I'm tackling this review from two angles: from the perspective of someone who has played and loved previous versions of the game, and from that of someone completely new to the series. If you've never played Project Zero before, don't worry—I won't leave you guys in the ghost-infested dark. Openstep Installation Directory on this page. Project Zero, known as Fatal Frame in the United States, is a classic haunted house survival horror series that began its ethereal afterlife on the PlayStation 2. Each game features different characters (usually cute, young girls) in different places (often abandoned, derelict buildings), but all focus on the mysterious abilities of the Camera Obscura, a device that allows its users to take photographs of ghosts and other paranormal phenomena.

The first two games had updated Director's Cut versions on the Xbox, and the fourth was a Wii exclusive that never made it out of Japan. Each game plays something like an exploration expedition, and a first person camera simulator kind of akin to Face Raiders whenever you're attacked by something from beyond the grave. Smile, you're on can-dead camera! The latest entry into the series is an updated remake of the second game (also known as Crimson Butterfly). It tells the story of twin sisters Mio and Mayu, who wander into the lost, deserted, and very haunted Minakami Village.

When the girls become separated, Mio must use the Camera and her wits to piece together the grisly story of the village while battling vengeful spirits and searching for her sister. The visual differences from the PS2 version are immediately apparent. The Wii version looks gorgeous running in 16:9 widescreen, with updated character models and completely rebuilt scenery.

There are a few low-res texture maps here and there, but the dilapidated old buildings are as spooky as ever to explore. There's also a kind of grainy old film filter over the camera in the Wii edition, adding to the grungy atmosphere of the village. Check out Mio's nice. Instead of a series of fixed camera angles from third-person, the game now has an over-the-shoulder first-person perspective that follows you around, a view much more immersive than the original version’s. One particular element from the fourth game carries over very well in Project Zero 2: picking up every item has become a nerve-wracking game of chance. You slowly reach your hand out to retrieve the object, with a randomized chance of a ghostly arm appearing out of nowhere to grab at you.

You also have the new option to warily peek through windows and other small gaps in the scenery in case a nasty ghastly is waiting to pounce just out of sight. Along with the new perspective, the game features a different control scheme that takes some getting used to. Movement is straightforward, using the analog stick to run, back up, or turn. Holding the Z button on the Nunchuk makes you run, and a quick shake of either the Nunchuck or the Wii Remote does a quick 180-degree turn in the corresponding direction. It's when you're using the Camera Obscura that things get technical. Pressing B whips out the camera, and while looking through the lens, tilting the Wii Remote up or down aims high or low.
