What Gamespot Users have to say about The House of the Dead: Overkill
- Rating:4
I can't believe anyone is rating this game above a 5... Are we not playing the same game or something?
After playing house of the dead two, and hearing the laughable (yet enjoyable) voice acting, it doesn't seem like it would be much of a challenge to make an improvement. As a huge rails shooter fan, and a fan of number 2... Read Full Review

This is a filthy little mindlessly violent gem that will turn you into a frothng zombie killing addict.
This is the kind of game that isn't going to change the face of the gaming world. But as a HOTD fan for years, this is the game I've been waiitng for. Im not sure the causal gamer will understand why this game is so awes... Read Full Review

House of the dead: thrill or kill
To say that the house of the dead overkill is a bad game is a misjudged statement. True there are many bad points too the game as hardcore gamers will notice straight away: The lack of story mode game play, bonus feature... Read Full Review

There is a button that reads "More Mutants."
While scientists theorize as to why the dinosaur went extinct, nobody will ask any questions as to why the light-gun shooter is on the endangered species list of genres. Nor will PETA or the WWF have any remote interest ... Read Full Review

Good rental if you got 3 hours to kill with a friend!

HotD: OK is an amazing on-rails shooter and it's crude mature content is enough to keep you hooked.
The Good: Super fun gory shooting, crude and rude dialog, fun loving characters, hilarious story, excellent replay value, not frustrating, fun boss fights The Bad: Too few levels, may be too easy for some, everything ... Read Full Review

Over the top, interesting story... but is it long enough?
