Capcom hints at Dead Rising for PS3

In an Official PlayStation Blog post by John Diamonon of Capcom, it is hinted that Dead Rising may be coming to the PlayStation 3.

In response to a comment about the possibility of Capcom bringing the Dead Rising to Sony's system, Diamonon wrote, "You haven’t seen the last of Dead Rising."

Could this mean that a port of the original title is on the way? Or perhaps Capcom will be developing the sequel as a multiplatform game. Either would be sure to please fans hoping that the series would make it onto a PlayStation platform in some form or another.

According to the March issue of EGM, Capcom handed the development of Dead Rising 2 to a Los Angeles-based developer, and the title is supposedly being developed for multiple platforms. We'll have more for you on Dead Rising soon.

    I'd buy it just to mock the 360... that, and kill thousands of zombies :)

    Its a good game.. i just wish they'd either confirm it or deny it completely. No if's or but's. And to me having Dead Rising on the Wii is a kick in the teeth to PS3 owners.. we're the ones that have been jumping up and down about getting it, and they end up handing it over to a family-friendly platform that no one on it even care about. Its like between three friends, one handing the last beer over to the guy that doesnt even want it when the other friend is going "me, yeah i want it! Over here.. yep here" - almost like in spite of the other guy (in this case... PS3)

    Comment 4 :

    Wow, that's pretty radical.   If I found out you bought this game on PS3 to mock the 360, damn, I guess I'd just have to sell my 360 and just make do with my PS3.    

    Please make sure you post a comment on the forum so I know when I've been mocked.

    I don't have an Xbox 360, wish I do but got a PS3 because of MGS4 and this news about hinting a Dead Rising being ported or a sequel being multiplatform would be nice.

    I heard in one of my Playstation magazines that they were developing DR2 for X360 and PS3. Playstation official magazine-UK, Issue 21 August (Has killzone on frontcover) on page 31 but it was on a rumour section though.

    Dead Rising is not the key zombie killer game for the PS3, i think that Left 4 Dead will be much better on the system.

    i'd buy it.

    I played this on my 360 and disliked it, but mainly that it was a pain to save.

    Why is everyone getting excited for a game that is over 2yrs old??? I mean would I like to play it?? Yes I would but I am not jumping up and down saying "Yes Yes Yes Finally coming to us!!!!!!" I mean if I really wanted to play I would have rented it and gone over to my brother in law's place to play it.. Also what are they going to charge for it???  $50, $60??? Or are they going to drop it down to the 29.99 mark?? Cause that is the only way I would purchase it...

    More than likely their porting the sequel and ignoring the original Dead Rising release for the PS3. In which case it's a pass. If they can't be bothered to give me the original, then I can't be bothered with sequelitis.
