The PS2 originals were always classics to me and the Wii Japanese only game Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse had a lot of uniquely brilliant terror to it ( there’s a fantastic fan translation online) Now I wasn’t the biggest fan of the original WiiU release of Project Zero: Maiden Of Black Water but with Halloween knocking on our doors will the PS4 release make this the perfect spooky Halloween experience or is it just a wet blanket?įor all its issues the WiiU had games that were essentially ahead of the hardware they were on. The series has always been steeped in Japanese horror tropes and the gameplay will switch between slow paced third person spooks and fast paced action photo taking.

The Project Zero ( or Fatal Frame) series is a rare kind of Japanese horror game that focuses more on the ghost and paranormal side of terror rather than the grotesque or bizarre. That film is the Japanese original, Ju-On. Not because it’s bad, in fact it’s just too good at terrifying me and left a hell of a lasting impression. There’s one horror/mystery film I’ve seen once and that was enough, never again.
