Survival Horror Game "Cursed Mountain" Announced For The Wii
A survival horror game on the Wii? Be still my black little heart! Developer Deep Silver is working on a survival horror game called Cursed Mountain. Left behind are the gothic horror trappings and shambling zombies of other games of the genre. This game takes place, as the title implies, in the Himalayan Mountains. From the press release:
Set in the late 1980s, gamers will take on the role of a fearless mountaineer as he climbs into the Himalayas on a quest to find his lost brother. As he ascends the mountain, he encounters an ancient curse: the souls of the people who died in that region are stuck in limbo, caught in the Shadow World. Villagers, pilgrims, mountaineers and Buddhist monks - dead but not yet reincarnated - are all that is left on the mountain. Terrible visions will disorient him, and ghosts and demons block his path. But the question remains - is his brother still alive?
Sounds rather intriguing. I'll be sure to keep an eye on this one as it develops. If there's one thing the Wii could use at this point, it's games geared toward the non-family set. Cursed Mountain is expected to hit sometime next year.

This sounds like a more solid and evolved form of Eternal Darkness on the Gamecube [just going on the suffering visions line, mostly].
RE is kewl and all, but psychological and ghostly horror games intrigue me just a little bit more [like ED] XD
Here's hoping it's an exclusive...
I like the idea of Survival Horror on Wii, but until we see real screenshots I'm not going to get too excited.
On the subject of survival horror games on wii... Where's the Darkness? 0_o
