JBoc924SEGA just couldn’t keep the surprise any longer so they decided to announce and give us a first look at House of the Dead: OVERKILL for the PS3 before E3 commenced. As you may recall, especially if you’re a Wii owner, OVERKILL was a new entry in the zombie-filled, rail-shooter series which didn’t hold back at all–making its once-exclusive home on the Wii quite surprising. The game is now going HD and 3D on the Playstation 3 with Playstation Move compatibility just in time for Halloween– October 25th to be exact.
This isn’t just a prettier version of the game, though. SEGA has made sure to add a good amount of extras into OVERKILL that should please PS3 owners. You can check out all of the game’s features– including the PS3 exclusives– summed up below. Also, make sure to check out the new images, including the game’s box art and character-centric posters, in the gallery below.
