While experimenting with these flowers in class, a dangerous substance is discovered that induces strange but vivid dreams. But a handful of students find out that there is more to the flowers than anyone could have expected; when the seeds finally germinate, a bad trip suddenly turns into a horrible reality...

  1. I recommend this title for those seeking a good co-op title for the Wii that doesn’t involve two plumbers. If you're still not sure on whether or not to pick this title up, then I would hold off until it drops to the $20 dollar mark.

    A surprisingly good game for about thirty bucks. It's generally worth it for some fun co-op, great atmosphere and really beautiful music.
  3. A poorly-executed horror game with a lot of control and design issues. It’s a rather painful game to play, and fails to provide any real scares. We recommend playing Resident Evil 4 again before spending the time and money on this.
  4. This survival horror sequel is clumsy and frustrating and not suspenseful in the least.

  1. Best game series EVER. Instead of surviving the horrors of zombies and monsters as typical police or war veterans, you play as un experienced students who need to survive the horrors of Fallcreak. Great story, great graphics and great fun factor. Highly recommend it. Expand
  2. This isn't a bad game by any stretch. Really as far as Wii games go it's kind of nice to see a more adult oriented game. The issues are that the cameras are kind of a pain in the ass to get aimed in the right directions and the save points get to be ridicules at times. Overall I have really enjoyed playing the game and would recommend it if you can pick it up for 20 bucks or less. Expand
