1UP recently interviewed some folks behind the scenes of Sega's upcoming shooter, House of the Dead: Overkill. For those of you who can't wait for zombie season like us, they were kind enough to drop another little bit of info about the title that is sure to excite. Within House of the Dead: Overkill, there will be unique challenges that, once completed, will unlock extras in the game.
Sega's producer on the game, Omar Woodley, describes one of the challenges as "gangsta style." See, when you kill 50 zombies while pointing the Wiimote sideways, like a "gangsta," then it unlocks a certain feature. Sadly, Omar wasn't willing to give it up on the feature, but the prospect of other unique challenges such as this does sound fun. Plus, there's the whole killing lots of zombies part of it.
Who else can't wait until February?

"Gansta Style"?
There must be some "bling bling" involved in the game (zombies with diamond chains, golden rolex, etc)
greetings to all of you..!!!

i thought this might be the game2buy for WII.. but does anybody know if i can use a light-gun type peripheral and if not, what can I play using a light gun to bring back the old HotD nostalgia? I recall all the fun I had playing HotD on the Sega Dreamcast...

I am so hyped for this game. Also looking forward to Dead Rising for Wii too. 2009 first quarter is going to be awesome.

Sounds cool. Hope there's lots of different extras to be unlocked for completing them. Already pre-ordered my Collectors Edition from HMV in the UK.
