Gamertell Review: Obscure: The Aftermath for PSP
There aren’t that many horror games on the PSP. There’s Silent Hill: Origins. Manhunt 2 and Undead Knights cound technically be counted as well, though they aren’t really scary. Resident Evil Portable is in development, but we probably won’t be seeing that until sometime in 2010. So, in the meantime, we have to appreciate the few horror games there are on the handheld.

The game is the portable port of Obscure II/Obscure: The Aftermath, which originally appeared on the PC, PS2 and Wii, and the sequel to Obscure, which was a PC, PS2 and Xbox 360 game.
First of all, Obscure: The Aftermath will be released both on UMD and as a digital download from the PlayStation Store when the game comes out September 8, 2009. Second, Playlogic has confirmed that the developers kept in mind the PSP go controls and capabilities when creating the game. Perhaps this means the control scheme was tweaked to take into account the smaller system.
Obscure: The Aftermath is a horror game where six college students, who coincidentally happen to be survivors of the terrifying incident that took place in the original Obscure…
