Looking for a horror game

 Iv found two pretty fun looking horror games that id like to get so i could play with my friend and i was wondering whats scarier Call of cthulu:Dark Corners of earth or Fear.

FEAR is more of an action game than straight horror. It has its moments but for actual tension and scares I'd good with Call of Cthulhu. But it's a bit older and a bit crummier and clunkier looking. But it does provide some great atmosphere. They both serve different needs in the horror scene. Cthulhu is more about building the tension and fear, FEAR is more about jump scares and loud noises. 

Can't go wrong with either though

Penumbra is pretty good.

k thx guys i unfortunaly wont be able to play dead space or amesia on this pc since it sucks ass.Thx anyways though :P

Amnesia and Penumbra series run quite well on older computers mate, have a look into it they are the best horror games around right now IMO.

Minimum requirements for Amnesia are:

OS: Microsoft Windows XP / Windows Vista / Windows 7
CPU: Intel Pentium IV at 1.5 GHz (Intel Celeron 3.0 GHz)
RAM: 1GB RAM 
Video Card: nVidia GeForce FX / ATI Radeon 9600
Direct X: 9.0

The Penumbra games are a few years older than Amnesia so if you can run Amnesia you should have no problem with those either.

The Walking Dead, obviously.  Exceptional drama horror and story. . . at least for a game.

Also google /v/s recommended horror games.  That's a pretty good list.  I can't link it cause there's a curse in the link that gamespot is blocking.

Clive Barker's Undying. Still my favorite horror based game of all time. Keep hoping it will end up on GoG.com. I have voted for it and all should do so on their site.

AMNIESIA

you can also try alan wake, dead space or amnesia.evildead6789

I still remember the first time i played through the game and how amazing it was both story wise and just the constant tension the game had, with some beautiful environments to add to the scare.
