One of the biggest releases of last week (in Europe and the UK) and this week (in the US) was Capcom’s Dead Rising 2, a harrowing zombie destruction simulator that puts you in the shoes of Chuck Greene, a fellow who is currently tasked with surviving the hostile advances of tens of thousands of zombies in a gambling paradise.

Luckily, Greene has a few… ‘tools’ at his disposal to take care of the zombie menace. ‘Tools’ like a hand-crafted, double-sided chainsaw pole, plus hundreds more.

Dead Rising 2 released on both Xbox 360 and PS3 (and will be releasing on PC shortly), and wouldn’t you know it, as with all big multi-platform game releases, we need to get the lowdown on which console spits the game out onto our screens better and faster than the other.

In the included video below, you’ll be able to see the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of Dead Rising 2 go head-to-head, as each console’s graphical capabilities are showcased and put to the test:

Is it my imagination, or is the PS3 version slightly sharper?
