Capcom apparently doesn't want us or anyone else knowing the launch date for upcoming Dead Rising budget spinoff, Dead Rising 2: Off the Record (http://www.joystiq.com/game/dead-rising-2-off-the-record).
Though the Japanese publisher's European blog posted details of the game's release date recently -- October 11 in North America and October 14 in Europe, by the way -- the post has since been pulled. Thankfully, some quick Googling (http://www.google.com/search?q=Frank+West+returns+to+the+zombie+slaying+ madness+in+Dead+Rising+2%3A+Off+The+Record+on+14+O ctober) reveals that the post did in fact exist at one point.

It's always possible that the release dates were incorrect, but we're more inclined to believe it was simply posted before someone important said, "Go ahead." We've asked Capcom for confirmation, but haven't heard back as of yet.

Curious to see where this takes place, considering how case west ended. Hopefully they will keep the MP factor involved which I can't see why not i'm happy

Off the Record is a re-imagining of Dead Rising 2. Frank West is being interviewed and says "You know if I was there things would have gone a lot differently." And that's pretty much what the game is. It tells the story of 2 but if Frank West was there instead of Chuck Green. I think this game is going to be amazing! It also has a new area to the mall, it's an amusement park called Uranus Zone. There will be new combo cards and such like combining a horse stick and rocket, you will impale them with it, they shoot up in the air, and explode in a colorful display of pretty lights and zombie blood everywhere.
