Digital Celluloid: Playstation brings teen horror home: Until Dawn (PS3)

I love horror video games. It’s about all that I play. And even tough I love Resident Evil and Silent Hill, it would be nice to have more of a selection. It looks like Play Station has answered my prayers with their new title, Until Dawn. Check out the first trailer below, whatcha think?

One night, you and seven other teenagers are on a remote mountain on the anniversary of your friend’s mysterious death. The power’s out, there’s no phone reception and you’re trying to get the hot cheerleader to notice you. What could possibly go wrong?

Per the Supermassive website:

Its teen horror so obviously it’s isolated, the power’s out and the phones don’t work! You’ll play through the story as multiple characters, sometimes with a friend and sometimes on your own to discover who it is that’s intent on killing off you and your friends. It’s up to you how you play, so we don’t know how your story will go or who’ll be there with you at the end.
To play the game you’ll use the PS Move controller in a totally natural way. It’ll act as your flashlight, guiding your way through the darkness, or when you want to use something the controller will intuitively map your actions in the real world to those of your character’s hand in the game world.
It’s looking pretty good so far. I’m not sure about the Move=Exclusive controller but I’m down to give it a shot.
