''Alone In The Dark'' And ''Silent Hill'' Are My Favorite Horror Games And ''Grudge'' For Nintendo Wii

I love watching people play survival horror games and stuff. Wayyy too nervous to play it myself though. I used to be scared of that first encounter with a zombie scene in the first resident evil game for the ps one when I was small. Really got to me as a kid when it turned around with that bloody mouth. -shiver-
There's this one game called the Haunting Grounds, I believe, where you play this girl and you have to run around looking for an escape while also hiding under beds and stuff from this huge guy who chases you. It would definitely make me real antsy if I tried to playing it haha

You have to play Dark Corners of the Earth. Not so new, but it's the best HP Lovecraft based game and it's VEEERY scary

Amnesia: The Dark Descent (or smth like that)

Creeps me out every time I play it

I still remember the first time a dog jumped through the window in the original Resident Evil. That moment was a game changer. I recently picked up Dead Space 1 & 2 but have yet to get to them thanks to my backlog. They may have just jumped up a few spots thanks to everyone's input.

Someone must have already said, but Resident Evil 4 is now on all of the current gen consoles. It's less scary than previous versions,but infinitely more fun.

Dead Space 1 and 2 are both fantastic, and are best played by yourself and/or in the dark. Silent Hill 2 and 3 are also both fantastic horror games.

There're very few games that can make me nervous while playing, let alone scare me. The only game ever to put me really nervous, and even scare me, is Clive Barker's Undying. That game is a gem, sadly no much known. If any of you haven't played it, you should. It's really fun, the atmosphere is fantastic and creepy (at least for the most part), and the story is top-notch.

Second to that, the Silent Hill series is as you all know one of the best atmosphere creators. There're others too, Fatal Frame series (especially the 2nd, Crimson Butterflies, by far the best one), Clocktower 3. Even Doom 3 can be scary for some people.
Resident Evil 4 is not scary but a great game indeed, as is Resident Evil 5 (altough even less scarier than it's predecessor).

While not being a great game in terms of controls and gameplay, the original Clocktower was pretty creepy and suspenseful. The first time I played the first Resident Evil game was a great experience, too.

^This.

Also, Sanitarium, another older point & click adventure game. But probably the scariest game I ever played was Dark Fall, a Myst-like ghost story by an indie game designer set in a closed-down UK train station hotel. That game made the hair on my arms stand up.

The first three Silent Hill games are great. Even in its old form, Silent Hill 1 can still give me nightmares and surprise me, and I've played it plenty of times.

I recently downloaded the game during that halloween sale and I'm stuck at the water part too. It really is stressful! I was showing it to my friends and they were like F*ck that too scary and the controls are confusing. We're too used to playing Resident Evil on the Wii...ahahah I wish we had a Gun in Amnesia, the game would be a lot easier.
