  1. A shadow of one of the former masters of survival horror, that is better equipped to bore than scare.

It got below par reviews and I have no idea why. It's the closest to the original so far - in the way that it feels less 'linear' as you run around town looking for clues etc. The graphics are excellent and the story is pretty decent too. The only thing that niggles me slightly is the fact that now and again the music becomes noticably 'un-scary.' Full Review »

    Genuinely scary in several parts. One of the most beautiful games I've seen on the XBOX and a whole lotta' fun!
