Press release from Capcom.

THE DEAD WALK AGAIN AS CAPCOM CONFIRMS DEAD RISINGTM 2
Sequel to 1.5 million-plus seller announced for multiple gaming platforms
London – February 9, 2009 - Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today confirmed that Dead Rising™ 2 is in development for three different gaming platforms: the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Sony Computer Entertainment’s PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3™) and the PC. The sequel to the 1.5 million-plus selling Dead Rising™, Dead Rising 2 will take the franchise to a new level of zombie-killing fun with tens of thousands of zombies, the all new gambling paradise of Fortune City to explore and conquer plus a host of new in-game objects that can all be used as deadly weapons to stave off the zombie assault.

Brilliant news to end a rather bland day.

Hopefully they fix the save system, then bring on the zombies!

Then you can throw this into the mix.

I've barely started the first one, and that's with 20+ hours into it... I like the real time aspect, but it can be a bit much.

Yeah - Like when the game auto-saves when you don't have enough time to complete the goal? Thus forcing you to start the game again.
