A new Splatterhouse? What? YES! photo

Oh my God! I don't care that Splatterhouse 2 was one of the most frustrating gaming experiences of my life -- any title that features telekinetic hanging fetus zombies that you chainsaw to death is the pinnacle of videogame achievement. The news that a current-gen Splatterhouse game is actually being made has caused me to become so excited, I might just puke, here and now, all over my hands and keyboard.

EGM will have an exclusive first look at this retro revival, as one of old school gaming's most blood-soaked franchises gets a fresh coat of paint for the current generation. To whomever may be responsible for resurrecting this game, if you are reading this, let it be known that I will have your babies -- morality and biological impossibilities be damned!

There'll be plenty of time for cynicism later, but right now, in my overexcited state, let me declare that this is going to be the GREATEST GAME EVER MADE!

[Thanks, DarkTravesty]

I hope to god above that its done in 3D but played in a 2D aspect. If this game ends up being over the shoulder crap it pretty much defeats the whole feel of the original that has stood the test of time for ohhhh about 16 years.

But along with everyone else's sentiments I must say - FUCK YES!

The DS is a perfect platform!

I can't imagine that game in 3D.

MUST BE 2D!
