Playing HOTD 2 at a laundry mat, arcade, bowling alley, or movie theater will always be one of my favorite childhood memories
Same mate. The best.
There was a HOTD 1 at my local theater. Gave me the chills. The room it was in was abandoned. The prize counter and everything was all empty, only haveing arcades.
... when your at a laundry mat to wash cloths but see HOTD2, so you have a crisis choosing between clean cloths or blowing all your quarters playing.
Though the best ones would never come back, I am at least glad HOTD scarlet dawn is still in arcades
Laundry mat!?
I used to play HOTD 2 & 3 at my high-school's game room. Basically, every day for 2 years I played this game with a friend at lunch/recess.
We got so good that we actually beat the game without using any continues at out local theater.
It was awesome.
I must’ve played this game on Wii and the local arcade dozens of times. It’s the greatest video game voice acting of all time
Yup, this game is a gem. A ugly yet beautiful gem. Will never forget this game's horrid voice acting, and it just makes it more timeless.
I don't wanna die
My god
“Dogs of the AMS…time they made a move”
The one that always baffles me is when the civilians yell “DON’T COME! DON’T COME!” when being chased by a zombie. Seems like it was probably a terribly done translation of a phrase like “Get away!” yet the English VA still had to say it
@@dannywright1317 dont come dont come !!
it wasnt ugly back then lol
@@eriklarson7023 how could anyone do this....
"Suffer like G did?"
I know it wasn't a question, but with the voice alterations, it sure does.
This game is just full blown nostalgia.
I remember playing this as an arcade in the south of France when I was a kid. Man I wasted a lot of coins on this game but the experience was incredible.
He transferred all the hair on his head to his beard 🔥
and all of his brains
a worthy trade off
We just need a typing of the dead remake
And keyboard
What's wrong with the original 😉
@@ThePawerStation I was being sarcastic, but I own it on Dreamcast 😎... It still rocks
jirard, you and your folks at TOVG are literally the best. real MVPs of the youtube gaming community
we appreciate you being willing to open up with your vulnerability on cam and your advocacy for kindness and generosity
but those IRL bits? like the one with alex?
FUCKING INCREDIBLE. LOVE you guys SO much
I’m so happy you covered this game Jirard. The House of the Dead games have given me so much enjoyment over the years, but even I must admit there’s something truly special about 2. The combination of fun action and over the top cheesiness makes it such a great title, and with it also came Goldman, a bargain bin villain who could give the great Albert Wesker a run for his money with delightfully cringey dialogue and dialed up to 11 megalomania. I can’t wait to see what you cover next on the channel.
I've always thought that AMS stood for 'Armed Mission Service.'
“Dogs, of the AMS.” Jirard 2 takes place in 2000. 4 takes place in 2003 and 3 takes place in 2019. I have to say 2 is my favorite.
Are you sure? I distinctly remember seeing the year 1998 in the intro of the Sega Dreamcast port. I haven't played HOTD2 in a very, very long time but I have owned it since the day it launched on the Dreamcast 9/9/99. That was an amazing time to be alive. It was a 200 dollar console that could punch so far above its weight class it was ridiculous. It ran toe-to-toe with the best gaming PC's of the time...at least for the first 6 months.
Both my roommate and I (first time living without parents) each bought Sega Dreamcasts the day it launched. We wound up buying 10 games that first day (5 each) and only had two duplicates *Soul Caliber and NFL2K. We each picked up 3 controllers as well which worked great as we threw a huge party that night that ended up consuming the entire weekend.
Addendum- You might be wondering- Why would you buy two of the same game for the same household long before that became a requirement? He preordered his Dreamcast from EB and I from Toy's R' Us. We both picked them up after work...in hindsight I should have rang his cell and coordinated things a bit better but it did enable everyone to enjoy both 2K and Soul Caliber a lot more than if we only had one of each (8 playing NFL 2K at once and 4 playing Soul Caliber at once). Yes, it was damn cool and something I have replicated in my home today on a much grander scale with my fiancee who is a gamer like me.
@@Sinn0100 yes 4 says 3 years after the 2000 incident I believe G says this to Kate. (I’ll have to replay it may have been Kate and the other guy she is with in 4) but it’s said in 4.
@@orphen241
Alright...
@@Sinn0100 2's intro does mention 1998, however that's for the recap of the first game which takes place specifically on December 18, 1998, after the recap of the first game the intro shows the year 2 takes place in, that being the year 2000
@@Sinn0100 Dude, the intro of House of the Dead 4 straight up tells you the year in which the events take place (2003). Same goes for House of the Dead 3 (2019) lol
That goldman voice acting do be the best part of the game
Despite the game having hilariously bad voice acting, the gameplay is solid, and I think it's one of the best lightgun games ever made.
SUFFER LIKE G DID?
@@NicoTheCinderacefor real, it sounds like a question
I remember playing this on the Dreamcast and thinking "I have an actual arcade game in my house". It's 100% exactly like the arcade. Even better with the new modes and bonus
I remember doing a lock-in at the local arcade for my 10th birthday and my friend & I spent the whole time playing & finishing this game…. Good times 😁
I’ve played this as well as the first the house of the dead game at a young age, though not being good at. Great new game plus, Jirard. It’s really bittersweet that this is ending as I was watching this series since 2014, but I cannot wait to see what’s next for the channel and beyond.
A.M.S. = American Mercenary Squad.
(Probably.)
This video is perfect and so entertaining. You always put so much effort and just want to say thank you
This will always be my favorite game in the series! Played it tons in the local arcade before getting it for Dreamcast on launch day! Glad to have the soundtrack on vinyl and also for the first game.
The story with your brother and dad was super wholesome
Crab In A Cab? Sweet! Also, I love these bits where Jirard talks while using a teleprompter but Alex is constantly adding his own thoughts into the mix. Plus, shaved head Jirard makes him go from being a conqueror of games to a sage of games. I appreciate the new look. Lastly, the Beard Bros as govt agents needs a to be a t-shirt.
To protect THE LIFE CYCLE - GOLDMAN
This was my favorite arcade shooter on the dreamcast what a glorious game.
I was hyped to get this on Dreamcast and I tried really hard to like it, but Sega never released an official light gun, and none of the 3rd party ones ever came close to being accurate enough for me to get any further than the first few stages. This was the experience of every Dreamcast owner I knew at the time and have known since. The first thing anyone says when House of the Dead 2 gets mentioned is how the light guns were all so bad you couldn't play the game once it started requiring accuracy.
Anti-
Monster
Squad
I could've sworn I heard that from a HotD arcade machine back in the day...
I absolutely love this game easily the best in the series
I remember playing this on the Wii back in the day it was so much fun
Fun fact: if you start original mode in co-op and one of you selects the infinite continues power-up only one of you gets it, however if you start original mode solo and select this power-up and then have your co-op partner join you after the game starts you’ll both get infinite continues
Also, the intro slate for my videos is based off the title at the beginning of each chapter in HOTD2
Jirard is The Master of The House of The Dead The Sequal.
Voice acting aside. No other rail shooter surpasses the gameplay of HOTD 2 IMO. The shooting, enemies and bosses feel so right. Any videos made on it is an instant must watch for me!
*Time Crisis 2 has entered the chat*
Turning into the God of War himself Can’t wait for the Ragnorak completion video
I love hearing the stories of the memories you have of the game!
That story of your family and the following segment with Alex were very touching and funny. You’re cool people
Loved the story behind this and it really made this an amazing video.
This is crazy timing for me that your review of this popped up on my feed today. I've recently been lucky to have received a Gun4IR based lightgun solution and I've been playing HOTD2 more than any other game with it.
Between stuff like Gun4IR, Sinden and House of the Dead Remake being things, I hope lightguns make a proper comeback to the mass consumer market.
I played this alot on the Dreamcast and I enjoyed the hell out of it. Such a classic.
I love this game. I play it quite often on my Dreamcast via a VGA cable which goes to my SEGA Blast City.
The light guns work perfectly.
Though it's a shame that the technology causes seizures because of how the technology works
Your story about your brother and dad brought fond memories back of me and my own brother and dad. The first game he played with us was guitar hero. Thanks
Your consistency and quality of content never disappoints! ❤
Clout chasers like you however, do.
He don't want to do it anymore, he's trying his damndest to do literally ANYTHING else! Lol
Piss off, bot channel
I remember playing this game in arcades as a kid.
Classic! Pure classic my friend. Use to love playing this with my buds.
Gerard you and max dood your passion love for videogames is genuine why i love your channel
He’s BALD
Ikr
He did it so he can cosplay as kratos
Absolutely fantastic video, Jirard. Awesome nostalgic game, good stories, fun to complete with a friend, nothing that made you wanna rip your beard out. I know I may sound like a broken record, but I love episodes like this. You work so hard, and it's nice to see you enjoy a game. Not to say you don't enjoy a challenge, but I know how hard you work, and it's nice when I see you didn't have to spend 12 hours trying to get a single trophy or finagle your way around some crazy online only achievements.
I love those gun shells you're using, the vibration built in is pretty weak but the A button trigger along with the light makes for an intense game of RE4 on Wii! So sweet you were able to share that experience with your Dad I hope I leave the same impression on my children ☺️
Just in time! I just came back from work, have my lunch in the oven, and on my way home JUST NOW I picked up a copy of this game for my Dreamcast that I got from Marketplace.
Incredible coincidence
I think AMS is a play on the Sega AM1 R&D team that developed the games. Assuming the S stands for something like “Special” then that means AMS basically stands for Amusement Machine Special (team)
I never thought about it before but, yeah, that's probably it. 😁
There is the way of using nunchuck as your 2nd gun now that’s badass idea
One of the best Sega games ever and I also played it with my father and brothers. I still play it from time to time and love going on branching paths and the music is just incredible
Once again great video Jirard you are awesome
Every time I hear the Wild Arms battle theme i smile. I beat HotD 2 at dave and busters when I was a kid. Great time.
It's about protecting the life cycle! - Goldman
Your story about your dad, that got me. During 2018-2019, my mother went to the hospital 5 times and my brother and I kept wondering if she was going to make it. The only game that was coming out in 2019 was REmake 2 and that got me and my brother through that dark time.
Absolutely worth the experience with a friend, as most arcade classics are.
RIP Trevor Strnad
whenever i been to an arcade with friends this has been the first game i look for. love the campy cutscenes
AMS actually stands for Anti Monster Squad
that is kinda funny it might actually true😂 , although I were guessed it to be anti mayhem service
Your story about your dad reminds me of playing games with my dad growing up. He mostly played old point and clicks on the PC. But I remember one time he asked for the controler for GTA4 he walked over and beat the shit out of a hooker with a baseball bat first thing and let out some of the biggest gut busting laughter I ever heard come out of the man
I had this on DC with that leet-ass double trigger lightgun. This game had so many features, i played it to death!
Reload! Reload! - narrative from house of the dead series.
My day and geographic region always improve with a TOVG vid boi
My best memory of HOTD was playing the 3rd one on a Arcade Cabinet with Uzi models with my best friend on a cruise ship too Alaska when we were both 13. It was also the time when we were given free play night. We beat it and was the most fun I’ve had.
man what a game the memories are so nostalgic it is nice to see this again
I still remember playing this game with my dad in the arcade at out local farmer's market. People would actually crowd around to watch us, cause we were the only ones they had ever seen make it to the final boss and beat the game. I had a similar experience because my dad never played video games, but he picked this game up pretty quickly
House of the Dead 2 is so cheesy but it is indeed a fun type of cheese. Hoping this will get a remake the same way that one did and that story involving you, your brother and dad was a very touching story. Also, love the skit between you and Alex lol. Totally felt like a scene from the game.
overkill is vaguely 60’s~70’s 1 is 98 2 is 2000’s with 4 and 4sp following in the aftermath, 3 is 2019(?) and scarlet dawn I think is 2012?
Crab in a cab
"We're not doing so well."
Unreasonably funny.
I can't believe Jirard suffered like G did.
Jirrad reminds me of Max Payne from the third game. Especially walking down the stairs with the light gun. Awesome XD
Dogs of the AMS..... Rofl the voice acring was my favorite part as well. That and typing of the dead. Seeing them run with dreamcasts on their backs with keyboards strapped to their chest. Just perfect
I think a co-op speedrun attempt with you and Proton Jon would be a top 5 livestream experience for me.
Oh wow, there's so much white flashing at 3:00. That could have been very bad.

The Magician Boss theme song, at some period of time, was me, my brother and my cousins theme song for our Nokia cellphone (we recorded it and used it as ringtone). Such a badass theme song!
This game used to eat up all my quarters at the arcade! I loved it
The intro portion not having music is messing with me.
I still love that intro.
If you don't mind me saying so Jirard, you rock the buzzed head/full beard look.
As for the game, definitely one of my favourites too. Always stocked to find an arcade machine of this, particularly in sega's Playdium where on some days you could get a pass that was infinite credits for a flat rate for the night. Good times. Especially since it meant you could dual wield if the machine wasn't busy, always a treat.
You know, up until this video I hadn't seen any footage of the Wii version. It's surprising how much worse than the Dreamcast version it looks! Textures are blurrier, the game's colors aren't as sharp... But the game still holds every ounce of its charm. It's amazing, isn't it?
Fantastic video!! I loved it! Thank you for sharing your story with us!
The voice acting is my favorite part. "Go, krull!"
Jirard, my dad also had heart surgery when I was a kid. Its terrifying. One of the earliest memoires I have of my dad (who also hated video games) was playing a random zombie horror game that we got from Block Buster.
If I remember correctly HOTD2 takes place in 1998. It was released in 1998 for the Sega Dreamcast in Japan and here in the US on 9/9/99. I know about the latter date as it was one of the many games my roommate and I purchased the day the Dreamcast dropped. That was a fun day which led us both to call into work and invite a boatload of people to our apartment for some epic Dreamcast playing. It turned into a 3 day weekend for us and was well worth it.
Since we each bought our own Dreamcast we had both setup in the living room. 8 controllers, 10 games between us, with only two duplicates (Soul Caliber and NFL2K) it was a blast. We mostly ran 4 man NFL2K matches and Soul Caliber tourneys all night with some HOTD2 scattered in there for good measure.
House of the Dead gave me nightmares bout 18 years ago. House of the Dead 2 only re-enforced them. Now *God where have these gone!?* House of the Dead will forever be a classic in the same vain as The Room 👌
There is a House of the dead remake but I think it's only on the switch if your interested.
I desperately want to see _The Room of the Dead,_ with the main characters being filled by the cast of _The Room._
"The chaos in the city is increasing!"
"A-hhhhhhha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. What a story!"
That zombie driving the red car 🚗🧟♂️ Lmao 🤣 gets me every time
Saw this in an airport but never got to play the machine, one of my fav games. Thought it looked so cool. I did get to play the first one tho and the rest so I’m happy ;)
as someone who speedruns these games it hurt to watch the gameplay lol but I'm glad you love this series too
You really missed the opportunity to say "CEO of Gex"
The house of the dead 2&3 on the wii were amazing and led me to the wonders of overkill the best on rails shooter ever
Loved playing the arcade version of this at the movie theatre, got the Japanese version of the first game on my Saturn. And got the remaster of the first game on switch, one of my most hyped releases of the year. Would love to see a remaster of HOTD2 to fallow up.
Lookin' sharp Jirard like the beard plus buzz cut combo it's nice to change it up every now and then
I remember playing this with my friends at my local arcade. Never managed to finish it before they swapped it for silent hill arcade game which was just as good imo
Between this and Time Crisis I used to love quarter mashing at my local arcade and drawing a crowd by beating levels without taking a hit.
Ego stroking at its finest
The formula is simple: SEGA + Zombies = Comedy Gold.
My personal favorite HotD2 moment was the very first time I re-encountered Magician Type 0, and realized they also brought back his (excellent top-grade S-tier) boss theme. I didn't know it was possible to be happy in THAT way before then.
I too played this treasure with my dad. I still have him but I understand how it amazing it is to play with your dad.
Eyyy, liking the new look!
HotD 2 is my jam, back in the day on dreamcast i 5 starred all the training and bosses and love it, the magicians theme is an absolute banger.
I'm convinced that my subscription list is just 100% dorks. Kinda dig it.
Absolute classic. The House of the Dead 2 never gets old. And if it's not already funny enough as it is, there's always Typing of the Dead.
Jirard looking super clean with the shaved head and thick beard, looking good bro!
Hahaha just a random Troll 2 burn thrown in there for good measure
This and time crisis were my absolute childhood😭 On rail shooters are so underrated nowadays
Just built a mame with this. So hype
