Looks like Typing/House of the Dead meets Guitar Hero. Based on the sole screenshot, I am deeming this as a must-have.

So long as they're not rehashing House of the Dead 2 again. But if they're bringing in new voice talent, I guess it's an original production.

(Hey! It's a a House of the Dead game! What do they need voice talent for!?)

Christ.

I almost wish they did include House of the Dead 2, though just as a bonus to enjoy with the new controls.

If this is successful, SingStar of the Dead isn't far behind. Maybe THAT'S the secret Michael Jackson game we heard about after his death...

"Don't Come, Don't Come!"

Also, this looks like an awful idea, considering how poorly HotD: Overkill sold on Wii.

It's not the first game to use guitar as a weapon.

It's made by the company who developed Real Heroes: Firefighters. House of the Dead Overkill was a blockbuster in comparison. If this game sells half as well as Overkill, it will be seen by them as a big success.

I would be interested in something like this, if Sega had something to do with it and it wasn't made by such a shitty developer.

You're forgetting something...
