    Doom 3 scared me several times like no game did before. Maybe AvP 1 some time ago, but that is history. Doom 3 and FEAR rules at the feeling they give tot the player

    Resident Evil 4 and Doom 3 are the kickass titles, they both made you scramble for ammunition and everything you find is useful, even the crappal Pistols! Everything was scarce...maybe RE4 wasn't exactly as terrifying, but it made your mind spin..that is, if you though you still HAD a mind...

    All of these games are great. I wish there were more Survival Horror type games. I love playing them.

    All are all great games to play around Halloween. I have always been a Resident Evil fan, and I am starting to like Silent Hill as well. I really wanna try SH Homecoming and Dead Space, FEAR looks cool too! As far as the video goes it was kinda weak, and the list was only ok. RE 3, and Code Veronica could Have been on here, as well as SH 1 and 3, and Mabey Fatal Frame.

    UH, that is the MOST un-scary part of STALKER. wheres the Underground?

    This actually a solid list of horror games. I would personally only make a few changes to it. The first would be to add the Fatal Frame series. Although I have never played it the series looks very frightening. I would also include the year the game was originally released. I personally think the scariest games on this list is Condemned Criminal Origins and Resident Evil 4.

    Honestly i like games phycological horror games cuhz it gets you into the game & its freakin scary but makes you want more of it, & i have to say bioshock wasnt as much of a scary game to me though but it was a good game & the thing omg the old school movie was tight wish they would remake it !!

    @racoonrage condemned in my opinion, its more brutal and realistic.

  • DeathByControl

    Posted Aug 1, 2009 9:41 am GMT

    resident evil couldve been shown in half of those catagories...

  • racoonrage

    Posted Jul 31, 2009 9:52 pm GMT

    whats scarier condemned or doom 3

  • sophospeare

    Posted Jul 30, 2009 11:44 am GMT

    @those that are mad they didn't show the scary scenes

    While I do agree they could have picked scarier scenes for some of the games than they did, the whole idea is to show you scary games you might not have played. Why would you want to give away some of the scary moments before you play it?

  • hotsunpayam

    Posted Jul 26, 2009 4:46 am GMT

    I had played all of them.
    That time Undying was the best game.
    But all of them are good

    I know some of those are scary, but they didn't make any look scary at all.

  • xbox360555

    None of this was scary

  • nikola96

    Posted Jun 22, 2009 12:00 pm GMT

    They did'n show any scary clips from the games.

  • TwistedMetalFan

    Posted Jun 18, 2009 2:09 pm GMT

    I personally like the list, but they don't show any scary clips from the games. They show a lot of the weaker parts of those games, like in Doom 3, an imp sneaking up on you? Condemned 2, watching the guy with the mask talk on TV? Come on, there are way scarier moments in these games than this. But, I still think its a decent list.

    i need people to play doom with me.... message if u want to

  • agamepro2U

    Posted Jun 15, 2009 6:32 am GMT

    True Pandora but there are many parts in Doom 3 that would be chilling even if you were just watching and hearing it. The Imp coming behind you thing is so generic it seems like they picked the least scary parts of Doom. Maybe it was to not spoil the game, then i would understand. The original Doom clip was more scary lol.

  • Bioshockfan24

    Posted Jun 11, 2009 3:22 pm GMT

    I agree with pandora2014.

  • Pandora2014

    Posted Jun 1, 2009 2:59 pm GMT

    well ur not even the one playing it. its alot scarier when ur actually playing the game like those games are scary just not in this sense, get what im saying?

  • agamepro2U

    Posted May 12, 2009 7:11 am GMT

    Wow there are soo much more scarier things is Doom 3 besides an Imp comin behind you.

  • ermac1986

    Posted May 6, 2009 9:28 am GMT

    that was just halfass right there. You can tell that they didn't take a lot of time finding the REALLY authentic and scary stuff from games like DOOM 3, Condemned and any of the Resident Evils

  • retrodavid

    Posted Apr 27, 2009 3:07 pm GMT

    interesting but not scary noy even close just because its m it doesnt mean its scary

  • VENOM192

    Posted Apr 19, 2009 9:11 pm GMT

    Was that supposed t be scary? :s

  • Gigeresque

    Posted Apr 17, 2009 10:49 am GMT

    Why is there footage of Resident Evil 5? It wasn't out last year, so what they're doing is using a superb mix of conjecture and advertising. Oh, and isn't this an Australian site? If so, Silent Hill: Homecoming came out in March - and it wasn't a very good game, either - ... Good Game(spot).

    @ Arkaskas
    I agree with you totally not scary.
    I mean in FEAR a little girl being scary?
    And BioShock again little girls and giant suited drilling people?
    Serious lack of ideas.

  • A_Hayes82

    Posted Apr 10, 2009 6:21 pm GMT

    Oh man that was spooky!!! Why did you do this video? Why? It was awful!!!

  • Arkaskas

    Posted Apr 2, 2009 6:14 am GMT

    i didnt find dead space scary.doom 3 was scary at first but then not so much same about fear 1. bioschock not scary anyway

  • zuluith

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 3:40 pm GMT

    i am trying to beat fear right now and it is WAY WAY better than they made it look. it is the scariest best game ever i fell out of my chair once!

    Bioshock had a GREAT atmosphere to it,it wasnt all that scary,but the atmosphere was very dark!

  • jake-lutze

    Posted Mar 18, 2009 11:18 am GMT

    Silent hill 2, condemned and dead space where the only scary ones, but I havent played all the game on the list, so Im not the most credible source.

  • aragorn_bleh

    Posted Mar 15, 2009 2:28 pm GMT

    this video doesn't have good horror content :/ where's Parasite Eve and all the other great classics ?

  • jordan_johnson

    Posted Mar 14, 2009 5:03 pm GMT

    I've played most of those... None them scared me. Remember GS, there is a difference between being startled and being scared.
