Do you like ‘Guitar Hero’? Do you like ‘House of the Dead’?  Then you’ll love Epicenter games upcoming budget Wii title “Rock of the Dead”.  Using your GH controller, you need to play the riffs that appear over each walking undead to kill them in a la ‘Typing of the Dead‘.  The game features a co-op play mode and classical music done in the rock style for the soundtrack.  Epicenter have also managed to rope in the stars of the internet based cult series ‘Dr. Horrible‘, Neil Patrick Harris and Felicia Day, to lend their voices to the protagonist and his interest.

While I’m not saying that this will be the best game the Wii has ever seen, it certainly seems to have the potential to be a cult classic…  Let’s just hope it lives up to it!

‘Rock of the Dead’ is expected to be a budget title at retail costing  $30 to $40 when it shambles its way onto the shelves this summer.
