Dead Rising 2 devs' next game: Open world, maybe FPS photo

...and it probably lacks zombies.

Blue Castle is working on some unnamed open world Xbox 360 and PS3 title next. How do we know? Well, they're looking for help on the new title. In the job description for a Lead Level Designer, they drop a few clues.

" We are about to begin work on an exciting new Action project," they say. And later on, in the requirements, they ask for this: 

Be an expert on gaming trends and have your finger on the pulse of open world and FPS games like Prince of Persia, Assassins Creed, Halo, and everything in between.

That, to me, says that they're looking for someone well-versed, but it could also point to an open world and/or FPS title.

That's all we've got for now. We'll just have to use our imaginations for the time being.

Or maybe they'll make another lacklustre baseball game.

I'm in two minds about Dead Rising 2,

On the one hand I'm glad American developers are taking the helm... as developers in the west are much more in tune with our wants than most Japanese ones.

But on the other i'm worried a studio with a mediocre track record will fuck up the sequel to one of my favourite games this gen (the only game I've ever maxed out achievements for).

You must be shitting me about the 1000/1000 on Dead Rising. I refuse to believe it because that must have been BRUTAL.
That said I have 700-something. Truly a great game.

i can't wait for dr2, although i've always wanted an open world, zombie shooting survival game.

Like a zombie rpg type game, setting up defences, and strongholds, recruiting survivors, making/finding weapons etc

if i was to make a game it would be some kind of zombie survival mmo, that would be sick!

Just make sure you don't need an electron telescope to read the text in this game, and I'll be happy.
