A lackluster showing at E3, coupled with the sad fact that there aren't a whole lot of titles to get excited over for the rest of 2008 have left me wondering if the Wii was heading towards the one-and-done gimmick that it's been accused of being before.
While the Strong Bad episodes will keep my cravings down for a bit, I was left wanting a title that I could truly be excited about from announcement to release, and beyond of course. Fortunately, Cursed Mountain is willing to help me out.
When the game was originally announced a few weeks back, it caught my eye as a game that treaded into some unfamiliar territory. Not only that, but it's the first game for the Wii that looks to blow away its player graphically."

There’s a polar vortex sweeping across the country, The Day After Tomorrow style, and unless you’re brave enough to risk instantly freezing as soon as you step outside — like those poor helicopter pilots, they will be missed — the only escape is through video games. Or Dennis Quaid. Since we’re in for a deep freeze, with most of the country already enduring ridiculously low temperatures, I thought I’d come up with a list of horror games we can all enjoy.
"the only escape is through video games. Or Dennis Quaid" lol
I haven't played Dead Space 3, I thought about renting it, but I didn't like DS2 very much, absolutely LOVED DS1, i've heard many times DS3 is even worser sequel
Starting a horror games list by mentioning Dead Space 3.. it's enough to make horror fans weep.
Tom Towers and Phil Fog return to their Big Show format, this time devoting an entire show to survival horror!
Rob Lowzak from Power Level Marketing drops by to drop knowledge about the history of horror. Rob is an expert on the genre and a regular speaker at Spooky Empire's Ultimate Horror Weekend, formerly known as Screamfest.
Gaming's unique take on horror bears mentioning, and so too does the political history of Rule of Rose.
All of the above comes together with Game Under's regular impressions, but this time with a horror twist: Left 4 Dead 2, Deadly Premonition: Director's Cut, Cursed Mountain and Alan Wake.
The scariest night of the year is now only two days away, a horrifying evening when strange children knock at the door and refuse to leave without a toll of sweets and candy. It's also the time of year when we willingly scare ourselves witless by playing frightening video games.
To finish off a week-long series of fond Wii remembrances, Nintendo Life wants to highlight some titles from the system's back-catalogue that are perfect for this time of year. It suggests turning out the lights, basking in the tiny blue glow of the Wii power switch and trying these titles this Halloween.
" Cursed Mountain; however, promises to push the Wii to its absolute limits "
You have not seen anything and yet you are celebrating.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
But what the HELL IS IT?!
For all we know, it's Grizzly Adams RAPING a polar bear!
This should be intresting, can't wait for a hands on.
"When the game was originally announced a few weeks back, it caught my eye as a game that treaded into some unfamiliar territory. Not only that, but it's the first game for the Wii that looks to blow away its player graphically."
How much of the game has this person seen? AUGH.
Also, The Conduit? Moron.
Hopefully the "casual gamers" wil pick these games up to get more developers on this long overdue bandwagon.
