I know it's illegal to link Rom sites here.

But is it illegal to PM them? Someone sent me a Private Message and they want me to send them a link to the rom site. I haven't decided yet, because I'm not too sure about the rules on this situation.

Nice engine and controls seem nice enough but the game seems ridicuously easy and short? I'm already on Chapter 3 and  barely anything has happened and I've only played for 10-15 minutes

I read it's sposed to last 12hrs though I find that hard to believe....

Yeah, I think more time will need to be given before making a determination. My take on the game, from what I've seen in previews and whatnot (and I've been keeping close eye on this particular game), suggest that the first few chapters are merely to acquaint the player with the basics of how the game plays out.

My guess is things will start to ramp up before you know it.

You're wrong.

From the first three brilliant chapters the scares are basically from your own paranoia! This game does a great job at that, you're always looking around for something to shock you. So far its strayed away from trying to unload a crap load of cheap shock scares onto you, and as an really good way of building the tension up.

Graphics, we've seen them in videos but they're better on the DS! Amazing, no dip in the framerate so far and it really grabs you in. Voice works pretty good too but the sound is sound is where this game succeeds, I've always thought that sound is the most important factor in a horror film or game and the developers here know it too. Good atmospheric music, nice voice work and it really does give a great feeling tension in the game. You really should have headphones on so you can listen to every sound, it'll improve the game.

Control wise, very good no complaints at all but as with Brothers In Arms & Metroid Hunters you'll probably get a bit of a DS elbow and wrist. Its not a first person shooter, it feels like a survival horror game only in first person.

This is the second horror title I played this week as well as Jericho on the 360, this game seems much despite the DS's. I was expecting PSX style gameplay, I got something a hell of a lot more. As I said I've only gone through 3 chapters so this could change like most games like this.

I'm going back to this little beauty.

Now, despite the early release, I'm only going to play this on Halloween. Sounds stupid, but that's just me.

What is done in PM's is our own business.


This game seems pretty nice so far......I'm gonna start it over with headphones later tonight.

Didn't take long to get to chapter 3......

That would get you banned because you are still Providing a Link to a Rom.

From Teh RulesMembers may NOT ASK and MAY NOT PROVIDE LINKS for and to websites that provide ROMs for download.

So the member who asked you should be banned/warned.

I, may, be very wrong. I suggest to you to not do it.

BTW: I'm not trying to be a Mod by replying to you with this, I'm just some guy trying to make a living

Thanks Rayder. I was waiting for an answer.

Whatever, I'll never send anyone ROM sites anyways...

They just need Google...

scary scenario
flashlight
weird creatures
lotsa blood
a strange kid running around
piano sounds
unnerving industrial noises

this game has A LOT ripped from the silent hill series.
but don't get me wrong, this is actually cool because this way there's finally something scary and mature for the ds coming along.
so far it's kinda trying to be psycho-style (and with the headphones and the volume cranked up it's actually succeeding at it) and i just finished the 3rd chapter, curious for more.
it's fast-paced and surprisingly smooth and fluid running.
not really any riddles yet, only stuff like 'read number here and type it in there'
still, interesting and definitely something the ds hadn't see until now.
fully recommended
