I've just started Dead Space again having realised I own it on Origin and so teore myself away from the PS4. Even 12 years it on it still scares the life out of me. Tense, atmospheric and jumpy, if a little bit clunky in game play.
Got me thinking what other "scary games there were/are". Obviously Resident Evil and the dog through the window stands out. Also, I played Outlast after it was free on PS+ a few years ago. Jesus, that was so intense only lasted half an hour or so!
Any others? I never played Silent Hill so couldn't comment on that...

I remember playing Aliens vs Predator many years ago on pc with headphones on and lights of. A one point I knew I was going be attacked motion detectors going off with the unmistakable ping it’s dark and steamy in the area I was moving through but I only had 30 rounds left for my rifle. I turned a corner and an alien jumped at me I shit myself loosed if the full clip and fell of my chair totally immersed in the experience. When I composed myself I realised it was a pipe that had fell from the ceiling what looked like a shiny alien head, I then turned the next corner got impailed by an alien turned of the pc and went bed 🖕. For new games alien isolation is a very immersive and scary experience especially with lights off and headphones on, my car nearly got launched through the tv when it jumped on me playing that once.

I'll never forget settling in to play the first Resident Evil on the PS1, was on launch day too so no spoilers had been forthcoming. Lights off, sound up and then it happened - I got to the L-shaped corridor. Those fucking dogs jumping through the window, I not only jumped out of my fucking skin but I swear I left my chair by a good few inches.

Eternal Darkness on the Gamecube is pretty weird. It plays with your mind by making it look like there's something wrong with the TV and all sorts of odd things.

The PT teaser on PS4 was brilliant. Such a shame Konami canned it off.
There is a remake of it on PC using Unreal or Unity I think. Looks great.

Just installing dead space 2 - any good?
Must agree with the post above re the old AvP - very tense!

Just bought Generation Zero, it's on sale on Steam for £12 with the DLC, and some of those fucking robots are creepy as fuck when they're on to you. The whole setting is pretty creepy too, a deserted Swedish archipelago in the 80s with eerie mist shrouded forests.

Resi Biohazard on PSVR makes me scream like a little girl, so much so that the wife says I can’t play it because I scare the dogs.

I did that on PT playable demo On Resi on psvr, I know something is going to happen and I just stand there for ages and wont move 😂😂 Keep buying all these horror games and crapping myself playing them. |

Same. I remember on first play through it took me about 10 minutes after the walk through the woods to even pluck up to courage to go into the house. Then I stood in the little room just listening to the footsteps above thinking "Nah". Furthest I got was climbing those ladders into the basement then bottled it and played normally.  . Currently on my second play through of the RE2 re-master, great game! |

Currently on my second play through of the RE2 re-master, great game! I'm playing Man of Medan at the moment, keep putting it on at stupid oclock, playing in the dark all alone but wouldn't have it any other way as makes the game better for me. Will get the new one Little Hope when I get PS5. Absolutely loved Until Dawn. I have inpatient psvr, evil within.. Still not finished either 😂😂 |

Will get the new one Little Hope when I get PS5. Absolutely loved Until Dawn. I have inpatient psvr, evil within.. Still not finished either 😂😂 Never played "Man of Medan", never heard of it in fact. Just had a google and the write up seems pretty decent, might have to invest. Until Dawn is a great game! I was pleasantly surprised to be honest when I bought it as I wasn't expecting much from it, but I really did enjoy it. It did the American Slasher movie thing to a T. Is inpatient from the same developer? I have Evil within as well but like you I never finished it either! I seem to remember getting stuck on a particular part and binning it off and picking it up about a year later, started again and got stuck on the same part again! So onto the shelf it stayed and I've never put it on again since. Only remembered I had it when I saw they had done a second one. I actually completed RE2 last night, so looking for something "New" to play. I was going to do another run through Biohazard as we'd been talking about it, but maybe I'll dust off EW and try for a 3rd time lol! |

InPatient, Man of Medan, Little Hope all by same developer as Until Dawn. Man of Medan, Little Hope and next years release House of Ashes are a Dark Pictures anthology by them. Really enjoying Man of Medan. Cant wait get Little Hope later this month. Infuriating when get stuck in same place, despite redoing from the start. Always remember many years ago (showing my age now) a game called Police Quest 4. I did this from the start 4 or 5 times from and got stuck in the same place everytime...then discovered all I had to do was give a little girl an apple outside the 7/11 and she'd give me information to progress to the next bit. Something so little and so trivial stopped me for years 😂😂 after that completed it in 2 more days. |
