Capcom announced that the Xbox 360 exclusive Case West addition to Dead Rising 2 will be releasing in December – word on what day is still lacking.
Teaming Chuck with Dead Rising’s Frank West offers access to Frank’s camera for all your photo taking needs, along with new combo weapons and items. Perhaps more importantly, Capcom mentions that players going through the game solo will take control of Chuck, while Frank will be AI controlled, a mode in which Frank cannot be killed. As for deciding who gets to be Frank in co-op mode, I recommend rock, paper, scissors.
Seems cheesy that you can’t choose who to be in Solo Mode. :\ Which also gives me little reason to buy this seeing I play Solo and would only find this useful if I could play as Frank.

It is odd for sure. I read that line in the pr a few times hoping I was reading it wrong, but that’s what it says :/

Well, its a 360 exclusive so I won’t be able to play it but it does seem odd that you can’t play as Frank on Solo.

Yeah… well it might as well be a PS3 exclusive seeing it’s rather useless to me anyhow. Disappointed really.
