This in-depth review on Outlast showcases everything right and wrong with one of the scariest games of all time. Anyone remotely interested in buying it should take a look!
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.
Outlast, the classic horror game from former Ubisoft developers Red Barrels, has a new speedrun world record, as SGDQ begins its 2022 livestream
'One of the Scariest games of all time' is a bit far for this one personally. The atmosphere is creepy at the start and add to the first few jump scares but it becomes soo tedious and predictable that it lost any horror aspect for me
But horror takes players differently, so theres alot of opinions about it :D
I guess 4 of you guys don't like it, but I do though. Despite its repetitiveness(all games to a degree have some repetition), the game does a good job of scarring the crap out of people. This game is way more scarier than Resident Evil, and Silent Hill combine, especially when (Spoiler Alert) when you finally face the ghost Billy, you saw in the night rainy graveyard area. I like the fact that there is no weapons for you to use against these guys, which increases the fear factor compared to other so called horror games. Remember guys this game like Slender, and Amnesia are low budget Indy games. So don't expect to much out of the game. A low budget game that's well crafted and scarier than those other games I mention.
Well I don't think The Evil Within will be all that scary either. After watching that second gameplay video, where the main character use a bomb to blow up zombie like creatures, I scream Resident Evil 5 and 6. Look here 14:00 minutes at the end of the video:

Alien Isolation will be those Indy horror games with mainstream appeal combine. I am calling it my most anticipated game of 2014.
I hated this game!!!
Look at the circumstances. The fact that it was free bumps this game up to a 9 outa 10. If I payed for it the score would drop to a 7 but seriously.... FREE. Every gripe that you have..... FREE... If this game didnt scare you and you are not a fan of this genre.... well then I dont know why you are here....... FREE
Edit: Got further in his review and he wants rocks and maps. He doesnt know they already announced an outlast 2 and he had to use the internet to look up where to go in this game. This guy needs more research and experience playing games before he rates it this low.
