Dead Rising is essentially "Dawn of the Dead: The Game" (without the movie license). A bunch of zombies have taken over a mall and you, along with other survivors, are tasked with rescuing people trapped in various stores. Almost anything can be used as a weapon, from benches to shopping carts to guitars to katanas. The graphics are great, the action is bloody. Watch our video review for the lowdown. |
