I know we cried wolf before, but that was for humor's sake. That other stuff? Definitely not even close to looking real, and even Capcom gave us sh*t for posting that.
This at least looks like something real, or the intro to something I'd like to play. Unfortunately, I don't know how much faith I can put into this being actual leaked footage. We will just call it now: it's a well-done fake...probably.
Nothing's clear enough to get a good look at. Some of the shots earlier in the video look just like the first Dead Rising. And the casino shots? That's my dream for a Dead Rising sequel, and I want it to be real, but they just don't feel legit to me.
We contacted Capcom for a comment, and I think I know what they're going to say.
What say you, Destructoid?

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
I hope they come barging in screaming "Yes! We know you want Dead Rising 2! So here is Dead Rising 2! ENJOY!"
Just puttin' it out there...
I didn't enjoy the first title that much, but here's to hoping they can pull off something new and special for the sequel.
My guess is that it'll be included in the Wii game, Bioshock 2 style. Somebody just took the video early.
I'm going to sleep now, dreaming and hoping that next day I look at Destructoid I can glee at the good news.
Also:
Isabella Keys is mentioned
At 42 seconds you can see frank(?) in a mega man suit
A 2 flashes on the screen at the end
Paradise Plaza can be seen, are we still in Willamete?
I'm getting strong "Capcom employee smuggles information" vibes.
That's an awesome trailer. The whole bootleg effect is really awesome. It fits pretty well too.
Its real, its gotta be, if we believe its real then it is but we have to believe.
Still, this has me wanting this more. But I'm not going to get my hopes up for a while.
It's real enough to where someone who probably doesn't actually speak japanese went to the trouble to type out "zombie" correctly in katakana at one point in the video.
I'd bet money on it being viral. Viral's all the rage these days with the kids and the whole "fake or not fake" and the loose legged pants and the Twilights and the Nirvanas and the AWWWW, to heck with the lot of ya.
If I'm wrong, all it will mean is that the guy who made it should be working in the industry, not wasting their time with fakes.
If they were to make it this year, much less announce it, this'll be the year of the Capcom.
She must have made more and published it.
"Hahahaha! So, we're just putting any random YouTube videos up now?"
Telling? ;)
