GDC 2009: Dead Rising 2 to Include The Most Rendered Characters Ever

During a GDC presentation by Izmeth Siddeek, the game’s character art lead, about the graphics engine powering Dead Rising 2, he said the following: "Dead Rising 2 deals with the rendering of the greatest number of characters ever seen in a video game.” This simply means that you will be seeing much more zombies on-screen at the same time than the last Dead Rising. Up to 6,000 zombies are allowed by the software to appear on-screen, making the fun level boost up high.
