Tecmo and Nintendo have at least revealed the story behind Fatal Frame IV (aka Fatal Frame Zero) which will debut for the first time ever on a Nintendo platform this July.  The story is based around a young girl who was kidnapped when she was young, and rescued by a detective.  Several years later 2 of 5 people involved in the kidnapping incident mysteriously die.  You must return to the clouded moon island in which the kidnapping took place and unravel the mystery behind the current happenings. There will be multiple settings to explore, including a deserted house and a decaying hospital, in which you will need to solve puzzles in order to unravel the mysterious happenings and history of the island, and eventually the truth about the kidnapping of your youth.

Paralyzed Man Takes A Walk In Virtual World Ok, so I love reading about these kinds of things that make science fiction into science fact over time. I know I've had other stories about similar things, but I found yet another one that I thought god to share with you.

Mainly just the data streams that are used for input and such, but still data. He merely thought about walking and was able to make an avatar in Second Life walk around the virtual world.
