I’ve heard great things about the Fatal Frame series. I’m looking forward to trying this out. Frankly, most of the survival horror games these days are a little light on the actual “horror” element. This looks to remedy that situation.
Hunter, didnt you here? This is a casual game now. Even worse, because it wasnt shown at the press events, the game doesnt exist.
Even worse, if it wasnt on the E3 floor nobody cares about it.
This week has been quite an irritant for me. Gamers are having a hard time accepting change and its grating on my nerves. Change being that E3 was always meant to be a media event, for companies to show off what they want to the media. Its not open to the public, and its not meant to be an orgyfest. Nintendo has decided that the expanded crowd is the hardest to reach and that E3 being the largest media gathering of the year is best used catering to that crowd, while we core gamers are able to gather info just fine online from gamer sites.
Nintendo knows how to reach us easily, they dont need E3 to do it. It may be bad for people who like to get hyped about E3, but I dont hate nintendo for it at all.
It does help that while i do want more variety in games, dark and light, i also liked what they showed alot, AC Wii, Wii Resort, and the incredible potential of WiiMotionPlus. I dont have any interest in any music games, but Wii Music even interests me because it reminds me of my youth when air instruments were the way to play. imagination is the key here, something gamers seem to have forgotten about in their desperate need to beat scores in games, as if games can have no other purpose.
Games are expanding. there have always been games that you dont need to beat, but games as imagination builders are expanding. i like that. i dont just like playing games, i like the idea of what games can do to benefit the world. i like seeing things evolve before my eyes. Seeing what gaming can do for people.
waltermh…my god…someone who understands as I do. I thought I’d never see the day. Everyone hates on Nintendo for their supposed bad press conference. In my opinion Microsoft was horrible…what did they have that was new other than raping FF?
Anyway, in my opinion all I needed to see was the MotionPlus and my jaw hit the floor. The potential their is incredible.
I don’t need to reiterate anything else…waltermh summed up Nintendo’s strategy perfectly.
I’ve always thought the Fatal Frame series were the most scariest out of all the survival horror games. I mean scary as in actually scared, not just grossed out or cheap scare tactics.

DAMMIT if that is not a scary lookin’ game…
Jesus. That went from ‘Meh.’ to ‘MUST BUY’ in the length of that trailer. Holy cow.

@ Sensai:
And it’s apparently coming out at the end of the month (31st)…in Japan. I wonder when it’ll get here…?

And for those who think Nintendo has abandoned the core, the big N is publishing this.

Is this even in the works for a US release? This looks too awesome!

Oh that’s right games for each platform only come in one flavor and there is no variety allowed thanks for clearing that up.

Man, even though these kind of games aren’t my thing, this one looks pretty stinking creepy.

suda 51 in on a game published by nintendo? awesome.
July 18th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
It reminds me of Sadness. Actually, it’s probably the closest thing we’re going to get to the game.
