Zombie-loathing mall rats get a second chance to take back Forever 21 in Dead Rising: Chop ’Till you Drop. As you’ve no doubt heard, this is anything but a straight Wii port from the Xbox 360. But just how bad is it? Well, put it this way: I might finally find out what happens if the Day 3 apocalypse never happens. Fewer zombies (there are zombies in the game, right? RIGHT?) in the preview videos make it look easier. Plus, zombie dogs! (Poodles, no less…)
On the downside: Looks like my beloved Daikatana doesn’t have quite the same level of Ginsu-crispness I’ve come to expect on the 360, and it takes two buttons to pick stuff up. Of course, when there are only two zombies hanging outside Aeropostal, that probably won’t be much of a problem. I must protest NOT being able to get in the car and joyride, however. Dude, it’s the end of the world as I know it - let me get my GTA on!
On the plus side, I think the only real danger here is dying of boredom. Check out the differences side-by-side:

Wow...I'm VERY glad we have DR on the Xbox 360...It's kinda hard sometimes, but the Wii version does look like I'd get bored...thanks for posting the side by side!
