I'm not sure if I'd like this game as I haven't played many horror games - sounds interesting mind. A Resident Evil/Silent Hill sort of thing in a hospital with mysteries?

I'm not sure how a 1st person shooter could work on the DS though.

"Dementium: The Ward is a mature themed first-person shooter/survival horror game telling the tale of a man awakening to find himself in a mysterious, derelict hospital, apparently frozen in time. Confronted by the deadly, grotesque surgical experiments that roam the halls and a series of challenging puzzles, he must face his deepest fears in order to unlock the mysteries of the hospital and escape with his life.

Dementium is a completely new experience on the Nintendo DS, pushing the platform to its limits with full 3D visuals and bone-chilling audio. It also challenges the player to ask questions, thinking beyond the surface of the in-game surroundings. For those who survive the terrors of the Ward, a shocking conclusion awaits!"

Originally, I thought it'd have been a Psych ward and you'd have to figure out a way to get out without going crazy. Nothing bone-chilling, just being confronted by people who see life through a cracked lens.

You know, instead of every single fucking horror game we've gotten in the past decade.

Dementium hardly pushes the DS to its limits. But it's still a decent action game.

I was quite scared up until I encountered the first enemy, at which point the mood was ruined and it turned into nothing more than another action game with dim lighting.

That doesnt sound good :( I like that idea you had about "figuring a way to get out without going crazy".
According to that link, only the UK/EU version is uncut, maybe the US edition was censored.

Also known as Resident Evil 4 syndrome

although to be fair Re4 was still kind of scary until the 1/4th way point.

Seems like you guys have played it. What's the "shocking conclusion" at the end?

---

Can that be put in spoiler tags? ;) I havent played it, just wondered what you guys' opinion was.

Lets just say the ending is disappointing and involves McNuggets.
Yeah, i don't think the game pushed the DS to it's limits. The game with the best graphics on the DS would be Chibi-Robo.
