Joystiq Streams: Haunting Ground boards Mid-Summer Terror Train [UPDATE: Relive the stream!]
Horror need not be relegated to the sweet browns and reds of October! Must we wait until fall to get scared stupid like Ernest or all those dupes playing Slender on YouTube? No! Let us delight in the dumb scares of a dark movie theater, redolent with stale popcorn smells. Let us remember the creeping unease as we walked through that ridiculous haunted house at the boardwalk. Let us remember each and every freaky story told with maximum chutzpah around a roaring campfire. Joystiq's Mid-Summer Terror Train, wherein we stream horror games both new and old every day for a week, rolls out of the station at 4PM EST today on Joystiq.com/Twitch. Our first tale of terror is Haunting Ground, a Capcom game that involves hanging out with a dog and running away from a dude who looks like a morbidly obese Toxic Avenger. Join us! Mid-Summer Terror Train streams air all week at 4PM EST on Joystiq.com/Twitch and Twitch.tv/Joystiq. [Images: MobyGames/Mat/Capcom]
PS2 horror game Haunting Ground rated for PS3
Haunting Ground, Capcom's PlayStation 2 horror game, has been rated by the ESRB for the PS3, suggesting an eventual digital re-launch. Haunting Ground's rating remains "M for Murder" – oh, that's "M for Mature," sorry – and contains all the warnings that made the first game so horrifically lovely.Haunting Ground follows Fiona and her dog Hewie as they attempt to escape a haunted castle, solving puzzles and defeating enemies along the way. The game seems poised to launch either as a PS2 Classic or an HD remake; Capcom has yet to verify.
