I'm actually quite impressed at what they've achieved on the wii. As far as the 360 vs Wii pissing match goes can we stow it please? the 360 is very powerful (I in fact have the 360 version of this game) and we can't expect an exact port. I'm just pleased that a developer is having a shot at something that has potential to really push the hardware.

elronathon

Not too shabby for the Wii, although it would have been a better comparison if they used higher res pics. I don't care too much about the graphics though, and since I still haven't picked up a 360, so this'll give me a chance to play finally.

VengefulRonin

Thank you Mario. But our zombies are in another mall!

hagridore

a) well I'd just like to see how they are going to do the park, nothing to hide behind there

b) isn't dead rising 2 supposed to be in Vegas?

JakeDunn

@Al3xand3r:

yea, i'm sure the developers released their crappiest shots to the press to hype their game!

That makes perfect sense.

cookiesareafriend

Sigh, everybody going off @ that website as if they try to show some definitive comparison when the game's not even out yet for the Wii. They just went by the available Wii screenshots then did a casual search for 360 shots fo the same or similar areas and that was it. Obviously there are other screenshots which show far more zombies on the 360 but who's to say we won't see more than 20 zombies on the Wii also? They're just showing people the Wii stacks up decently so far and doesn't only allow 6 or a dozen zombies. Why take it so seriously?

Al3xand3r

well, in the 'many zombies' screens, I count 39 on the 360, and 18 on the Wii.

LongDarkBlues

I'm expecting it to be A LOT easier.

I mean, changing the camera angle to resi 4 style alone makes it easier.

Ryumeka

The gamecube version looks like crap, but you'll have to forgive it, it's only a 250$ gamecube after all.

cookiesareafriend

@qbix: Actually, yeah, I'm going to re-evaluate my opinion to doesn't stack up at all.

I also just noticed this is from a site dubbed "Wii Fanboy"...

Nirolak

Im looking forward to play this on the Wii and see just hoe much can Capcom squeeze out of it. Definetly interested.

Shiryu

@Zim: You're right, the comparisons are a joke. Here's a bit more valid of a comparison:

[xbox360.ign.com]

[xbox360.ign.com]

Hey, what do ya know? Only about 5 zombies in that video of the unfinished X-Box 360 version. BUT WE MUST CONDEMN THE UNFINISHED WII VERSION FOR NOT HAVING AS MANY ZOMBIES AS THE FINISHED X-BOX 360 VERSION!

NinjaMarion

Ah, I miss the joy of stealing that machine gun from the convicts and going to that small outdoors plaza and just letting it rip through those hordes.

Wahrheit

The comparison of the second picture is a joke. Seriously the wii version there are maybe 20 or so zombies right by you and none in the distance. The 360 version there are 20 or so zombies by you, then maybe another 20 in the version.

Not to mention with the 360 screenshots they seem to have chosen the best possible angle to hide the background so you can't see all the extra zombies there.

Zim

@qbix:
@nip:

I love how the comparison shots labeled it "Many Zombies" on both screen shots instead of actually doing any sort of count.

Anyway Im peeved the Wii is getting this and not the PSTriple.

MyLittlePwny

@RaptureScientist: Of course they did, Wii doesn't have real HD.

Fadakar

lol @ the comparison. wow.

nip

It does look a little flat and plain in comparison, but I still think it'll be jsut as enjoyable. The thing I find with games is without the direct comparison right there I dont tend to notice the difference. If I'm immersed in a game it really doesnt matter if it's not looking quite as good as it should.

One example is Saints Row vs GTA4, I knew that GTA4 looked alot better than Saints Row but I didnt realise just how much until I played one game after the other. But previously, with the space of a couple of months between playing the games, I didnt notice how much better/worse the other looked since the better one wasnt fresh in my mind pointing out all the inadequicies of the other.

...in short, as long as the gameplay doesnt suffer I'm sure the graphics wont ruin the experience. =)

Turel777

Videos will do more justice than screen shots. Although no doubt they improved the standard def. text.

RaptureScientist

Dreamcast games looked better.
I'll take MAD WORLD for my future chainsaw-massacre needs, thank you very much.

Serdur

I doubt the Wii can do this:

[media.teamxbox.com]

[image.com.com]

[images.ampednews.com]

qbix

Lol, come on now, thats a terrible compariosn unless Im not seeing the bigger comparison shots, you cant compare thumbnail shots, of course they're gonna look about the same, you cant see sh*t!

MyLittlePwny

these guys can't be serious, can they?
I want to see the underground parking area on the Wii though

SupaPhly

Hope a PS3 version comes out soon. They obviously don't mind, seeing as the Wii is getting it.

Crimson_Ryan

I'm wondering what Dead Rising 2 will look like on the 360 as well actually, because now Capcom has vastly better optimization and coding knowledge of the system.

While the Wii version seems to stack up pretty well, this was Capcom's first 360 game but their third or fourth Wii game, so I'm curious just how much they could get out of the 360/PS3 this far into the generation.

Nirolak

@ManiO: Exactly, they need to hurry up and announce Dead Rising 2 for 360 and PS3. Dead Rising is the only game I miss from my old 360.

SynKade

Any ideas on the control scheme? Or any word on a PS3 version?

ManiO

Lol I love how this guy takes photos that were obviously meant for the press and such for the 360 version, there's obviously so many more zombies in the 360 version. They really weren't kidding when they named themselves Wii Fanboy.

Fadakar

I don't know why everybody's worried about the graphics, or the number of zombies. I'm more interested to see what kind of motions they will incorporate for the different weapons, and if they'll fix some of the gripes people had about the 360 version's gameplay.

frickinharlem3

It still looks ugly as hell

Winterbringer

Saying that they're comparable is just wishful thinking.

The screenshots have been picked to present the Wii version in the best light possible, but if you look closely the screens are really low resolution and low detail.

I have a Wii, but it really isn't cut out for this kind of game. The console would be much better served with titles built for it from the ground up. Porting this kind of stuff just shows up its deficiencies.

kevlar35

What does 'big props' mean?

Seriously. I come from the UK and its not used here, although Ive heard N'Gai Croal use it a lot on GameTrailers.com. Im guessing it means something like 'Enough respect?'

Andronix

Muuuch better; it actually looks a little sharper than I'd hoped considering they do indeed manage to retain Many Zombies. If the motion controls are even halfway decent, I may finally have to get me a Wii.

cynopt

Why do people care about this so much?

The Wii is the Wii. It doesn't do high-end graphics/processing power better than your 360. It does motion control better than your 360. Why not play to a console's strengths and make comparisons that way?

phinehas

Wow, you mean guns will actually viable weapons in Dead Rising? Awesome!

I'm happy to see the RE4 style aiming come to the game, because the 360 version handled like a pile of shit in a shopping cart.

I love the Wii and the 360, but it's ironic that shooting (the one thing the 360 has a lot of) is one of the things the Wii does better than the 360 could ever hope to.

One reason I'll never play RE5 on 360/PS3--I'm never going back to thumbsticks.

Smutking

I was reading articles on this, and the guy being interviewed says by the time its done they hope to have 100 zombies on screen at any given time.

Is it possible this is just an early demo build?

TRT-X

@NinjaMarion: If you had actually played the game you would know there is a certain point when the amount of zombies decreases due to a plot point. Here how about I show you a video from an even earlier point. So I guess even less finished 360 version
[xbox360.ign.com]
See how many zombies there are when he looks out the store?
So yea nice try at trolling there.

I have actually completed Dead rising, I know the amount of zombies on screen gets ridiculous.

Hey here are some screens from the unfinished 360 version
[xbox360.ign.com]
[xbox360.ign.com]

Zim

Geez it seems most people here never actually played dead rising. I've just played about 2 hours so let's remind people of a couple of things.

Depending on which day and the time of the day, zombie density varies tremendously.

Even the 360 version has zombie pop up (some of the shots from the 360 version in this thread are complete bullshots and the rest are many staged promotional material) and considering the emptiness in the distance of the wii version it could be safe to assume the pop up distance (At least currently) is lower.

Paroxysm

They didn't bother to use any actual screenshots from the 360 version, just target renders.

tokeytorey

@kevlar35: I don't think the screenshots have been 'picked' to show the Wii version in the best possible light. There are only a handful of screens released. These are them. They also don't look great - considering you used the phrase 'best possible light', it's amusing that the most obvious and largest difference in graphics quality is that the Wii version hardly has any lighting effects...

Really the main 'point' insofar as this article has one is to say what everyone with more than three brain cells already knew: you can't tell based on a handful of screenshots how severely the number of zombies/zombie draw-distance/whatever has been reduced on Wii. It might be bad, it might not be.

@Smutking:

More like a pile of very sticky objects in a shopping cart. :)

Clean up, register 6!

Wahrheit

How about raising the camera in that 360 Plaza shot. There are probably 100 zombies going into the distance...where there are non in the Wii version.

Hopefully the game will be good, but these shots were very strategic.

Shandy706

I give the Wii credit for just having the game and despite the ugly graphics, which everyone and their mom complains about, it will probably be very fun. People who complain about Wii graphics should shut up, how can the wii Render 25 - 50 zombies in high quality at one time? Resident Evil 4 had better looking zombie models then the first dead rising to begin with.

Hulkamaniac

@hunter_SR-388: What are you saying here? Have you even played Dead Rising on the 360? You can barely move!

groove66

I'm not sure if they did such a good job on the wii...perhaps they did such a crappy job on the 360, that you can't tell that much difference from the wii.

karateka

Ok, I think that I will stick with the 360 if I want to play the series,

1. No picture mode
2. Horrible looking
3. Less Zombies
4. Personally, I prefer using a controller.

Xcite79

@Zim: You seem to be agreeing with NinjaMarion (despite calling them a troll). We know the amount of zombies in Dead Rising on 360 gets ridiculous, we've all played it and/or read the reviews.

We'll know how if the amount of zombies in Dead Rising on Wii gets ridiculous too, once we've all played it and/or read the reviews.

I tend not to judge games on a couple of screenshots six months before the release date, but hey. I'm wacky like that.

PenguinJim

Damn, Dead Rising Wii looks so gray. It's fugly as hell.

RandomPoltergeist

@phinehas:

The divide between 360 owners and Wii owners (and those who only own one or the other) often comes down to the difference between graphics and controls.

I don't plan on getting Dead Rising for the Wii. I have it for the 360. I doubt anyone who is complaining is planning on getting it for the Wii. They likely have it (or have played it) on the 360.

Those who don't, though, are in for a rather decent game so long as too much isn't lost in translation. It sounds like they've made the game more linear this go around. I suppose that's fine for people who couldn't handle the pressure.

My big fear is that time won't be an issue like it was on the 360. A lot of the tension was based on trying to be everywhere at once or plotting on the fly so you could get survivors back safely.

Most importantly for the Wii, though, is the fact that mature gaming is so often an afterthought on the Wii. If this sells well enough (which I doubt due to the aforementioned multiple console owners), then I'd expect to see more developers take a risk by dipping a toe into the M for Mature pool.

I'd like to see it outsell the 360 version, but I highly doubt that'll happen. Still, when you think about it, M rated games are selling pretty well on the Wii. Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition has sold millions, as has Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles and House of the Dead 2 & 3.

If the trend continues, Nintendo could shake the kiddie image. How scary a thought is that?

PerswAsian

@Smutking: IS Re5 Even Coming out for Wii?

Barf#1

i'm pretty sure the second screenshot is actually a myth II mod of some kind...

tetracycloide

Remember when this game was actually good?

I don't.

IndividualAnonymous

@PerswAsian: Prepare to be disappointed! Apparently this version does not feature the real-time simultaneous missions like the 360 version. I know some people hated this, and the save system, but I really, really liked it, and it made the game for me.

My only complaint is that you have breakneck action for 2 of the 3 days, then the last day is dead silent (pun intended). I guess they left it for you to do sandbox stuff, but I found it boooring running out the clock. I was very glad for the epilogue.

BTW, wonder how the Wii will handle those tunnels at the end?

catapult37

who thought this was a good idea i would rather see some ded rising 2 pics or something that dosnt suck

phinehas

@cookiesareafriend: hahah thats funny. where did you possibly come up with that gamecube joke? thats a fresh one i tell you.

seriously, tell that some more!

shouryuuken

Why is everyone in a pissing match?

Wii fanboys in general -Don't try to justify your singular purchase on your Wii and just enjoy the game

Xbox 360 fanboys - Just be happy people can enjoy a game that was awesome back then, if you like the series so much why not let them enjoy it too?

Of course this is all too hard to ask since it seems the "LOL GCN > XBAWKS" wars are still going on. But for me I'm going to stick with my version since I've already done Capcom a favor and bought RE4 for the Gamecube and Wii.

Kaizuden

I love Dead Rising. Crappy mission structure and all. Because really, it's all about the zombies.

FoxHoundADAM

It's funny, I was in the middle of playing Dead Rising when they announced this for the Wii. I took a look at the screen shots and I was impressed at the recreation on the Wii. I was surprised to see so many people hating on the Wii version. It clearly isn't as pretty but I still think it looks like a pretty solid port that will keep the main fun in the game.

JN64Lover

Wait, no picture mode? I actually had a ton of fun with that part of the game. Actually reading this has got me wanting to play it again. What is it going for used these days? Can't be too much, isn't it part of 360's "Platinum Games" as well?

Mitch Cumstein

@qbix: Oh no way, they'll probably be spread out which will just make them easier to run around. I can't see this game being very complicated.

@JN64Lover: It's totally a solid port, but if you compare the two versions, a lot of people will obsess about the graphics, and more people will obsess about the lack of zombies appearing. If I didn't own the 360 version already (I was in the middle of playing too when they announced it) I would consider picking up the Wii version.

Eschguy

@justinbox360: of course the 360 version will be superior. but it doesn't look so bad that it will totally ruin the experience. if i can suddenly afford a 360, i'd obviously pick it for the 360. in the mean time, i'm looking forward to playing it on the console i own. what could ruin it though is having to waggle through it.

pasquinelli

@catapult37:

Yeah, the tension by having so much to do with so little time was something I mentioned. That said, some people prefer Jet Set Radio Future to Jet Grind Radio and it didn't have nearly as much tension without fighting against the clock as well as the fuzz.

It takes different strokes to move the world.

I expect it to still be a core game with a slightly easier approach. To people who have played the original, it'll likely feel dumbed down. Which, really, is exactly what happens when you target "an expanded audience" as I believe Capcom's PR has stated.

The hardest of the core simply don't buy the games that they bitch about not having enough of. No More Heroes, Okami, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Viewtiful Joe... all games that targeted the hardcore and the old school gamer. They mostly went ignored.

So, dumb a game down and expect more sells. Additionally, if you can make it "dark" it'll sell more in America (Prince of Persia's sequels, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, the boxart for every fucking game in America).

PerswAsian

Major downgrade....capcom should just port it to the PS3.

Dante18

@ManiO:Yup, waggle.

WildWon

At least I can actually imagine myself killing zombies through physical actions. Buttons are fun, but hacking into a zombie sounds more fun, maybe they should put gc/classic controller support if you get tired.

BrotherNick

I'm sorry, but the 360 version will be superior. The Wii version just looks...watered down.

justinbox360

@SupaPhly:

It'll probably have like 10 zombies...

kyroN

Sounds great to me.

Benjo

I'm not usually one to cut apart a game for it's graphics, but dead rising really relies on the fact that you always feel overwhelmed. I thought it was nuts to look in any direction and see tons of zombies I'd have to hack through.

And aside from the graphics, they took out the fact that he needs to take pictures, which was a huge part of the story and a really fun and hilarious part of gameplay.

But wait theres more? They also take away the real-time missions? C'mon that totally made things stressful and overwhelming. Stress in my opinion is the only thing that will ever make a zombie game feel like a zombie movie.

paeper

@frickinharlem3: Didn't you get the memo, IT IS ALL ABOUT THE GRAPHZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!

I could care less about that, i just want an engaging and fun play.

valhum

Cool, now where's Dead Rising 2 >:(

VegetarianMeat

We need a first party zombie game. Called "Zombii", with Zombie style Miis.

Do it.

Lexi00

@ZinkO: Beat Incursion: I don't think the comments could be considered trolling. If we were only allowed to say nice things about this game that would be pretty lame. Allow people to state their opinion. That's the point of the commenting.

And the 100 on-screen zombies claim doesn't say much considering they haven't actually accomplished it yet going by your statement. And also, while 100 sounds like a large number, I don't think that will be enough for a lot of the areas of the game.

Hmm maybe if they made him have a light radius (diablo style) this game would look to have enough zombies. That would be kinda lame though.

paeper

Wow, Wii owners actually get a good port for a game that they want for once and everyone has to try and deprive them of it. Way to go, guys...

The Question

man, where is our Czar? 2/3 of the comments here are outright trolling. Maybe you all missed the Nintendo Power interview? Whey they're going for 100 on-screen zombies concurrently?

ZinkO: Beat Incursion

yay now make dead rising

Tha_Villain

@osaka-kun: Here's step 1 of the "Is it a PS1 game" flowchart.
What's the texture filtering like?
- Bilinear or better -> Not a PS1 game
- Nearest Neighbor -> Maybe a PS1 game

Torgen got his apology faceplate but not his fixed GH3 disc

LOL. The Wii screens look like they came out of a Nintendo 64 with the 4 MB Expansion. Wii screens hurt my eyes.

gencid

Xbox 360 - A lot of flak for "hanging up" on the security guy.

Wii - A lot of flak for "hanging up" on the security guy.

But do we need binoculars to read the onscreen text.

OhSoDelish

@Serdur: So true!

But seriously, It is obvious the Wii version (Even though its a port) will be nothing like the Xbox one, theres a few reasons though: 1) The Wii isn't as powerful, and 2) If you had the 360 version, you'll be looking for something fresh and a new take on Dead Rising.

infestedDemon

Have any of you guys read the Nintendo Power coveragE? Capcom is aiming to have more than 100 zombies on screen at once. It might not be packed as much, but the game still has good time.

Hyperfludd

Dead Rising was a surprise hit. It's one of the few older current gen games I still play on a regular basis.

Can't wait for Dead Rising 2. I hope they make DR a real franchise & keep it around for a long time.

string_theory

@ZinkO: Beat Incursion: I really think this constant calling for bans is getting childish and old. People are legitimately pointing out what made Dead Rising great on the 360. It just happens to be some of the things they were forced to take out of the wii version due to lack of power, so that makes it trolling? Wii owners, which i happen to be one of, always tries to sing the nintendo mantra of gameplay over graphics, but in this game the horsepower is needed to make the game great. Its almost pointless to play this game if you don't have the anxiety that goes along with the timed missions and the sea of zombies standing in your way. This game on the 360 is a rush, i don't think you'll ever get that same rush on the wii version. My 2cents.

sniper13x

I love how Wii fanboys actually try and argue when it's brought up that their system isn't powerful.

Guys, seriously, that's not really a point you can argue it's a fact.

Congrats on getting a watered down version of what's sadly one of the best 360 games.

Caowyth

I bet its possible for wii Dead Rising to look similiar to the 360 Dead Rising. but it probably won't happen. Any of the consoles have the potential to put out some good graphics. Its easy to not put the effort into ports and cross platform games.

mrpeepants

@qbix: then you haven't meet loud and repetitive code

FP Bleentastic has cake

There aren't any distant zombies on the Wii version.

This is a non buy for me.

Gambia

I can't imagine this game having a decent or stable framerate. Man the framerate dips are going to be bad!!!

mlubczyn

What a stupid comparison. The Wii version has a few dozen zombies around the player but there is nothing visible in the distance. The 360 version has zombies damn near everywhere. Not even worth a comparison, and it is pathetic that Wii Fanboys even try. Aren't they the ones that claim gameplay > graphics? Then why do these kind of comparisons?

jbiller

I still don't understand how they're going to do the underground tunnels in the Wii version.

Saprol

The biggest "Wow Factor" of the Xbox 360 version of Dead Rising wasn't the amount of zombies or items in your immediate area, but also in the far distance, too. You felt like the world was larger than the five feet in front of you. This game fails to do that.

RobKramble

One of the most awesome things in this game is the zombie that gets a shower head impaled into him; he walks around showering blood. That had me laughing for hours :D

okenny :)

Chop till ya drop! And not just zombies, graphics too! Looks good for a Wii game and has a decent enough amount of zombies.

They're trying to go for 100 zombies on screen accd to Nintendo Power... Guess I'll wait and see.

Megan Fox Iz Hot! ^-^ - ph15h

Hey, as long as it's a good port I'm glad more people will get to play it. W00t for Dead Rising!

Zeouterlimits

Less zombies in many areas is good, in the last parts of the game crossing some parts became anoying because the massive zombie count...

TOCATL

Crud, I just noticed I said a really bad word in there, and no way to edit the comment...

corronchilejano

The Wii version will OBVIOUSLY not look as good as the 360 version. There are plenty of zombies, maybe not as much, but still, why not wait until we see video before saying ¨Wii fanboys fuck you that game sucks?"

corronchilejano

burn me at the stake, but i did not like dead rising at all, the controls sucked and the save system was fucked up

otis123

I love Dead Rising for the 360, and since I got red ringed I can't play it. Oh well, even if this doesn't come to our shores for a while I can't wait to play it. I don't care how many zombies there are or how good the graphics are, like everyone is saying it, all about the game play, though I hope they got rid of Otis' radio. Too freaking annoying.

Rutty

I'll stick to my pretty 360 version.

Darth_X

They took a bad angle for the 360 screen shot this is pathetic

The Wii won't be able to do a 1/4th of what the 360 accomplished with this game. Bring on Dead Rising 2!

Murderdolls

@IndividualAnonymous:

I bought Dead Rising when it came out two years ago, played it for about two hours, got frustrated, hated it, put it the hell down and figured I'd never play it again. Thought it was just a poorly conceived, unfun game. (note: I generally detest any sort of unstructured sandbox game.) After finally coming out of my MGS4 obsession about a week ago, I needed something else to play, and something made me pick up Dead Rising to give it another chance. Going back in knowing what to expect, I enjoyed it a lot more, and it's become my current obsession. Finishing up my third playthrough tonight and will definitely be going back for fourths and most like fifths and sixths. Trying to rescue survivors and solve the case files is fun enough, but man, general zombie horde slaughtering is the most addictive pastime I've found in ages.

So yeah. The game is actually good.

Druffmaul

Dead Rising? Never played it. But I did read the post thoroughly. Why are so many internet panties twisted about this? I'm befuddled. The twits that claim they see a difference between PS3 and 360 graphics are all over this like its not even obvious. The Wii is not going to spit out 360 graphics, ever. That doesn't mean that it won't be a competent or even good game.

Here's the thing, for once I'm glad to see a game scaled down from one of the big boys, instead of coming straight over from the PS2. Yes, graphics are secondary, but they don't come last either. So many of the games on the 360 and PS3 are not on the Wii because of next-gen graphics only. Seriously, whats keeping games like Bioshock, CoD4 and Portal from being done on the Wii? Superb graphics, thats the only thing it can't handle. Port 'em down and my cash is yours guys.

Ptolemy

How do you expect the Wii to render 30 or 40 good looking zombies at one time? The first Dead Rising on 360 had HD models but they did not look as good as Resident Evil 4 zombies, so why complain if you know the Wii has a graphical disadvantage? Thats what I call, absolute stupidity.

@Ptolemy:

it's not just graphics man. wii is not capable of advanced AI like the ps3 and 360 is capable of. i'm surprised people don't bring this up.

if any of you think that wii is capable of having enemy AI as intelligent as that of bioshock's,fear's, or halo's, you've got to be an idiot.

rodrigo47

@jbiller:

what's ironic is how they talk about gameplay winning over graphics but out of the 3 consoles, 360 has the biggest library of AAA games. ps3 is second, and wii is WAAAAAAY behind. unless of course you're a girl or an individual from the retired home that enjoys mini games then yeah, wii is the bomb.

rodrigo47

@gencid:

tell me about it. apart from the lack of zombies, the textures are horrible.

the 360's textures looked 3d. wii's looks 2d. not only does it look 2d, it looks smudged and smeared. looks like a crap paint job that's been slapped on a polygon. anyone who says it isn't so is in denial.

and people who say that this is a good port is ignorant as well and just trying to be politically correct.

how could people give praise to this port and give orange box port from 360 to ps3 crap (or any other 360 to ps3 port).

rodrigo47

you all need to stop with the political correctness. this holds nothing when compared to the 360 version.

and really, if there is anything in which graphics and hardware horsepower matters, it's this game! all you folks saying that this game looks pretty good for a wii game obviously haven't played or even seen the 360 version. if you did you would know that the wii's version looks garbage.

apart from the lack of zombies, the textures look garbage as well. they look smudged and crap.

this game is a horror game. graphics matter! one of the elements of horror is graphics (that includes make up). how the hell are you going to demonstrate horror with crap graphics? but of course, audio is also another element when it comes to horror but this is a zombie game, not fatal frame.

and seriously, what's up with all the political correctness that's in favor of the wii? in my opinion, 360 has better graphics than ps3 (slighhtly that is) and whenever there are ports, ps3 gets crapped on by everybody as if the 360's graphics are 3 times better than ps3's. but all you suckers in here trying to look like good guys are praising capcom for having the wii version look almost "identical" to the 360 version (my ass! not even half way close).

i despise sony and all, but seriously, this game would've done more justice if converted for ps3. porting it to ps3 would look way more idential to the 360 than porting it to wii.

At least the Wii version looks on par with the 360 version artistically.

@frickinharlem3: Because the number of zombies is what made the game fun. If there were only 6, it wouldn't be the same. Granted the Wii version will have more than that but the scale isn't the same. If you have the option of getting the 360 version or Wii, the best choice will always be the 360 version. Though anything will sell well on Wii. >.>

It doesnt look like they were able to recreate some of the lighting. The wii version looks quite bland because of it

Lol, 12 versus hundreds. Yeah. I want to see how they do the underground part.

It looks like a PS1 game.

It looks blurry to me or maybe that is the Vodka kicking in?

everyone seems to think that dead rising did something that wasn't possible on previous platforms, and I simply don't think that's the case. I mean, the AI for all the enemies is so ridiculously simple that they probably could've packed on even more if they wanted to. If you ask me, MGS4 and COD4 do something truly impressive with complex AI and ridiculous numbers of enemies.
