IGN - Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop Hands-On

"Perhaps the most surprising thing, going hands-on with Capcom's Wii reworking of its Xbox 360 zombie game, is how much this new Dead Rising plays like the company's other Wii port, Resident Evil 4. Superficially at least, anyone familiar with Chop Till You Drop's predecessor will be instantly at home in Willamete shopping mall. In terms of layout, it's a near-exact replica of the 360, each area of the sprawling complex immediately recognisable, despite some obvious graphical down-sizing for Wii's little processor..."

I prefer them on the Wii, because of the controls.

Everyone claims that the Wii is a kids' system. But it seems like it was practically built for Shooters and Survival Horror games, huh?

Top 10 Worst Video Game Remakes

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "Video game remakes are a special thing, as typically no one sets out to remake a game that was poorly received when it was originally launched but instead it’s usually only the best of the best that get the remake treatment. Games that reviewed well, were a hit with fans and (maybe most importantly) sold well are often chosen for remakes (why do you think there are so many Final Fantasy and Zelda remakes?) so it stands to reason that most remakes – are typically quite good (check out our list of the best remakes ever)… typically. So today we’re dragging these games out of the gutter to remember why they earned the title of worst remakes of all time, whether it’s because they turned a perfectly good experience sour or are just bad games in their own right."
