Aug 19, 2008

With Halloween around the corner, a handful of horrifying games are being prepped to leave their pants-wetting-induced mark on your couch this fall. Some of the titles listed don’t yet have US release dates (The Last Guy, Ghostbusters, Fatal Frame), but we’re confident they’ll be hitting our shores sooner rather than later. And like any great horror game, the ones listed below require you to rely on your noggin (and a small ...

Fatal Frame IV Ships With Crippling Bugs (News)

Aug 8, 2008

A lot of impatient folk imported Fatal Frame IV when it came out in Japan this week, rather than wait around for someone to announce a US ship date, and they may be regretting it. The game shipped to stores with some crippling bugs unfixed. Most of the bugs are documented at the NeoGAF forum, the most severe causing the game to freeze and lock up. These sort of errors tend to be fixed before North American releases, but Tecmo has apparently released some extremely buggy DLC content for Ninja Gaiden 2 in the US.

Fatal Frame IV (Preview)

Jun 20, 2008

The Fatal Frame games have established themselves as the byword for suspense-filled horror. There are no showers of blood or shotguns, no hideous demons with heads attached to their backsides, and definitely no muscle-bound heroes called Jack. Instead, you play as a fragile-looking Japanese schoolgirl and are only ever armed with a flashlight and a special camera that can exorcise the ghosts that haunt whatever spooky location it is that you ...

Fatal Frame IV - coming soon? (Preview)

Jan 15, 2008

Jan 15, 2008 Fatal Frame IV (or Project Zero in Europe) is set to be another example of how the Wii dominates Japan via Nintendo-exclusivity. In this survival horror series, ghosts are your enemies; and because being incorporeal makes them resilient to sticks and stones (words will never harm them), the only way to defeat them is to take their photo, thus sealing their souls in the film. (The current iteration uses SD cards ...

Tecmo Planning Next Fatal Frame for Wii (News)

Sep 26, 2007

Tecmo has been silent about Fatal Frame for some time now, but that doesn't mean the horror franchise has been forgotten. To the contrary, 1UP learned at the Tokyo Game Show that Tecmo's enlisted the help of Grasshopper Manufacture to produce the next Fatal Frame game. And here's the kicker: it's for the Wii.
Grasshopper will start on Fatal Frame when work on No More Heroes, recently announced for a US release via Ubisoft, has finished. Given that No More Heroes was developed on Wii, Grasshopper seems content on Nintendo's console.

Taking photographs of ghouls has been a part of Fatal Frame since day one, so motion controls certainly make sense for the series, but the last we heard about the next Fatal Frame seemed to have Microsoft and Sony's consoles in mind. "I already have some ideas that I'd like to do if I had more development time and a more powerful system," said Fatal Frame 3 Producer Keisuke Kikuchi all the way back in July 2005.

Then again, in 2005, no one knew Wii was going to blow up, either.
