Dead Space. Holy Hell. I turned off the PS3 as soon as I started getting into the darkest parts of the ship. Thank God it was a demo. Dead Space is just so jumpy that it'll scare you every time you play it.
Oh dude I love the one about the comet's curse or something. It's the old one for the computer... Too bad I can't get the controls... Anyone wanna fill me in on them? EDIT: Just remembered the name of the game was Call of Cthulhu: Shadow of the Comet for the DOS computer. And I can't find a control list ANYWHERE
I love the demo that I have... so much fun... It's probably a good thing that you quit when you did... the ending is rediculous... You get your limbs torn off then either ripped in half or decapitated... It was so cool.
Hahaha, yeah the game actually put me in a bad way for a bit. Haven't touched it since, but definitely one of the best games of all time. I've played and beaten silent hill 1,2, and 3 and 2 was by far the most demented...
You forgot the Zero series; especially Zero:Tsukihami no Kamen, which is known as Fatal Frame IV: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse in English, one of the most successful survival horror games ever created besides Resident Evil. It's even scarier than the original Resident Evil series.
i'm pretty sure the very first response in this thread mentions the fatal frame series lol. and yeah, NoA are complete ****ups. i'm really happy that the one fatal frame they decide to deny us is the one suda51 is involved in. good job assholes.
I remember first playing Silent Hill 3 and having the crap scared out of me from that first "dream" level in the amusement park. I started up the game and then had to turn the TV off for a while before I worked up the spine to play. I eventually did, and it continued to scare the hell outta me. Silent Hill 1 was good too, but the graphics kind of took a little away. Though I'm sure if I ahd played it when it was considered top notch, it would have been equally as scary. That said, I still have never beaten Silent Hill 2. I'm not sure if I get bored or scared, could be either really. But I get to the apartment part and I start getting freaked. As for Resident Evil, I've only played 2 and 4, and didn't find them all that terrifying. Only the cheap sort of scares where things jump out at you, not like the Silent Hill scares where there is basically nothing there, but you keep hearing things. I love scary movies, but games take it to another level, I can't take it, too much of a frady cat.
No it's not. I've seen plenty of Fatal Frame games when I go to gamestop or pretty much any game store. I've been meaning to play this series too, just never got around to it. Looks insanely scary since the only way you can kill them is by going right up to them with the camera and there's no weapons or anything as far as I can tell. That's weird, I'm the complete opposite. I can play all the scary games you can dish out, but I can't watch a single horror movie. Idk why since the games are so much scarier since you are the person in the middle of all of it, and they really suck you in, especially ones like Clock Tower and Doom 3.
I was replying to this quote, the latest Fatal Frame is Japan only. I already mentioned the first 3 Fatal Frames in the first reply to this thread.
Oh I see didn't see your post. I didn't know the fourth is Japan only; just wiki-ed it and apparently they canceled the release for America and Europe, which is a shame. Another scary title is Call of Cthulhu in case anyone didn't mention it, based on the novel. It's highly realistic to the fact there are no onscreen indicators or HUDs at all, and the damage system is done perfectly (taking damage on various parts of body will cause blurred vision, crippled leg and slowed movement, less accuracy, etc).
Talking about it, I might get this game. I've seen a few scenes from it and it looked cool, but I like where it's goin with the no hud or anything. Anyone play the old one though, like Shadow of the Comet (which was the first one). In fact, you can get it for free from abandonia since it is, in fact, abandonware (abandonware ftw).
I checked and it's not on abandonia, they do have the 1993 version however. This version I was talking about is in full 3D (graphics aren't that bad either) and made at least after 2000. I don't think it's shareware/freeware/abandonware yet, just not that popular anymore since people mostly go for action games with no storyline these days.

Yeah I know the game you're talking about. I might get it for the Xbox, I hate having to go through the whole is my computer good enough process of getting PC games. But before I was just asking about Shadow of the Comet, not Dark Corners of the Earth.
