How Much Did It Cost to Beat The House of the Dead 2 in 1998?
Arcade Economy
Hi All, I'm Steve and I run a YouTube series called Arcade Economy where I look at classic arcade games to determine how much they cost to beat when they released, then adjust that cost for inflation. I dissect the gameplay mechanics to determine just how fair each game is and this week I'm looking at Sega's The House of the Dead 2.
I'm still not sure if this format works for this platform, but I'd love to share the series with anyone who appearciates gaming, so I am open to all y'all's feedback! I can also drop my script in here too for people who prefer reading.
The House of the Dead 2 is a first-person light gun shooter arcade game with a horror theme and the second game in The House of the Dead series of video games. The direct sequel to The House of the Dead, it was developed by Sega for arcades on the Sega NAOMI board in November 1998 then later ported to the Dreamcast in 1999 and Microsoft Windows in 2001, and is also found on the Xbox as an unlockable bonus in The House of the Dead III. The game appears in the compilation The House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return for Wii. The Dreamcast version became a Sega All Stars title.
