@dynamitecop: I mean, all this rumor has to go on that PS4 achievements showed up, doesn't mean it'd be exclusive to PS4, after all Capcom has been all about the remakes lately and they'd sell themselves short not to at least make this multiplatform, I'd expect it all the same to show up on Xbox One too. The original game did show up on the Wii, almost such a poor substitute of a port it almost doesn't count, but it's there. I don't see why they couldn't port the original to the current gen systems.
I to some extent at least hope it's true. Again I'd expect it to be multiplatform, but even if for some reason they made DR1 a PS4 exclusive, at least it'd help bolster an acceptance for the series. IMO it appears DR3 really got thrown under the bus by many, and it was a fantastic game that was just tons of fun to play, but because of its association with MS/Xbox everybody shat on it every chance they got, even though I'd argue it was maybe the best launch title of any of the three current gen consoles. So, maybe if PS4 gamers at least get to dabble in some Dead Rising action, maybe gamers and critics won't be so quick to shit all over DR4 when it releases as a XBO console exclusive, timed or not.
At the same time though, I too think it'd be stupid of MS not to try to make this series synonymous with Xbox exclusives. I don't know if they're trying to buy exclusivity to the franchise, or handling this on a game-by-game basis. But hey, either way, first and foremost, I just want to see more releases in this series.
