Dead rising 2 multiplayer fully confirmed

Keiji Inafune, Capcom’s R&D man, has confirmed there is indeed going to be multiplayer in Dead Rising 2, despite the recent denial.

“We’re at a point in game history that you need to have some form of multiplayer component in a game,” Inafune told journalists at Captivate 09 in Monaco last week.
“Single-player alone is not going to cut it. So rest assured we are going to put multiplayer in the game, but I can’t go into specifics about what type of multiplayer as that directly relates to some of the game systems that we don’t want to talk about at this event. It will be online multiplayer, so keep that in mind.”

Inafune previewed a whole hour of play on the zombie-romp, and did a show and tell of the game’s ability to have 7000 zombies on-screen at once.
