Wii Warm Up: The House of the Dead: Overseas


The House of the Dead series is permeated by an impossible-to-identify "Seganess." Some combination of arcade-fast gameplay, silliness, and Engrish just makes it feel like a Sega game. For the latest entry in the franchise, Headstrong Games has taken over for Sega's Wow Entertainment (now Wow Overworks), exchanging the campy horror vibe for something a bit more '70s-action.

With a new developer (from a new continent!) and a new style, do you think it's possible for Overkill to still feel like The House of the Dead? Or is the fresh coat of paint actually a good way to distance the new game from its predecessors?
