The scariest game ever...

[arctrooper48]

actually, the kraken thingy does about ten damage... I found that out 3 weeks ago when i was searching my friends video game library. Silent Hill Series.

You mean they're not?????

And stay on topic man, I'm TRYING TO STAY ON TOPIC

This is about the scariest videogame ever, King's Field. It's about discussing King's Field and its scarriness as well as games you think are scary not "this man said all horror games are about bazookas HE MUST BE SERIOUS LOL!!"

You see, King's Field is successful in terms of outright fear because you're alone with no contact to the outside world. Fatal Frame made references to an outside world; in King's Field it's you and plastic dagger against the world. If I was caught in a haunted island filled with monsters with a cheap knife I'd piss my pants.

discuss

p.s. they call me the wit machine

Firstly, don't complain about going off topic when you are also part of the "off topic" arguement. And as far as King's Field goes, the game was terrible and completely devoid of any elements of horror.

I still gotta go with Resident Evil on this one. Not the crappy, "BLAAHGHGH I'm a Zombie Charging at you, you've got to do some backwards matrix flip to mars and shoot me in the head six times to kill me" Resident Evil's of today like Resident Evil 4. Or even Resident Evil 3, as cool as Nemesis was, he wasn't going to make you jump out of your skin. And don't even get me started on how shit that movie was!

Resident Evil, the original, mansion, no friends, lots of enemies, Little ammo, all kinds of creepy shit jumping out at you, creepy doors and camera angles, never knowing if solving this puzzle will cause the wall in front of you to tear down and Tyrant is standing in front of you. Best way to survive? Run like hell!!!

I really couldnt call what they do in RE running. Its more of a light jog.

WHERE R UR FAX?? I DEMAND FACTS!

p.s. stay on topic

I thought the suffering was pretty scary; only because my brother demanded I play it in the dark (no light whatsoever) and music/sfx up loud. Man, that's how you play a horror game.

I loved how the suffering threw all of these images at you... like drowning your children and beating your wife to death. They even interspersed demonic chanting in your head against your wife's angelic conscious.

Those weren't presented as facts, only my opinion. Unlike you who tried to claim that "all horror games use bazookas" and then tried to pass it off as an exaggeration, which I rebutted further. And I think it's cute that you make an off topic remark and proceed to tell me to stay on topic. Awesome

Sure the game had horror, but in all the wrong places. The controls really scared me, and so did the design. Yech.

Anyone remember Granfaloon, a boss from Symphony of the Night made up of FLOATING DEAD NAKED GUYS???

Cool idea, not executed very well. They dont have faces or hair or penises, they look like a bunch of dolls.

It was pretty realistic for a 1997 game using a low screen resolution. Plus they moved in battle and fell off like rotten flesh when you killed them in-game.

No friends? Assuming you play as Jill (the game's alternate easy setting), fucking Barry saves you every other minute. Let's look at some situations either character can get in:

JILL:
"Oh boy, a shotgun!" *grabs and exits room* "Oh no, the ceiling is falling and the doors are locked! I can't get out!" *in comes macho man Barry to bust the door down to save your ass* "I gotcha Jill!" "Oh thanks Barry! I'll make sure never to get into stupid situations by not noticing the trap on the brackets for the shotgun ever again!"

CHRIS:
"Hot damn, a shotgun!" *grabs and exits room* "Oh no, the ceiling is falling and the doors are locked! I can't get out!" *Wesker walks down hallway whistling* "Damnit!" *Squish* GAMEOVER

Also kids, it's not cool to argue about what's on-topic and what's not. And that boss was pretty cool looking in SOTN.

 

[Balore]

That boss is also known as Legion. One of my favorite bosses.

 

[ryanwh]

WHAT A COOL NAME DONT YOU THINK MARCUS??

 

[Raziel]

I would say Silent Hill 3. There is one scene that is great. You can see the video of the scene here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=tkYtflr1KsM

 

[FoxDemonSoavi]

I loved SOTN. It wasn't really a horror game but it did creep my out in some places. I am not a real horror game fan.

Ok I have to be sincere with you all...
To me, the scariest game ever is Sonic the Hedgehog of master system.

When I was 6 years old my parents gave me a Master System 3 with Sonic on memory, and the game was cool... untill I get to the forest level to face robotnic without rings, equilibrating on a kind of half pipe avoiding his bombs... man I really fear this game...
It gave me nights of nightmares...

I know what you mean man. The labrynth level was the height of Sonic level design.

 

[ArtBane]

Fatal Frame 3. I never played a game that was that scary and boring at the same time. And I've played them all (even the obscure Clock Tower titles).

 

[Vent]

The first Resident Evil game on playstation was the scariest game experience I ever had. I was in 3rd grade at the time when I would watch my older brother play it in the dark. I remember how I was sitting on a couch with blankets over me during the last boss fight with the Tyrant. As the Tyrant was revealed in the game, I remember how I started hiding under the blankets and peeking out. After that I was scared to take a shower, sleep, turn corners, and be alone.

I find it funny that Resident Evil scared me at first, but now none of them scare me in the slightest. But Silent Hill on the other hand scares the living crap out of me!

I cant even play a Silent Hill game for longer than ten minutes before wussing out. there isnt a Silent hill that doesnt scare the shiznet out of me! I am such a wuss XD;;;
