Remember Splatterhouse? Oh yeah, honey. Possibly the first of its kind, this was a truly grotesque masterpiece. In fact, I take back what I said about Altered Beast, Splatterhouse 3 was very much in the same vein, and is just as worthy of praise. Anyway, Namco Bandai (Namco being the original developer) is resurrecting the series with a next-gen overhaul. Just thinking of the brilliant horror this game could accomplish on a system these days is absolutely divine.
