hmmm.... whats the odds of it being in English? Id really like to give it a try but only if I can understand whats going on :)

callahan095853d ago

It's possible, though I'm not sure how likely. The audio samples that were on the teaser website were all in English.

Fishy Fingers5853d ago

Oh yeah, they were. Well I guess I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed.

This really looks like it can put the willies up you. As it were.

callahan095853d ago

Indeed. I'm always up for a new horror game, so I'll definitely be trying out this demo next week.

Skerj5853d ago

I always play demos from that store, the Armored Core 5 demo is SOOOOOO dope so I guess I will be getting this one sometime next month.

sonarus5853d ago

Usually the demos are half half. Could be half english half JP. Hopefully more ENG

Ghoul5853d ago

actually the trend in japanese videogames is at least english audio and menus, textures and such do still contain japanese letters and such.

-_- More japanese only crap. They got dual shock 3 first, prolouge first, they got yakuza's sequal(s) exclusivly and a bajillion other japan only games. I wanna play this remake badly, but odds are I'll have to import. so gay

lodossrage5853d ago

True, there are alot of jap only games (and i agree it sucks and isn't fair)

But things are changing. There is a fair chance this will come stateside.

heyheyhey5853d ago

not necessarily

both Siren 1 and 2 came out in all regions so there's no reason why this one can't

fenderputty5853d ago

to stimulate the JP market anyways. Give them all the games they want. Just stop buying the damned Wii. lol

Milky5852d ago

they got the worst version of GT5:P though. No AA in mirors, less cars etc.

Expy5853d ago

I think it'll be English, because the Trailer has English voicing in it.

name5853d ago

I'd still like to play the demo at least. We didn't even get a prolouge demo like they did either.

Fishy Fingers5853d ago

Just DL it from the Japanese store dude. You know how to make an account? need help give me a shout.

Wtf is mokujin doing on there?

I saw that they picked the armour spider from demons souls, but I would've picked the fat officials and their creepy laugh instead.

Scariest Video Games – Siren Blood Curse

"Siren Blood Curse was released in 2008 however it was only released on Disc in Japan, Europe, and Australia. In North America you had to purchase this from the PlayStation Store, unfortunately this game didn’t have much in terms of publicity. I am actually willing to wager that most of you reading this have never heard of Siren Blood Curse."

I have yet to play this game D:

codyodiodi4941d ago

You need to at least download the first chapter of this game, it's amazing.

MachinaMaw4941d ago (Edited 4941d ago )

Damn this looks scarier than Silent Hill.

Creepy pic btw...

SaiyanFury4940d ago

What's stupid is that I meant to download this game, I just forgot about it with all of the crap going on in my life. I'm a huge fan of Japanese survival/horror like Fatal Frame. My thanks to the author for reminding me about it. I will make a point of downloading it in short order. I do remember loving the demo. :)

mandf4941d ago (Edited 4941d ago )

Highly underrated. I still think the ps2 version is better. Lack of hd only made it better. They cut out a lot of stuff too. The ps2 version was insanely hard too. The snipers sucked.

Edit. Why the disagrees? I said nothing inflammatory. It was good game, not because it was exclusive.

sinncross4941d ago

Man, SCEJ need to add trophy and Move support to this game to help give it some exposure.

CrawFail4941d ago

It's a very good game. You can get it used (if you can find it) for about £12 these days. It's still rather expensive on PSN

CrawFail4940d ago (Edited 4940d ago )

Dear Stealth Disagree'er,

How the hell can you disagree with my previous comment?

Here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/...

£11.50!

PSN it's £20. 20 is a bigger number than 12 which makes the PSN version more expensive than the ones you can get used on disc.

christ!

DigitalAnalog4941d ago

Atmosphere however was delivered properly. It's just that, THE CONTROLS killed everything there is in this game. That, and the opening... gosh I didn't realize there was a path until I died 100 billion times with the first maniac.

-End statement

PickAShoe4941d ago

if this game was in 3D, i would get a heart attack.

DarkBlood4941d ago

i played a demo i believed but it was pretty good felt like re4 and scary as well

Gue14941d ago

This game's more than just good, it is awesome! Best horror game of this gen.

But if you have a slow connection it'll take a while to download the game, it's like 20GB or something.

codyodiodi4941d ago

It's well worth it though!

callahan094941d ago (Edited 4941d ago )

I thought it was more like 9 GB? Something like that?

DarkBlood4941d ago

yeah id have to not touch anything else for the rest of the month as i get only 25 gb usage less i upgrade it but someday i may do it but probably prefer a disc now that i just hear there is in other countrys, oh well

the_1080p_guy4940d ago

its 9735 mb if i remember correctly,but u can download episode by episode...there are 12 of them (u only need the 1st episode installed to enter the game).

it took me 15 hours to finish the game.Quite scary and pretty good at the same time.

Soundtracks are one of the best i've seen in horror games this gen.After game over,they give u a portable music player app so u can listen to the tracks...good

farhsa20084941d ago

I loved it, my favourite survival horror game ever

codyodiodi4941d ago

Fatal Frame 2 is my favorite survival horror game.

jony_dols4941d ago

Amnesia: The Dark Descent,is by far the scariest game available. (system requirements aren't that high and it's cheap on Steam.)

And I have played pretty much everything in the survival horror genre.

When you been caught by the monster.....(shudders) it is the scariest shit ever.

Myze4941d ago

@jony-dols

While I don't get scared by movies or video games, I will agree with you on Amnesia. While it didn't scare me, it is a scary game (if that makes sense) and an awesome one at that. I would strongly recommend the game to anyone with a PC to play it on. It's kind of short, but it is cheap. Strongly recommend Siren too, for that matter.

Darkstorn4941d ago

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is excellent, as is Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth. Those two games deserve to be tried by any fan of horror games (despite how relatively inaccessible they may be to a genre newcomer).

NecrumSlavery4941d ago

Not meaning to start a fight but Luigi's Mansion says hello?

jony_dols4940d ago

Please would people actually play Amnesia before disagreeing.

Films and Video Games don't scare me, but Amnesia is in a different league...

codyodiodi4941d ago

This game is definitely a must buy.

NYC_Gamer4941d ago

Sony should have also put this on disc for ppl with slow connections

gaden_malak4941d ago

It is on disc...at least it is in Australia.

callahan094941d ago

Yeah it's on disc everywhere but North America, I think.

ian724940d ago

I got it on disc a few years ago. I live in UK though. It is a very good horror game, well worth playing.
