Five major horror games that fail to horrify

Much the same principle that separates real stand-up comics from despairing, clutching attention-seekers applies to the difference between good and bad survival horror games. You can have all the right lines, but if you don't lead the crowd and pick your moments you'll be deafened by silence. Case in point: Xbox Live Arcade release Amy, a cavalcade of poorly paced homages to older peers, contriving to deliver a vaguely foreboding atmosphere which never ignites into terror.
