Why is this still Japan-only?
Having played through several hours of the beginning of this game, I am left wondering that. The production value is top-notch, the gameplay itself seems to be just what an American audience would eat up, and although there are a lot of cultural references that maybe "only Japanese would get", I can guarantee you that fans of Fatal Frame, and just survival horror games in general, would still love this for what it is, even if they can't digest every single detail: the title that we have been waiting for since the genre fell into disuse in this past console generation. The story is a blend of the first two Fatal Frame games' pseudo-real-life location, and the third's multi-character development. Essentially, it revolves around two of five girls that were abducted to an island mansion, but cannot remember why, and the detective that rescued them ten years ago. The disjointed plotline keeps me on edge, wondering just what I'm going to discover next, while keeping clouded the actual events (though, since I've played two of the other three Fatal Frame games, I can make some guesses). However, what really keeps me on edge is the gameplay. Much like other so-called "survival horror" games nowadays (namely the Resident Evil and Silent Hill franchises, of course), Fatal Frame 4 picks up the pace quite a bit. UNlike them, however, it has managed to keep the core gameplay intact - but speeds it up by a hell of a lot! Granted, it seems much easier to kill ghosts now, but I'm thankful for that, because they float around so much faster now, and attack through walls with more frequency, popping up behind you and keeping you on the move. And because it's being played on the Wii, you get all the little nuances that come with it. Although it flows quite a bit faster than before, you don't feel like you're in an action game at all. And then there's the sound and graphics... my god is this a beautiful Wii game! I know, right?! It's a survival horror game - it's not supposed to look this great, but it does, and I appreciate all the hard work that has been put into it by Tecmo Grasshopper Studios. There is no fog or static hiding ghosts anymore, the local looks unique from the previous games, textures and patterns on the main characters' clothing and the environment stand out, the look of the ghosts... every inch of it feels like a AAA-title, but plays like a B-Movie! And of course, what horror game would be complete without a haunting background of creepy sounds? As well, some things can only be heard through the Wiimote's speakers, or in addition to them - such as a captured ghost's final scream. There are others, but I won't spoil them ^-^ The only two major drawbacks I've found so far are that the game is only available in Japan, and thus the characters only speak Japanese, and it cost me 75 dollars to buy just a used copy, as of writing. An English patch is also required if you wish to play on a Wii that is not from Japan (as well as if you want to understand what they're saying, though for now it's all subtitles - which is fine by me), but this is easy to do compared to some fixes for other games. Another minor nitpick is that the game does experience moments of slowdown, but only during transition points (such as going through a doorway), and is never continuous for more than a few seconds afterwards. All in all, I would recommend this to anyone who loves survival horror games, and doesn't mind a bit of before-hand setup. You won't regret it!!
