House of the Dead 2 is the sequel to the original Sega
hit, House of The Dead. While I have only played the original
in the arcade, I bought the Dreamcast version of 2( for
only 5 bucks,probably even cheaper now!)
The game itself plays just like it's original arcade version
it was ported from,which for those who were lucky enough
to play, know that it was quite fun. Overall the game
stacks up well with 4 modes of gameplay(arcade,original,boss,
and training) and makes good use out of the light gun
accessory(which Sega didn't provide to the US dreamcast
user, you had to buy a 3rd party gun).
My only real problem with the game is trying to play
without the gun, trying to shoot with the controller pretty
much ruins the game, it's hard enough with a gun, not
having one makes the game nearly impossible. For anyone
who still has a dreamcast laying around, hit up your local
used game shop and try to pick this one up, cause it's
a forgotten classic.
