Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



With Resident Evil going all action, Alone in the Dark sucking balls, and Silent Hill wandering around trying to find its roots the survival horror genre is looking a little worse for wear. The classic franchises have seemingly abandoned us, and thus we must turn our attention to new franchises. Might I suggest Cursed Mountain for the Wii? If the below video and our time spent with the game are any indication, Deep Silver might be putting a new classic of the genre on the map.

The behind the scenes video digs more into the game's lore than its gameplay, but it is plenty clear that even Buddhism can get really scary. The devs seem to have done their research on the subject, and then pushed it into a format that would be entertaining for a survival horror medium. I'm pretty sure most of the stuff going on in the game doesn't have that much to do with actual Buddhism, but it looks creepy none the less. Here's to hoping the gameplay stands up to our hopes and dreams for the game and that it gets some actual support when it comes out.

This game looks really cool. Might actually be one of the few Wii games I pick up this year.

That guy's accent made the video unwatchable, and I'm not even a native English speaker.

Damn son, Buddhism is hardcore. Remind me not to mess with Buddhists.

This game is looking sick. This is on my list of things to pick up this fall/winter for sure.

@Uziwood
His accent wasn't that bad. I understood every word out of his mouth. I have definitely heard way, way worse accents and his language at least was flawless. Maybe its because I deal with primarily non-English speakers at my work that are talking to me in English, many of whom I struggle to understand.
