House of the Dead: Overkill
House of the Dead: Overkill House of the Dead: Overkill House of the Dead: Overkill House of the Dead: Overkill House of the Dead: Overkill House of the Dead: Overkill House of the Dead: Overkill
They’ve come for brains, you’ll give them bullets!

The House of the Dead: OVERKILL™ charges you with mowing down waves of infected, blood-thirsty zombies in a last-ditch effort to survive Bayou City and uncover the horrific truth behind the origins of the House of the Dead.

Survival horror as it's never been seen before! A pulp-style take on the classic SEGA light-gun shooter series. Back when the famous Agent G was still fresh out of the academy, he teamed up with hard-boiled bad-ass Agent Washington to investigate stories of mysterious disappearances in small-town Louisiana. Little did they know what blood-soaked mutant horror would await them in the streets and swamps of Bayou City.

Features

Pulp Funk Horror.
Zombie cool, one of the most popular shooter classics injected with a whole new retro b-movie look.

An utterly in-your-face zombie-dismembering blast.
Non-stop light-gun style action on Wii, blow apart zombies for high-score thrills.

Superb co-op action on Wii.
Bring a friend and play the game as intended in your own buddy action movie as two of the meanest characters in video gaming.

Relentless, gore-drenched, over-the-top action.
Only the coolest, most cold-hearted agent's going to keep his head against the zombie flood. Use "Slow-Mofo Time" to make the perfect head-popping shot and "Evil Eye" to spot moments of opportunity that'll send the whole environment up in flames.

Wiimote reactions.
Get knee-deep in the dead with motion-sensitive Wii-controls. Shuck a shotgun and when the zombies get too close, pistol whip jaws off or cave some heads in with the stock of your pump-action – all in stomach-churning close-up.

Whining for it will not help your chances.

Do you honestly think you are the only person here who wants to win something? I doubt any of us ever win anything so everyone's chances are equal.

BTW Mywii admins you might want to make a note for the competition that you can't win the game if you are younger than 15 years of age.

The game has an MA15+ rating so a lot of members here would not be allowed to buy this by themselves. So if they were to win this game there would probably be a lot of unhappy parents out there. Just thought I would let you guys know.

Thats half the site out of the way

i like how you think sharpie

We'll probably have like a parent notification that their child is entering in this comp or something. We don't want any future high school shooters.

You won't be able to get this at retail until Wednesday/Thursday but JB-HiFi is the place to go. Get the big bang box, you'll want the two hand cannons, trust me!

What motion shaking? your supposed to shoot the zombies (i mean mutants) before they get near you

RE:UC doesnt have calibration... i can't get the gun shells to work accurately with it HoTD starting to grow on me, maybe beacuse i'm duel wielding through the whole game.

get it at jb hifi, its the cheapest place to currently get it.

yeah wiiinpants Washington needs some therapy... and i think there is a bit too much swearing.

I don't think it is meant to be scary...well. Shooting mutants that are hungry for your blood might be scary to younger players.
