Scariest games to date.

What are the scariest games you've played?

Amnesia, Dead Space 1, maybe Silent Hill, and a small bit of Alan Wake.

I've never gotten scared while playing video games. I know it's not real and unfortunately I can't turn that part of my mind off long enough to be scared.
But I do get surprised often. And I get those "OH SHIT IT'S GONNA GET ME RUN THE FUCK AWAY FUCK!!" moments.
For that, my list is as follows:

F.E.A.R.
Dead Space
Resident Evil Zero
Condemned
Amnesia
Alan Wake(at first)


I'm sure there's more. I have a shitty memory.

Fatal Frame seriously.

Amnesia, nightmare house 2 and SCP-087

The last mentioned is free and you can just google it

Fear 2 and Fear 3 made me jump quite a bit...especially Fear 2!

Fatal Frame and Dead Space 2.

But seriously, Dead Space 2 was the scariest I've ever played. lol

FEAR 2 i had to leave the room and play from outside my door

Silent Hill (DEMONS ARE F***KING SCARY)
Dead Space 2* (Made me Scared sometimes) 360
Dead Space* (The original the Scary beyond HELL one) 360

The Fatal Frame series (they need to rerealese those games)

RE 2

Silent Hill the room.

its funny this thread was made because im bout to play Deadspace 1 is it really that scary??

I feel like any game where you have a weapon empowers the player too much to make it truly scary (ala dead space), unless that weapon is shit then yeah, helplessness really kicks in (ala SIREN which I recommend highly.) Also the fatal frame series, amnesia, and also clocktower.

Lets see, Amnesia was fun, sucks you cant counterattack, but then that would take out the fun.
I wouldnt count this but in MGS2, I didnt get a node and i went to the next section of the screen and since no node=no radar, there was a guard. The volume was pretty high so I jumped and screamed a little and had to pause the game.
!

Any game where you're truly a blubbering pile of whimpering uselessness. Silent Hill 2, Amnesia: The Dark Descent for me. As mentioned above, any "horror" game when you've given means to fight back against nasties usual falls into the unfortunate position of being an action game with occasionally scary bits. Especially FEAR and its sequels, which I find about as scary as Rambo. That is to say, not at all.

Games that have creeped me out? That's another one. But genuine, spine-chilling horror? That's a rarity indeed.

Amnesia: The Dark Decent.

Dead Space (initially, then you realize that it is all scripted).

STALKER, but only when Snorkers and Bloodsuckers are in the equation.

This!

It's almost the same on my lists of scariest games.

Oh wait. Demento/Haunting Ground is also one of the scariest games I played.

Does not apply to FATAL FRAME.

Your weapon is a measly camera...lol

Doom 3 (More of an action game, I know, but it still freaked me the fuck out in some parts.)
Condemned 2 (THAT FUCKING BEAR)
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth (The escape from the inn was tense as hell.)
I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream (More disturbing than scary, but still worth noting.)
F.E.A.R. (The first and the best. Being in the dark about Alma made her scarier than in the later games, IMO.)

Siren: Blood curse is one of those games where the character is just a normal guy at cult ceremony(not a hero), and suddenly HELL breaks lose...I guarantee if any of you play this game you will never want to go to a secret meeting..

Every game in a horror genre is like that...except well maybe Siren or Fatal Frame

Not too many horror games in my gaming lifetime, try to stay away from them but they somehow end up in my stack of games.

FEAR 1 and 2. 3 wasn't too scary...
Dead Space 1 and 2
Siren New Translation
Amnesia
Resident Evil series (The earlier ones)
Fatal Frame series

On a side note, I'm deathly afraid of Xenomorphs. The Alien Alien variety.
