without giving anything away, the sanity effects are by far the scariest thing in the game. i actually start to panic when my sanity meter gets low. its been a long time since a game sucked me in like this. the ambient sound is freaky. ive jumped out of my seat more than once because of the sound alone. this is the kind of horror i dig. resident evil was cool, but it didnt really scare me.

of the next gen consoles, i have only the gc (unless you count the dc), and im actually quite pleased with my purchase so far, given some of the stuff thats out now, and what will be coming out. gauntlet dark legacy, super monkey ball, ssbm, pikmin, ssx tricky, lost kingdoms, eternal darkness, spider-man, mario sunshine, zelda, metroid prime, resident evil. my faith in nintendo is restored. i know some of those are cross-platform, but like i said, i only have a gc currently. im gonna pick up a ps2 one of these days, and i might get an xbox mostly because i want to play jetset radio future and world series baseball 2k3.
