We first heard of a Dead Rising from Famitsu Magazine a while back. All we saw were screenshots. Nothing about the game was released. Well today, Capcom has officially announced that Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop is coming to the Nintendo
Wii console.
Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop delivers a more immersive, intuitive and interactive experience as players use the
Wii Remote to shoot, slash and bludgeon their way through a zombie infested shopping mall, fighting for survival. The main protagonist is a journalist named Frank West.
