Discover the Secrets of Dead Rising 2 and Gaze at the Boxart

Capcom has just unveiled the official box art for Dead Rising 2, the upcoming two player co-op zombie slaying game set to hit the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC this September.  As you can see the customizable weapon system is front and center with a chainsaw boat oar kind of thing that's sure to make a mess of some poor zombies head.   There's also a guy in a tuxedo wearing a Servbot helmet.  So awesome.

Along with the box art is a new website called Tape It Or Die.  The site follows the exploits of Lance, Gretchen, Wallace and Johnny Pipe as they try obtain tickets for the hottest show in town, Terror is Reality XVII.  Signing up for an account and playing along promises to bring exclusive looks at Dead Rising 2.  It's a site that I think would make Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor proud.

Is it known yet if the coop will be sharescreen or splitscreen?

Well online mode is confirmed, and I hope we can play it in LAN or System Link.

And I've read this news yesterday, but it has a big story. Capcom Europe twittered days before this, that "A big announcement is coming!!!", then every day "X days until the adventure begins!". Everyone (like me) was VERY excited. We even tried to figure out what could it be, what games are "adventurous" that Capcom made.

...then they hinted something: "TAPE". Not many knew what it's going to be, but I said it's either Dead Rising 2 or a Resident Evil game. Resident Evil because in the older versions you could save the game by getting videotapes and such. Dead Rising 2 because as they say in almost every video "You can TAPE together two objects". Since there will be Dead Rising 2 - Case Zero, and most demos and DLC-s arrive on PSN and Live! on Thursdays, I was hoping for the best, like everyone else I mentioned these things.

But NOOOOO, the "big adventure" was a new website that I and most people will never visit, and a collector's edition which I and most people will never buy. Great job Capcom for making such a "huge" announcement...

Yeah, the game is coming to PC as well. A lot of Capcom games do. But I can't find any info on WHEN it's coming out for PC. Amazon doesn't even have it listed.

Everywhere where I've read that it's coming to PC said that it will come the same day when it arrives on consoles. Let's hope it will be like that, and let's hope it'll have LAN Co-op. Then I know what I'll play with my bro

EDIT:
No, this package doesn't come out on the PC (this Collector's Edition-thingy)
