Amazon.co.uk Review
With a couple of exceptions, the PlayStation2 has been starved for quality survival horror games. Thank goodness then for the arrival of Fatal Frame, with its mix of Japanese mythology, atmospheric graphics, and freaky sound effects. The game tells the tale of a young girl searching for her missing brother in a cursed mansion--all fairly straightforward stuff. Fans of the genre will feel right at home as the backstory is quickly filled out, allowing the process of ghost hunting to begin--and unlike the comic lunacy of the GameCube's Luigi's Mansion, the spooks and specters here are of a very adult nature. Screaming and moaning accompany the arrival of the ghosts, and they don't shut up until they're "killed"--an act that requires a camera. Fatal Frame eschews pistols and shotguns in favor of a celluloid-death approach, which makes sense given the fact that the opposition are well beyond the living to begin with. In camera mode, the heroine's faithful Box Brownie pops up in a first-person style and it's necessary to keep the ghoul within the focusing reticule in order to drain maximum power from it. It sounds a little lame, but in practice it works well and is an effective way of explaining just how to "shoot" ghosts. The plot development is nicely done, and there are a host of puzzles to solve that are well balanced and never get too tough, but it's the graphics and sound work that really make Fatal Frame special. Cutscenes are rendered in a variety of styles designed to increase the tension, and the sparse soundtrack works wonders when it kicks in. While it's not the strongest title in the PS2's gaming arsenal, it'll certainly keep survival horror fans busy until the next installment of Silent Hill rolls around--remember, though, it's best played with the sound up loud, in the dark, on your own... --Chris Russell

 Fatal frame review December 24, 2008
Joshua Howard Gilberto (USA)
If you like scary games, then you are going to love the fatal frame series. With erie sounds and vengful ghosts hiding in every cooridor, this game is sure to keep you on your feet, and screaming for more. In the game you are looking for your recently disappeared brother, and when you find only an antique camera left behind by your late mother, many questions lay waiting to be answered. The fear in the game is amplified due to the battle system FORCING you to get face to face with chilling specters and horrifying tourtured souls. And with the ability to upgrade your camera, this game adds an extra insentive to take the best shots possibly of your ghostly rivals. Overall i give this game a 4/5
 don't play by yourself November 23, 2008
lexi (Indianapolis, IN United States)
first of i own an assortment of games and i must say that this game really takes the cake...from the very beginning it freaks you out. and its hard to decided whether to quit cuz its scary or if curiousity will get the best of you and you'll wanna keep playing. the thing is don't hang out in one spot too long or random ghosts can attack you as the game progresses. even when you backtrack. i found out the hard way and got too comfortable, used to most games when you backtrack that nothing else new is going to be in the room but boy did i find out! the gameplay is simple but it gets complex when your watching for ghosts and if you listen closely you can hear things that they are trying to tell you and sometimes warn you. one ghost attacked me and the hold time he kept saying forgive me. it can be really freaky. i haven't finished it yet but so far its been quite a ride

Melody's Zombie (Racoon City,USA)
Fatal FrameI thought I had played some scary survival horror games in the past(resident evil,The suffering,silent hill)but that was before Fatal Frame. Play this game in the dark ,with the sound turned up,and you will be jumpy all night.This is a highly recommended game for any fan of survival horror games. If you are looking for a different type of game to play then try this game.
