Logical? Of course. The new audience is more used to movie thrills. Easy and short storylines filled with basic emotions

There´s any emotion simpler than fear?

So, there we go:

JU-On
Silent Hill
Cursed Mountain

... theres more, right?

(and what´s the release date for Cursed Mountain?)

There's also The Calling. Some people might group Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles and Dead Space: Extraction in there.

This site says it's coming to Europe on the 4th of Sept.

N-Zone scored Cursed Mountain an 82. They complained about a slow pace and sluggish controls, but those are pretty common in a horror game. I'd say they're features, not bugs.

that's a good first review for CM. That Slow pace is normal in horrorgames, it's not an action game. Sluggish controls is a bit subjective. Sometimes i read that in a review and ponder where they got that from when i play it.

Those screens look pretty good.



wow, these screenshots make me want this game



I regret making this my username, I made this name when I was 13 years old

Life could always get worse, you could be a mod for Neogaf

This game doesn't look scary.


Nice screen, though, I especially like the snow on the dude's jacket.

Indded they are features.  As someone who's played all the Silent Hill games with the exception of Homecoming all I can say is "sluggish" controls don't really bother me in a horror game.

Pardon the dumb question, but is this a third person shooter, or just an adventure horror game?

Meh, the game is made in Austria and N-Zone are bad reviewers. Stay away from Cursed Mountain.

 

Really? I think N-Zone are good reviewers. I really trust them



It does look pretty good.

Well, there is some shooting, of a sort. Your pickaxe can be enchanted to shoot purifying lasers, or something like that.

But speaking as somebody who hasn't played the game, it looks like more of an adventure/horror game.
