What are you playing?

[Dark Jaguar]

Oh, as I've said in other threads, it's a simple fact that P.T. was built to require the entire INTERNET to solve the final puzzle. Originally, everyone thought it was just some indie title (going by Strong Bad definition of "indie", meaning some kid's rich dad payed oodles for it). It wasn't until someone randomly stumbled upon the ending (which, as of now, is still the "official" way to beat it, randomly get 3 baby laughs), that they realized it was actually a Hideo Kojima thing, and Silent Hill at that. There's LOTS of hints that the whole internet needed to research, and frankly it's still not clear exactly what those hints are telling you to do in that last puzzle. One thing, you actually do press buttons, just not many. There's a point where you need to use the X button (clearly labelled) and many points where you need to use R3 to zoom in (frankly, with such little button use, I'd have preferred a shoulder button for zoom, as R3 is such a bothersome thing to hold in).

I'm actually wondering if the final product can live up to the "teaser" (which they've officially stated has nothing to do with the plot of the game it's teasing). Everything the teaser does is on such a minimalist level, and a "full game" will have a lot of trouble being more terrifying than what they pulled off in the teaser. Every thing they do with the shadows and tricking your expectations and all the nuanced hints at the background story behind what's going on, it's brilliant, but how well could it work in a full city?
