The JACKAL Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai Developer(s) Ska Studios Publisher(s) Microsoft Game Studios Designer(s) James Silva Engine Microsoft XNA Platform(s) Xbox 360 (XBLA) Release date(s) April 1, 2009[1] Genre(s) Side-scroller, Beat 'em up Mode(s) Single player, Multiplayer[2] Rating(s) ESRB: M Media Download The Dishwasher is a 2D, side-scrolling, beat 'em up action game. Gameplay revolves around an unnamed protagonist, ostensibly a dishwasher, as he fights through waves of increasingly strong enemies until the boss fight and the end of the level. The player is given a basic starting weapon (meat cleavers) and can earn new weapons and upgrades by defeating bosses and collecting 'spirals' from defeated enemies. Weapons include the cleavers, a samurai sword, a machine gun/shotgun combo, chainsaw, and kama. Fighting is done through using either a basic attack, a strong attack, or a grab move, in combination or alone to string together chains of attacks for points. Enemies, once weakened, are susceptible to various 'finishing moves' that yield even more points and health to the player. There is also a magic system, dubbed Dish Magic, which can be bought at later levels. Also present is a guitar minigame, which can be played with the common guitar peripherals from the Guitar Hero and Rock Band series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The JACKAL Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 I jes played the TRIAL version of this game, the only way to describe this game is that its "neit , beautiful, very intense and brutal". I recommend everyone to download this game from LIVE. I think im going to buy this today itself, it costs only 800 MS points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulovski Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 PS: Whoever said Castlevania is the best 2d game is def a moron. best 2d game - Braid undoubtedly. Also, Castlevania far superior in terms of gameplay smoothness, sheer mindnumbing difficulty, and graphics are about a million times better.

I knew u were gonna say that ..gah!! anyway every time i want to buy BAIRd, and i always end up buying all other arcade games, SMALL ARMS, DISHWASHER, Castlevania (accidently) ,Bionic Comando and Street fighter2 hd remix. Ive played BAIRD... but its seems a lil too neit and old fashioned. Anyway ill get it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarketTantrik Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Just bought this game. Will try it out later tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarketTantrik Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 This game is the most awesome beat 'em available on XBLA after Castle Crashers. The art style is surreal and the moves are simply wicked. Hard to believe it was programmed by just one dude over the course of 18 months, just using XNA.

MarketTantrik Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Guys i just bought this game last night ! i cannot believe a 2d side scrolling game could be so awesome .Its like ryu hayabusa kicking a*s in style except that its in 2d. And its almost as difficult as Ninja Gaiden Black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
