"Boo! Feel scared? If not, that’s because real horror is more than just cheap thrills and quick scares. Real horror has to build up atmosphere, raise the tension, and make the player feel uncomfortable and helpless. That’s what indie hit Amnesia: The Dark Descent did when it arrived in September 2010. Amnesia was more than just a fantastic horror game that, for me, overtakes Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly as the scariest game I had ever played. It was a title that opened the notion to gamers that indie developers can create horror just as well, if not better, than any of the big publishing studios, and that is important, because retail horror is going the way of the Dodo. We need these indie developers to live and keep us horror fans scared out of our pants."
Footage from what appears to be a prototype build of Red Barrels' first-person psychological survival horror game, Outlast, has emerged.
This sounds interesting. Red Barrels is teaming up with Lionsgate and renown horror producer Roy Lee to develop a feature film anchored in the rich and horrifying universe of the Outlast series.
It has to be. I hope they learned with Borderlands that PG-13 is not the way if the source material is an M-Rated game.

Very safe list of horror games. I would argue that Amnesia Machine for Pig was not that great. Dark Descent was much a much better game.
Far better games have been released in this genre (Dead Space Remake, Alien Isolation, Alan Wake 2 etc).
I really like this take on the horror genre. Suspense is king here. I hope it sells well so we can get more games like this.
Looking forward to playing this as soon as it drops for PS4!
Also can't wait for The Evil Within!
That is another game I am looking forward to.
