I'm aware I'm 9 years late on this one but I spent my vacation away from Seattle and in the midwest. The upside to this was that the game stores were not picked clean and I managed to find the first 3 Fatal Frame games, complete with boxes and manuals for $30 each which seemed like what they generally go for.
Oh my god. I cowered on the couch like a little girl. Very quickly did I forget that the characters were maybe 600 polys and the textures blurry or of solid colors. The game is just freaky.
Working through the first game, I have found that one of the non-boss enemies scares me the most, known as Broken Neck:
I'm not done with the game yet, but I've had moments that are equivalent to dog-jumps-through-hallway-window. So if you have any comments please avoid end of game spoilers.
Anyone else here picked this game up?

I started out with fatal frame 2 though, and got the other ones later, that game scared the shit out of me.
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??!
It is a very good series. If you like those, check out Clock Tower, Haunting Ground, Kuon and a few others. There is this one that takes place on a subway.. can't remember the name. But there are TONS of Japanese horror games. There are a few good PC ones out there. If you are PC only, just go out and get a PS2 for $30 and all 3 games for another $40, as most of the good games are on console.
And in all honesty, I didn't have to pay for FF but they were for a friend who reimbursed me ^_^
Check out galerians, for ps1.
In short its a screwed game about a kid that has to inject himself with drugs constantly to use mind powers to fight cyborgs.
now the latest fatal frame
game sells sex appeal more than the scary ghost itself.
yes the girl is cute but thats not the reason why i buy fatal frame ....
fatal frame 1 is the best
fatal frame 1: lonely highschool girl
fatal frame 2: lonely highschool girl twins
fatal frame 3: two adult women?
fatal frame 4: I'm guessing a lonely highschool girl there too.
maybe the fist game allow you play as a dude a little bit.
I made a big mistake when bought this fist game
thinkin this game was same like resident evil, or
any survival horror i had play before.
so i played in my room , as light off alone .....
i thought that i played as tough police men holding shotgun shooting zombies ...
i was wrong .......
Freak out of the century at around 1:40
