So Sega has surprised us all today by unveiling a PC Sequel to The Typing of the Dead with The Typing of the Dead Overkill:

Here's one of the more comical shots I saw on the Steam page:

It also includes the original House of the Dead.
EDIT: They meant regular Overkill with that comment.
Legacy of Kain Collection is currently $5 on Steam-

But it's missing Blood Omen 1.
That's great and all, but what does it have to do with Typing of the Dead Overkill?Quote:

Just in time for Halloween. Capitalizing on the OCT 31st holiday (BTW, is totally OK with me). And everyone with poor typing skills is automatically excluded. Way to go Sega! If it includes the original arcade HOD, then I'm in.
Sadly it was a miscommunication on their part. It doesn't include the original Arcade HotD. They meant the original gameplay mode for Overkill.
EDIT:
Shenmue Confirmed for the holidays!:

Oh wait.. I wasn't.
Semmie might be on to something with his hate for Sega right now, Who the fuck was waiting for this?
Give us a HD PSN release of Jurassic Park : The Lost World or something, not typing of the dead.
Jesus.
Reped. Well, its better than another western RTS game, lol.Quote:

Now if you were saying the problem is they're not localizing enough games then yes I'd agree with you. But as for not making enough new Japanese games, that's dead wrong.Quote:

^This. I could see if I was still in grade school and this was the closest thing to playing video games during class (<3 Mario Teaches Typing), but jesus christ, that's like being excited for a rhythm game.Quote:

2 over the top settings meeting each other like this? Above and beyond.
Now to wait for Typing of the dead 3(HOTD4 Port). Any other typing games are bonus, under the requirement that they also come with ports of their non-typing versions.
