Fatal Frame 3 is horror at its best, minus any cheap scares. It does an outstanding job of creeping you out while spinning a deep and distressing story that will get under your skin.

A supremely worthy successor to the most-frightening throne.

The actual story is as sad as it is malevolent. [Jan 2006, p.88]

Fatal Frame III really ties the entire series together and provides a good and complex plot with plenty of scares and frantic moments.

A fantastic game; you probably won't play a scarier title in the survival horror genre. And if you can forgive the minor niggles you're in for a wholesome and character building experience.

An appealing game for the 13 or so hours that it lasts. The storyline and atmosphere is perfect and the gameplay is solid for the most part.

I had a great time with Fatal Frame III despite the aging controls and unoriginal gameplay.

I loved playing the game--it’s scary as hell. The graphics, gameplay, presentation, and sound are decent and they work very well together.

A quality title that doesn't necessarily stray from the proven groundwork laid down by its predecessors, but still manages to give you a good scare.

A unique approach to the genre, the series proves that an endless supply of undead to fight isn’t always scarier than an empty hallway in a deserted mansion.
