Five minutes into Dead Rising 4's intro sequence, the action is as satisfying as it is ridiculous. The opening kicks off with hero Frank West trapped inside a bad dream straight out of Nightmare on Elm Street. He's wakes up inside a recreation of the Willamette mall surrounded by zombie hordes. But look closer and you'll see the storefronts have names like "Failure" and "No One Likes Your Dumb Pictures Anyway," a telltale sign that the tough-guy photojournalist still has many insecurities despite his typically flippant attitude.
To make matters worse, he's confronted inside of the bad dream by a ghastly vision of himself. Ghost Frank spits out taunts that harken back to the silly dialogue and discoveries Frank made back in the first Dead Rising. It's a self-deprecating intro, but one that still manages to offer a peek at what's to come. As Frank carves through packs of zombies, his weapons change whenever he catches up with his ghostly tormentor. "We wanted to give people a chance right off the bat to try out some of our combo weapons and just have some fun," executive producer Bryce Cochrane explains, as we thrash through the pack and dwell deeper into Frank's tormented subconscious.
