XSEED shocks us with Ju-On localization announcement

The press release announcing Ju-On: The Grudge offers a few new details about the gameplay. To the dismay of those expecting a third- or first-person survival horror game, XSEED bills Ju-On as a "haunted house simulator," in which players explore scary environments with a pointer-controlled flashlight, driven to "proceed forward even after being frightened and running away from the initial threat." The game includes the ability for a second player to trigger scares using a second Wiimote, causing the other player to "jump and hate you forever."
So if you want your friends to hate you forever, check out Ju-On: The Grudge this October!

XSEED, I really don't care. Where the -hell- is my Fragile? -_-

I like how the second player can do stuff to make the first player pee in their pants.
Looks interesting, and to side with Kia, I am also hoping for Fragile to come over here. I don't care if the gameplay is meh, the story is apparently amazing.

so, is there any gameplay or do you just walk around with a flashlight?

From the screens it appears that you may be able to find keys as well as run out of batteries for your flashlight..... Doesn't do much to peak my interest.

"players explore scary environments with a pointer-controlled flashlight, driven to "proceed forward even after being frightened and running away from the initial threat."
Is that fancy talk for on-rails?

Is this game on-rails?
