NoobFeed.com brings you the latest on The Hidden for 3DS. Majesco Entertainment released the launch date, a brand new trailer and some screenshots to commemorate this augmented reality game, coming this November.
"Say what you will about the wholly unoriginal name, the ideas explored in The Hidden grab your interest fairly easily. Forcing you to suspend your disbelief of having evil creatures roam around the air around you, The Hidden makes use of augmented reality in hopes of creating an immersive experience. And with the 3D Screen serving as a contributing role for such a feeling in past projects, it probably seemed like things were working in the game's favor. But of course, a mere interest can only be sustained into something more if the game itself is actually worthwhile." -- Wiiloveit.com
NWR: A game that should have stayed hidden.
I don't know where to begin with this travesty of a game. What started out as an interesting concept could not possibly have gone any more wrong.
The Hidden advertises itself as “an Augmented Reality ghost hunting adventure”, putting you in the position of a new recruit at the Ghostly Entity Investigation and Strike Team (G.E.I.S.T.). The idea is that you can wander around the streets “patrolling” for paranormal activity, with your 3DS camera giving you the ability to see beyond our plane of existence as you search for “shades”.
PixlBit | "Picking up my pace, trying not to run, but rushing to get safely back home – I glance over my shoulder to see if anything is behind me. I am freaked out. Paranoid. Skittish. I’m not looking for otherworldly critters or anything, I’m worried I might get arrested or -- at best -- confronted by a pissed off neighbor. I’ve been skulking around my neighborhood at odd hours and spending minutes at a time spinning in front of strangers’ homes, occasionally taking pictures. I should be put in the slammer just based on appearances. But really, I’ve just been playing The Hidden and hating every minute."
