Can't keep what's really original and putting something new is not worth it.
Resolutions are no longer 4:3. Enemy attacks you off-screen.

The House of the dead is my favorite arcade series and the magician is my favorite arcade character right next to wild dog from time crisis. When I heard that the first game is getting remade, I was beyond excited. After playing it however, all my excitement are gone. The remake sacrifices all the unique identity of the house of the dead in favor of a more realistic graphic. Its sense of speed is also gone with the magician feeling slower than ever. The biggest offender for me however, is the music. The House of the Dead series have some of the most iconic light gun arcade music and they replaced it for this remake. I fell especially empty when I heard the new Magician theme that while not bad, doesnt even compare to the amazing original magician theme. Overall if you are looking for a simple light gun arcade for the pc you can maybe give this a try But, as a remake for one of the most iconic video game, this is just a mid disappointment 5/10

This is demake!
UI flash induce motion sickness.
New music and graphics is baaaaaaad and takes the atmosphere from original game away.

Only bought this game because it was in pack with Panzer Dragon. It didn't work and it literally crashed my computer 4 separate times even after multiple installs. This game should be delisted, they don't even provide a instant refund so I can't even play Panzer until this is resolved. Steam is failing and this game is shameful.

I love the HOTD franchise a lot, and when this remake was announced, I was ecstatic. However, looking back at this game, I just don't know how I feel anymore. After I 100%ed the game, I didn't really have the motivation to replay the game again.

Sadly, I'm on the same boat as a lot of other people who dislike this game; it just doesn't feel faithful to the original 1996 game, and it only really makes me want to go back to playing the original games instead.

For $25 full-price, THOTD:R isn't worth it unless you already have prior experience with the franchise. However, even if you enjoyed the other games, this still isn't really worth your money.

5$ What a steal this one reminds me of the scarlet dawn House of the dead arcade

The game is only good for arcade, not exactly great for steam playing

honestly i don`t get the negetive reviwes it is funn and stapel i am honestly glade that somne remaket it since the originel code was lost ofc its not gone be like the origanel since its alos a remake if you see ths reviwe play the game for your self and see

It's a nice remake, runs really well (+on Linux). Strange how many people are complaining, especially those complaining that it "doesnt translate to pc well", when the original house of the dead was released on PC/Windows in 1998. Plays very much like I remember it playing on Windows in the early 2000's. Certainly not the same challenge as it would have been in an arcade, but the arcade versions were made to be more difficult for a reason ($$$).

Good bit of nostalgia, a well made port/remake, and I'm looking forward to the release of the second one. No complaints from me.
