Fright Simulators, "Sensation of Fear" in Japan and "Haunted House Simulators" in America, are a different take on survival horror gaming. Commentators on such a fright simulator, JU-ON: The Grudge - the first on the Wii - say that such games rely on true horror rather than simple power struggles and fights with creatures.

MicroBot review
MicroBot is a fascinating game from the interestingly-named Naked Sky Entertainment, available for download from PlayStation Network and XBOX Live Arcade. The first thing that grabbed me was that a bulk of it takes place within the human blood stream.

Dead Nation review
Thursday 6 January 2011
Does anybody remember this game?
Every now-and-then I'm baffled by the fact that nobody else remembers the game Excalibur 2555AD! It's true that I didn't remember anything about the plot (looked it up; Merlin's niece goes to the future? RLY?) but walking down dark brick corridors while red-glowy-eyed skeletons launch themselves at me and there's lava dotted around places has always stuck with me for whatever reason!
