S-C-R-E-A-M! Sega has sprung a surprise release of The Typing of the Dead: Overkill on Steam. Available half-off for $10 through November 1, the game fuses the House of the Dead series with a typing tutor. A typing tutor that teaches you that if you don't learn to write 60 WPM you're going to be zombie chow.source: Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/246580/), joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/10/29/the-typing-of-the-dead-overkill-out-now/)
This typing tutor also comes with a "full and faithful port" of the original PS3 edition of House of the Dead. There are also plans to add a two-player co-op multiplayer "shortly after launch as free DLC." The game will go up to its regular price of $20 after Halloween.
It needs you to type more than 60 words a minute? Even with my nerve damage in my right arm, I still type faster than that. Still, it sounds oddly like fun, despite how typing tutors usually are the exact opposite.
Been playing this for a few hours now, its so cheesy but so was the original.
I like it so far.
Well, its a port of House of the Dead: Overkill for the PS3 to the PC. It includes this full version too, you can switch between the regular version and the Typing of the Dead version.Been playing this for a few hours now, its so cheesy but so was the original.

I felt uber raped by a few recent steam purchases, so I just want to make sure for this..

Seems like 7 missions. If my memory is correct thats about the same as the original, they are a fair bit longer.
If you're looking for a review just look up reviews for that PS3 game. I don't think there would be that many changes apart from it of-course being played with a keyboard and stuff.
Multi-player support seems to be coming in the future, as well as DLC vocabularies. (I really want to play this with friends.)
It includes online leader boards and all that jazz for showing off your typing skills. ;)
Whoops, 9 missions*Well, its a port of House of the Dead: Overkill for the PS3 to the PC. It includes this full version too, you can switch between the regular version and the Typing of the Dead version.Been playing this for a few hours now, its so cheesy but so was the original.
