Lindbergh Hardware System
HOTD – 4 is the first release on Sega's new Lindbergh hardware system. Lindbergh delivers graphics and sound approaching motion picture quality. But the power of Lindbergh isn't just about good looks and a sexy voice. Lindbergh is capable of managing more information then any hardware system ever developed. This means more action on the screen and greater depth of play. In HOTD – 4 you'll see Lindbergh flex its muscle as wave after wave of blood thirsty Zombies descend upon you in numbers you've never experienced before.

About the House of the Dead Franchise
At the IAAPA show in 1997, Sega Amusements USA, Inc. unveiled the original House of the Dead, (HOTD) a new genre of first person shooting games. HOTD introduced in-depth story lines where brave heroes fought valiantly to save the lives of innocent civilians from an onslaught of demonic demons and evil geniuses bent on destroying the entire human race. HOTD changed the role of the player from doing nothing more then reacting to random video to one of actively participating in the course the game would take. Since then, Sega has placed close to 20 thousand HOTD games into the world wide markets. Conservative estimates indicate these games generated in excess of $500 million dollars in gross revenues making it one of the most popular and profitable video game franchises of the last 10 years.
