@@axinhedgelion8417 that's how the old nes gun worked, the gun had a photosensor and screen would go black or white for a single frame after your shot and hit or missed a duck, and the photosensor would determine that way how to proceed in the game. being in line of sight it's just aiming.
I love how they upgraded everything, even the *cheesiness*. They made the characters move around like failed Shakespearean actors in their cutscenes. It really fits the cheesy, cliche dialog we know and love.
One of my favorite changes was how the first scientist actually gives the photograph to Rogan, it better explains how we can see this photo at the end of each level.
And how he doesn't go down in a little slap and he actually has his throat torn and he's writing around in agony until you kill the very first creature of the game
@@dannyn6558 I'm aware that you can see the photo but Rogan/G never actually takes it. The guy just dies with it in his hand and then the agents just go off to do their thing.
This was clearly made by people who love the original. Every little animation touch up like rogan spinning his gun and enemies that previously came out of nowhere now getting a little arrival is great. Horde mode deffinatly feels like bringing the fourth game back in a way.
Nah, if they loved the original, they wouldn't have done such a shit job, full stop. I'm sorry, but if you can't program a light gun game to allow people to accurately shoot enemies, like in a light gun game, then you clearly don't love the original. I know we all have different opinions, but the remake is fucking trash, no original OST, shitty controls, game lags and looks muddy as hell, it's not a remake, it's a demake, and a fucking travesty that it is associated with one of the greatest light gun games of all time. It's not a surprise that the game was released cheaply (for a Switch game) with little publicity. Even Nintendo, Sega and the developers knew they were selling a lemon, hence the cheaper price and muted promos before release.
@@RonsaRRR actually yes, it's worst if you compare it The Original against Scarlet Dawn, but hey they stick the Original and i think both game have different engine. that's explain Scarlet Dawn Boss Design is more Detail than Remake expecially design for Nintendo Switch
Even though this arcade is forgotten long time ago, its good to know that devs trying their best to live. Thanks to them for making my childhood fun by playing their arcades with friends
Its probably the LEAST FORGOTTEN arcade game in history wtf are you people smoking...clearly something tho since you're buying a lazy reskin with no new story, content or anything. The modern gamer is just an open wallet for developers at this point, and the worst part is they're too blind to realize how bad things are. Congrats bro you can pay to replay the same game like you did in the past...
I will admit they did a decent job since the original source code was lost years ago. If the code wasn’t lost, I’d like to imagine development would be much more smoother for them.
Okay then, how about a bet. How will House of the Dead 2 Remake turn out? Surely the Magician fight should be better since they have the source code for that one, right?
But it doesn't matter. This is a remake. It was always meant to be developed from scratch, unlike a remaster like the Silent Hill collection. The source code is kind of useless in this case. The only thing they wanted the source code for was the arcade version to be included as an extra "Nostalgia mode"
Wait why would the source code matter in this case, this is a complete remake from the ground up in fact having to stick to old source code would be even harder in this case.
Remake done quite a good job to respect the source materials. Only things that bug me are lighting which is overtuned and almost ruin the eerie and unsettling atmosphere of original. Also, blood shading looks bit cartoony and some inconsistency in models.
Yeah, the models always seem to blend in with the environment in the remake, meanwhile in Saturn each models are contrast to its surroundings. Maybe it would've been a better choice if they stuck with the old style while giving necessary graphical upgrade
Yeah honestly too much blood coming out of something makes it look a little silly, while tiny-no burst of it at all and instead showing it trickle out of wounds is far grittier and scarier
To see REAL SS standard just take a look at the great Virtua Cop 2 port Am2 made at the time, versus a rushed (alpha?) port done by Tantalus (the same which ported Wipeout btw)..
@@GOTTAMAK3IT There was no Dreamcast port of HOTD 1. Dreamcast started with HOTD 2. Up until now, the only two official versions of the first game were on the Sega Saturn and the Arcade. I will say in the Saturn game's defense that it PLAYED extremely well, and there were also many worse-looking games for that console. I would put in as "middle of the road" graphically for the Saturn but top-tier in the light gun gameplay department.
The PC version was the one I played and it had the worse graphics sadly, thanks to the remake I was finally able to see what many things were suppose to present in the original PC port
When I was 5... Me and my Dad used to play this... My Dad cried when he saw this remake... I'm 20 now and he wants to play with me... Because we never got to beat the final boss... It's Redemption Time...
that's highly relatable i also had quality time playing this game with my father and aunt and i never had the balls to play this alone i was also 5 or 6 at the time
Lol the fact they animated Rogan's lips for the ending scene made it looked so funny; I've always thought that scene worked better as an internal monologue, and the only spoken line was "Goodbye Curien".
I spent $10 with my older brother to finally be able to beat this game at the arcade in the mall. It sucks the mall was closed down but to this day I haven't found an arcade shooter game that brought this level of excitement like this one.
The updated direction is more realistic but it definitely makes the zombies feel a lot less readable because everything is darker with the more realistic lighting engine and everything’s overall duller color tones. Like even tho I know the green was prolly used for censoring blood before, I kinda would prefer it in the remake too because then there would be something popping color wise onscreen.
This problem affects basically every modern remakes. The lack of color palette back in the day makes everything that much more identifiable. These days devs use "realistic" colors and add extra details that makes the important objects no longer as distinguishable from the environment. Same problem with Spyro and Crash trilogy remasters
@@setiawanraestloz3504 it isn't that big of a problem in the crash n sane trilogy imo because the new textures still fit with the original theme and i'm pretty sure that most of the textures still resemble the original.
This is what remake should have done, respect the old work, try to keep it close to original as possible with new graphics, ! No one ask you to mess up content and change the game just because “ for new players “!
@@discotech6178 re2 are being cut off content also but it's not bad as re3 ! Let's just hope they not mess up characters personality like re 2 and cit content like re 3!

Hopefully we will see the same treatment for HOTD 2. Which i used to play a lot of. Never got to play the first one. Also would like to see Area 51 & CarnEvil.
Graphics are amazing and the little touches like the photograph make it so much more coherent. But the biggest improvement is definitely the voice acting. I like that you kept the lines the same as the original, even if they were a bit weirdly worded (translation probably) it's a nice touch and is definitely something a fan would do. Amazing work, honestly the best HOTD work in a long long time!
Broke out my Saturn and the stunner to revisit this after seeing the remake. The saturn version is a ton of fun even though the graphics were rushed. I'll pick up the remake when the physical release drops. They did a great job with it.
Why is Curien's epic line from my childhood muted lol. Anyway, I love that the remake kept the Tuxedo sprite of Rogan which I loved to play with at the arcades in comparison to the Suit sprite in the game ports.
It's because this game in particular had the best voice acting from all of the games, i mean, it barely has some dialogues but yeah, for the time they were good Now the sequel...
The Original is still better than the Remake, but still They follow The Original Source Material on the Remake, Unlike capcom and square enix they reimagining their games like RE2, RE3, and FF7 which is not faithful to the Orginal Source Material.
@@candystriperosesco.823 The Problem of RE2R was they cut some monster like Brad Zombie, Zombie Hand, Crow, Giant Cockroach, and any other enemies, but I'll take RE2R over RE3R and FF7R.
Meh, those remakes were actually better. Though I do wish theres a classic mode gameplay. FF7 mislead us when they said theres classic gameplay, which we assumed its going to have turn based like the classic. But it never was.
I wonder why they decided not to do the credits like the original walking back through the enviroments to get back to your car? It was quite solemn going back through the areas you'd been blasting monsters previously but now are empty. Not a huge deal but nicer than screenshots and you've already got the enviroments so why not?
I'll be honest. If nostalgia was the sweet spot the devs were trying to hit, they should have remixed some of the boss themes instead of completely changing them as well as some standout changes to key designs. I miss the gothic washed out color pallet as opposed to the warm one in the new one. As well as the slightly off models of the older ones that hit the uncanny valley just right. Too much accurate details can often drown the intended aesthetic.
@@ShutUpBubi or they wanted the cheesy dialogue to stay in order to keep things familiar and not make the game too serious or just because it adds to the experience
Fun fact regarding the Saturn version. The port was outsourced unlike previous conversions (Virtua Fighter/Cop,etc). Sega wanted it out before the '98 Japanese Dreamcast launch and essentially forced an alpha build to market. In an interview with one of the guys that worked on it said most of what we see in the Saturn version is placeholder models and textures. Ouch. Saying that though, I still prefer it over the remake hah. Sega Japan goofed again later on as the Dreamcast HotD2 port was supposed to include an arcade perfect HotD1 conversion. Again, they wanted the game out in time for the '99 western DC launch so canned the port. Yet left an attract video in the game teasing us all.
It got the nostalgic feels to it even the janky simulation aiming get me the nostalgic feel of aiming properly if you would mind in my perspective the voice give its new breath of life somehow issues like the lighting and contrast should be fix to make it more scarier for a remake its already good enough
Of course the sega version did not really scare me in anyway because now I realized it was so bright in terms of its ambience of the surroundings on how the game was compared to the switch remake version with upgraded graphics that can create such dark ambience, the game looks much more scarier! But still, nothing beats the feeling of the classic game! Nonetheless, both were and is great!
The original arcade version wasn't nearly as bright as the saturn version. I recall that there were different blood colours on different machines though; sometimes red, and sometimes green (for the enemies).
Also the Saturn version is literally just an alpha (like they didn't even finish developing the Saturn port most of the textures and sprites where placeholders as said by one of the devs at the time.....yikes)
3:30 they ruined chariot. In the original When he shed off this armor and exposed his flesh he looked way scarier. In the remake he looks like a blob. Even they ruined his death cry. Chariot’s death cry in the original scared the shit out of me.
His death cry was recycled to other bosses tbh. Though I do wish they at least kept one for one of the bosses. Chariot would fit since he is the first boss.
Not just that, but the Magician looks a lot less cooler looking (plus I heard they botched the soundtrack). I'd get this if they provided the original version (just to play the OG version mainly), which isn't the case so nope, no thanks. Watching this made me want to go replay the game, been a while.
@@raccooncitizen3100 I change my mind, Chariot does look weird. Magician doesn't give much of a threat, in fact, he looks really like a jester that lost his clothe. Zombies animation feels stiff It's great that devs made this, but it felt like it need more polishing.
Wow, Rogan and G are looking fly! I wonder if they'll include the option for having the more cheesy voice acting from the original... Probably not, but it would be neat.
It's a remake. Remaster's graphics would not so detailed like this. The textures, models, characters, lighting/shading and environments are built up from scratch, entirely different.
@@kirin7725 Well said. I'm getting sick of people who can't tell the difference between a Remake and a Remaster. Because some get mad. So for example here this girl maybe said that this remake is a remaster but some people can say that a Remaster is a Remake. Like the fuckin GTA Trilogy.
Remake, you can tell by comparison. Even the animation and voice acting is different even though the whole plot and voice lines are pretty much the same.
For me, it feels like a 50/50, the remake is alright and looks better but you can tell there are some small issues with it. But regardless, I'm glad to see the game come back. I have fond memories of playing it with my dad.
What I really like about the bosses in the first game is that you really get a vendetta against each one and a reason to fight them beyond it just being the logical thing to do. Chariot kills (or at the very least badly wounds) Sophie, Hangedman is the one who takes her in the first place and leads her to Chariot, Hermit stands directly inbetween you and Curien, at a point in the game where you’ve seen a lot of his horrible deeds and Rogan has already built up a severe hatred of him, and Magician kills Curien and denies you your justice for Sophie. The other games don’t really give you as many reasons to be invested in the fights.
Nice bro, great.. 😁👍 Although the remake version has much better graphics, details, and so on, I much prefer the original version. Because I played this game in the original version, I think the original version is far more legendary and imprints on my mind and memories, hehe.. 🙏😁
On-rails-shooters were killed by FPSs. And you need a light gun to have the full experience Gundam UC0096 Guitar Anime MV th-cam.com/video/zy7aLeW6Ek8/w-d-xo.html King of Fighters 15 Nameless theme Guitar MV th-cam.com/video/m97jSqxIg0w/w-d-xo.html Gundam Hathaway Main Theme Guitar MV (Senkou) th-cam.com/video/c_18SeD_sYI/w-d-xo.html
They were killed by arcades going under as that's where they made their real money, not console sales. They were still making arcade lightgun games well into the mid-00s, long after FPS had solidified itself. The lack of a lightgun does damage the experience quite a bit though. They're about rapid precision shooting, not centering a cursor on enemies.
IN teh remake, some scenes are for me a downgrade comparing to the original, maybe this is because the original source code was lost and they need to make it from scratch?
NO. That's the case with remastered video games. They are usually the same original game but the graphics are upscaled to higher resolution. This HOTD Remake is REMAKE. Everything's is built on scratch because they want to release a new version instead of rerelease the old one.
Graphics improvement on the remake are something truly beautiful, but I gotta admit that the original game's bosses look really terrifying compated to the remake ones
Despite the Switch's limited hardware, this still looks great. Though, I hope they lower the shine a bit. Everything just looks too bright and hurts my eyes.
It looks softer to me. Not that shining unless you turn up your screen brightness up. This remake is built with Unity engine. This kind of graphics are common on Android games
Well the voice acting is better, but still cheesy as hell and read word for word. Just as it should be. 6:11 Acting perfection right here. 8:28 They didn't bother to change the coloration/background effects? *sees zombie sophie* Oh. Well, in that case it fits better for that ending.
I see so many videos lately showing the Saturn version with green blood. Why is everyone changing it to green in the settings? I don't understand the trend.. I play every once in a while but I leave the blood default red
The lighting in the remake is f*cking terrible. The graphics and gameplay may be much better, but that lighting almost ruins it for me. They should've stuck to that grey, drizzly overcast asthetic that the original was going for and just added fog to it. 2:20
I always got the ending where Sophie ran at the screen in the original. Is the "Sophie is a zombie" ending an alternate ending? Like.. a bad ending or something?
Yep, it's a bad ending that you get with less than 62,000 points and a score ending in 0 (no continues used). If your score's one digit is anything other than 0 and you have less than 62,000 points, the ending cuts off with the view of the mansion from the car, leaving Sophie's death implied. If you got more than 62,000 points, you get the good ending where Sophie lives.
Nice, I want to get this asap!! I hope the next Switch system has full compatibility with the entire Switch Library. I do wish the Zombies exploded in chunkier bits like in the original...that feels dissapointing.
I still prefer the old graphics- something charming about the pixelated texture really brings me back. The other one looks like a generic shooter which to be honest not that interesting
Looks and sounds amazing! this is what hardcore fans wanted! The only issue is the ammount of light, it takes away some of the gloomy atmosphere of the original
@@diegodjjsdnsjsk I like the original more of course, but this is smth fresh that kinda keeps alive the series. Retro is always better no doubt about that
Hoping for HOTD 2 and 3 for a remake also. This one is really awesome. its just I Love the old magician because the new one is ez to shoot while the new one is like its over smooth.

Saying that though, I still prefer it over the remake hah.
Sega Japan goofed again later on as the Dreamcast HotD2 port was supposed to include an arcade perfect HotD1 conversion. Again, they wanted the game out in time for the '99 western DC launch so canned the port. Yet left an attract video in the game teasing us all.
While I got my issues with the Saturn port if that's truly the alpha build then wow that's actually seriously impressive.
I am glad they didn’t change the dialogue it appears and hired good voice actors which helps
They lost the original code of the original game that's why they need to hire some voice actors and remake the entire game with their own
It got the nostalgic feels to it even the janky simulation aiming get me the nostalgic feel of aiming properly if you would mind in my perspective the voice give its new breath of life somehow issues like the lighting and contrast should be fix to make it more scarier for a remake its already good enough
Tbh, the ost with this intro is really good
Of course the sega version did not really scare me in anyway because now I realized it was so bright in terms of its ambience of the surroundings on how the game was compared to the switch remake version with upgraded graphics that can create such dark ambience, the game looks much more scarier! But still, nothing beats the feeling of the classic game! Nonetheless, both were and is great!
The original arcade version wasn't nearly as bright as the saturn version. I recall that there were different blood colours on different machines though; sometimes red, and sometimes green (for the enemies).
Also the Saturn version is literally just an alpha (like they didn't even finish developing the Saturn port most of the textures and sprites where placeholders as said by one of the devs at the time.....yikes)
3:30 they ruined chariot. In the original When he shed off this armor and exposed his flesh he looked way scarier. In the remake he looks like a blob. Even they ruined his death cry. Chariot’s death cry in the original scared the shit out of me.
His death cry was recycled to other bosses tbh.
Though I do wish they at least kept one for one of the bosses. Chariot would fit since he is the first boss.
There's always that one fan
Not just that, but the Magician looks a lot less cooler looking (plus I heard they botched the soundtrack). I'd get this if they provided the original version (just to play the OG version mainly), which isn't the case so nope, no thanks.
Watching this made me want to go replay the game, been a while.
@@raccooncitizen3100 I change my mind, Chariot does look weird.
Magician doesn't give much of a threat, in fact, he looks really like a jester that lost his clothe.
Zombies animation feels stiff
It's great that devs made this, but it felt like it need more polishing.
@@amspook sure is
Wow, Rogan and G are looking fly!
I wonder if they'll include the option for having the more cheesy voice acting from the original... Probably not, but it would be neat.
アメリカナイズされてる感じで怖さが無くなってますね、ゾンビの服装も執事っぽいのまでラフな格好になってるし
Loving the new graphics but nothing can beat the old nostalgia graphics
i mean i get the original is always gonna be number 1, but the remakes voice acting sounds more i dunno, dynamic and emotional?
When I was 13, I played HOTD arcade, so, I see that graphics are amazing, these blending and textures graphics, on Saturn, this graphics are textured.
The lightening kills all the mood
OMG,This brings back so much memories 😭😭😭
Oh snap didn't know they were remastering this
It's a remake. Remaster's graphics would not so detailed like this. The textures, models, characters, lighting/shading and environments are built up from scratch, entirely different.
It's a remake bro
@@kirin7725 Well said. I'm getting sick of people who can't tell the difference between a Remake and a Remaster. Because some get mad. So for example here this girl maybe said that this remake is a remaster but some people can say that a Remaster is a Remake. Like the fuckin GTA Trilogy.
Remake, you can tell by comparison. Even the animation and voice acting is different even though the whole plot and voice lines are pretty much the same.
I used to playing this game with my dad when I was 5 years old. Damn I miss the old days
For me, it feels like a 50/50, the remake is alright and looks better but you can tell there are some small issues with it. But regardless, I'm glad to see the game come back. I have fond memories of playing it with my dad.
oh it's been 20 years I didn't heard those dialogues, and yet I am still remember it
What I really like about the bosses in the first game is that you really get a vendetta against each one and a reason to fight them beyond it just being the logical thing to do.
Chariot kills (or at the very least badly wounds) Sophie, Hangedman is the one who takes her in the first place and leads her to Chariot, Hermit stands directly inbetween you and Curien, at a point in the game where you’ve seen a lot of his horrible deeds and Rogan has already built up a severe hatred of him, and Magician kills Curien and denies you your justice for Sophie. The other games don’t really give you as many reasons to be invested in the fights.
I didn’t even know there was a remake.
Pretty cool.
Looks ok and I wanted to get it as a fan of the series, but lots of impressions are saying the controls aren't very good.
Nice bro, great.. 😁👍
Although the remake version has much better graphics, details, and so on, I much prefer the original version. Because I played this game in the original version, I think the original version is far more legendary and imprints on my mind and memories, hehe.. 🙏😁
I always liked the tour in reverse when you beat the game
Miss my childhood I was started to playing this in 2000
I find it weird that being knocked into a wall and dying from Injury turns people into a zombie.
I think Chariot's blade may have been contaminated by Curien's bioweapon.
@@MrStickman1997 that would make sense because I haven't thought about it
@@simplename1693 well it had blood(probably from other zombies) on it so ig it infected her
On-rails-shooters were killed by FPSs. And you need a light gun to have the full experience

They were killed by arcades going under as that's where they made their real money, not console sales. They were still making arcade lightgun games well into the mid-00s, long after FPS had solidified itself. The lack of a lightgun does damage the experience quite a bit though. They're about rapid precision shooting, not centering a cursor on enemies.
IN teh remake, some scenes are for me a downgrade comparing to the original, maybe this is because the original source code was lost and they need to make it from scratch?
That is the case
NO. That's the case with remastered video games. They are usually the same original game but the graphics are upscaled to higher resolution. This HOTD Remake is REMAKE. Everything's is built on scratch because they want to release a new version instead of rerelease the old one.
This could easily be a PC VR game instead of Nintendo Switch only one.
Care to explain
I think they will port this to other console too later
it's already confirmed it will come out on pc
I honestly love the idea of VR House of the Dead.
@@merimkastrat5846 that would be awesome
It's like Resident Evil models and mixed with GMod models like SFM
The House of the Dead continues to prove that guy with gun > literally any monster.
Dudeeeeee, I remember playing this every Saturday at the Arcades. Awesome game.
Graphics improvement on the remake are something truly beautiful, but I gotta admit that the original game's bosses look really terrifying compated to the remake ones
What about the Player 2 version of the cutscenes when using G?
You took the comment right out of me.
I hope they kept it in the game.
Huge improvement can't wait for this 😉
God this was on a local arcade once all the kids rushed to see who gets to play first now the arcade is gone but the memory is still here
Hahaha that voice line “oh no” “ow”
2:19 I forgot how bad the voice acting was in this game 😂😂😂
Despite the Switch's limited hardware, this still looks great. Though, I hope they lower the shine a bit. Everything just looks too bright and hurts my eyes.
It looks softer to me. Not that shining unless you turn up your screen brightness up. This remake is built with Unity engine. This kind of graphics are common on Android games
Well the voice acting is better, but still cheesy as hell and read word for word.
Just as it should be.
6:11
Acting perfection right here.
8:28
They didn't bother to change the coloration/background effects?
*sees zombie sophie*
Oh. Well, in that case it fits better for that ending.
I see so many videos lately showing the Saturn version with green blood. Why is everyone changing it to green in the settings? I don't understand the trend.. I play every once in a while but I leave the blood default red
Whats is the background song of this video?
The lighting in the remake is f*cking terrible. The graphics and gameplay may be much better, but that lighting almost ruins it for me. They should've stuck to that grey, drizzly overcast asthetic that the original was going for and just added fog to it. 2:20
Awesome, house of the dead is one of my favorite series since i was a kid
Does aiming work with the motion controls or something? How does aiming work?
You can play with the joycons aiming them at the screen. You can also play two player with a joy con each
Still needs s dedicated gun tho
@@craiggeddes7915 is there a camera or something that needs to be set up like with the wii?
How do you set up gyro to work
Man i still remember finished the first and the second game when im still on kindergarten
Good times
I had so much fun with House of the Dead on Saturn. It looks like it was done on an Etch-A-Sketch by comparison today
I wish there was a mode with the og graphics.
They traded clarity for atmosphere, it's not bad but I wished they did both
I think it's because the red filter all over the place
I always got the ending where Sophie ran at the screen in the original.
Is the "Sophie is a zombie" ending an alternate ending? Like.. a bad ending or something?
Yep, it's a bad ending that you get with less than 62,000 points and a score ending in 0 (no continues used). If your score's one digit is anything other than 0 and you have less than 62,000 points, the ending cuts off with the view of the mansion from the car, leaving Sophie's death implied. If you got more than 62,000 points, you get the good ending where Sophie lives.
@@Luigifan18 Oh... Crap..
I'm glad I tried my best then lmao
framerate feels like its dipping some maybe they can patch it
Dude, the first scientist in the remake is literally choking and croaking on his blood
Dr. Curien sounds like Alex Mason’s new voice actor from Black Ops Cold War
I used to play this on my mother's old laptop with other rail shooter games
wooow, no me lo creo, lo remakearon :0 que nostalgia :)
Nice, I want to get this asap!! I hope the next Switch system has full compatibility with the entire Switch Library. I do wish the Zombies exploded in chunkier bits like in the original...that feels dissapointing.
Es genial que sea fiel al original
I'm disgusted that they didn't use the same old cheesy voice clips. That's part of the charm.
I still prefer the old graphics- something charming about the pixelated texture really brings me back. The other one looks like a generic shooter which to be honest not that interesting
Good thing that you can still play it.
Now let newer generations of gamers play something that doesn't insult our eyes.
They love the bloom effects a lot... Omg.
I wonder why Hanged Man said "I'll finish you there" in the remake?
Remake looks cheap and horrible. The original is so much better and stylish.
Yeah but SEGA lost the original code
Can you develop a game with just a few people
"Game doesn't look great ah well"
"U M8K BETR GEM MAN"
@@ZombieOrgasm You should have said. I'm to old and I only play the original and don't enjoy new things.
@@Tallerranger what are you babbling even
They respected the orginal and did an awesome job definitely picking this up
古い方の独特の怖さがすき
What about the other ending? I want to see the comparison
I didn't know there's a remake of HOTD 1!? This is so cool!
This remake will release on all console and pc too
The first game i ever played in my entire life on Windows 98 and XP. Glad i completed the game one last time before it was deleted by strict parent😞
Looks and sounds amazing! this is what hardcore fans wanted! The only issue is the ammount of light, it takes away some of the gloomy atmosphere of the original
I'm hardcore and never wanted a remake like this! xD IMO original 1000x better yet
@@diegodjjsdnsjsk I like the original more of course, but this is smth fresh that kinda keeps alive the series. Retro is always better no doubt about that
4:40
Well that make sense about the zombie
He working with Umbrell- wait a minute THIS IS SEGA NOT CAPCOM!!
Hoping for HOTD 2 and 3 for a remake also. This one is really awesome. its just I Love the old magician because the new one is ez to shoot while the new one is like its over smooth.
They plan to remake HOTD 2, but no information for HOTD 3 remake
@@KendoGunSop remember the bad voice acting from HOTD 2? Wonder how that would work in the remark specially the voice acting.
They must remake the typing of the dead as well
that's how we remember the graphic when we were a kid
I see you're using the version of the game with green blood lol was that all that was available on the Sega Saturn?
There was a hidden cheat code to change it to red. You could even change it with a Gameshark too.
@@striderreborn1467 I see, I remember seeing both versions in the arcades and that just made me laugh as a kid
They should've remove the red filter and turn down the shine effect. So the Magician Boss will look darker like it should be. And no red forest
i love how the magician boss looks more cooler in the remake one 🔥
Got to say, it isn’t quite the same without the original music. The new OST is great, but the iconic tracks are sorely missed
They don't care homie they got your money and in 10 years they're gonna swipe it off your Switch too is the funniest part
@@ShutUpBubi I don’t own a switch. Maybe you’ll get someone else with that one
