Console launch, console launch. 1080p, 60-fps, RAM, jaggies, performance, visuals, controller, voice and face recognition... the list of items to talk about goes on and on with this 'next-gen', but very little seems to focus on gameplay.
Dead Rising 3 lacks in so many buzzwordy areas of this new console launch period, yet it nails gameplay like it's been doing it for years. Oh wait, it has. If you can look past the technical shortcomings you might find a veritable zirconia in the rough with Dead Rising 3 -- it's not the prettiest game on the block, but no one said killing thousands and thousands of zombies was going to be a clean job, did they?

Honestly, I actually feel like Dead Rising 3 is the most "next-gen" in terms of just the sheer size of the game and its AI zombies. Each zombie is casting off a shadow, most likely pulls from a pool of AI commands and interact in different ways to the player. Not to mention all the explosions and chaos you can cause with some weapons, I was really surprised to only see dips in framerate on very few occasions when fighting the massive horde.
Overall, this game is one I would definitely recommend to any Xbox One owner. I've barely touched any game, be it GTA or Steam because I've just been so wrapped up in the world of Dead Rising 3.
