The combat in the game never gets old as there is always a new weapon to try out which makes for so many different ways to fight enemies depending on the weapon being used.

Pro Extended gameplay through side-missions and collectibles

Cons
Con Lacks polish
A few areas lack polish such as stuttering cut-scenes or skipped or cut off dialogue.
Con Dull, grey aesthetic
Yet another in the long line of brown and grey video games. This aesthetic may be tiresome to those that are sensitive to this type of design choice.
Con 30fps cap
Dead Rising 3 Apocalypse Edition has a 30fps cap placed in the game by the devs (most likely being that this is a lazy port) that can be uncapped by editing an .ini file. Though once uncapped it is extremely difficult to get a stable 60fps, even on the most high end of systems.
