Lets be honest, after you play amnesia, nothing is enough to scare you

Come on, its probably the scariest game this gen...I dare to say its the scariest game ever made...incredible atmosphere and extremely inmerssive...the game was so inmessive I actually screamed when I got hit because I could imagine the creature doing the same to me...it was like a chill in my spine, it was extremely tense...running away from a monster, knocking things as you run hoping its not close from catching you...

theres this part in special...at the dungeon, where you are just walking around a hallway with a door on your left, and at the end of the hallway you see the monster passing from right to left, but he doesnt see you...so your heart stops...you carefully open the door next to you, hoping it wont listen and then close the door on your way in...when you turn around, bam the monster is there! that part scared the living crap out of me.

I have to say, I rarely get scared while playing...everytime someone tells me "theres this super scary game!" I just go "bleh...its definitly not scary" and I thought the same about amnesia...until I played that thing! truely the best survival horror experience in videogames

I find it impossible to be scared by games. Amnesia being no acception

Just depends on the person. Games don't scare me very often, but Silent Hill 3 was one of the big exceptions. Masterpiece :D

SH2 was better and "scarier" IMO...

Aw hell naw. SH2 had the superior story. but SH3 was better in just about every other aspect. It was Team Silent's swan song (not that crappy SH4)

In my opinion... that is correct. :P :D

That's because you play Amnesia during the daytime with the lights on, and your volume turned all the way down :P

I just started Penumbra Overture and that is pretty freaky. I imagine Amnesia is a lot scarier.

You also forgot to add "with several small children stomping around and screaming" or "with loud annoying friends in earshot ruining your concentration".

I can't play scary games.. I couldnt even get through F.E.A.R. I can watch movies all day long.. but something about being in control freaks me out... I just can't walk around that next corner!!!

Other than maybe a few jump out frights, video games are never scary.

Well, Tagy does have around a dozen children running around the house at all times.No friends though :(

Silent Hill and Fatal Frame series delivered more in the horror department for me. Amnesia is the best this gen though.

I tried the demo but decided not to buy it (even if it was less than $5 in the sale.)

Too scary. Not really a relaxing game to play.

theres this part in special...at the dungeon, where you are just walking around a hallway with a door on your left, and at the end of the hallway you see the monster passing from right to left, but he doesnt see you...so your heart stops...you carefully open the door next to you, hoping it wont listen and then close the door on your way in...when you turn around, bam the monster is there! that part scared the living crap out of me.lightleggy

So, the cheap kind of "scare" then?

Getting lost in Minecraft at night is scarier.

I think the Amnesia's devs nailed survival horror genre. It's amazing for a small indie team actually.

I'm not calling every scare in amnesia "cheap" im calling this particular one cheap, you probably didn't played lots of horror games because this whole "turn around, something pop in your face to surprise you" have been done oftentimes. Don't get me wrong i saw a gameplay video on youtube uploaded by the game company themselve and i won't deny, the game is extremely atmospheric from what i've witnessed.

Of course the experience varies from players to players, to me this particular moment you had was just a cheap attempt at "scaring" the player.

Just looked it up. Ugh, gives me the chills just from watching a gameplay trailer. So buying it. :D

Ill try it. Very few games give me any sort of chills, there was maybe one spot in Dead Space, and one or so creepy spots in Undying, and when I was a kid 7th Guest was eerie. But the massive amounts of horror games available, there really isnt a lot of good ones. So, i'll try this and see how it does.

I have actually played quite a few "horror" games I call them "horror" because I rarely gets scared...that particular scare in amnesia is not a cheap one because..,you see the monster walking at the far end of the hallway, and from what it looks like ,the monster doesnt see you...you wont get this if you dont play the game but everytime you have a monster nearby your heart just stops...and in this part, the monsters runs from side to side really fast so you can actually only see a blurry figure running...so you open the door at your left, its a cell door (the doors in amnesia are opened 100% manually...you may leave a door half open or at any angle you want) and you enter the cell, the cell only has 1 way to enter and thats the door you just used, so when you enter the cell its completly empty and you say "phew..." and close the door...when you look back, the monster somehow got inside the cell and now you are trapped in a room with the monster...you get extremely tense and your heart pumps really fast...seriously you wont understand if you dont play the game

If you're scared by a game, you've never faced danger in real life.
