"In recent days, I can’t think of a genre that has been so utterly undernourished as Survival Horror. Long gone are the days of Silent Hill 2 – where intelligent audio design and a lack of firearms lead to deep paranoia and genuine horror amongst the gaming circle. How reassuring it is to note then, that Red Barrels debut title attempts to champion everything that makes the genre so important, so compelling and so terrifying…" says Gamerwho's Gary Marston.
Explore 5 horror games that promise unforgettable scares and sleepless nights. Perfect for thrill-seekers!
Very safe list of horror games. I would argue that Amnesia Machine for Pig was not that great. Dark Descent was much a much better game.
Far better games have been released in this genre (Dead Space Remake, Alien Isolation, Alan Wake 2 etc).
The Xbox One is full of SPOOKS, and that's all you should know about. Here is a list of the best horror games on the system.
A lot of my favourites are on this list so I whole heartedly approve.
Everything except The Observer. It started out really interesting but quickly unraveled into a train wreck. Including frustratingly dull dives into mind sequences, They neutered the monster with boring on rail stealth sequences and a laughably obvious and cringeworthy ending. Mix in bugs and some wonky controls to boot.
I had really strong impressions with it to start but ended up absolutely hating it.
I got 2-3hrs in and couldn't take it anymore, the constant need to switch between the 3 visions just became so annoying and honestly just unnecessary.
I actually agree. At first I thought it was a great idea because the game wasn't holding your hand with the Detective work but it was so unintuitive too. It became a sequence of staring at everything for long enough in 3 different vision modes just to see what stuck.
Soma would be more existential horror than anything but I'll be damned if it didn't have one of the best stories in game that I've experienced. Blew my mind.
The spooky season is at last upon us, making the next couple of weeks the perfect time for a healthy helping of horror. There's no shortage of options out there, so here are a few suggestions to get the ball rolling!
I remember the suffering and it was descent game. I always wanted to play Crimson but never got to it.
But honestly, I’ve never played a game that really scared me, like some movies from the past have.
I remember The Suffering 1 and 2. I haven't thought about those games in years. I still remember some parts of the level in the prison where a guy was sucked through a vent screaming. I don't know why that's stuck with me all of these years.
I dunno if i can agree about what the writer says about outlast looking better on pc, im mainly a pc gamer and have played it on pc and on my ps4. I cant see any difference beetween them at all. They basically look exactly the same. And yea, i am quite picky about graphics.
These writers keep on n on bout PC looking better, I wish they would write the Specs of the PC they talk bout when reviewing a game, cause I know for a fact you can not build PC to look like X1 n Ps4 for $399.00 can't not do it, add a good controller to it also, for what you get with a console you can't go Wrong, with PC you have to deal with Drivers, lag, Frame rate if your pc can't run the game, and yes pc CPU and all gets dated same as consoles!!
good game, I recommend it to every Xbone owner who isn't afraid to shit their pants (like i almost did)
