L4D in a top 10 scariest list? Jesus...

Where's Fatal Frame?

NotAfanBoyy4418d ago

DeadSpace is a good game, but no more scary than Doom 3. No Fatal Frame aka Project Zero?

WishMeWell2594418d ago

Dead space did great. Idk if he was aiming for the first 1-3 or what but resident evil is no where near scary(anymore).
L4D really makes me question your decision making.
Alan Wake i was kinda surprised but ill give it to you.
kinda surprised Slender is on here. I watched a top 10 horror and that was on it, so i watched some videos and people were freaking out so i was interested. Personally, the atmosphere was great but slender man in general...is broken. I found its weak points and took advantage. And once you have advantage over something in game it isnt scary. Have to give the creator credit tho. did it by himself, scared many people AND started a new generation in Horror gaming. Thank you

There are only two games in my life i can say it terrified me. and I love it.
Silent Hill 1...Had to turn off the music. Bro and I took turns playing different parts lol
Resident evil 2...Asked my brother before bed if zombies were real.
Yes I was 7-8 years old but most "horror" games dont do that anymore, because its all about the action

dennett3164418d ago

Left 4 Dead should not really be on that list. I mean, it can get frantic when you're getting swarmed, but it is a full on action title and doesn't really have the atmosphere needed to be a true horror.
Resident Evil I would have on the list, but probably only at number 10 because again, it isn't really all that scary. There's tension galore at times, and the dogs crashing through the windows got me just like it got everyone else, but it really is more of a B movie vibe...especially as the series goes on. Great games, but the horror is pretty mild in truth.
Fatal Frame/Project Zero absolutely deserves a place on the list, that is a game that nails the creepy atmosphere and subtle scares that really send a chill up your spine.
Very nice to see Condemned on the list, a truly underrated horror game. Great atmosphere, combat is visceral and scary and it's a very well paced game.
If Amnesia is on the list, I'd also include Penumbra from the same developers. It's very similar to Amnesia, but no less nerve-jangling.

Matt6664418d ago

Silent Hill should be higher on the list then RE. Furthermore RE should only be on the list if it RE1-CVx, anything after that became an action game and lost all survival horror aspects. Also Silent Hill should only be on there if it SH 1-4, since they where the best SH games.

Dead Space Creator Glen Schofield 'Already Making Calls' About Dead Space 4 Now EA Has New Owners

Could Dead Space return now EA has new owners? That's what Glen Schofield, the creator of the series, is hoping to make a reality.

P_Bomb225d ago

EA already makes so much money on sports and live service. Why not take a fraction of that cash, make a good single player Dead Space? Just do it.

chicken_in_the_corn225d ago

The backlash to a Dead Space 4 will be incredible.

LostPotato225d ago

Why the third game didn't sell that good and ruined the Ip. Let it rest in peace.

Red3f1ned224d ago

Because there's still potential and he's not done telling the story? Just because you get socked in the face really hard doesn't mean you lay down and just take it, especially if you haven't finished what you set out to do.

Michiel1989224d ago

yeah you're only throwing millions in the bin, no biggie.

-Foxtrot224d ago

The point is they really ruined the story where most people just don’t care

Now if they remake DS2 and then redo DS3 as a completely new game, branching the game off into a new timeline then we are golden

Pedantic91224d ago

If Callisto is his idea of a Dead Space game without the supervision of EA, i don't think i'd want to see where he'd take DS4 now that EA aren't the ones in charge. No wonder he's "already" making calls.

spoonard224d ago

Oh, another sportswashed game I will never buy because I don't support the Saudi royalty.

Seraphim224d ago

do you purchase gas? you're supporting Saudi Royalty.

Huey_My_D_Long224d ago

No shit. We can't go without buying gas. People can go without games. There is no ethical consumption in capitalism anyway.
But people can make stands if they like.
No idea why it bothers you, dude isn't even asking others to join in on his boycott

Seraphim223d ago

@Huey - you make many assumptions. I was simply pointing out a fact.
