Chef had given The Dishwasher alien blood, and with it the power to exact his revenge on the syndicate that had murdered him. Before they could complete their experiments on The Dishwasher he was rescued and revived by Chef, his old boss at Foghorn Cafe. The Dishwasher was once a normal human working at the Foghorn Cafe until Synthesis AI killed him and captured his body to turn into a cyborg. Ultimately the Fallen Engineer is killed at the hands of The Dishwasher during the final moments of Dead Samurai. He is revealed to have similar powers to The Dishwasher and Chef, as he believes Chef is the only person powerful enough to stop him. The Fallen Engineer is the man responsible for the creation of the cyborgs and the controller of Synthesis AI. Yuki is captured and blamed for the fire that The Dishwasher and Chef set to cleanse the Earth and is sent to rot in the Iffenhaus Space Prison. Shortly thereafter she was revived in the same manner as The Dishwasher by "The Creeper", a mysterious entity who seeks to control Yuki through nightmares and hallucinations for his own insidious means. In a confrontation with The Dishwasher in Dead Samurai she is killed at the hands of her stepbrother and thanks him for setting her free. Once she joined the ranks of the Cyborgs willingly and worked as an assassin for Synthesis AI. Yuki, or "The Prisoner" as she is dubbed in the character select menu, is the stepsister of The Dishwasher. Chef claimed to have alien blood, which he gave to The Dishwasher to revive him and provide him with powers far beyond that of a normal human. He was later rescued and revived by Chef, the head cook of the Foghorn Cafe where The Dishwasher worked as, you guessed it, a dishwasher. The Dishwasher was killed in the opening segment of Dead Samurai by Synthesis AI, the corporation responsible for turning mankind in cyborgs and raising the undead. Now, instead of being fueled by vengeance, he seeks to eliminate all evil in the universe, by any means necessary. In The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai he was vengeful and aggressive, but in the time since the previous game he has calmed considerably as he has gained more control of his abilities. The Dishwasher is the unnamed titular character of the series. Videos Episode 01 - Blood, Death, and VengeanceĮpisode 06 - The Stocks Don't Rise With Randies

I will be playing through the co-op campaign so I will provide a synopsis of the plot so far along with showcasing the characters.

Vampire Smile is simply a better game and the way I see it if you're only going to pick up one new Xbox Live Arcade game in the near future I think it should be The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile.Īs I said the game itself provides a recap of the story, but this is only the case in single player campaign.

The narrative in Vampire Smile also provides just enough back story that the player can jump right in to it. The two games are extremely similar, but Vampire Smile is simply better in execution. The combat is more fluid, the controls are tighter, and the visuals and animations are much more polished. Why not play the first game? The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile takes the core concept of its predecessor (Intense combat, over the top action, and a film noir visual style) and takes it to the next level. This is the story of its sequel: The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile, which was released in April of 2011. Work continued on the game and in 2009 The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai was released to the Xbox Live Arcade. James Silva, creator of The Dishwasher, won the first prize of $10,000 and an Xbox Live Arcade publishing contract. In 2007 Microsoft held their first Dream-Build-Play development contest.
