Dead Rising turns 500,000 gamers into Xbox 360 zombies!
Capcom’s Dead Rising has become a surprise summer hit for the Xbox 360 by shipping half a million copies to stores. The Dawn of the Dead-influenced action game has received rave reviews all over, not surprising cause zombies rock. This all despite Dead Rising only being released in America so far. The European launch is set for September 8th, with Australia following on the 14th & its last release in Japan on the 28th.
“Response to Dead Rising from the trade, press and consumers has been tremendous,” said Charles Bellfield, VP of Marketing at Capcom, in the announcement release early this morning. “The success of the game is a result of Capcom’s recognition of Xbox 360 system’s possibilities and starting development early on in order to deliver such a high-quality game.” Via 1UP
