![]() ![]() Recently, however, I found myself tumbling down a rabbit hole, Alice in Wonderland-style, that revealed to me the existence of some weird and wonderful ports of this zany title, along with a spin-off and even a sequel that were all released exclusively in Japan. Other than a typing version of The House of The Dead: Overkill: Extended Cut in 2013, this was the extent of this series' releases in the West. I'm sure most who are at least aware of The Typing of the Dead know that it originally started life in '99 in Japanese arcades, before being ported to Dreamcast and PC in 2000, with English versions for both releasing in America (but strangely not Europe) a year after that in 2001. For an uncoordinated person like me, who spends his time typing about pointless gubbins on the internet, the keyboard is my weapon of choice for zombie slaying. Who would've thought that taking the zombie-splattering action (and beautiful B-Movie voice acting) of The House of the Dead 2 and turning it into a typing game would've been such a great idea? Sega, that's who. If you have never played The Typing of the Dead, then newsflash: you should. ![]()
