Czech gaming Web site Tiscali Games has just posted the first screenshots from Namco Bandai's upcoming next-gen gore fest, Splatterhouse.
From the screens the game looks to have a God of War-like vibe, with the 'roid-raged Rick tearing apart monsters with both his bare hands, in addition to busting skulls with his trademark wooden board. Other than the fact that Rick looks disproportional and ridiculous (which we already were prepared for), there's not much else to go on.
I'm all about tearing off monster's heads and smashing in their faces with 2x4s, but I'm going to remain cautious about this title. There's something about it that just looks ... off. Am I alone in this feeling?

I have a feeling this is going to be awful.
Hopefully this one is still as fun.
But compare this to a Medieval screen shot.
YES!
It's Chris Benoit
And about the arm, jpitner -- the game apparently has a health regeneration system, so what you're seeing will regenerate over time (thing Halo, but with flesh). Could be a cool effect if done right.

I played a demo rom of the 1st one and it was hard but damn fun (need to find an actual WHOLE version....)
Hopefully this one is still as fun.
Isn't this game available on Virtual Console
Which is ironic.
I get my EGMs sooo late most of the time (I still don't have this issue). There was one time where my local Walgreen's got an issue a full week before I did and Walgreen's gets their magazines way later than most newsstands.
VC as in Wii??
Might have to look into that....
That doesn't look good at all.
Hopefully its much better in motion.
Which is usually the case.
..I just came.
Not creepy.
Looks like Death Jr.
Splatterhouse 2, with pixelated graphics and altered-beast-like soundtrack was scary and depressing.... if you took too much time to finish the game your wife and kid die... thats Splatterhouse, not this x-steroids-xtreme-fest
