8 Video Games You Need To Play Over Christmas 2016
2. Dead Rising 4
A zombie game at Christmas? Am I mad?
Well, no, not really. Dead Rising is almost the complete opposite of Capcom's other zombie infested franchise, Resident Evil. Where Resident Evil builds it's experience around horror and dark, serious themes, Dead Rising is more of a zombie sandbox affair.
The games have always let you engage in zombie survival through the use of wacky weapon combinations, over the top characters, hordes of brain-dead enemies and a sense of fun. All with tongue firmly in cheek.
So, with this year seeing a timely release of a new game in the franchise - Dead Rising 4 - we'll be taking another trip to Willamette Mall to engage in some festive season zombie culling, and spend hours dreaming up and executing the most creative ways to dispatch them.
Being set at Christmas time also makes the game extra appropriate for this list, just in case you needed any extra encouragement.
