I've been excited for this game for a long time but reviews (both by sites and persons) have been lackluster. As the game got closer I started to suspect this would be the case. I'm interested because moody, atmospheric, scary things are of huge appeal to my wife, but I get the strong impression that this is nowhere near a 60 dollar game.

I'll give it some time.

Incidentally, how it is this was the only thing coming up recently you're interested in? RDR, MG2, 3DDGH, MNR. This month seems to have been an embarrassment of riches, though different strokes and all that.
