House of the Dead 2 for PCHouse of the Dead 3 for PCIn “The House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return” for Nintendo Wii, players will be able to play both versions of the game, battling the relentless attack of bloodthirsty zombies with steady aim and a quick trigger finger. Using the new Wii Zapper or the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, players will experience branching storylines with over six game modes including Arcade Mode and Time Attack modes that will test their shooting skills. The House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return features an engaging single-player campaign, plus a co-op multiplayer mode for up to two players for countless hours of zombie shooting action.

Sega’s The House of the Dead is famous for its heart-pounding pace and the great visual detail of the vast armies of unique enemies. Blasting through legions of grotesque zombies and mutated monsters, players eventually face-off against colossal boss creatures that will test the accuracy and skill of every Wii gamer. No word yet if this game shoots like Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles or the much-requested 1:1 aiming.

“The House of the Dead franchise has been revamped for today’s gamer looking for fast-paced shooting action on the Wii” commented Gary Knight, Marketing Director of SEGA Europe. “Utilising the new Wii Zapper, the player can get the renowned light gun experience in their own home.”

Let’s hope they haven’t revamped the insanely cheesy, and thus hilarious, voice acting…
