amazing graphics, atmosphere, story, sound design, actually horrifying looking ghosts.. i really loved the vibes. but holy moly is this game unforgiving.

the heals & save points in the 3rd act are non-existent, & theres a mini-boss rush of 5 guys. it was a doozy & took me like 4 hours of attempts until i began to cheese it, snapping pictures quickly instead of waiting for big hits, & walking aaaall the way back to a save point then taking a new picture so i didn't proc any more ghosts. then the final boss i took a total of like 3 pictures & it was over...

that being said i really did enjoy it! i'm also pretty proud of myself for beating it. my friend actually sent me their ps2 copies of 1 & 2 because they couldn't beat them! & everyone said that if i can beat 1, the rest are going to be a piece of cake. i'm excited to dive into the rest of them! the story was so sad.. i'm sure it gets worse lol
