* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The game utilizes reflections to a degree that is still uncommon in big budget games today. Not only are there fully working mirrors, even regular glass windows will provide partial reflections. If you wear mirror sunglasses, you can see in cutscenes that they actually have reflections that match the environment.

* WolverinePublicity: Despite the games operating on an "anthology" method of every new game taking place in a new setting with a new protagonist, Frank West is seen as the "face" of ''Dead Rising'', so much so in that he's usually the representative of the series [[VideoGame/TatsunokoVsCapcom in]] [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 cross]][[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcomInfinite over]] [[VideoGame/ProjectXZone games]], had a story DLC for ''VideoGame/DeadRising2'' based around him with ''Case West'', got his own spin-off, WhatIf scenario version of that game with ''Off the Record'', and became the protagonist of ''VideoGame/DeadRising4'', even returning to Willamette.

* AccidentalInnuendo: [[CallAHitPointASmeerp Instead of Experience Points]], the series has Prestige Points, or PP for short, which is also used as slang for a penis. Considering that you can get PP by taking photos of women's cleavage and underwear, this becomes hilarious.

* HarsherInHindsight: The erotica photo element requires Frank to take pictures of a woman's crotch and cleavage to complete the mission "Photo Challenge".

Especially when one of the ways you can gain high prestige points for erotica is to take pictures of the hostages in "Above the Law", who were implied to have been sexually assaulted by Jo Slade. The achievement "Frank the Pimp" requires the player to escort 8 female survivors simultaneously, slanderously implying that 8 traumatized women (4 of whom might actually be survivors of sexual assault if they were Jo Slade's captives) are prostitutes for simply being in the presence of a man.
