When House of the Dead: Overkill was released for the Nintendo Wii, older gamers rejoiced, finally seeing some more mature titles on the mostly kid-friendly console. However, it almost seemed too forced with the characters swearing and cursing to the point where you wanted to slap them in their face to shut up. Although a good game, the game just didn’t satisfy my adult, light-gun craving. It was, well, Overkill. EA and Visceral Games is hoping to up the ante a bit with their release of Dead Space: Extraction, the prequel to the graphically intense, 3rd person shooter Dead Space, released last year on both the 360 and PS3. Did they hit the mark in keeping the creepy, mature theme of the original, or is this just another sorry attempt at an adult game on a system targeted for kids? Read on and we shall see!
