Capcom will unveil both Dead Rising 2 and Lost Planet 2 for PS3 at the Tokyo Game Show 2007.Previously these games were XBox 360 exclusive and 30FPS. Now that they’re coming to PS3 expect a nice bump in framerate to 60FPS and if Capcom aren’t too lazy to harness the power of CELL + RSX then 1080p could be on the cards too.
Word is leaking from Capcom today that Dead Rising 2 could be making a brief appearance at TGS later this month.
No word on whether or not this will be on the show floor, or behind closed doors but we’ll be sure to bring you more information on the title as and when we get it. Other information is coming forward claiming that Dead Rising 2 will not in fact be a 360 exclusive like the first title was and may be coming to PS3 as well.

seeing as you have no source and I couldnt find anything else about it Im am going to have to say that this is completely false. If it was true, you wouldnt be the only people reporting it.
Last anyone has heard, as far as I can tell, Dead rising 2 isnt even in development
First of all, the mention about Lost Planet was speculation. Second of all, sources about DR2 suggest the developer is in talks with Capcom about making it, that nothing has been comfirmed for Xbox360, let alone PS3. Also, who cares if DR2 is coming to PS3, because I know I personally don’t give a hoot. I have a 360, and I owned the original, but its certainly not going to sell PS3′s off the shelf. It was a decent game but it expired quickly. If you think that getting either/both of those games is going to make up for the fact that PS lost the exclusivity for Devil May Cry, Ace Combat, Katamari Damacy, GTAIV (The time release) and even Assassin’s Creed. The problem is, is that Sony (much like this website) thinks itself above the everyone else, that the developers should beg Sony to allow them to make games, but the truth is that the PS3 isnt moving consoles, not even in Japan, and the PS3 needs to learn that they better be prepared to do some seriously knob slobbing for these developers, because Microsoft is bending backwards to sell hardware and software, and it shows.

The Wii is kicking ass, but Microsoft is still in there. Where’s PS3? Too busy blowing lines of Japanese coke out of hooker’s crack. Doesn’t look like they’re showing up to contend.
You edited the article to include a source, good for you! Too bad its not a reputable source isnt it?
I just read your source again, you totally deserve the passing-off-speculation-as-fact merit badge
You should probably change the headline to “Someone says they saw Capcom glancing at the edge of the ship – Xbox to keep its current exclusives while their sequels may be multiplatform”
Honestly – at some point, don’t the journalism gods come down and smite you?
PROTIP: In order for a console to “lose” an exclusive, that game actually has to be published for another console. You’re talking about sequels.
Firstly, I’ve never registered on a site before just to post a comment. I just had to in this case.
I only found this posting after looking at our web stats and seeing SDF as a referrer.
At no point in my original post was this information stated as fact. It’s all rumor, speculation and industry whispers. Nothing has been announced by either party. You have totally twisted the post out of all recognition in order to provoke a fanboy flame war. The internet is hoaching with them already and using tactics like that is just laughable.
@Fatman
Yes, we are a new website and probably not seen as a ‘reputable’ source as you say. We are however trying to make a name for ourselves as a trusted source though. Hopefully our reporting on this particular subject goes some way to showing that.
That’s all.
Yes Yes, those are games are good, but not good enouf to buy a 360 for it but since they coming to the ps3 i get to buy them Thanks Capcom
PS3UP, no, their not, we are talking about their sequals which may or may not even be in development
Didn’t inafune himself say that DR2 wasn’t being made because he was doing other stuff?
@uberdave
I think so, some time last month if I remember right
Haha, the funniest thing is that when you guys try to “spin” this news, you always seem to quote the original source that contradicts what you just wrote.
I love this site.
Can’t wait for the SDF Lair review… GAME OF THE YEAR!!! LMAO.
“This is just in: Some games developers have not said anything about changing platforms, but we need some to distract the public from how shit Lair turned out to be.”
60 fps? You mean the speed that Madden plays on the 360? Gotchya. I really doubt this article, simply because Capcom has made it pretty obvious that they are a larger supporter of the 360 (hence the Lost Planet and Dead Rising excusive and the fact they are bringing Devil May Cry 4 and Resident Evil 5 to the xbox for the first time.) It’s possible that some of these exclsuives maybe coming to the PS3, butI doubt it untill it increases its install base… (Which it really hasnt… What, 4 million consoles? 3rd place in the console war?) Maybe Capcom should release new games for the PS2 and ditch the PS3 altogether. Thats what I would do.
@ Bleem
I just read your commect. I realize that it was clearly a rumor when you posted it, but it somehow made the transistion to fact when it came over here.
I didnt mean to slam your site, by reputable I meant sites like IGN and gamespot. Your site has a nice start, much better than this place(which isnt saying much, really)
Sigh.. the RSX isn’t more powerful than a 6800.. when will people learn. PC FTW
So what if DR2 and LP2 comes to the PS3? Without the prequals they would never even come to the 360/PC and there for even more less to the PS3 so who cares. Now IF the games come AT ALL and it’s multiplatform I can just say too bad that you never lived the first game which often is the better one imo (few exceptions though).

fool ur fucken stupid, assassin’s creed is coming out for ps3 dumbfuck, and GTA IV is gonnnna be way better on ps3 than gay 360, stfu, i hate ppl like u, ur fucken stupid and u need to
Lost Planet is crap anyway. Enjoy it if you get it because 360 owners can’t stand it.
Same for Dead Rising, nice concept but was utter garbage.
Good luck in having moderately tweaked sequels to horrible games.
UK31337, i challenge you to a duel for insulting dead rising, but yea lost planet was crap, the ending was so bad i think it gave me cancer
but i love how the source even says its a rumor and does not give any real proof of the rumor just claims by “certain people” a.k.a. jealous fanbois
The sources are bullshit, the only game that’s been semi confirmed is Dead Rising 2 and only for the 360.
Here’s a source:
http://digg.com/gaming_news/Dead_Rising_2_confirmed_now_under_development_for_Xbox_360
[...] We told you so. [...]
If these games hadn’t been announced on PS3 you’d have whined about how shit they were, and made up some “facts”.
Losers.
