Can I Run Dead Rising 2: Off the Record?

Capcom Vancouver released Dead Rising 2: Off the Record in 2011. It is an action adventure game, published by Capcom. It offers a single player campaign and cooperative play. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. It carries 50 achievements. With more than 2 thousand player reviews on Steam, its behaviour on real hardware is well documented. Only some of the game is mapped to a controller. Critics scored it 66 on Metacritic. Steam gates it behind an age check at 17. At more than a decade old it predates every current graphics architecture, which helps compatibility and limits how well it exploits a modern card. The game ships for Windows alone. Steam lists support for 6 languages.
