined and there are crashed vehicles everywhere, but I came to appreciate the map. This game truly feels like a larger scale Dead Rising game and I really enjoy Nick and his character progression. The combo weapons and collectibles are great and I also enjoy the survivor quests. While psychopaths are goofy, they still are fun to fight and are better than Maniacs from the fourth game. I highly recommend this game even if you didn't like the earlier games cause the timer is incredibly relaxed. You have 7days in game and that's plenty of time to mess around and play at your own pace. I messed around a lot and completed all of the survivor and psychopath quests while doing the story and I had 2 days left in game before the bombs were to be dropped. This was the last good Dead Rising game in my opinion and you can find it for $10 in most places. I played this on Xbox One X and the graphics and zombies are still amazing to this day. The detail in killing zombies isn't something that I see in other zombie games cause they can be missing half of their chest, their head, or legs, and they still try to harm you. Expand

    Aunque muchos lo describen como un mal sucesor de la saga, el estilo oscuro le da un aire fresco a la saga, agregando el concepto de los autos combo ademas de que mejoraron todos los aspectos técnicos que tenían, el punto negativo es que ya no le dieron importancia a sus personajes y redujeron el nivel de profundidad de los psicópatas.

    *Reviewed on Xbox Series X*

    Dead Rising 3 is fun and genuinely entertaining. Its packed with open world shenanigans and silly/humorous side quests. The story is interesting and should motivate most who play to the very end. Some may not enjoy the tone as this game takes itself less seriously than previous entries(if you can believe it, as silliness permeates through the franchise).

    Some may not enjoy the tone as this game takes itself less seriously than previous entries(if you can believe it, as silliness permeates through the franchise). Nick also lacks personal motivation and is generally less interesting than Frank or Chuck, although I did enjoy him as a character overall.

    Technically, the game suffers from graphical issues including weird aliasing. There are very noticeable huge jagged squares, especially in up-close character shots in cutscenes.

    Design-wise, there were some odd choices when it comes to the third person camera. It is way too zoomed in and Nick is always blocking the players view. Annoying.

    Gripes aside, I believe Dead Rising 3 to be a good game game, and a worthy entry in the Dead Rising franchise.

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    A fun, wild waste of time that doesn't really live up to its predecessors.

    Get ready for a new generation of zombie-slaying thrills where there's only minimal gameplay to get in the way of the thrills!

    Out of all the Xbox One launch titles Dead Rising 3 is definitely the most entertaining. There's no denying that mowing down crowded streets full of zombies isn't a guilty pleasure. What Dead Rising 3 lacks, though, is next generation visuals. The game could easily pass as a fancy looking Xbox 360 title. [Feb 2014]
