Story

Dead Rising follows the harrowing tale of Frank West, an overly zealous freelance photojournalist on a hunt for the scoop of a lifetime. In pursuit of a juicy lead, he makes his way to a small suburban town only to find that it is overrun by something that appears to be a riot. After jumping out of the helicopter onto the landing pad of the local mall, he finds out it isn't a riot, but the dead have..risen. It will be a true struggle to survive the endless stream of undead, but players will have full reign of a realistic shopping center, utilizing anything they find to fight off the flesh-hungry mob and search for the truth behind the horrendous epidemic. The variety of different stores in the mall offers players an endless supply of resources including vehicles, makeshift weapons and more. Players will also encounter other survivors along the way and by helping them can acquire valuable clues as to what has happened.

Chop Till Your Down

Since the success of Dead Rising and Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition, the Capcom decides to transfer Dead Rising contents from Xbox360 to the Nintendo Wii with changes from player feedback. The gameplay is quite identical to Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition except that you don't need to take photos anymore. Compare to Xbox360 save system in which you save once in the entire game and also finds a few save spots, the Wii has multiple save slots and save spots. Also since the Nintendo Wii is not a powerhouse, the graphics and the number of zombies has been reduced a lot. There's also fewer subplots, a timer timing how long you complete a mission and a few additional weapons.
