So naturally, it runs like a dog even on well-specced hardware, something PC gamers aren’t used to. You’re not immune even if you’re lucky enough to have a high-end video card like a GeForce GTX 780 or a Radeon R9 290, as Microsoft has capped the frame rate at 30 frames per second to match the Xbox One version.
Until then it had been an Xbox One exclusive so it was my first time with the game, and I was unpleasantly surprised to find that the PC version suffers from the dreaded port-itis: the developers appear not to have put much effort into optimising it specifically for PC hardware. The zombie-slaying campy goodness that is Dead Rising 3 came out on Friday for the PC.
