Case West is the only game in the Dead Rising series that contains no victims (characters that cannot be saved).

In "Dead Rising 2: Case West", there is an Underground Tunnel with the words "Don't startle the wi-" written on the wall. Below the message is a vent that leads to the sewers, where the faint crys of a girl can be heard. This is is a reference to the Witch from the Left 4 Dead series.
