I suppose that's really what it's about, then. It seems as if the survival horror genre has been shrinking for the past few years (only really popular in the PS1/N64 era), slowly being replaced by the action horror genre headed by the new Resident Evil direction and games like Dead Space.
It's not the game's fault. The whole genre is choking to death on its own corpulence. And corpses.
corpulence?
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Fancy word for fatness. I used it to suggest that the survival horror genre has become bloated on its own mechanics and became stale to the average consumer quickly.
(but mostly I used it because it sounds like corpses)
