Default Typing of the Dead, The

I just got this game off HOTU, and damn is it good fun!

In case you've never heard of it, it's a PC port of a Dreamcast game- it's basically House of the Dead 2, except instead of using a lightgun to shoot zombies, all the mosters have text boxes floating in front of them. You have to type in the phrases in the box to kill the monsters!

It sounds strange (and it is), but it's also a lot of fun, and the phrases you have to type are funny too. It's hard to concentrate on killing a boss when you're typing in the story of the unluckiest vampire in the world (I should never have got married. My wife replaced my coffin with a sunbed!), or lamenting how love poetry just doesn't work (Roses are red, violets are blue. No, wait, violets aren't blue. Violets are violet! Sugar! what rhymes with violet?)

Great fun. Don't really know why I made this topic (at over 100 megs for a soundless rip, it's too big for Abandonia), but I just felt like sharing this with you all.
