Overkill broke the record for the most F-Bombs in gaming, but it almost didnt.
House of the Dead: Overkill, now known as the game which most often drops the ‘f-bomb’ (189 times) nearly didn’t make the Guinness Book of Records. Neil McEwan of HeadStrong recently said in an interview ‘There was a time when my scriptwriter was very nervous about the amount of swearing we had in the game and we even considered cutting a lot of it or bleeping it out. But in the end we’re pleased that we stuck with it.’ And yes, there’s always room for a sequel.
Ewan went on to say ‘when we were working on our characterisation for Agent G and Washington we gave them a backstory and because we feel a lot of love for these characters we worked out where they went after Overkill. So there’s definitely still scope in the Overkill universe.’ Vooks will tell you when it happens. Source: ONM
