Re: Quest for Scares - Horror Games Discussion

Still, Dead Space has too much action to be of any scare value. You can take on the enemies head on. There are a lot of frantic moments though.

Some details for Dead Space 3 have been leaked:

Isaac Clarke's next adventure will apparently unfold on the icy planet of Tau Volantis, bringing the bulk of the game's narrative to a terrestrial environment for the first time (the first Dead Space briefly visited a planet's surface). At some early point, Isaac will crash land on the planet and fight through blizzard-like conditions to a nearby waystation.

He encounters an injured survivor there who informs Isaac that there are others still alive, and that they've left for a nearby facility. One of those characters is Ellie, who you might remember from the first game. Isaac eventually reconnects and then travels with Ellie and Jennifer, a new character, to the top of a mountain for reasons that aren't clear.

Jennifer is described by Siliconera as a "tech type" with plans to reverse engineer the work of the Rosetta research group as she tries to unlock the secrets of a codex. The source also notes that EA is referring to the game's enemies as "the hive mind."

Manhunt, Siren: Blood Curse, Call of Cthulu, Penumbra.
The above games are a must play for anyone who is interested in the horror-survival genre. Especially Siren, it will knock your socks off. Pro tip - Play with your lights off.

I played Penumbra. When it came free with Digit. I think they are the same guys who made Amnesia. I am not sure if the others are available for PC.

^^ Call of Cthulu and Manhunt are available for the PC. Siren though, is not.
And yes, Penumbra is developed by Frictional games, the same guys who made Amnesia.

I played CoC. But I couldn't get past the part where we are in a ship and need to fire on an island. But I cannot see anything on the island. Guides tell that there are three blue (or green, I don't remember) lights that I need to shoot at. So, I am stuck there.

I do not remember either, but youtube can definitely help you. There are plenty of video playthroughs. You'll just have to filter out hte crap in order to get to your part. :)

Dead Space/Doom 3/Resident Evil scares on sound-effect.

play Silent Hill (if u want to really scare yourself).
it has a gripping story & good series.

I have played SH3 & SH:Homecoming.

there is one level of Hotel in Homecoming which scares a lot & the talk with old lady in the hotel is spooky...
also can't forget the encounter with Boogeyman in that...
also watch the Movie Silent Hill

Konami is well-known for survivor-horror

also if u have S60v3 mobile play 7 Days...mind blowing graphics & scary game.

Looks like SCPs are catching up as a popular topic for horror. Another SCP project game has come up, centered around SCP-087 :
