A couple of weeks back it was revealed that Capcom are bringing a version of Dead Rising onto Wii.

The developers are hoping to display over 100 zombies at once. Seems like a good number, although reports say the original... read more

Set in Egypt, you take control of Anubis, a supposed guardian of the underworld in the form of a jackal thing with a shiny staff. Like all the other Popcorn Arcade titles, Anubis II has... read more
