Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster Review

As a high schooler in 2006, I spent many months and what little money I had renting screen time with an Xbox 360 in a mall store that had dozens of TVs and consoles available for use at hourly rates. Several visits and two years later, I’d saved up enough money to buy myself the console, no longer willing to be only a part-time player of the game I’d wanted: Capcom’s Dead Rising. Nearly 20 years since then, it’s been entertaining to discover that it still holds up as an endearing, open-world zombie game that undoubtedly has its flaws. Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster isn’t a new entry in the series I hope we one day get, but it’s a fun return to the roots of a series that has a unique voice and, for better and worse, strange design choices.
