If House Of The Dead Had 3D Zombies And A Vitality Sensor…

It would be Dark Escape 3D. Namco Bandai’s zombie shooting game uses a cabinet similar to Let’s Go Island 3D or Deadstorm Pirates since you sit down and aim a turret at oncoming zombies. What’s unique about Dark Escape 3D is the controller reads your pulse and sees if you stay calm when the game tries to scare you. It’s like the Vitality Sensor came back from the dead! (sorry…)

Dark Escape 3D also has rumbling seats and air guns that shoot puffs of air at players. I suppose this makes Namco Bandai’s four stage horror shooting game comparable to the rare House of the Dead 4 Special.
