Anyone aching for a new House of The Dead
« on: May 18, 2011, 10:55:51 pm »
Since the last game came out about 2 years ago. I'm kinda want to see Sega announce a sequel to Overkill or 4 and at least release a port of the 4th game on PS3 as they did with Afterburner Climax. It's been six years since the fourth game was released. Not only that, I would love a remake of the first game. As for the spinoffs, let Z. Revenge be a part of a potential Dreamcat Collection 2 and EX on PS Move and Kinect (That would be so brilliant). So what do you guys think?

I was dying to play 4 like 4 years ago.
I would still love it if it is released in an Arcade compilation along with After Burner, OutRun, Rambo or something.

I really don't want Overkill, that was a nightmare.

I wouldn't mind playing HOTD:ex either.

Hell yeah! I'd love to see an XBLA/PSN release of HOTD4, and EX released to Kinect. I'd also love a sequel to Overkill.

Next to Sonic and JSR, HOTD is my favorite SEGA franchise. I love the oddball spinoffs like Pinball of the Dead and Typing of the Dead. The main series is, obviously, a lot of fun. One of my local arcades even has a designated HOTD area where they have HOTD2, 3 and 4 all lined up next to each other. Once, I played from one machine to the next, almost as though I was playing a mega game of HOTD.

I'm quite convinced that you'll see OverKill 2 announced by the end of the year.

I would seriously buy Move just to play House of the Dead 4.

Supposedly a lot of rail shooters are coming to Kinect. If they do good enough, I really hope SEGA catches on.

Overkill was a pretty bad lightgun game, peopel might've been satisfied aesthetically with the whole obvious fake exploitation cinema parody direction (not a fan personally... original HOTD stuff was every bit of Italian Zombie exploitation as Overkill was without a fake look to it). But oh boy what a mess what a mess. The yneed to play the original HOTD games a bit more to see how you do your enemy placement, not a fixed camera (yeah move around your view, worthless) horrible and that unsignificant scoring system, numbers for the sake of numbers blah.

Rather see HOTD4 port, while departing from the usual HOTD gameplay, it is actually pretty good, not virtua cop 3 good, but good enough. Larger Zombie quantity and control your uzi with bursts so that you could headshot, reload is also slightly trickier, harder to count the bullets you've shot. Panic bombs are nice addition, it already kinda feels like a shmup now that zombies come in overwhelming forces.

@ loempiavreter: Welcome to the forums. You'll find that people here love Over Kill more then the actual series. We true HOTD fans may actually be a minority here.

So what you guys are no longer in love with Over Kill?

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1275
George thinks OverKill is better then HOTD3
Sanus thinkg OK is better then most games in the series.

Sure alot of people disagree with them, so me saying minority perhaps wasn't accurate but we have a strong demographic that prefers OK over WOW Works.

When I said most, I meant stuff like Zombie Revenge as well.

I have nothing against WOW, not sure why you are making it sound like that. I just thought games like The House of the Dead III could have been a lot better. The House of the Dead 2 is easily the best in the series. I also much rather play The House of the Dead 4 than a silly retouched version of a Wii game, too.

The only real issue with Overkill is how the bosses become far too easy once you level up your guns enough. In terms of stuff like amount of content, it blows the rest of the series away.

Wait, because some people might prefer one game over the worst in the numbered series, all over sudden means people like Headstrong games stuff more than WOW Works?

You are putting words into peoples' mouths, just because they like this game more than one particular game does not mean they do not like WOW's games.
