Dead Rising Chop Til You Drop did take a hit in the graphics, but the game is still fun and very enjoyable.

i never played dead rising before on the 360, but i've playediton the wii. its good on the wii, its unfair to make a comprasion between the 360 and the wii version. its not that bad.

I haven't played it on 360 and acknowledge that the 360 version is probably better, but that does not mean the wii version necessarily bad. I've watched videos of it, and it looks like fun

Dead Rising on the Wii is pretty terrible. It's 360 counterpart is far superior. So much so that it makes the Wii version look like an N64 game.

Haven't played Dead Rising but Overkill is very fun, although way and way too short.

Dead rising looks acceptable while its actually being played, not on par with 360 but its average for wii(after all the RE4 engine is to be respected), but as game,is actually fun,it fixes some minor issues...Its good, not complete but good as long as you dont try it to be the original game.HOTD i havent tried yet

I don't own a 360 but want dead rising. An inferior, but still fun, port is better than nothing.

Played the original DR on 360, great game,

bought the Wii version the other day, and only played a short time last night.

the Wii version IS fun, and gives the same gameplay experience in my opinion.

A great title to have.

DR2 will only come out for PC/360/PS3 so because I'm such a fan of zombie games and DR in particular, I'll probably eventually have to buy one of those systems.

Having finally played Dead Rising on the Wii I can safely say it is just as fun as the 360 version. That's not to say it's a great game, but it's not a bad one either. In terms of porting a game from the 360 to the Wii however, it's a big middle finger up to all those that doubted it's quality on the Wii. Now lets see if any developers out there will port over something better. Personally I prefer House of the Dead: Overkill as it's not a genre that appears in my games collection too often and I like variety.

Frank turns left when you move the analog stick left and right when you move it right. He moves forward when you move it forwards and moves forward left and forward right but thats about it. It's awkward at first but you'll soon get used to it.

I have Dead Rising Wii and I got what I expected, maybe just a little bit less. There's no doubt that it's just as fun as it's 360 counterpart, the zombies may be less but they are more aggressive. Poodles and parrots can get annoying though. Gunplay is much better and more fun in the Wii version, melee weapons aren't as much fun because you can only carry one at a time, that's the biggest letdown for me but it didn't really bother me. The game's graphics are decent, nothing special but it's not terrible either. Seriously guys, it may look terrible but the game isn't as bad as you think.
