The Japanese game industry has its audience covered on both ends with the titles coming out August 7 in the country, and Japan's Weekly Famitsu magazine took a close look at the bigger titles. First up was Fatal Frame 4 for the Wii, known as Zero: Tsukihami no Kamen over there. The latest in the series of nightmarish camera-enthusiast adventures did pretty well in the reviews, scoring a total of 34 out of 40 points and earning a Gold reward. The universal verdict was that while the game's nothing terribly new, it's still a rewarding experience. "There are no revolutionary changes; it's just a well-made product," one reviewer wrote. "The fighting is difficult, but fighting in the point-blank ranges that you do is still fun in the end...if scary."

    Eh, Famitsu's scores suck. This game deserves at least a 36.

        Famitsu does a pretty crappy job with reviews, to be perfectly honest. I've seen a lot of games with 38+ for no reason.

    Wow, I was expecting somewhere in the 50's with all the hype Gothic Girl gave it.

      Famitsu only rates out of 40.
