Just yesterday, that Wii-loving bad boy Brad Nicholson posted some hot news on aninterview with Capcomstating thatDead Rising: Chop Till You Dropwill have more outfits that the original. Sad thing is, the interview doesn’t say exactly what those outfits will be. The 360 original featured a fullMega Man Xcostume (complete with Mega-Buster), as well as a creepy-cute Servebot mask that pretty much sold me on the game upon first sight.
Looks like Capcom is at that sort of in-game self-promotion again, but this time they’re using Dead Rising to promote a game that’s yet to be released. According to these scans,Dead Rising: Chop Till You Dropwill be the first game by Capcom where you can play as adreadlocks-sporting tough guywith a bionic arm. It’s a weird move, especially seeing as no “next-gen” version ofBionic Commandois coming to the Wii.
Is Capcom hoping that people who buyDead Rising: Chop Till You Dropwill love it so much that they not only buy a PS3/360 afterward, butBionic Commandoas well? Or even weirder, do they think that PS3/360 owners who currently don’t wantDead Rising: Chop Till You Dropwill see this outfit, and be so overcome with excitement forBionic Commandothat they’ll buyDead Rising: Chop Till You Drop anyway, just to virtual cosplay as Radd Spencer?
Ah, who cares! Just let me re-murder zombies by shaking a giant golden bell at them while wearing a oversized red pirate hat, and I promise this game will be a hit.
