Wii : Cursed Mountain

Yay! A grown up game for the Wii. I'm tired of all the nicey-nicey titles released for the Wii. I know it's more family oriented, but they shouldn't ignore the entire genre of horror gaming. I really enjoyed "Resident Evil 4" for the Wii. The difficulty was on point, the graphics were great and the experience was just scary enough that I would scream out loud occasionally. The publisher/developer Deep Silver is releasing "Cursed Mountain" next year and according to IGN
the game is going to make use of the Wii Controls in an innovative way. Which is what every game for the Wii claims. Here is what the article stated:
"Seifert also elaborated on the game controls. "Controlling the character in the physical world is straight forward. In certain situations we utilize motion sensing for climbing, balancing, chases etc.," he said. "But when you enter the Bardo, the shadow world, you sense the enemies with the IR pointer and you use praying and fighting gestures to defeat the evil sprits. Depending on the difficulty of your opponents you will fight with simpler or more complex gestures and with one or two hands." I am intrigued, but only gameplay will tell if they have succeeded.
