    There is a lot to love about Dead Rising 3’s latest DLC. For $10 it is impossible not to recommend to Xbox One owners who still have the game, especially those with a fondness for classic Capcom titles.

    Thankfully the game is a lot of fun!

    More of the same goofy, eccentric zombie-killing action Dead Rising fans love, sprinkled with Capcom callouts. [Sept 2014, p.96]

    The Super Ultra Dead Rising 3 Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX Plus Alpha DLC is a nice addition to a very solid core game.

    Super Ultra Dead Rising 3 Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX Plus Alpha is pure fanservice. Simple and effective gameplay, has a great co-op mode and has also a lovely soundtrack.

    Capcom clearly had a lot of fun designing this DLC, as even the title pokes fun at its tendencies and strategies throughout the years. While it's clear that the company has let more than a few of fans down over the years, every so often it has been known to surprise people, and this is one of those occasions.

    An ambitious game that’s fun while it lasts. Unfortunately, it lasts a little too long, especially if you’re dying to see what Annie looks like dressed up as a Breath of Fire character.

    Capcom loves Capcom and this is what you're gonna find out playing this strange and fascinating DLC. But if you plan to play it alone, think twice, as it could turn out to be a rather boring experience.

    A funny cooperative DLC that will appeal to both zombie killers and nostalgic gamers of the classic era of Capcom.

    It's fun for a while, but it really lacks variety. If you love Capcom, the cameos will entertain you much more than gameplay.

    You need to understand and revel in a bonus level that involves nothing more than destroying a car in order to fully grasp why this DLC is special.

    In many ways, it's a spiritual sibling to Far Cry 3's Blood Dragon expansion. Both are fuelled by a heady brew of nostalgia and adrenalin, and both have tongue so firmly implanted in cheek that it bursts out the other side. Where Blood Dragon built to a manic crescendo, however, after the first few hours SUDR3ARHEEXPA too easily turns into a fun but flawed grind for all but the most dedicated Capcom aficionado.

    Super Ultra Hyper Remix Dead Rising 3 Arcade Edition EX Plus Alpha is a journey into the past that traces all the masterpieces of Capcom. Unfortunately, the result is repetitive gameplay, though things improve if the campaign is played in coop.

The DLC is short, rather boring, and feels like it was a design school grad project. It panders to a community without actually giving them anything to really play. It would have been great if instead of just some costumes, they gave us a larger variety of levels to play, like a Mega Man themed side scrolling level, or perhaps a top town shooter payin homage to the 1940 series. No instead you get some cheap powerups, silly costumes, and a stage to beat up a car. All things that were already in DR3.

    If you liked Dynasty Warriors, this might be for you. If you like games that have substance, this is not for you. You can't even wear the costumes in the original game! This DLC was done of the cheap to try to make DR3 profitable. Refusing to make this part of the season pass ensures that no one will play this pointless expansion that adds nothing to the game.

    THIS is what the DLC should have been from day 1! Not the single player stuff. It's 4 player fun with tons of stuff to unlock. Sadly thisTHIS is what the DLC should have been from day 1!
