New House of the Dead game coming to Wii

[Frankie_Says_Relax]

I dig the Grindhouse aesthetic of the game ... I was a bit put off by the $40 price tag ... and I'll probably wait till it drops, and honestly that's only because I have so many other full-price purchases to make this month.

But I can't fault Sega on this one, they did give us HOTD2&3 at a bargain price prior.

There's lots of cursing during the actual game play.

Fun game, though, especially if you dig the "grindhouse" movies the game is inspired by.

Yep. This will be after hours play only for me. While it sucks that I can't just pop it in and go at it anytime, I'm cool with it. I knew this would happen eventually when I chose to have kids. Hell when she's old enough maybe we'll still play it together.

This is pretty awesome. My brother and I had so much fun with the light guns in House of the Dead 2 for the Dreamcast. That game is a classic.

G's bloodstains...

I paid $50 for it and don't mind. But probably the only other game (besides the PS3 Genesis Collection) I'll be picking up this month is SFIV.

If you're concerned with the cost, you should also probably know that it's a easy game to beat. I got through it last night, the same day I bought it. The game starts out tough, but then as you unlock/upgrade weapons, it gets easier. I still need to check out the "director's cut" mode and the mini-games though.

Good to know. Length isn't much of an issue ... and I wouldn't want a HOTD game to be longer than any of the others that came before it. I'll probably drop the cash on it when it hits the lower price tier.

Got my pal edition shipped today with the bonus -

2 x HOTD commissioned AMS Hand Cannons. These are a replica of the hand cannons used by Agent G in the game. The hand cannons will also allow firing from the trigger with a new advanced mechanism that allows the player to shoot as they would in real life.

pretty sweet!

Also it would be awsome if they put some DLC codes in the game for new missions, dlc would work really well on something that is relatively short like HOTD.
