Dead Rising 4 brings a lot of varied zombie-slaughtering fun to your living room but it also takes a couple of steps back for the series. Frank's return is a solid one that's definitely worth checking out.

Dead Rising 4 continues the idea of mainstream accessibility that started in Dead Rising 3. While the first two games were about watching the timer and making efficient choices, this is about killing zombies in silly costumes with cool weapons.

Dead Rising 4 is a fun game, the Christmas theme is fantastic and the online multiplayer is pretty fun as well, however being a good game does NOT make this a good Dead Rising game.

A different take on Dead Rising than most would expect, but it works better than you would think... Successfully takes a little from each game in the series, and does its best to give something for everyone.
