Magazine predicts Dead Rising co-op

360 Rumour | Violently smash in the skulls of the undead - TOGETHER.

As you'll know if you've read our review, we thought Capcom's Xbox 360 debut Dead Rising was rather swish. Now, if a recent rumour printed in US games rag EGM has any truth to it, the zombie-packed hit is about to receive a rather nifty update, one that will allow owners of the game to play in co-op. EGM speculates that this update will be accessible in one of two ways - either as a download from Xbox Live, or as part of a a platinum edition of the game.

It wasn't mentioned whether the rumoured new mode would be playable offline or online (or both), and we're still waiting for Capcom to confirm it even exists. Count us in if it does, though.

Yeah nice, prefer them to work hard on Dead Rising 2 though and add a full co-op feature for the whole game implementing 2-player goals.

Imagine if they had a simuation where one player gets put in a set piece to survive an onsault of zombie, while the 2nd player rushes to their aid.

If this rumour comes to eventuality I'll be so happy!
Co-op , split screen or two people on one screen...all is good in my books.

Hope they update it with some new 2 people props also like a mall kart where one person drives the other smashes away with a baseball bat etc.
Or
One person grabs a spool of chain from the hardware store and the other person grabs the end of the chain and go clotheslining on mass.

*fingers crossed*

Yeah I read about this, apprently you gotta pay for update otherwise buy the platinum version. I'm all for the co-op looks good, would nice if they had new guys other than 2 Frank Wests, maybe Resident evil characters, Adam West..I dunno.

If it is true, i will rebuy this game. Would be so much fun with a friend online mowing down all those zombies. The game is quite hard single player and i dont really like games which are single player only. the achievements would be fun to get with a mate too.
