GameFocus: The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai Review
GameFocus writes: "In 2007, James Silva and his independent game company Ska Studios won Microsoft’s Dream-Build-Play game development competition with their entry, The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai. Two years later, their side-scrolling, hack-and-slash title is available for purchase through Xbox Live Arcade. This interesting but extremely difficult game goes to show what is possible with Microsoft XNA."
Pros
+ Interesting art style
+ Tight controls
+ Extremely violent
+ Challenging
Cons
– Might be too challenging for the average gamer
– Does become repetitive over time
– Incoherent storyline
– Could have used a bit more variety in the music department
