@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games oh man I receive playing overkill for the first time and I still find that game to be bonkers in all honesty. In terms of it being a house of the dead game I definitely think its on the lower scale in terms of the others haha

I laughed my butt off when I got the game.
It’s so over the top and comes together so well, from the atmosphere to the characters, the dialogue, settings and the music!
Offensive at times, but in the best possible way. Such a funny game.I always wished that the sequel did get the green light, but after all these years, I appreciate it being a one off.
This way it remains really unique.@OutofPrintArchive@mstdn.games it is really unique! I also died when I first played it haha, i honestly loved everything about it except for the gunplay compared to the other house of the dead games on Wii.
There was a sequel in the works for this game!?!? I didn’t know that in all honesty. I remember when this came out but I was fairly young so I wasn’t allowed to get it at the time. Playing it years later was an experience of all time though lol
@ayysturg@mstdn.games
I’m not sure how far it got in development or if it only was in the concept stage. But they did want to make a second one.
