Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop, Trailers, Screens, Lots Of Cutting
Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop is basically Dead Rising for the 360, but it’s going to be on the Wii. The sweetest part is they used the same engine that Resident Evil 4 for the Wii used. You can use the Wiimote to aim, and shoot, swing weapons, throw stuff, shake off zombies and the fun stuff. There will be new enemies, easier save functionality. Seems like it’ll be cool for hardcore Wii fans who maybe don’t have a 360. The game comes out December 15th of this year, Wii only. Read on for screen shots, and check out….
the debut trailer HERE!
and gameplay HERE!

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
