With all of the new additions revealed for Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, it's really starting to seem like the folks at Capcom weren't lying when they said it would still pack a lot of extra value even for those who already have Dead Rising 2.

The game's getting pretty close to its October release, so perhaps it's time to look at what's new in it. As detailed in a fact sheet recently released by Capcom, Dead Rising 2: Off the Record will differ from the game it's based on in the following ways:

• Frank West is back – The original Dead Rising hero returns to get the scoop on the Fortune City outbreak.
• Fortune City but not as you know it – Experience a re-interpretation of the Fortune City outbreak through the eyes and camera of photojournalist Frank West.
  • New story and missions unique to Frank West
  • New environments
  • New enemies and more psychotic Psychos
  • New crazy and hilarious combo-weapons
  • New items and vehicles
• Say “Cheese!” – Capture those classic, violent, scary, hilarious Dead Rising moments, earn Prestige Points and complete all new missions with Frank’s new and improved camera feature.
• Upgraded Experience – Full of technical improvements, system enhancements and feature upgrades to create a faster, smoother, more satisfying Dead Rising.

Frank's camera will once again let players gain Prestige Points by for specific photo opportunities that are graded against criteria such as horror, drama, erotica and brutality. Some of them will show up as challenges in the game's time limit-free Sandbox mode.
