house of the dead games...?

Question

do they make these games for the ps2? i've only seen it when if first came out for the dreamcast and since then, only in the arcade. I would love to have this game if possible.

Answer 1

Sega was and is the producer of the Arcade game and line of HOTD line of games. That being said that why it was released on the Dreamcast in 1998. Unless Sega gets a console on the market that can compete with PS3, WII, and xbox360 the DEAD may never come to console. The MAME emulator has had the game somewhat emulated sence 1996 although it dont work properly yet, still.

Here is some trivia about it:

Because of its graphic content, House of the Dead (or HOTD for shorts) and its sequels became centers for video game controversy, particularly in 2000, when the city of Indianapolis, Indiana used the game as an example in an attempt to pass an ordinance requiring minors get parental consent before being able to play violent video games in arcades. The ordinance was eventually struck down at the appellate Federal court level on the grounds that it violated First Amendment rights.

The movie version of "The House of the Dead" had next to nothing to do with its game counterpart (as all game-to-movie conversions go), but it did have an interesting twist : one of the survivors of the zombie rampage was named Curien (the villain of HOTD), and AMS agents Rogan and G appear at the film's end.

Answer 2

To the best of my knowledge, there's never been a House of the Dead for the PS2. It's really a shame because the Guncon would have been great for the game. Only downside is that Sega would probably have to buy the rights to use the gun from Namco.

There was one for the X-Box.

Answer 3

I don't think that they make those kinds of games for PS2. All I know is that there's only some of those games for arcade.
