I hadn't heard of the frighten a friend system! Nice, my boyfriend will be making me feel like shit since I get scared by everything. Definitely buying the first week of release.

Btw Spencer, how do you do it! This is by far always been my #1 favorite gaming site of all time but I always notice you post countless heaps of content every day. How do you handle all that by yourself? I know there are are other writers who contribute some previews or reviews but hot damn you do a lot of work. And we love every second of it. :)

I can see this being fun to play with my wife till I give her too good of a scare and she hits me with her Wii remote.

I played Silent Hill: SM too and it has motion control puzzles to solve. While both titles have roots in horror and are on Wii, Silent Hill is more like a game where Ju-On is more like an interactive playground you wander in… with ghosts.

There is a story and the objective is simply escape before you run out of batteries. You can play as different family members, each with their own area to explore.

Yeah that control scheme is right. Ju-On isn't like Killer7. You're not totally on rails, but this game doesn't have a wide open area either. Movements are clunky, but it's not like you need responsive control for split second dodges either.

I wonder how this will stack up against Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.
I was reading two articles of each game at the same time and got confused for a sec…

I don't really get it. Is there some sort of story mode in this game, or even just any objective to follow?

If it's just a “haunted house simulator”, then it better have a good bunch of different houses to explore, or it will get old very quick.

Between this and the new Silent Hill, it seems the horror genre is getting more games without combat in mind.

How is the controls in this game? You meantioned before about the control scheme of “B” for forward and “Down on Dpad” for back. Could you leave us with impressions on that? Are we being forced on a path or is it some odd way to give us tank controls?
Seeing as it's a Haunted House Simulator, I doubt we are looking at anything really deep here but since it's cheap and should provide what it was made for, I'll be sure to play this one sometime.
