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.

But compare this to a Medieval screen shot.

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

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.

Don't you guys?

VC as in Wii??
Might have to look into that....
05/01/2008 17:35
That doesn't look good at all.
Hopefully its much better in motion.
Which is usually the case.

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

Unless I'm really missing something here this is still a WIP.
Screenshots don't really do any game justice, you gotta see it in motion. Also that PS1 shit's a ridiculous comparison.
Granted it could still be a shit game, but the mass amount of rather ungrounded criticism makes me wonder why I'm trying to get an education to go into game development if any games I work on are just going to be played by a large community of whiny hype-train riding lil' bitches.
Don't bother flaming, I won't be checking the comments to read it anyways.

I'm a huge fan of the original and i'm sure I'm going to enjoy this one too.
Why are there so many moaners?
RICK SMASH MONSTERS NOW!!!!
That's all the game ever was....
