If you're anything like us, you've had the upcoming Splatterhouse remake fresh in your mind ever since this week's positively terrifying reveal of Splatterhouse shoes. Thankfully, Namco also released a handful of fresh screens of the game, riddled with various creature parts and – shock! – gallons of blood. Sure, the 13-year-old in us is just about as stoked for a new Splatterhouse game as one could be. Unfortunately, the 25-year-old in us still needs a lot of convincing that the franchise is worth revisiting before next year's Q3 release.

I'm not sure I'm convinced either, but I do like how your character seems to get increasingly covered in blood the more you pummel things into oblivion.

Did that happen in Madworld? I don't remember it. Good game, though.

Anyone else reminded of Peter Jackson's horror movies?

I'll buy this day one either way, even if it sucks. It seems they've kept everything Splatterhouse about Splatterhouse, and that's enough for me.
The game needs to have a Troma Ent. quality to it though, like House of the Dead: Overkill, and a soundtrack by Municipal Waste, it could be amazing.

this game looks sick! is it like an arena style game sorta like quake? where the main goal is to frag opponents with your fists?

I have no idea but the phrase "frag opponents with your fists" has to be integrated into the ad campaign for this, that fist of the north star game, the next beat-em-up... ANYTHING, really

Later, at the doctor's office...
The good news: you've defeated the demon hoard with only a few minor cuts and scrapes.
The bad news: you have hepatitis C.

Looks good. Makes you wish games wouldn't be quarreled over between developers and publishers, instead be MADE and RELEASED like every other game.

Hey, you can't judge based on these screenshots!
But yeah it probably will be.

Looks like every grandmother's (or any other elderly lady's) nightmare. Must be a good game.

The 27-year-old in me says "YEAH! Finally lots of blood!!!"
