I can't wait to play another twin-stick shooter in the form of an IP of one of my favorite horror series!

/s

[smashcrashbash]

Oh yeah sure judge it on it's perspective and not if it is a good game or not.

@ SilentNegotiator. If you don't think it's bad then why the sarcasm? Lara becoming twin stick didn't destroy the adventure motif.So why should it destroy the survival motif of SH?

[SilentNegotiator]

I didn't say it was bad. I sarcastically said I was excited to play a game series I like that had jumped genres.

I don't like twin stick shooters. A lot of people don't like certain genres.
Do you need Mr. Rogers to explain that to you? Because this sounds more like the basic things that he teaches. "Some people don't like certain things. Do YOU like those certain things? We all like different things. And that's what makes us special"

"So why should it destroy the survival motif of SH?"

Ahhhh....that would be the MULTIPLAYER.

@SilentNegotiator LOL, Mr. Rogers...anyways, nobody is forcing you to play multiplayer...you CAN still play singleplayer, at least, that's what I plan to do. Then maybe I'll try multiplayer once I beat it.

In multiplayer I don't think you'll be with your team mates at all times either, pretty sure I read somewhere that you'll have to split up for puzzles and whatever else, which obviously will make you feel less safe and more vulnerable...I also read that you're still going to need a flashlight for most of the game, which could make for some interesting gameplay when you're separated from your team mates...so I don't think this will be exactly like most dungeon crawlers, in fact if it's done right (hopefully) I think it will be the first of its kind...ever...as a horror dungeon crawler. (unless there's one out there that I've never heard of lol)

I dunno, maybe it's wishful thinking lol (in the way that I'm hoping multiplayer or singleplayer will be)

[Phayz]

I retract my last comment...I think it will be good as a spinoff game...but I don't think it will be even remotely scary (after watching some gameplay from TGS on youtube). I'm still buying it though.

[SilentNegotiator]

It doesn't matter. It is DESIGNED to be multiplayer with SP simply being an option.

You can't have good scary sets with people all over the place (online) or making the camera vary zoom (offline).

It is FUNDAMENTALLY not a horror-friendly genre.

[tack129]

Sounds fun. I might give it a try and see how it goes.

[pr0digyZA]

will definitely try it out as this one could go either way.

[Cam977]

I'll give it a try... What I really want is Shattered Memoies on the PS STORE so I can get it on Vita because its the only one I've not played moreover; I missed the chance to play it when I actually had a PSP.

[Gekko]

Didn't expect it to be released so suddenly, will download!
