MMGN.com writes: The survival horror genre has lost its way in recent years; the heavyweights like Resident Evil and Silent Hill have lost touch with the "survival" part of the genre, opting to go more towards the action-centric gameplay of Dead Space 2. That's why Jason Byrne's Lone Survivor is such a refreshing addition to a genre that needs to get in touch with its roots. How does this $10 adventure compare against the heavyweights?

10 awesome and obscure horror games you probably haven't heard of. What offbeat horror games do you love? Let us know in the comments!
You never heard of it?
Obscure is awesome, it has the style of gameplay of Resident Evil.
If you are a fan of the old school Resident Evil then you should play both Obscure 1 and Obscure 2.
They are so cliched as they get but so cool too lol.
No xD
I'm saying that obscure is an obscure game lol
I played Obscure 1 and 2 and I loved them.
Eternal Darkness is pretty popular. A better entry would've been Clock Tower.
I have Haunting Ground on the PS2 and Siren Blood Curse on the PS3. Both of those games are pretty good.
DeSpiria for the Dreamcast it's a strange horror RPG evolving around a special agent sent to discover an underground cult. It's set in a dystopian future after World War III which leads to some serious creepy atmosphere. The character designs are questionable but it flourishes in monster design and disturbing music (which would have been so much better in full-length but tracks are limited to 20 second loops.) I await the day I am fluent in my Japanese studies so I can play this game in it's entirety.

Haunting Ground, Galerians and Rule of Rose deserves mentions as well. I would go on about these three but I doubt you guys want to read a novel....

There were a couple spots in there that I quite nearly shit myself. No joke.
Interesting choice of Silent Hill 4 over 2! This is also a lengthy list of games that will give me an anxiety attack

I don't think Metro is considered a Horror game lol. At least not at all in the traditional sense.
