Product Description
Platform: Nintendo Wii | Edition: Normal
Based on the critically acclaimed 'Dead Rising' for the Xbox 360, Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop follows the harrowing tale of Frank West, an overly zealous freelance journalist on a hunt for the scoop of a lifetime. In pursuit of a juicy lead, he makes his way to the small suburban town of Willamette only to find that it has become overrun by zombies. Frank escapes to the local shopping mall where he thinks he will find safety only to discover its crawling with the un-dead!
In order to survive players will have full reign of a realistic shopping centre where an endless supply of real and makeshift weapons will be at their disposal to fight off the flesh-hungry mob. Utilising the Wii Remote, this new iteration to the series will take zombie-bashing to a new level as you shake, swing and aim your weapons in an effort to take the enemies down.
- Utilises the same engine as 'Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition'
- New level of interaction utilising the Wii Remote - aim and fire guns, swing and throw weapons and shake off zombie attacks with added Wii Remote functionality
- New enemies exclusive to Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop
- Huge environment - vast indoor and outdoor mall areas provide a variety of different locations to explore
- Improved save functionality allows for more seamless gameplay
- Hordes of enemies on screen at once resulting in non-stop, pulse pounding action
- Anything in the mall is at Frank's disposal for battling the flesh-hungry mob
- Grab environmental objects, such as umbrellas and benches, or store items, such as golf clubs and lawnmowers from the mall shops to use as improvised weapons
- Consume food and drink from one of the malls many restaurants and cafés to resume Frank's health

I've seen a lot of reviews comparing the Wii version to the Xbox version but very little reviews that look at the Wii version in its own right just for what it is.
If you compare the two there are lots of major differences, in fact the only thing that remains the same is that you are stranded in a shoping centre with hundreds of zombies.
Lets get to the point, the Wii version is great fun:
Graphics - 8
The graphics are great for a Wii game, so if you only have a Wii you won't be disapointed.
Sound - 8
The sound is great, I only have one complaint, sometimes the Zombie sounds are quite loud but there are no Zombies for a good 10 meters, I wish they would have adjusted the volumes better for distance as you end up thinking there is a Zombie just behind you.
Gameplay - 9.5
This is great fun, nothing beats shooting loads of Zombies, I'm halfway through and have already killed 5000 Zombies and thats not really trying just focusing on the missions.
Just for the record some people have slagged this of because of the parots and dogs, there are not that many of them. For example once you have progressed a little in the main shopping centre you barely see them any more. And outside you see maybe one or two of each verses a lot of zombies.
Anyway if you've got a Wii I would easily recommend this game.

This game deserves so much more credit than it gets. Sure, there are problems, it can get annoying and a much better effort could have been made. But besides that, this is a fantastic game. If your looking for a long lasting experience that is a hell of a lot of fun then this is your game.
Graphics 3/5: Quite bland. The wii is capable of much more than this. Some effects and textures look so incredibly out of place, the zombies look quite bad up close and the main characters seem to have the same effects on them wherever they are. (Sunshine on them, blood, dirt etc.) They're passable but i expected better.
Audio 4/5: Some of the music is really good and its typical of what you'd expect from a zombie game. The music is atmospheric and tense, and contrasts perfectly with the happy go lucky elevator music in the non-zombie areas. the sound effects are good but sometimes seem out of place and coming from completly the wrong direction, and some effects such as the cliff zombie scratching his blades together are far too loud and direct. But overall quite good.
Gameplay 5/5: Nothing beats chopping up zombies in a lawnmower while running around in a mega man outfit. Yes you've killed zombies before. But you havent killed zombies like dead rising yet. Whilst there isn't as huge a choice of weapons in the wii version as supposed to 360, this is compensated for by the huge selection of guns. For those of you who played resi 4, the weapons are completly identical to the ones on that. Pretty much anything can be picked up and used. Vases, bikes, skateboards, cardboard boxes, lead pipes, katanas, chainsaws, shopping carts and much more can be used to mow down hordes of the undead.... Read more ›

When I first considered buying this game I was dubious about it, overall it looked a good game, but the other user reviews did not paint a very good picture. However I decided to go ahead and am glad I did. Overall it is a fun and amusing game to play, the only downside is the repetivness of it at times and the way the character walks on screen....really annoying..... Mind you if you can see past this it is entertaining to play and well worth the risk.

Thought people with an Xbox 360 could have all the zombie action fun with Dead Rising? Well not any more because it has finally been ported to the Wii! Since playing most of Dead Rising on the Xbox I wondered how such a big game could be fitted on to something like the Wii, yes, they'll have to down grade a little and the control system could backfire, but would it turn out to be a hit? Well, it isn't as bad as some people make out actually.
When I first started playing the game I knew that the graphics would be downgraded; it is the Wii after all. But it was quite impressive. Game play-wise it's extremely fun to be chopping at zombies left right and centre, I just couldn't stop. Use of the Wii remote was fun to use especially when riding bicycles through the hordes (or groups) of the undead or hitting them through the air with the bat. The screen text and mission outlay is far better than the Xbox version you can see all the words clearly and the timer doesn't get in the way so you have more freedom to blast, chop, maim and save the day. As for the people who complain about the voice acting being the worst they ever heard I say rubbish (go look on YouTube at Resident Evil Voice Acting Horror 10 mins, and then you'll see the worst)! It's not that bad but it still made me laugh from time to time at serious moments... almost like a Nicolas Cage film.
That said it's not without its down points.
My gripe with the graphics is that it seems they could have pushed the limits a little more (I'm sure the Wii's graphics are better than that if tested). The sound mix is a little tacky, as some of you have pointed out, distant zombies are a little bit loud at times when they shouldn't be.... Read more ›

A Bit Too Repetitive, repetitive, repetitive for me
Missions are very similar and thus get pretty meaningless fairly quickly into the game. I continued playing just because I had to finish it out of principle. Read more
