The big announcements for me to come out of Captivate 2011?
Dead Rising 2: Off the Record and SSFIV Arcade coming to home consoles.
DR2: Off the Record
Frank West returns in a bizarre alternate retelling of the events of Dead Rising 2. Originally meant to be a director’s cut of the first game, the concept evolved into this bizarre mechanical overhaul where the photography from the first game is reintroduced and the narrative is totally mixed around. Will I pay to play the same-ish game again? Probably.
SSFIV Arcade
Yun, Yang, Oni, and Evil Ryu join the cast along with changes to the mechanics of the game.
The best part of this is that it’ll also be a $15 DLC pack. Thank god. I thought they were gonna lose everyone’s goodwill by making us buy another disc copy of the game. How weird is it that I’m complimenting Capcom for not being total jerks? In any case, I’m excited, even though I haven’t booted up SSFIV in ages. Get hype, y’all.
