The upcoming issue of Japanese game magazine Famitsu confirms it. Dubbed Siren New Translation, the PLAYSTATION 3 survival horror title is currently 90 percent done and apparently a reworking of the first game. It will go on sale this summer on July 24th, and a demo will be released on April 24th."
Jenny and Allison of the Backward Compatibles play the hugely underrated survival horror game Siren: Blood Curse.
Prepare thumbs to suck and blankets to hide under, people – it’s the top 10 most terrifying characters on PlayStation.
Wtf is mokujin doing on there?
I saw that they picked the armour spider from demons souls, but I would've picked the fat officials and their creepy laugh instead.
"Siren Blood Curse was released in 2008 however it was only released on Disc in Japan, Europe, and Australia. In North America you had to purchase this from the PlayStation Store, unfortunately this game didn’t have much in terms of publicity. I am actually willing to wager that most of you reading this have never heard of Siren Blood Curse."
What's stupid is that I meant to download this game, I just forgot about it with all of the crap going on in my life. I'm a huge fan of Japanese survival/horror like Fatal Frame. My thanks to the author for reminding me about it. I will make a point of downloading it in short order. I do remember loving the demo. :)
Highly underrated. I still think the ps2 version is better. Lack of hd only made it better. They cut out a lot of stuff too. The ps2 version was insanely hard too. The snipers sucked.
Edit. Why the disagrees? I said nothing inflammatory. It was good game, not because it was exclusive.
Man, SCEJ need to add trophy and Move support to this game to help give it some exposure.
It's a very good game. You can get it used (if you can find it) for about £12 these days. It's still rather expensive on PSN
Dear Stealth Disagree'er,
How the hell can you disagree with my previous comment?

£11.50!
PSN it's £20. 20 is a bigger number than 12 which makes the PSN version more expensive than the ones you can get used on disc.
christ!
Atmosphere however was delivered properly. It's just that, THE CONTROLS killed everything there is in this game. That, and the opening... gosh I didn't realize there was a path until I died 100 billion times with the first maniac.
-End statement
i played a demo i believed but it was pretty good felt like re4 and scary as well
This game's more than just good, it is awesome! Best horror game of this gen.
But if you have a slow connection it'll take a while to download the game, it's like 20GB or something.
yeah id have to not touch anything else for the rest of the month as i get only 25 gb usage less i upgrade it but someday i may do it but probably prefer a disc now that i just hear there is in other countrys, oh well
its 9735 mb if i remember correctly,but u can download episode by episode...there are 12 of them (u only need the 1st episode installed to enter the game).
it took me 15 hours to finish the game.Quite scary and pretty good at the same time.
Soundtracks are one of the best i've seen in horror games this gen.After game over,they give u a portable music player app so u can listen to the tracks...good
Amnesia: The Dark Descent,is by far the scariest game available. (system requirements aren't that high and it's cheap on Steam.)
And I have played pretty much everything in the survival horror genre.
When you been caught by the monster.....(shudders) it is the scariest shit ever.
@jony-dols
While I don't get scared by movies or video games, I will agree with you on Amnesia. While it didn't scare me, it is a scary game (if that makes sense) and an awesome one at that. I would strongly recommend the game to anyone with a PC to play it on. It's kind of short, but it is cheap. Strongly recommend Siren too, for that matter.
Amnesia: The Dark Descent is excellent, as is Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth. Those two games deserve to be tried by any fan of horror games (despite how relatively inaccessible they may be to a genre newcomer).
Please would people actually play Amnesia before disagreeing.
Films and Video Games don't scare me, but Amnesia is in a different league...
I got it on disc a few years ago. I live in UK though. It is a very good horror game, well worth playing.
the psn date thing that was released a while ago was right about that siren new translation thing and since it was from SCEE than it will have a demo in the us sometime also. ive nerv played a siren game but from what ive seen i cant wait to play.
I want FS 3....not a remake!!!!!
So that's what the "nt" stood for at the end of the link of the countdown, New Translation
not a huge fan of horror games
but the stealth in FS is very tense, definitley not a sunday morning game
i thought the countdown was for FS3, but hey- this is good too
on a side not, if the PS3 gets any more exclusives for this year announced (which it will), im afraid we'll have to check up on Mart reguarly to see if he's commited the unmentionable
What's that "Prologo"...for me it's not a remake but it's FS 0
