cursed mountain sounds supercool

I just happened across a survival horror Wii exclusive game coming out at the end of August that sounds totally awesome! It's called Cursed Mountain and it's set in 1980, telling the story of mountaineer Eric Simmons, whose brother is lost on a fictional mountain in the Himalayas after attempting to ascend without making a ritual sacrifice. The mountain is populated with spirits of the dead which try to hinder Eric's passage. Being a Wii exclusive, all the controls will be motion-based and may also use other aspects of the Wii controls like the built-in speaker in the Wiimote. The graphics and animation style of this game look stunning and beautiful and I bet it will be pretty scary as well if they can pull off the lonely and haunting ambience of a snowy mountain crawling with ghosts. Learn more from IGN's Cursed Mountain preview and check out some screenshots thanks to GoNintendo.com. I will definitely be picking this one up for sure - you have to support the survival horror efforts on the Wii if you're a genre fan!
