I see most of the bad reviews are from people who didn't play the original game. I don't know what's the fuzz about. What you all expected? Skill tree? PvP? 100 hours of gameplay? Loot boxes? Paywall? IT'S AN ARCADE GAME FROM THE 90'S! It's a short and simple game!

Definitly really good, its have classic vibes like Virtua Cop, House Of The Dead retro series... Playing with my son, and he really love it :)

This remake does capture the feel of the OG pretty well. The game play is fun, rewarding quick reflexes and accuracy. Their are branching paths, different weapons to find, shootable items, secrets and in-game achievements. Would like to emphasise the game is good fun to play.( I have been a bit critical in some of my review) Graphics are good in 4k and run smoothly which is important. Using GSYNC and borderless window mode works a treat. This game does seem to push the PC pretty hard. Reading the comments that some are having crashes. I haven't had any stability issues which makes me think for those with stability issues overclocking may be the issue. This is the type of game that will push a system so if hardware isn't dialed in it may be a potential cause. Sound and music is ok. The audio quality is average. Nothing to write home about but serviceable.I do kinda feel that the audio lets the experience down a bit. The game has branching paths to find and three endings. As the campaign is short, maybe 15-20 minutes give or take the replay ability comes from getting the unlockables, earning achievements, seeing the different endings etc. I think the campaign could be a bit bigger even with the branching paths. Either that or more game modes, maybe a survival game mode for example. As it is the content is limited. Something I think could be done better is how the combat feels and the general feedback when you shoot something. The combat is ok but I don't quite get the sense of holding a powerful firearm and doing serious damage with it. I'm not sure exactly what it is that feels a bit underwhelming. Also shootable items need to give more feedback when destroyed visually or with better sound effects or be more obvious or something I'm not sure. Shooting bonus items is a big part of the OG as is the branching paths. Making this feel rewarding is important. Overall the game comes recommended if you understand that it's designed for multiple play throughs to see all the endings, unlock all the weapons, earn all achievements etc. The shortness of the campaign, the lack of varied game modes as well as the 'not quite as satisfying combat as it could be' hold it back a little but it's still a good game and worth a recommend.

A decent enough remake of the arcade game. For unlimited ammo, keep spamming R while shooting.

June 2024

As I sit down to recount my experiences with the remake of "The House of the Dead," a flood of memories washes over me like a relentless tide. You see, I've been a devout fan of this classic arcade shooter since its inception, spending countless hours in dimly lit arcades, gripping that trusty plastic gun as if my life depended on it. So, when news of a remake surfaced, I was simultaneously excited and apprehensive. Would it do justice to the original's eerie charm and adrenaline-pumping gameplay? Allow me to illuminate. First and foremost, let me address the visuals. The team behind this remake has done a commendable job of breathing new life into the decaying corridors of the Curien Mansion. Every decrepit hallway, every grotesque monstrosity that lurches forth from the shadows, is rendered with a level of detail that would have been unthinkable in my youth. And yet, despite the graphical overhaul, there remains an unmistakable sense of fidelity to the original art style, a testament to the developers' reverence for the source material. But visuals alone do not a great game make. No, it is in the gameplay department where this remake truly shines. From the moment I picked up my controller (for alas, my days of wielding plastic firearms are long behind me), I was transported back to a time when reflexes were king and every missed shot felt like a dagger to the heart. The core shooting mechanics are as tight and responsive as ever, prompting me to lean into every twist and turn of the mansion's labyrinthine halls with the same gusto as I did in my youth. Of course, no discussion of "The House of the Dead" would be complete without mention of its B-movie-inspired narrative. And let me tell you, dear reader, the cheesiness is alive and well in this remake. From the delightfully hammy voice acting to the laughably melodramatic plot twists, it's clear that the developers understand what made the original game so endearing to legions of fans. In an industry increasingly obsessed with gritty realism and cinematic spectacle, it's refreshing to see a game embrace its campy roots with such gusto. In conclusion, "The House of the Dead" remake is a lovingly crafted homage to a beloved classic. It captures the essence of the original while modernizing it in all the right ways, resulting in a nostalgia-fueled romp through a zombie-infested nightmare that is as thrilling today as it was decades ago. Whether you're a seasoned veteran of the arcade scene or a newcomer looking to experience a piece of gaming history, this remake is sure to satisfy your craving for undead mayhem. So grab your weapon of choice, steel your nerves, and prepare to enter the house where nightmares are made manifest.
