10 Beloved Video Games That Deserve A Modern Reboot

4. The House Of The Dead

Considering the state of arcades now, it's no wonder that this beloved light-gun shooter has gone off the radar. 2009's House Of The Dead: Overkill was the last proper game in the series. It was also one of the best, with its cheesy Grindhouse tone creating moments of comedy gold that made it one of the funniest and most disturbing games in years. Overkill was originally released on Wii and has since been ported to many a platform, it even got its own Typing Of The Dead version on PC in 2013, but you can't help but feel that Sega could do a lot more with the franchise. HOTD would be a perfect fit for smartphones in a certain way, so why not do a Touching Of The Dead spin-off? It may sound a little random, but it could be fun. Overkill made an appearance on smartphones recently, so there may be hope for an exclusive spin-off series if it sells well.
