5 Horror Games That’d Be Great as Horror Movies

Exclusively games writes:

''Movies are made from games all the time, and most of the time they’re very bad. There have been some positive ones, and some that are “so bad they’re good,” but one genre that actively sees very few iterations is horror. Sure, you have your Resident Evil movies and your Silent Hill movies, but the intersection of horror games and horror movies could be so much more.''

Good article and any of these games would make an awesome movie if placed in the right director's hands.

Always nice to see a gaming article that isn't clickbait-y and trying to get people angry just for hits.

Some great games on this list, if I had to pick one to produce, it'd be Dead Space for typical horror/gore or SOMA if I wanted something more chilling and thoughtful :)

My first choice would still be Bioshock though and I think it could qualify as horror depending on how it was done.

Dead Space already took elements from Event Horizon.

Eh not too sure about that one it sounds cool in concept but once studio execs get involved that's when things go haywire.

EA Cut Dead Space's Marketing Budget to Pour Into Mirror's Edge Due to Mock Review Scores

Former Visceral Games devs reveal Dead Space's marketing budget was cut in favor of Mirror's Edge because of mock review scores.

I wish EA would just release a DS2 remake. DS is my favorite horror game and DS2 is the best one in the franchise. But because DS1 failed to meet certain numbers EA scrapped the DS2 remake. SH2 remake was great rumors are Konami might be asking for another SH remake. The RE2 remake was great EA just needs to give it another try. But all they seem to do is shitty sports games that are no different from the year before. Change a few players, add different uniform colours, maybe change a team logo. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Agreed. DS was great. But DS2 was even better. Would love to see a DS2 remake, though I would love to see a DS4 even more.
The problem with EA is they make easy $ from the slight changes to their sports titles like football FC games (whatever it’s called nowadays). People just lap that sh1t up.
Comparatively, games like DS which don’t sell 10s of millions, can’t sell them team player add ons and all the like, would seem a hassle to make and unappealing comparatively. Especially when you consider that most EA non sport titles haven’t actually performed well recently.

Dark Souls 2, Darksiders 2, Dead Space 2, Death Stranding 2, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2

The Dead space remake was so good. Better than the original. Shame they won't remake 2.

I loved the original dead space but the remake I just found boring. Game design has moved on and the game really showed its age, just small area encounters repeated again and again.

I bought Dead Space during launch window and I never bought a Mirror's Edge game .

Inverno168d ago

Then they went on to screw both games over.

I'd rather see a new and great Mirrors Edge than another boring Dead Space.
