We must do the happy dance!


Zombie-photographer Frank West must be doing the happy dance by now. Taking some choice cuts fresh from the live corpse of retail-landia, Capcom just announced that with six months under their Dead Rising belt they've already shipped one million copies since its launch. In the entire line-up of Capcom's titles (including other zombiefest games like Resident Evil), Dead Rising is the 41st title to hit the one-million mark.

It must be mentioned that while Dead Rising is part of their new long-term project of creating games with a global audience in mind, senior executive Mark Beaumont is actually expecting Lost Planet to outsell the zombie-basher. You could arguably say so, but whether or not it actually does, we'll find out once the planetary FPS gets released in North America and Europe on the 12th of this month.

As for now, on to more bloody limb-crunching and happy dances with a Servbot mask from the Child's Play department...

» Great Game, Well deserves the million..

Dead Rising is a great game, its really fun and exciting although the save system is really bad. Dead Rising 2 will most likely happen and mark my words " IT WILL BE AN XBOX 360 EXCLUSIVE ". Dead Rsing was a 360 exclusive and im pretty sure sequel will be too...
