* CutsceneIncompetence: In one cutscene, Nick tries to fight one of the Spec Ops in hand-to-hand and gets instantly curbstomped (as you'd expect from an untrained mechanic going up against a professional soldier). In gameplay, you'll slaughter those guys by the dozens.
** Of course, that merely sets up a scene further down the game where Nick is caught unarmed by another Spec Ops soldier and [[TookALevelInBadass promptly takes the soldier apart.]]
*** In cutscenes you will regularly be overpowered, blindsided, sucker-punched, ambushed and beaten regardless of the fact that you're probably a walking arsenal and the zombie apocalypse scenario pretty much demands good situational awareness to survive. Seriously, you will learn to dread the game taking control away from you.

** Harry "Zhi" Wong, the Psychopath of Wrath, is angered by loud noises, and will become momentarily stunned if you hit one of the gongs in his garden.
** Darlene Fleischermacher, the Psychopath of Gluttony, will be angered if you try to eat some of her food. You can eat this food to restore some health if you run out of food items, but you'll vomit it all back up if you eat too much and don't press the button prompt in time.
** Kenny Dermot, the Psychopath of Envy, will become jealous if you build a combo weapon, causing him to throw a fit and become vulnerable to attacks.
** Jherri Gallo, the Psychopath of Pride, will become upset if you counter her grabs, and will go to a mirror and start exercising to rebuild her pride. This leaves her vulnerable to grapple attacks.
** Dylan Fuentes, the Psychopath of Lust, may request you to pole dance for him. Fulfilling that request will arouse him and leave him exposed to grapple attacks.

Why would Carlito keep a list of names if none of them are the real names? Why change it when he was so hell bent on revenge? He would want people to know. And he wouldn't keep a list of changed names. It just makes no sense. It's just a plot hole on DR 3's part.


* SeriesContinuityError: [[spoiler:Neither Nick nor Diego's names appear in the [[http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120503185947/deadrisinggame/images/7/78/CarlitosList.jpg list of orphans]] that Carlito infected, unless they changed their names, which Isabella implies when she says "Nick? Is that what they call you now?". Also, if going by the numbered tattoos, both genders listed for Nick ("Number 12") and "Number 4" are shown to be female, although there's the possibility that they both changed sexes.]]
** [[spoiler:It's also possible that the names on the list were faked. Carlito wouldn't really like someone to interfere with his plans if anyone could find the file and use it to find the orphans in time.]]

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Many of the side characters and psychopaths are walking stereotypes who order Nick around, shout slurs and insults, and treat women like things to possess. If the intent was to make you feel less remorse about killing them, it worked.

** The survivor Ravi gives you a plan to combine a cleaver and a chainsaw to make a paired set of mini chainsaws to use against the undead horde. When he sees it, he states that using them is incredibly dangerous and he'd kill himself trying to use them as a weapon. Of course, that doesn't stop you from using it.
