GameRecoil -> Cursed Mountain -> Cursed Mountain Engine is Pretty

  Now that there is a good Cursed Mountain trailer out...there is something to be said for it.

  The singular standout thing that I noticed from this new Cursed Mountain trailer is that the graphics look damn good. I really got to hand it to Deep Silver and Nintendo... this is going to be one sexy beast of a game on the surface.

  The "Athena" game engine used for Cursed Mountain is doing wonders for the Wii title. The engine includes HDR-Rendering, shader simulations, an ultra-fast particle system, soft particles, depth of field, motion blur, dynamic soft shadows, spherical harmonics lighting, as well as a high performance level-of-detail and streaming system.

  If more titles can jump in the "make the Wii look good" bandwagon, more serious gamers can really latch on to the Wii. As for the story behind the pretty, snow-filled trailer:

  The storyline revolves around a very high mountain, Buddhist monks, a half-dead brother, ghosts, villains with pointy hats and snow.
