[@itsjustaclint8404]

I was known back then in my local arcade for beating the game with one token. How'd I did this? Well the arcade cabinet of our House of the Dead (1 , 2 , and 3) can be wired and those times security cams weren't good to be depended on. Since the thing below the box can be opened (because of it not having a lock) and you can just open the thing and just keep putting the token and take it back by that process. Damn those were times I literally was ripping off the place but they didn't cared about it tho for some reason even if tho I got caught like 5 times. They're still running until now.

[@kabardino1337]

How they knew you beat the game with one token, since they saw you reusing the token?

[@itsjustaclint8404]

@ respect.

[@petr79]

@Stefano Pavone You could do the same trick with a fishing wire . If you folded the edge correctly you could insert it in the coin slot and get infinite tokens. Though you had to be discreet in order not to get caught. Eg if the mal owner saw 99 credits you were screwed.

House of the Dead 3 was one of my favorite arcade games to play back then. I got so good at the game that I managed to complete the whole game with one coin. I still remember the crowd of people standing behind me being absolutely bewildered. My hands were sweaty and my finger got blisters from shooting so fast. I developed a technique to use two fingers to shoot really fast. It was basically a machine gun at that point, not a shotgun. Really fun game but really freaking hard.

I played the crap out of House of The Dead 2 on the Dreamcast when I was 8yrs old. Was one of my favorite Dreamcast games and I still feel obligated to sacrifice a couple coins whenever I see one of the arcade cabinet versions. It's been awhile but I think House of The Dead 2 also had branching paths and where you went depended on who you saved or how well you did. I might not remember it correctly cuz it was 20yrs ago.

[@interlinkedMedia]

Remember the secure feeling of having a ton of quarters on you when your parents dropped you off at the mall or movie theater??? Probably spent a couple hundred bucks in the late 90's - early 2000's on these arcades. There was a decent Star Trek one too wherein whenever you had to reload it would say "REMODULATE".

[@ericduan19]

the third game was my favorite. shooting a shotgun in the arcade just felt so badass lol

[@GodOfOrphans]

I've managed to flawless the Empress in House of the Dead 4. The key is to remember that only the head takes damage so you need to make sure you aren't wasting your ammo with body shots when she is above or on the side of the train. The blue reticle on the monochromatic blue model kinda makes it harder to see where her actual hurtbox is so it's really easy to waste ammo with body shots without even realizing it. She follows the same route and attack pattern each time though so with some memorization you should be able to lead your shots when she goes behind one of the doors which blocks her hitbox and hit her as she becomes vulnerable again instead of wasting ammo and not having enough time to reload.

It was pretty cool how the arcade cabinets for 1 - 4 had different gun plastic models (with reload options) modeling the weapons used ingame, HOTD1 had a small pistol, HOTD2 had a bigger pistol closer to a revolver, HOTD3 had the pump shotgun and HOTD4 had the Uzi/Ingram type gun.

[@alconfalcon4994]

I remember playing an original HOTD3 cabinet, and you actually had to reload it; rather than pointing outside the screen, like the last games, you had to pull back the handle. It was really unique, and I personally have never seen anything like that in any other arcade cabinet.

[@zudy9067]

damn, that feeling must be amazing, nothing feels like flexing your skills on strangers in person

[@jefftakesdscakes30]

Wdym screw up

[@ZigealFaust]

@@jefftakesdscakes30 They shut down all the Gameworks arcades in the late 2000's. They should have at least kept open the ones in New York, LA, Philly, and Orlando.

[@unkeneke]

If anybody has the chance to play House of the Dead: Scarlet Dawn do it, the game is super fun in arcade and it is as violent if not even more than previous games, you are set against bigger hordes compared to previous HOTD, and you have to mow them down with machine guns and rocket launchers. Good times.

[@3hero_]

I had a chance to do so in Florida a couple of months ago, but ended up passing on it. I regret not playing it :(

[@simen30]

wish they would release it as a playstation vr game

[@adamnasser9120]

shutcho goofy ass! its even worse than overkill even if it got some of the best graphics ever

[@serPomiz]

arcades are basically all gone here, so... gonna wait for that crappy conversion, I guess...

[@ofearghailthefearless6481]

Fun fact about Thomas Rogan in the third game: Thomas is voiced by Terence McGovern who some of you may know him best as either Larry in Telltale's The Walking Dead or Launchpad in the original DuckTales.

[@thevgmlover]

House Of The Dead 2 & 3 on the Wii was actually my introduction to the series. The difference between these versions, aside from how you aim, is the amount of extra content outside the main game, I think. 2 has two challenge modes. One tests certain aspects of your shooting abilities at three different difficulties each, and the other is a time attack against bosses. On top o' that, there's two ways to play the main game. Arcade is just the main game as is, but Original Mode lets you equip all sorts of different bonuses and extras such as a larger magazine, damages booster, shoot the UFO, and even weapons like a double-barrel shotgun, grenade launcher, and a bass lure launcher. 3 has only two unlockable main game modes, but they make the game way more replayable: Time attack takes you through the whole on a short time limit, but you can increase it by playing skillfully and hunting for bonuses, and Extreme mode locks you in solo, makes enemies tougher, and your shotgun is essentially a rifle now (in other words, AIM CAREFULLY), but it gives you a faster reload, and a melee attack.

[@capcomman1]

Holy smokes you brought up The Secret World of Alex Mack..where's the youtube love button....dammit

[@PreschoolFightClub]

It's so great to see this series being talked about today. Such a fun game this is. Also, Sega needs to stop playing around and give us what we really want. An ACTUAL good remaster of HOTD1 for the PC with online co-op.

[@Big_Gulps_Huh]

16:57 "Flying High"? We know it as "Airplane!" in the States.

[@melleach385]

15:35 actually if you're doing really well in the game and you haven't taken damage in a while, the Tower will start attacking with 2 heads at a time. The Magician increases in difficulty if you're doing well too, getting faster and faster and once his little after-image movements glow white instead of red then you know he's at max speed and "I want you to put more money in."-mode.

That Explains Why He Wasnt Going Red Or Blue When He Moved

[@crimsonshadow1140]

what really spooked me with those freddy looking zombies is when before they appear a toddler’s voice can be heard whispering in the background

[@JoeyJ0J0]

My favorite light gun series , a mix of virtua cop and an Italian zombie movie. My favorites are 2 and 3. I have the Wii port of 2 and 3 , it's a great port. Love these games

[@Chinothebad]

Same, right up with Time Crisis. Most favorite is 1 though I'd love to give 2 another chance again.

[@GenesHand]

The wii port is great, has a lot of extra challenges. Cool bonus.

[@Nomad-bl4yw]

The fedora bit gave me a good laugh

[@Megaspartan23]

"Joey Jones or Robbie Robinson" What about Joey Jojo Jr Shabadoo?

[@InfinityCartier]

Hey! It's Joey Jojo!

[@NegativeNanase]

GOODBYE JOJO

J-JOJO?!

The 9th jojo revealed

*Clock hits zombie on the head* G, *lighting a cigarette*: 'Well, times flies when you're having fun'

[@RahatTheKiller]

The first game scared the heck out of 10 year old me. Later, I learned how to get to the final level without using a single continue. It soon became a tradition to finish the games in order. Never got round to getting 4 though, but there is a spin-off title for HOD 4 in the arcades which I played in Dubai.

[@marcdimartino9118]

I'm shocked that there aren't more people who were scared of this game when they were kids like you and me... or maybe no one else wants to admit it.

[@czolgistta]

I remember like it was today the place where my parents used to go on vacation when I was 12 and that little obscure bar that had this game in its corner. I used to spend half my days there playing that game and was quickly able to beat it with one coin only. I became so well known for that that there was an audience of 9-12 kids and teens around me watching how I played and finished the game with that one coin. Oh the good times and epic game :D

[@KaoticReach1999]

This series gave me my first nightmares as a kid lmao

[@SonnyBJP]

Same here it was always the zombies with open shirts I’d have nightmares of

[@DoggoLua]

“I’ve been waiting for you, friends”

[@MrZachgonz]

I’ll always remember hearing the voice saying “RELOAD” and beating this game solo in an arcade with just like $3.

[@MmaSmarty87]

Only 90's kids remember The Secret World of Alex Mac..... Damn dude thanks for the nostalgia!

[@Sixstringman]

She was a T-1000 sent back in time to kill television.

[@apotheases]

Did he say a “fleshlight” zombie?

[@samtinkle9076]

Mind that he won’t cease in saying “blaod”

[@illyay1337]

We all heard it.

[@rahulthekkedath8923]

He could have meant Flashlight zombie ?

[@MrValy128]

😂😂😂😂

[@muskker9959]

God that intro was magnificent

[@thecreepycuck6036]

We didnt have a curtain around the arcade machine in north america, we just played that ish raw. This is a classic tho have many memories and lost tokens playing dis

[@dennisnordlund902]

Neither did we in sweden. Loved these games as a kid!

[@mars199]

I use to play this with my dad when I was 6-8 years old.

[@manperson5315]

In-depth explanation over the two crucial ports of HOTD2 below. Warning : Too Long; Don't Read. [?] In the PC and the Wii ports of HOTD2, not only do they have HOTD1 level options, but different modes as well, including the Original Mode which I will elaborate on later. There's also the Practice Mode which is self-explanatory, giving you a set of levels to test your skills on each part of the game's action itself, which is just mostly shooting. There's also a Boss Rush mode, with each boss having a 5-set difficulty level which goes up whenever you defeat the boss, but you can set it just at about any rate you want [first rate to fifth rate], so there's that. Arcade mode is well, Arcade, obviously. In the PC and Wii ports, there are many secret items/assets plotted throughout the main levels of the game that you can interact/loot, although I am unsure about the Arcade version since it doesn't have any customizable content [Score/Health Assets are the exception]. Some of the secret items give you a different route through the mission, such as the 'key to the gate' from Level 2 'Muddy'. As for the others, they're either just there for you to get extra points, or some features which give you advantages the next time to pop in Original Mode, such as infinite health, costumes and even an entire arsenal of weapons, including the Machine Gun, Shotgun, Grenade Launcher, Toy Gun and the Air Gun. Hell, there are even DIFFERENT ENDINGS ranging from Normal, Bad and Good determined by the following 4, of which they are : 1. If a solo game was finished as either player 1 or 2 2 .If both players defeated the last boss 3. Number of continues 4. Points earned All endings have their own cutscenes, my favourite being the Bad Ending solely due to how cheesy it is. And here comes the massive arsenal of customization within Original Mode, of which I copied and pasted it here from an old but useful guide [www.neoseeker.com/housedead2/faqs/16804-house-of-the-dead-2-b.html by SloDeth and published/hosted by Neoseeker.] Bullet Powerups: Power Up 1.2 - bullet power multiplied by 1.2(20% stronger) Power Up 1.5 - bullet power multiplied by 1.5(50% stronger) Power Up 2.0 - bullet power multiplied by 2.0(100% stronger) Bullet Blow - all monsters killed in ONE SHOT! Life Up: Life +2 - two more life torches Life +5 - five more torches Credit Up: Credit +2 - two more credits Credit +5 - five more credits Credit +10 - ten more credits Credit +Infinity - infinite credits Chamber Up: Chamber +2 - two more bullets in the chamber Chamber +4 - four more bullets in the chamber Chamber +8 - eight more bullets in the chamber Chamber +Infinity - no more reloading Costumes: Bruno Costume - A costume of Bruno Delinger, a protagonist from Sega's 1998 beat 'em up Dynamite Cop. Civilian Costume - A costume of a civilian. Amy Costume - An Amy Crystal costume. Harry Costume - A Harry Harris costume. Goldman Costume - A Caleb Goldman costume. Unlocked after completing Original Mode. Rogan Costume - A Thomas Rogan costume. G Costume - A G costume. Guns: Machine Gun - six bullets shot at one time, one ammo Shotgun - wider shot, two ammo Grenade Launcher - disappointing, three ammo Custom Air Gun - ping pong balls for ammo, twelve ammo Toy Gun - zapping sound, six ammo Other: Double Score - doubles your score Life 1/4 - monsters have 25% their life(not as good as Bullet Blow) First Aid Kit - Life Up in each barrel Primitive Meat - civilians have large hands and heads Rotten Meat - monsters have huge heads , excluding bosses Bass Lure - lure shot out by gun UFO?? - UFO appears in the sky occasionally, which you can shoot out for points And finally, for the red blood toggling, you have to finish the game first and then go the options, and you're good. For the rest of the game honestly, I'm just going to hook-up some sources. [ thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/Original_Mode_(The_House_of_the_Dead_2) ] [ thehouseofthedead.fandom.com/wiki/The_House_of_the_Dead_2 ] [ www.neoseeker.com/housedead2/faqs/16804-house-of-the-dead-2-b.html ]

[@gaz6629]

I actually played the third one on arcade, and while it was wasn't easy it was rare to see a shotgun shooter in an arcade, and let me tell you reloading with a working pump action on the gun was one of the most satisfying gaming experiences I have ever encountered.

[@vanhende]

i remember playing the hell out of this one and "Area 51" good times..

[@filipinowhiteboy]

Those were two of my favorite Arcades....mainly because I could actually make some headway in them. Both HoTD and Area51 are way easier than their sequels and thus, I could get a lot more enjoyment per quarter.

[@angry_zergling]

Area 51! In elementary school my mom and I would go to the arcade in the mall almost every Saturday and that's the one we played the most (in addition to Aliens 3 and the game in the video). "Entering hanger sector 1-8." "Check your targets people." "We-we-we we copy!" "RELOAD. RELOAD."

[@bombomos]

One time at a friend's birthday all the machines were free. So me and a friend beat Area 51. It was epic

[@kamo7293]

My parents never let me put in another pound if I died, so I was pretty bummed out when I did. At least they stopped me from wasting their money

[@nottoday9182]

Reboot it, bring back Goldman, and have him voiced by Bobcat Goldthwait.

[@lisvender]

THAT would rule

[@muhammadfattah8568]

Hotd 2 remake

[@vnquoctru]

I remember being a kid looking for all the emulators of these shooters. Took me a while but now I can *somewhat* play HoTD4 on PC, which brought a tear to my eyes

[@cheeriosaregood920]

as a really young kid I remember playing HoTD 4 at an arcade and I can't believe this game actually has a series with an actual story, though I was too young to make it to one boss

[@vladv5126]

Random dude in Venice: I ran from the colosseum. Y'know, the one in Rome, over 500 km away from here.

[@entropy_9320]

Used to go to the mall arcade when I was a kid every Friday where they had Time Crisis 2, Crisis Zone, and The House of the Dead 1. These games were such a blast to play. I played these games so many times I somehow managed to be able to play through all 3 in a row without getting hit once in any of them. Literally memorized everything in each game. I really do miss these arcade classics. Thanks for the nostalgia trip lol

[@dilovanser3469]

I remember playing house of the dead 3 in the bowling alleys arcade with my mum when I was like 6? Good times
