@@CherryPixelBun Can you imagine the pitch for Seaman at Sega? Board member: I've got an idea for a game, you're a human head attached to a fish floating in an aquarium tank, that's the basic premise of the game. Sega boss: marvelous! I love it! Give that guy a team and a fat budget!
I was thinking about this game a few weeks ago and I came to the conclusion that they all must have been high as fuck. I support this with the fact that that had to be the only way Sonic and the Black Knight was greenlit. It's also not so farfetched since Keita Takahashi created Katamari Damacy after going on a bender.
"We're going to bring one of our existing franchises into the educational market, and the best part is, at least 90% of the assets will be reuse of assets we've already created and paid for."
We legit had this in our secondary school in the UK (ages 12-16). Not sure if we were supposed to or if one of the "cool" teachers installed it but my God we spent hours playing this :D
Pretty because the main campaign just reuses the voicelines from HotD2, while the tutorial mode was probably made much later and they were able to learn from their mistakes.
This is also a game that will occasionally spew vulgarities as I recall from when I played this years back, lol I remember one sentence clearly. "I inserted my finger and massaged." lmfao
I remember seeing House of the Dead in arcades before getting Typing of the Dead. My childhood disappoint at first was immeasurable but god if it wasn't a fun game once you got started.
You know what was the best typing assistant of all? MSDOS. I struggled greatly as a child to remember the commands to boot up my shareware Wolfenstein.
My Dad installed this on the family computer when I was 5 to teach me to type since the school's typing homework was too obtuse and flatly boring. Oddly enough, I learned to touchtype very quickly from this showing that this was indeed better than many "serious" typing tutors.
They actually changed it in the Japan only PS2 port. Instead they had PS2s. There were also a few Japan only ports to tablets and DS too. Also a sequel musing House of the Dead 3 as well.
Wouldn't the PAL/US version (no idea where you're from) be more difficult because they have a different keyboard layout? And the Japanese version even more so since they have a different keyboard layout *and* use three different alphabets, none of which are the Latin alphabet / Romanji?
@@otaking3582 I live in the US. For the Japanese Dreamcast version it allows use of the US keyboard by means of having a Romanji mode. Therefore, it is fully playable. With the PAL release, there are a few instances where the American keyboard prevents you from continuing (due to special characters) but the biggest problem was in the tutorial mode so it didnt detract from the overall experience. I cant believe that I havnt played The Typing of the Dead: Overkill. I better get to it!
One touch I absolutely adored was the game's take on the Magician fight. To really get across the idea of it being the quarter-sucker it was in the arcade, if you typo at any point in the first phase, Magician will straight up smack you. They say the final boss should be the final exam of all the skills you've learned thus far, and I can't think of a boss in video games that makes that more literal than TotD's Magician. And I will *never* tire of that boss theme! Hope the 2021 remake of House of the Dead gets a typing tutor version as well, just out of tradition at this point, and so the TotD Magician fight can take its place as the final boss fight it deserves to be.
LOL! This thing has network multiplayer mode? LAN parties at Clint's place must be amazing! Also, I would totally watch a live stream of that, unedited. :D
Sooo who else paused the video at 1:47 to read all the comics? Knowing in advance none of them would be that funny but feeling compelled to do it anyway just in case?
I played Typing of the Dead on Dreamcast / still have it with the Dreamcast keyboard in the box and played whatever version was released on Steam later. The mentions of Mavis Beacon being innocent and light in comparison make me laugh, I played Mavis Beacon teaches typing (I think it was version 3?) when I was very young and she legit made me cry by her scolding tone of voice when I didn't pass a typing test lol;
This could easily be the best typing game ever. Hopefully your video will inspire a few great new typing games in the years to come. Many people LOVE those games. There's dozens of us.
The first time i saw this game was on vacation in an Italian arcade of all places. And dear god, the Voice Acting. THE VOICE ACTING. It's so atrocious and campy, that it is awesome.

I had this for Dreamcast. Such an amazing game. I saw arcade machines in Japan, too, and it was hilarious seeing the big cabinets with Dreamcast keyboards strapped to the front.
@@thepirategamerboy12 for most people, yes. However, for me I already had a Dreamcast keyboard before this game was released so it was actually easier on the Dreamcast for me. :D
The layout of the title always had me reading it as "The the house of dead" in the arcade. I kinda humorously thought it was simulating fear like you're saying "the....THE.... house of DEAD!!"
The house of dead series has been my favorite since i was a little girl. When i heard they had this version i begged my dad to get it. I'm so glad you're covering it because it holds a special place to me.
I've put off watching this video for a few months as zombies and FPS are not my thing, but as a writer, this really entertains me. Wish I'd known about it in the '90s
I used to do stuff like the Donkey Kong cards, regularly. If I had finished building a piece of IKEA furniture, instead of throwing away the instructions, I'd take them to a public bathroom and leave them on the back of a toilet. Yeah, I'm not right in the head.
The convention I was at today had a Typing of the Dead arcade cab (likely fanoodled together with some creative engineering) and this is trippy to come home to.
Typing games like this seem to be rather common Japan. I originally learned about this game in an anime/manga magazine, which was showing a bunch of them, Typing of the Dead among them. Back then, there was no indication that it comes to the west and I sure never thought it would, but not that long afterwards, I actually got to play it on PC. Pity that I don't have it anymore. Also, that dub is somehow even worse than I remember.
8:57 *Foot fetish*... Enough typing for today, let's die. Wait holy crap I'm early lol thought I saw this video from here like a year ago. *Edit:* Holy shit how did this get 119 likes? I did not expect that, thanks!
What coincidence, only yesterday I remembered House of the Dead and this thing and looked up some playthroughs. First saw it in a super mini arcade in Denmark; it literally only had this game and two pinball tables. I'm from Germany, and I think in general there's not many arcades in Europe.
Made me revisit "The Typing of the Dead: Overkill" for the PC, available on Steam with several DLC packages if you wish. It takes campy to a whole new level.
the ending is perfect. you rescued the guy you let die before just to make an example. you give your viewers exactly what they want! aaaah the satisfaction! thank You, LGR!
How did you not know this existed! There's multiple versions of it and even bettter is a parody of this parody the Texting of the Bread which is a phone game where you pick a charicter to fight off hordes of zombie gingerbread men. AVGN is a playable charicter in this one XD
I love this game and I actually used this game to teach myself an alternate keyboard layout! (colemak) The only thing that sucks is that if you're trying to win, the game's difficulty scales with your typing speed, rewarding typing slowly early on and ramping up as necessary. Still, it was an excellent and engaging way to push myself into typing at higher speeds!
So glad to see ya cover this :) I loved Typing of the Dead, and I owe my speed at typing now to having spent hours on a low-end laptop circa 2009 playing the hell out of it. That said, I do have one small issue with it, and that would be its complete lack of support for 10-key. I've never much liked using the number row above the keyboard, preferring to just hop my hand over to the 10-key pad and go to town, but Typing of the Dead doesn't even recognize it. That alone is responsible for the majority of my deaths in the game.
I LOVE this game. From Dreamcast keyboard to PC keyboard, I still play it routinely as a work break. Thanks for this! It’s a ton more fun that you can. The PC version has an unlockable version using the mouse.
Found Typing of the Dead on Home of the Underdogs. Unbelievably absurd concept, but a lot of fun and it actually helped me improve my typing a lot by forcing me to keep my eyes glued to the screen. Highly recommended!
I had this installed on every PC in the dismal "computer class" of my middle school. All was fine for months, until some weak willed kid played it and it horrified him to the point where his mother got involved saying the program "scarred him for life".
I would have loved to play this in school or something . We always had super boring typing tutors, where it was just lines of text on a "fun" looking background
Thanks to this game I placed 2nd at school typing competition. I played it so relentlessly and can say, it was one of the most challenging games I´ve ever played. Very nice review!
Your commentary is a combination of comedy and soothing tones. Guess you could say that you're the smooth jazz of the pc TH-cam community🤔 great video, sir.

I remember my school getting a computer lab in 1995. I hated trying to learn the "proper" way to type. When typing of the dead came out I almost doubled my typing speed despite ignoring home row keys. I now know where every key is on the keyboard without looking down at the keys. This game is part of the reason I got so fast and accurate at typing.
I took a typing class in junior college and then this game came out on Dreamcast a year later. I bought the Dreamcast keyboard just to play this game. It was so much fun and it honestly helped me maintain my touch typing skills.
Ever tried Google? I put in 3 words, pressed enter and at least a dozen shady sites popped up. Tried to get a random game from a few of them and they all worked. Took less than 5 minutes.
@@fonesrphunny7242 Yes, I have tried using Google. All it gives me are websites that either don't offer what I'm looking for, or do offer what I'm looking for, but have a bunch of annoying pop-ups that make it impossible to navigate (assuming my antivirus software doesn't get upset, first)
My local arcade still has a two player cabinet for this, complete with Japanese mode for extra fun and challenge! It's a blast and I've always loved showing people it!

Pretty because the main campaign just reuses the voicelines from HotD2, while the tutorial mode was probably made much later and they were able to learn from their mistakes.
They probably had a budget for voice actors by the time they recorded his voice for the tutorial. Haha.

Nightmare mode: DVORAK and QWERTY but changing randomly after each kill.
You are history's greatest monster.
I actually have both memorized, but I learned Dvorak second and haven't practiced it enough on computers, so I am naturally slower at it.

I like that eventhough this is the PC version, the backpacks of the Typers are actually Dreamcasts.

Well, this certainly has one advantage over the DC version: not having to buy a separate accessory to play it.
