House of Dead 2

House of Dead 2

DETAIL

The often-used phrase "Virtua Cop meets Resident Evil" doesn't quite do Sega's zombie-blasting arcade gun-game series justice, but it's certainly close enough to give you the general idea of what the House of the Dead series is all about. In it, you're part of a government agency in charge of stopping the machinations of the nefarious and incredibly monotone Goldman, a suit-wearing evil mastermind intent on wiping outthe human race with his monster hordes for reasons that never really quite make sense - or have to, for that matter. If that sounds like the plot for the first House of the Dead game that's because, well, the evil is back!

While the graphics in the home version of the original House Of The Dead 2 fell far short of its coin-op cousin, the Dream cast port of the second game is virtually identical to the arcade sequel and looks phenomenal. The monsters and their environments are incredibly well modeled and textured, and your gunshots blast gory green holes through the zombies (which look fantastic when they get up close enough to take a bite out of you) and the other assorted nasties.

In the first HOUSE OF THE DEAD, you and your partner were sent to the Curian Mansion to investigate Dr. Curian, a mad scientist who was experimenting with the dead. Once you had cleaned out the house and eliminated the doctor, you figured the world was once again safe. Unfortunately, a man named Goldman decided to continue the doctor's research, only this time the zombies are overrunning an entire town. Once again, it's up to you and your partner to clean out the zombies and restore peace. Quick decisions are a must, but be careful that you don't tag an innocent citizen--keep your eyes open for special power-ups and upgrades. You'll have a variety of modes to choose from, including Arcade, Original, Training, Boss, and Ranking. Play this first-person on-rails shooter with the standard Dreamcast controller, or give yourself the authentic arcade feel and hook up your light gun.
