What is the scariest game ever made?

For me it's the original Silent Hill on the Playstation followed closesly by it's sequel.

Runescape is the scariest Game I have played 9/10

You know the scariest of runescape? Runescape Classic (http://www.gaminghorror.net/runescape-classic-still-playable/). It is so scary it is hilarious.

have to agree with raven silent hill for me superb at the time only problem is i havent realy moved on much since lol

apart from the odd blast on the kids i rarely bother these days i still think the best game i ever played was goldeneye on the nintendo 64 or maybe zelda i must be getting old

I have to agree with thered there as I share the same opinion.....nothing has touched the original Silent Hill game yet in the horror genre for genuine scares and what that game does brilliantly that no other game has done is create a genuine uneasy atmosphere while you play it...it's difficult to explain unless you have played the game and know exactly what I'm talking about......anyway in my opinion these are my best games that I've ever played and as it happens I don't think any game has touched these yet in their genre - Goldeneye, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time, Perfect Dark, WWF No Mercy.

Really the n64 was an awesome console. And the psx had Silent Hill, Tekken3 and MGS cannot argue with that! No wonder the Dreamcast went under, great console but really it didn't stand a chance.

I really hope Goldeneye (or Perfect Dark) and Ocarina of Time get remade someday like Street Fighter 2 Turbo currently has. They really are staples of their genres.

I also hope Konami makes the next Silent Hill game as Homecoming was made by Americans and needless to say it is dogshit by comparison...it just doesn't have that certain flair to it that the Japanese developers seem to be able to ingrain into their games. Homecoming was alot like the Silent Hill movie for me....you can see that they tried and it wasn't half as bad as it could have been, but still it wasn't anywhere near as good as it perhaps should have been considering the source material.

I'd have to go with Silent Hill as well. Tho Res Evil was a very close 2nd, I think it loses out due to the door (http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_doors_are_in_Resident_Evil_1) factor.

I remember waiting for Resident Evil to come out on the PSX, I absolutely loved that game and I still do.

A year or so later I downloaded an .iso for a game that I had never heard of, it was called 'Silent Hill', I hadn't seen or heard a single review for it but I liked the name so I grabbed it.

OMFG, it's easily the creepiest, most disturbing game I've played, like Raven said nothing has come close to the level of psychological dread you feel when playing this game, for me it took gaming to another level.

Silent Hill 2 was also excellent, but the rest of them were IMO dissapointing.

I've still not played 'Homecoming' as I'm waiting for the PAL XBOX360 release.

I thought Clive Barkers Undying was pants TBH. The trailers always looked good but I thought the gameplay was shit.

You have all rekindled my love of Silent Hill , though I remember Res Evil being stuck in my head untill I finished it.

As for P.c Games Iam gonna go with F.E.A.R ,As most other FPS is WAR , no scary atmosphere ;)

I agree with the F.E.A.R. I have never jumped so much in a game. Another one for excellent atmosphere is S.T.A.L.K.E.R (the first).

Silent Hill was scary.

Sanitarium freaked me out.

Doom 3. the bit where your wandering down and some womans voice says "they took my baby" then it all goes red and you hear a baby screaming... it was bovril bullet time.

System Shock 2 scared me.

The scariest though? Alien V Predator 2.
Playing the alien was ok, playing the predator was fun.
Playing space marine though was pretty bleak, i dont think there was a moments downtime from running around out of ammo with aliens chasing you around :(

Thats game was called Project Zero (Fatal Frame in USA) and i will not touch any horror game other than that - absolutely amazing! For those seeking a true horror game, it's a must. Puts everything else to shame, all the other games like Resident Evil doesn't give me the "horror" feeling, it's more action type, true horror is more spiritual. Honestly guys, give it a go, there are 4 titles in total now! :)

I bought Project Zero 2 a few years ago (only one I bought or have ever played) at the recommendation that it was more a Silent Hill type game than a Resident Evil type game....so anyway I played it and could see that it was a psychological horror title - but - I found the game to be very boring, just wandering around and giving out photoshoots as though it was some sort of casting audition for The Ring.....nice attempt, but just was lacking a few things in the entertainment section.

I think F.E.A.R. siries is scary enough.
It doesn't have very clever scenario, and it's quite ordinary first player shooter, but in some places, in absolute darkness, and you are chased by invisible ghosts... brr.. it itches my nerves

SIlent Hill it`s allright, Fear is almost not scary...

For me, the scariest game is Nosferatu: Wrath of Malachi.

Fear was a serious scary game at the time.

These days Demon's souls but fear is a genre that has died in the last few years. i'll be voting for system shock 2

Silent Hill - Playstation 1.

Even typing it sends a shiver down my spine! I remember thinking at the time 'Whoever wrote this game is seriously disturbed'. It got to the point where i couldn't play it if i was at home alone or in the dark!!

14th December, 2010, 06:38 PM
Dead Space...

Played on my own... Early hours of the morning.... Nobody else in the house... Wearing headphones... Mega shit ya pants experience... I dare anyone to do it...

Amnesia the Dark Descent is pretty atmospheric and jumpy too on PC...

Wearing headphones playing any scary game adds so much to the atmosphere...

Dead Space 2 with your headphones on full whack playing in the pitch black is kinda heart melting.

There are so many of them, good scary games making you crap your pants.

Scariest ? I'd say "Shadow of the comet" when I was a child and "Fatal Frame/Project 0" in the past 10 years.

Ah no wait, scariest is Bubsy 3D.

My flatmates and I recently replayed the first Silent Hill, passing the controller when one of us died. We're in our early twenties, this is an old game, and we were terrified. Would not play alone. Movies aren't scary but games can easily get to me.

I remember years ago playing the original Max Payne late at night with all the lights off and surround sound on - one part you go through a door and its dark and you have to make your way across platforms to the other side without falling off the side and whilst your doing this there is the sound of a baby crying - spent over an hour in this room trying to get out and the sound of the baby just spooked me
