The House of the Dead 2 is a light gun shooter and the sequel to the original House of the Dead game developed by Sega AM1 for the Naomi arcade hardware. Similar to the previous players must shoot the creatures and save as many innocent people as you can. Unlike the previous game, players can now reload the gun automatically by aiming outside the screen without pulling the trigger. It also incorporates a branching path system that allows players to take a variety of different routes leading to the same point in the game’s story. The story takes place in Venice, Italy on February 26, 2000 after the Curien Mansion incident. AMS agents, James Taylor and Gary Stewart, are sent to investigate the strange events in the city and put an end to this new case. Friends… the door of fate shall open.

  1. HOTD2 is my favorite game, and I bet this is the best shooting game ever! …Of course only in my opinion, though… But I’m sure this game is quite an awesome masterpiece of SEGA! Unfortunately, I play this game only in arcade center because I don’t own this game for PC… And worst of all, I don’t have Wii either! That makes me so sad…;_;

  2. This is a good game but this is not my favourite game because of one damn thing, unresponsiveness! Whenever I shoot a zombie, it doesn’t die! I have to shoot it like 3 times for it to die! By 3 times, I mean three reloads! Don’t even get me started on HOTD 3! (It’s my favourite light gun game but come on, the mutant’s health! Unbelievable! You have to shoot for example a chubby zombie. You have to shoot it’s leg off, arm, and shoot it’s stomach! UNFRIGGINGBELIEVEABLE!)
