Product Description

Platform: PC

From the Manufacturer

Enter an all-new Evil Dead experience, as Ash finds himself arrested, convicted of murder, and sentenced to Sunny Meadows, an institute for the criminally insane. Though better than the madness he escaped hidden within the woods, he quickly learns the evil has only become more malevolent. Deep in the basement of an insane asylum, the mad Dr. Vingo Reinhard combines technology with The Book of The Dead, AKA The Necronomicon to fulfill perverted experiments of his very own. Hell-bent on using science to harness the Necronomicon’s powers, the malevolent doctor unleashes the book’s all-powerful Evil on the world--creating a new breed of Deadites, monsters, and experiments gone wrong, twisting reality into a hellish strudel and leaving humankind with that not-so-fresh apocalyptic feeling.

It’s just too bad for Vingo that the judge gave Ash a straightjacket instead of the needle...

Features:

• The ultimate Evil Dead experience! Experience some of the fiercest, action-packed, and punch-in-the-gut hilarious gameplay this side of biblical Armageddon.
• Meet Sam! For this first time ever, Ash has been forced to take on a partner--Sam, a three-foot tall Deadite who’s part empath, part wiseass, and all corpse! And he’s willing to use his flea-bitten carcass as anything, from a tiki torch to a bowling ball, to get his revenge. Ash would rather behead Sam then befriend him, but he’s going to need all the help he can get against the army of monstrosities that lie in wait.
• Dual weapon combos, hordes of baddies, and non-stop action! Join Ash and Sam as they battle evil--and each other--killing anything dead that moves with everything from harpoon guns to flame throwers to the world-famous chainsaw and shotgun combination special.

Product Description

Evil Dead: Regeneration follows along with Ash, the hero of the Evil Dead movies. Ash is the only survivor of the evils unleashed by the Necronomicon, that night in the cabin. Ash is blamed for it and sent to the Sunny Meadows institute for the criminally insane. He thinks he's safe and can rest now, but the perverted experiments of Dr. Reinhard are about to change that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bruce's jokes + Lots of fun and gore = Incredible game, October 30, 2005

This game is awsome! You get to have all the great jokes from Bruce Campbell as well as getting several hours of hacking through deadites with a chainsaw and your Boomstick. You even get more atachments for your arm in the game as well as a few more guns. If your worried about it only being as good as the previous two games then dont worry, I played those and this beats them by far. Good grafics and gameplay. Much faster than the previous games. If you cant handle body parts flying all over the room then stay away from this game but if you love the Evil Dead movies or are a fan of Bruce Campbell then buy this game right now. Its very good and very addicting.

Warning for those that are not that good at key boarding (Like Me), you need an depth knowledge of your key board to play this game well. With that said, this is a wonderful game to play, levels change often and each one is unique. You will not get bored with this one, just as you're thinking (Man I'm getting tired of walking down these hallways) you move into the graveyard, the mines, the docks, the swamp, the town, and the Temple. Scenery's are lush and full of details you want in a good game, you can spend a lot of time just checking things out and looking around for life and evil energy orbs.
The automatic cinematic's are great and extremely engaging and at times very funny, Bruce Campbell's quick wit and funny banter with his new side kick Sam (Kick being the magic word) keeps you interested and wanting more.

My biggest problems with this game were the multiple key strokes needed for special moves and finishing moves. I had to play blood and guts style, since I really, really suck at muli-key stroking. The other problem with the game is, most of the game you can use your mouse to control movement, but there are places that force you to change to using the (W,S,A,D keys for direction and the up, down, left, right keys to look and aim) This makes it very hard to use the other key combinations for fighting, special moves, and finishing moves.

If you're good at keyboarding you will love the flow of this game and get through it just fine, if you suck at it like I do, be ready for hard battles and some frustration. Hint; remember where the save points are and save often after each hard fight so you don't have to repeat several hard fights.

I would have given this game a five star score but the key boarding and changes needed in areas and fights make it hard to play.

On a final note, the extras are great; the interview with Bruce is opened if you can find the hidden extra pages, worth collecting if you want to see the entire interview and scene paintings.

Having just watched Evil Dead, Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness I decided to look up "Evil Dead" on IMDB, and found this gem.

Great storyline (almost Doom3-esque) decent gfx (which play smooth on anything faster than an Atari 5200) and awesome gameplay. Did I mention it stars Bruce "Ashly" Campbell? The only one-handed one-man wrecking crew with his trusty boomstick, chainsaw and a new Deadite friend named Sam who enjoys getting kicked around, literally. Along with a few new items you pick up along the way.

If you loved the Evil Dead series, buy this today. I mean c'mon for the price how can you lose?
If you love having fun and killing things, buy this today.
If you have $8 hiding somewhere (check those sofa cushions), buy this today.
