BT: "Ahhh October! The leaves are changing to vibrant colors, a cool breeze is blowing across your face, and the nights are getting longer and longer. October is my favorite month out of the whole year. It is also the month typically associated with the darker side of our natures, culminating in the celebration of Halloween at months end, perhaps the best holiday in existence because it’s one of the few holidays where people cut loose and have fun, in a scary sort of way.
And what better time to start a sort of thematic series for Characters with Character. While this is at best a loosely defined thematic device, I figure we might as well try to do something horror themed for the whole month. So why not kick things off with something obscure; at least to non-survival horror game fans. Let me introduce you to Scissorman, a notorious serial killer involved in the Clock Tower series of games."
Got that retro survival horror bug? Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best survival horror games from yesteryear.
Eternal Darkness was way ahead of its time especially for a Nintendo exclusive.
I would love to see a remake or sequel (multiplatform)
4 people love Eternal Darkness.
Quick! Jump on that remake, whoever holds the rights these days.
Clock Tower PC and console ports have beeen announced for early 2024, with physical releases for the classic horror game also planned. Features list revealed along with more details.
i have never played this one, but i have seen alot of stuff and ill absolutely going to get it.
I bought this for the PlayStation and it wasn't cheap on ebay along side of The city of the lost children.
I remember playing this one on my PC some years ago, with an unofficial translation. Of course, I sailed the seven seas for that, and this will be an opportunity to own the game legally/revisit it on my console of choice, so I’m looking forward to this.
Capcom recently revealed interest in reviving their dormant IPs, so it's time to look at which Capcom series would make sense to return.
Breath of Fire, Knights of the Round, Saturday Night Slam Masters, a proper Bionic Commando game, Ghosts and Goblins. I am all down for Dino Crisis loved 1 and 2 one thing I like about Capcom is their massive library of games that need to be brought back to life. Next to Konami, Namco, Sega, old Squaresoft, Capcom was and is another one of my favorite developers. I would like it if Disney would just let Capcom make a Marvel game or two or Disney should let Capcom handle some Disney games. Capcom pulled of some great games with both Disney characters and Marvel characters.
All those plus Rival Schools, Powerstone, Darkstalkers, Dungeons and Dragons and Aliens vs Predator.
Breath of fire would be number one choice.
Glad to see it getting some love in the comments. I loved these games 1 through 4.
Not dragon quarter
Dark Stalkers, any fighting game - or side scroller - really, just not with SF's current art direction.
I feel the Clock Tower series has been very under rated. It's a shame that not many people know just how scary they are. Well, Capcom's approach to Clock Tower 3 was a little too abstract, but the concept of someone chasing you room to room without having a means to fight back, makes the fear factor so intense.
Good one. This game was awesome, and it was the menace of scissorman that made it so intense.
the original games were SUPER GOOD
never played the Capcom one though
First Clock Tower game was easily the scariest game I've ever played. The series was extremely underrated.
i loved the clock tower series especially 3. im glad someone with taste mentioned it. some of the list compiled from game sites were just ridiculous. not even scary or horror. dead rising 2 was listed as a halloween game? really? Siren ps3 needs to be at #1 for this generation that game was scary
