New Overkill trailers show off zombie-filled ER, killer clowns

by David Hinkle { Dec 22nd 2008 at 11:54AM }

While these killer clowns aren't the kind from outer space, they're still some tough hombres, as you can see in the pair of new videos for upcoming House of the Dead: Overkill. We don't have to tell you how excited we are for this one, because you all usually share our sentiments in the comments following each post on the subject. So, no more wasting time on needless text. Cruise past the break for the two NSFW videos (there's some curse words thrown around).

I love the grindhouse-esque theme to the game. That is awesome.

I've already pre-ordered so I'm on a media blackout on both this and MadWorld, and omg its tough not to watch those.

Good Gameplay. Co-Op. Alternate paths through the game. Increasing difficulty. upgradable weapons.

That's all I ask for in lightgun games, and they then have my purchase in writing. Ghost squad basically fulfilled that need for me (and still does now) and now H0tD overkill seems to be set to do the same.

Sega: If you read this, please please please give players an option to turn off profanity during the game. I don't have an issue with fake blood (within reason) in a game that revolves around shooting zombies, but I don't want to listen to someone swearing.

Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles already fills the "awesome Wii lightgun game" slot, so I won't hesitate to skip purchasing House of the Dead Overkill if Sega gives players no option but to listen to Samuel L. Jackson-esque quips throughout the game.

I'm not asking Sega to pull swearing from the game, just that they give players the option whether or not they want to hear profanity while shooting zombies.
