after playing this game for awhile now it has me hooked it keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what will happen next.i think the music might have alot to do with that because its reall creepy.the special effects like the sanity meter are real cool will not say anything about that dont want to spoil it.it has its moments when the game will scare you like resident evil did overall you just want to keep coming back for more to get to the next chapter i think its a must have for thr gamecube
