But...I thought it was terrific. Definitely worth another game, I thought they did a bang up job.

Funny how most of these Wha Happuns involve the publisher screwing over the developers by giving them impossible goals and/or forcing them to redo everything to follow the current trend, but here it's the other way around where the publisher told them to do one thing and the devs just blew them off and did something else. Honestly after seeing these clips I'm kinda interested in this game now, it sort of has that schlocky PS2 era jank that I miss.

There was some rumblings that Namco wanted a Splatterhouse game on Dreamcast back in 98.

I am shocked you didn't mention the ending, because even after all that the ending was so bad and unfinished it truly was a killing blow to even any hopes of closure

This game really needed the extra year of development time with the final dev team. An October 2011 release with the extra polish and fine-tuning would've made of done wonders. Granted it's a miracle the game turned out as good as it did. Also worth noting that the story of the reboot was written by 2000AD writer Gordon Rennie.

Everytime I see one of these videos, i find myself incredibly grateful that I never decided to get into the gaming industry. Splatterhouse does sound interesting though. I kind of hope it finds new life eventually.

It never seemed worth the money and it still doesn't. Especially now. People are trying to act like it's valuable but it's not and there's a reason it's underrated. It'd be a better game if it didn't just focus on killing monsters. It should have been more like Friday the 13th

Despite how horrendously unpolished this game is... I actually really like Splatterhouse 2010. It's quite a fun action horror game with some neat bosses, beautifully grotesque levels and stages, and interesting story, and some great character interaction between a smart ass and a dweeb as they fumble across space and time to save a girl from the end of the world. It's a great game to play on Halloween, along with Bloodborne, Resident Evil 1 and 4, Nightmare Creatures, Medievil, and Dead Space. That, and it comes with the original three games, making it the most complete collection of the series in one sitting. Even if you didn't like the base game, you can then just play Splatterhouse 1, 2, and 3 in their original splendor in the extra's menu after finishing your first runthrough. A nice little bonus for everyone, really.

I actually enjoyed splatterhouse 2010

I love this game. being able to unlock the older games was worth the purchase for me alone.

This is the rare case where the publisher had the right idea and wanted it to succeed and make a good game, but it was the lead developer that ruined the game by ignoring what Namco wanted and it was still a decent/good game all things considered because Namco did step in and hired the others in that company.

pretty obvious but ride to hell retribution, i know you have no desire to even look at it after your complete playthrough....and incidentally you guys are heros for that....but it is a story that needs telling

You know, beating this game felt like there was supposed be a secret boss or ending. Was hoping that I could unlock it with a 100 percent complete but nothing happened, maybe it was planned but couldn’t do it with the rush? This is still one of my favorite Xbox 360 and Jim Cummings did the voice of the mask, a lot of top notch stuff in here

I've always hoped this game might get a sequel, even now. It was rough around the edges and somewhat repetitive, but I still find myself going back to it, the story was as said surprisingly fleshed out with the Dr being a really well written character, the mask is such a damn fun character and it wore it's love for horror on it's sleeve so damn earnestly. It's a shame to hear it's development was so messy.

I remember being crazy hyped for this game when it was announced. But during the development you could really tell it was going through hell. It had a lot of problems but it was still fun enough for me to want to keep playing. You could really tell they put a lot of love into it, even though it’s not the best game in the series. It was definitely a game made for the fans.

I actually love this game I really enjoyed it when it came out in 2010.

I'd love to see a 2.5D remake of this game, maybe pluck an indie developer or Wayforward or someone to head it up. To me at least, that is where Splatterhouse was the most fun, it being a side scroll just laced with atmosphere and leaving the imagination to fill in what was going on. It was cool they included some of the advice from the fan site, West Mansion in it. Some truly creepy stories are in their fanfiction area.

Man, I've still got this game. I never finished it, I lost a few times at the end because I failed the defense mission, put it down and told myself I'd try again later, and...never did. I thought it was fun in a pretty bland way, obviously could've been done better, but for what it turned out to be I didn't mind it. Also Jim Cummings is rad as hell when they're not using the same voice clip every thirty seconds.

I walked all the way to Shellbyville with an onion tied to my belt, as was the style at the time!

Man I got so excited at the end with the post of the house, but it hit me so hard when it was just some stupid SAO expansion. I feel like Splatterhouse deserves some sort of soft reboot again for next generation consoles.

I was one of those people that followed this game's development, but I was worried early on, mainly because the developers seemed so focused on making the game EXTREME TO THE MAX, while completely losing sight of all the other aspects of the series. The tone, mood, atmosphere, suspense, etc. all seemed to be absent. It felt like a caricature of the previous games. After awhile, what little interest I had left went away from the extremely long wait. I never got to play it, so I'd like to hear from those that did. Was there more to it than steroids, testosterone, extreme gore, and generic, pounding metal music? The biggest compliment I ever hear this game get is that it comes with the other three main games on the disc, which doesn't exactly entice me to give it a shot.

Splatterhouse has the best creature designs I swear...

J. Beard, LOL.... Sounds like a perfect name for a video game villain!

A new Wha Happun for my birthday! Saw you today too but didn't want to interrupt your conversation lol. I think a Wha Happun about Sonic 06 and Secret Rings would be pretty great (even if they're kinda beaten to death by this point :P)

the game was rough, but damn that combat was awesome. I spent a ton of hours in the arena modes, just being a total asshole to enemies. If only it had more variety of enemies, levels, and executions, I think the game would of been perfect

I love this game. It sucks we'll never get a sequel to that cliffhanger ending.

R.I.P Splatterhouse franchise, we Miss your game and we never forget about those memories😭😭😢😢!

Splatterhouse needs to come

I still really enjoyed Splatterhouse 2010 and even now 10 years later I wish they would do a proper sequel.

I’ve been watching some of this videos and the thing that always seems to be on this fails is either one shit company making bad decisions or one person with an ego so inflated that they just “play” on projects because he liked to do what they wanted instead of what was asked or fans wanted, and that is an instant fail from the very beginning.

My dad used to play this in front of me as a kid. I loved the game so much but I couldn't remember what it was called. Then I remembered and my dad got it for me on the PS3 for my birthday when I was turning 11. I'm now 19 and i still have the game along with the ps3. I play it at least once a year. Its interesting to go deeper into why people don't really like the game. I also can't believe how rare it is now. There's people selling it for as much as 80 bucks.

This series shouldn't be killed by one guy, wish Namco would give it another shot.

Same here

Splatterhouse on the TG-16 was insane, legit scary too as a kid. I was 5 or 6 and my neighbor had it. Just seemed absolutely insane, it was like watching an actual horror movie, ha.

I wanted a sequel of this one. It wasn't a perfect game but it kept me interested and I saw potential in a sequel.

Namco: Alright, all we need you to do is to just make a simple but fun brawler with a gritty artstyle and lots of blood. Got it? Bottle Rocket: Yes, a Rise of the Kasai clone with HR Geiger inspired monsters.

I know every team needs an advisor or creative manager but hearing of this kind of management and how much power they have to over take these projects is so concerning and sucks that the only solution would be for a rep to babysit the whole time.

I wish I knew how to make games. If I did I’d make the next Splatterhouse

I brought this game for me and my son and we loved it even to this day.

I actually really enjoyed this game despite the flaws, but then again I am a huge fan of horror in general and slashers in particular. All in all I thought it was a pretty fun, if rough, beat'em up.

I’m still in love with this game and beat it many times. I think it’s a good old school style beat em up that came out a little too late. I’m still hoping they try again.

The game is pretty decent. I think the biggest redeeming quality of the game that wasn't mentioned is that the original trilogy is included with it.

What's funny is Bandai Namco is one of those publishers that is pretty chill with you trying new stuff so long as you also do what they asked you to do and they didnt actually ask for much with this one

I remember this game thoroughly and I can't lie I loved it. It was rough but once i got into it, I really enjoyed the play through

This game has THE WORST Achievement/Trophy requirements for those God-awful Survival Arena stages. I was getting PTSD flashbacks while watching this video.

I still love this game man. Everything about it. Sigh.

I'm there with ya. Actually pre-ordered it and got the Terror Mask Replica because I was so excited. Still have it to this day, and don't regret it, I just wish the game attached had been more successful.

@@RotaAbyssian you have WHAT? i give you my kidneys for it

Y’know what makes this game awesome? Jim god damn Cummings

I still love this game to bits, and await a sequel or reboot with baited breath. The fact that it has the original 3 games as unlockables is noteworthy in it of itself, and the game is actually a pretty fun ride, and I find myself playing it every year around this time.

Nothing but respect to Jim I literally grew up on Saturday morning cartoons but having to hear a fowl mouthed Darkwing duck while struggling with this regrettable purchase just made it worse.

Great video as always my dude! If I am to make a suggestion, how about a Wha Happun? about Soulcalibur V? The gap between it and Soulcalibur VI was very long for the franchise, being about six years, and I've heard that if VI doesn't sell well then the franchise will likely disappear (although thankfully I hear it's doing well). I've also heard fairly bad things about the development, so I'd love to know what happened there.

Wish they would’ve kept Rick in his green jumpsuit. He looks like a random hulking monster instead of the Jason knockoff we wanted

Honestly, I really liked Splatterhouse 2010. Part of it was probably that I had seriously tempered my expectations because I knew what a clusterfuck the development had been, but I dug it, flaws and all. I loved the story (the decision to lean into Lovecraftian themes was a great one), the characters and the atmosphere enough to accept and push through the rough patches. And honestly, the original Splatterhouse games were nothing to write home about in the gameplay department. Those games thrived on their gory presentation and tone, so in that sense, Splatterhouse 2010 is a perfect successor. It's a shame that Namco seems to have taken its failure to heart so much, as I'd love to see a sequel to it.

I don't even remember any advertising for this game , the only reason i knew of it's existence was because i was on vacation from work one year and i just happened to spot it on the shelf at Blockbuster ( yeah ). I played it all the way through over the next week and MUST have thought it was fun because it's rare that i get through a game that quick , though to be fair a good amount of alcohol was involved , lol

Wha Happen: The Grudge: Haunted House Simulator Great video by the way!

When I saw this in my feed I thought it was going to be Matt shitting on it.(Even though I think tbfp did a fun video of it) Nice to see Matt and some people give some props despite having a lot of issues. I also enjoyed it a lot, sucks how everything went down.
