    This game looks like they got the people that worked on Bust-a-Groove and NiGHTS into Dreams and forced them to make a Dino Crisis / Resident Evil clone.

      The comparison to Dead Rising in the video is pretty accurate. Basically the game takes place during Christmas, and the music we keep hearing is supposed to be festive while everything around you is fubar. It's kinda like how the mall in Dead Rising will continue to play automated upbeat mall music during the day while you're surrounded by zombies and carnage.

    Man I still love this game. It was the game I got with my DC a few days after launch. I just replayed it not even a week ago. It's not great by any means and definitely a b-movie RE clone. Yet I still find charm in it's jankiness.
    A few fun things of note:
    Occasionally when the coins pop out of the dead monsters it almost makes it seem like they're shitting them out upon death.
    You totally killed a guy with the shuttle A and B two minute countdown. You have to activate the computer terminal on the left in the first room at the top of A's elevator shaft. If you save the dude you get a napalm launcher which is a nice powerful weapon for boss fights.
    And lastly a full playthrough of this game is highly recommended for anyone who hasn't. Without spoiling anything the story is increasingly insane and hilarious. Exploration pays off so if you want better weapons for free and a bunch of goodies along the way make sure to poke around.

    One big thing I remembered was this being a game I first owned on the SEGA Dreamcast and that was the one game I had issues with was with the disc. Each time I'd go to the store to swap discs, they'd have warps on the bottom making them unplayable. After finally getting the right disc, I personally had my fun with the game. Remembered the game having it's share of issues but certainly was one title I wouldn't mind replaying one day again. Would certainly be cool for a remake or reimagining down the line.

    Any plans on playing Illbleed? I've still got my copy, such a weird and compelling game
