Capcom's zombie-stomping game debuted on the to tremendous reception. To reward franchise supporters, the Japanese publisher released a paid prequel and recently announced DLC, both of which are exclusive to Microsoft's console.

While "feels sorry" that fans won't get the content, co-producer Shinsaku Ohara insists they are only missing out on a "little bit of extra."

"I think Inafune [Keiji, head of global R&D] said that we're sorry that it seems like you're getting a little bit less of the universe, but you'll still be able to enjoy the full game," Ohara told Eurogamer. "You'll just miss a little bit of extra. We haven't completely alienated PS3 gamers because Dead Rising 2 is a standalone boxed product."

Regardless of which platform gamers own, they'll be able to get their hands on Dead Rising 2 when it hits shelves later this week.
