My god I have mixed feelings about this. On the first hand, the port was terrible on release with people with GTX 780's getting horrible framerate. It was really frustrating. I couldn't touch it for the first 2 weeks or so because of how bad the port was. Then a driver update from Nvidia came and I was able to get a pretty good framerate. So I have no idea how to feel about the port. It's stable enough that I was able to beat the game and all 4 untold stories however and I believe I only crashed twice.

The main game is awesome, story's a bit short though. People recommended that If I've played every Dead rising game, that I should play nightmare mode because it's the closest you get to the DR experience. I'm not so sure, as the other games, while strict time limits, they still allowed you to be able to do side missions and explore. In this mode, the time limit is 4 times faster then the normal game, so you might have some time to do some side missions at first, but later on, you'll have to ignore them in order to finish the game on time. I cut it real close, I had 0 hours left when I reached the end (Not counting overtime mode) so yeah, If you're a completionist, don't do nightmare mode unless you have a friend with you at ALL times.

Anyway, do your research. The port is nowhere near perfect and was bringing Titans and 780's to their knees on release day. But if you're a Deadrising fan, I'd suggest giving it a go, and bringing a friend with you.
