I only got to play about 5 minutes but I wasn't impressed hopefully later in the game it picks up.

Are you reviewing the game? If so cool, cause so few sites, other then IGN it seems, review wii games with any consistency. It's been looking for other reviews for this game for a while now.



The Interweb is about overreaction, this is what makes it great!

...Imagine how boring the interweb would be if everyone thought logically?

No I was playing it at a friends house who was renting it.  He stopped playing it because it's pretty ugly at the start, I'll probably check it out, but I suck at survival horror games and if I don't beat it then I can't put up a review.  But if I can then it'd be a good idea, the game is very niche, and few reviews and few people know of the game.

Oh okay good deal, Thanks. I'm probably going to have to find somewhere to rent it from cause I'm not sure blockbuster will stock it cause the one I go too STILL doesn't have The Conduit to rent, lol. Looks like I picked a bad time to cancel my Gamefly account...>_>

German N-Zone gave it also a score of 82%

Controls: 78
Graphics: 84
Sound: 86

+ no loading times within the chapter
+ great german voice dubbing ()
+ great atmosphere
- slow pace, dull controls

Looks like a decent enough effort. Nothing spectacular, but pretty solid.

I picked it up on the 18th.

I was so satisfied with it. I'd definitely recommend it to any fan of survival horror.

The fact that it released in Europe before many reviews were out is not a good sign.

Why? Its a low budget Wii game by a small developer. No one probably got a free copy or anything. The tons of previews have ALL been very positive too, thats an excellent sign.

 



“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.

Sounds right up my alley based on that review. Looking forward to it but I just picked up Tenchu 4 and am getting Batman AA tomorrow so it'll be a while before I can get to this.

Yea its interesting what the review says, its the first proper Wii horror game. LOL, i guess the on rails shooters and wii remakes don't qualify.
