One of the big gripes of the Anti-Zombie fanboys who love their ‘Dead Rising 2′ is that, inexplicably for a sandbox game, Capcom never provided them with a true sandbox mode, where they could soak their murderous hands in virtual Zombie blood without a pesky story, or objectives, or any sort of structure forcing them to pause in their mayhem for even a moment.

Well, Capcom has apparently remedied this for their newest ‘Dead Rising’ spinoff and it has one of the Zombie-haters at Kotaku drooling:

Forget Zombrex. There’s no helicopter on its way. It’s just you, thousands of zombies, hundreds of weapons, and all the time in the world to do whatever you’d like. Since the release of the original Dead Rising, fans have been clamoring for a way to just while away the hours exploring the sights, sounds, and smells of Capcom’s zombie wonderland. Now we’ll finally get our chance. Unfettered. Free.

Yes, apparently all this Michael Fahey ever wanted was the chance to slaughter an endless parade of Undead victims without a pesky narrative getting in the way of his bloodthirsty enjoyment.

Really?

Really.

Brother. Such is the state of journalism in our culture.

‘Dead Rising 2: Off the Record’ apparently comes out October 11th.
