Hungry Ghost (PS2)

[James]

Has anyone heard anything about this game? I mean, it looks like it's a Japan only release and it doesn't really have anything outside of a box art in terms of information on the title. Has anyone heard ANYTHING about it by any chance?

Hungry Ghosts is aiming for freedom of choice, letting you make decisions in the world of death, which is filled with hatred, greed, and deceit.
Genre: Horror Action Adventure
Release Date: Jul 31, 2003 (JP)
DVDFull NTSC/J

O.O Interesting, a pick what you want survival horror adventure?
Sometimes the good games are Jap only, take Million Monkeys & Tenchu Shinobi Hyakusen for examples.

rated 18, so it could be like silent hill scary

[FeurMensch]

I'll get my bro to import it. Well I'll try to get him to...

[A-J]

the premise sounds a little like baroque, where death plays a part in the game.

...where death plays a part in the game...

Yeah, but death plays a bit part in GTA too... can you be a bit more specific?

[Umon Daisuke]

That's quite an old game.. 2003 or 2004 IIRC. The gameplay is similar to King's Field as I remember and it's fully Japanese (both audio and text.. and there's lots of text)

[Darkmoon]

I assume by death they mean Death, as a person (like the Discworld) rather than, 'I just went gansta on your ass till death, bitch,' like GTA.

[nemesis_lover]

well at the end of the day i'd rather clock tower 2 came to pal then this

[Helegad]

Oh okay. So Grim Reaper, then. It's all good now
