After you've completed levels, they can be replayed for high scores and unlocking treats you had missed. Keep an eye out for the framed gold records in levels and shoot them when you can. While the comic pages and 3-D art are of questionable interest, many of the music tracks are both funny and good. Also littered among the various power-ups are perks like comic book pages, 3-D models and access to audio tracks in the game's jukebox mode. Along the way, you can shoot power-ups for grenades, health replenishment and a brief slow-motion mode. In Overkill's story mode, players, either alone or with a local co-op partner, guide Agent G and Detective Isaac Washington in simple on-rails shooter missions against deadly mutants, each level culminating in vaguely differentiated boss battles. Overkill - Extended Cut on Sony's flagship console, with HD video and far better graphics performance, is the standout home version of The House of the Dead franchise - returning to, even improving upon, the original arcade glory.

At the introduction of PS Move, the PS3 also gained support for light-gun play. When the Wii was released, it created new light-gun opportunities, and adult owners of the console became an obvious market for games like Overkill. In the console era of Nintendo 64 and the original PlayStation, arcade graphics took a hit dumbing down to home machines, and implementing light-gun mechanics was dependent upon gamers buying single-function peripherals supported by few titles. Originally, The House of the Dead was a 1997 light-gun arcade machine from Sega. Whatever the reason, the PS3 catalog is far better off for this HD remake of a Wii cult classic. For all I know, funding Overkill's development was a cheaper option than all those inpatient psychiatry bills for studio staff.

Sometimes, developers focused on creating art trainers and movie tie-in titles for the Nintendo DS must cut loose. When a studio can take this much cultural trash and make it not only hilarious but also a great deal of fun to play, it's certainly on to something. The dialogue isn't profanity-laced it's profanity-saturated - immersed in a vast lexicon of dirty words and every possible combination thereof. The game is filled with every visual indiscretion of the filthiest NC-17 exploitation cinema, save for actual sex acts. If it weren't for Headstrong Games' pitch-perfect sense of hyperbolic humor, Overkill would be almost unplayable for most gamers with a conscience.
