wtf? a survival horror game on 360 I have not heard about?

I want to know more. Zombies? Demons from hell? Fixed camera? Is a little girl involved?

Not far enough to know, but I would say demons from hell. Non-fixed camera, over the shoulder ala Resident Evil 4.

 

So far, this is what I gather from the game:

  • Story is really odd and abstract. You start the game in the freakiest of locations
  • Weapons are pretty varied...My fiancee is about 30 minutes in and has like 3-4 weapons. Melee weapons degrade at a frenetic pace (iron clubs last 4-5 hits on an enemy, but they do kill an enemy in one hit).
  • You get money in the game to buy new weapons/health/ect
  • You must eat and sleep to stay alive
  • Has an open world, Alan Wake-esque area to it with a freeroaming driving component
  • Graphics are early X360-comparable...Dead Rising or in that area. Not PS2, but certainly not anything close to new. Good character models, bad animations.
  • Very scary music and SFX. Enemies have that 'The Ring/Grudge' type of freaky walking capability. They skip frames on the screen to get closer to you a lot quicker than normal. However, so far, most enemies are incredibly easy to dispatch.

Again, for what she has played, $20 is a great deal for the game. Its not a AAA horror game by any stretch of the imagination, but if your looking for survival horror and need a fix pre-Alan Wake...This one has seemed to be pretty decent.

Thanks. Buying this for sure. I am looking to buy somethig used to keep me busy after i finish Alien vs predator and before nighty nine nights 2 comes out...this will fill that void great.

Sometimes the unpredictable "bad" games are much more fun than pretidcable good games. I sense this is the case we have here...

Yeah, its kind of like the 'Earth Defense Force' of survival horror.

Shit...then its a must buy! :)
