Surely I can’t have been the only who, hearing that a downloadable survival horror game called Hydrophobia has been announced for later in the year, immediately assumed that it was a gritty reboot of Paperboy that followed the harrowing tale of a young cyclist bitten by an improperly restrained Rottweiler and his subsequent descent into rabies-induced madness? I mean, that’s the first thing that springs to mind, right?
After all, as we all know, the fear of water is called aquaphobia, so if the game was about scary things happening in water, they’d have called it that.
