Is it just me, or are survial horror games not scary? Resident Evil 4 isn't scary and neither is The Thing. Silent Hill doesn't look scary either. :P

I consider Silent Hill to be much more scary that Resident Evil. It's more psychologically frightening. Project Zero is also frightening. Resident Evil is shocking at times, but Silent Hill and Project Zero tend to disturb you more.

I recommend Silent Hill 2 or Silent Hill 3. You DO have a video store near where you livem Red Mage?

Yeah, we have Blockbuster. I've never seen a Silent Hill game there though. Plus, I don't think I'll be getting a new game in the next weeks...

Have you looked? You may not have Silent Hill 2 there, but maybe Silent Hill 3. Silent Hill 4 is rather hard...

well, i think the first silent hill was kinda boring (ok i never finished it, i wasn't scared though).. although atmosphere wise it is much more chilling then RE. RE usually has a lot of flash and bang stuff that wears off when you play it over and over. My favorite one is when you're walking through the hallway and a bunch of dogs jump through the window. classic.

I've heard SH 2 and 3 are much better.. I wanna play them. :(

I loved the RE's on PS1 :) I have RE4 but it's been put to the side while my motion sickness woes slowly subside. I've been adjusting again by playing PC games.

Two Words: The Suffering

One of my favorite games! The graphics are a little outdated but it scared the hell out of me the first time I played it

yes!

all of these DOOM-type first-person shootem up games give me complexes! i think cause of the sheer amount of times you (well, me) die

i mean, what if i only had a gun to defend myself from monsters or whatever in RL???? i feel like i already have a set back cause i'm not a cat and wouldn't have 9 lives.... if this situation ever happened it would probably result the same way my game play does in these games--with me dying in 10 min lol

:oops:
