James Silva has taken time out from his busy coding schedule to blog about some of the different ways you will be able to slice foes in his XBLA kill 'em up The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai.
Story Mode is.. well, its the one with the plot (dunno - something about washing dishes and cutting people into small chunks), 14 levels worth of bad guy killing and guitar solos over 3 difficulty modes.
Dish Challenge is a combo-based mode that increases your score multiplier the longer you can maintain an unbroken run of murderous moves. Silva reckons he can score around the 500 million mark by trying to beat entire levels in just one continuous combo, so you'd better get practicing.
Arcade mode looks like the best for a quick fix of ultra violence - short one-roomed areas with themed sub-modes like 'Everyone takes 4x damage' and 'Monsters are only damaged while airborne'.
This brutally difficult side-scroller is good, bloody entertainment. watch this review.

I picked this game up for 400 points and on an even better deal picked up the points on sale!
I felt like an ass buying it for 800 points when it came out. Not that it isn't good but the fact that it's so DAMN HARD! Also they changed a lot of things from the early XNA demo that came out and I didn't like the new co-op.
But man this game is HARD
