First off, let me say that this genre (survival horror) in general is overlooked by many. Why is this? People are probably scared of the game. That is what makes the genre fun though. If you love psychological thriller type of stuff, then this game is a must. Personally, I don't find this game as scary as it is an all round fun game to play. The insanity effects are cool, and well done. Was playing with my friend today and he thought the game broke when the famous "blue screen of death" appeared on the screen. It was just an example of the insanity effect. Very interesting effects overall. Some range from subtle (ex. bleeding walls) to the obvious (ex. screen appears to have been turned off). This game seemed very similar to "Prince of Persia", as far as the gameplay is concerned. For me, if I'm looking for a scare, I'll go with Resident Evil, but if I'm just looking to have some fun I go with this game. The only thing I don't like this game is it's lack of any surprises. Resident Evil has the shock aspect of horror, while this one plays with your mind. Overall this would be a great game if you're just getting into the survival horror genre. I also recommend the Resident Evil series.

Well, let me say that i saw this game about a bazillion times saying "nah, not my type". Then my friend bought it and played and i was like "WHOA! THAT SOUNDS JUST LIKE LOVECRAFT." I immediatly purchased. One of the best investments i've made. This is no resident evil, this is cosmic horror, one of the coolest genres ever created. From the very beggining you are plunged into a world of pure evil, you must make a stand. This isnt your classic "beat the baddies" scenario. There are no "good guys" except your character at the time. There is a "sanity meter", whenever your character sees a monster (there really is no other word), your sanity drops, you see things, you cant tell whats real and whats insanity. Best video game storyline compettitor right here, as well. Let me tell you, when i beat the game (through all 3 times), my sanity as a person was waaaaaaaay down. I kept seeing 3:33 on the clocks...(shudder), buy the game, live the horror.

As a great fan of the Resident Evil and Silent Hill games, I was a little skeptical when Eternal Darkness came out. However, I was soon hooked in a big way. The story is well thought out and historically based, the graphics are top-notch, the sound is very realistic, and the controls are intuitive. If anyone is familiar with the works of H.P. Lovecraft, this game echoes much of his writings on great primal gods and how they interact with humans. The one disappointment is the length. I would have liked this game to be 2 to 3 times as long as it is. But, it seems all games are not long enough. Replay value is high, as you play with the threedifferent ancient alignments to receive the secret ending.
