PS3 to Play Home to More of SEGA’s House of the Dead Series
Last year, the once Wii exclusive House of the Dead: Overkill Extended Cut was brought to the PlayStation 3. And while it wasn’t a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination, it worked will with the PlayStation Move in replicating that “arcade” experience on the PS3. It was a lot of fun, too. SEGA announced this morning that there is more House of the Dead arcade-style fun coming to the PlayStation Network.
SEGA revealed this morning plans to bring House of the Dead 3 and House of the Dead 4 to the PlayStation 3 via PSN. The classic arcade shooters will again feature PlayStation Move support, and a HD makeover. Although, SEGA was quick to point out that the HD-ness of them won’t be as significant as HotD:O-Extended Cut (which wasn’t that good in the first place), and instead be a mere sprucing.
House of the Dead 3 will arrive on February 7th, while House of the Dead 4‘s release is more vague with just “Spring” as the window.

I was jealous of HotD4 being an Xbox exclusive back in the day, redemption has finally come lol.
I wish they would release the 1st House of the Dead as that is my favorite and played it multiple times at the arcades. This is pretty cool too. At least these games will help my fix of the classic House of the Dead
i like this , i need to pick up overkill hopefully if it drops in price soon , but i’ll def download these i never played them on my xbox and will give some more games for the move.

Actually HotD 3 was the Xbox exclusive. HotD 4 never left the arcades making this the first time that it is seeing a console release.
I played HOTD Overkill and it’s not bad. Quite fun to play with the Move, was better then I thought.
