I'll be picking up Silent Hill: Homecoming, Dead Space, and Left 4 Dead. My most anticipated out of the bunch would be Left 4 Dead, though.

Left 4 Dead is the only definite purchase. I'm hoping on a Dead Space demo.

The only horror game I am actually somewhat interested in is Left 4 Dead, because when's the last time where you seen a good multiplayer/co-op horror game? L4D could possibly be a good one, however the weapons and sounds are too similar to counter strike....not that that's bad.

Playing them all, but I only plan on buying L4D.
I'm not sure what I'll be getting out of Dead Space, being it's a new IP.
And, Team Silent isn't handling SH:H, so I don't know about that.

All sure plays, though.

I'm sure I can trust Valve, so that's why I'll be getting L4D, even though it's new.

To be honest, none. The only horror game I'm looking forward to actually is Resident Evil 5 which comes out in 2009.

Resident Evil really isnt horror anymore.

I'll be buying Left 4 DEad, absolutely. *see signature*

Im a huge silent hill fan, so I'll probably sucker myself into buying it, reviews or not.

I'll rent dead space probably. I want to play it at least

Resident Evil stopped becoming horror after the first f*cking level of 4, when the infected people (or should I just say messed up Spanish guys who your white ass decided to commit genocide on) can be blown apart by your shotgun within the first 20 minutes of gameplay.

Call of Cthulu: Dark Corners of the Earth is all the horror I need in my gaming experience, it kicks the sh*t out of most games on the current market.

Left 4 Dead is a definite. I'm not really into horror games, but Left 4 Dead seems to be less about the scares and more about teamwork and survival.

Out of those choices, Left 4 Dead looks the best. Zombies + coop play = good times.

Silent Hill seems to have taken the route RE4 did and make it more about action and less about fear and story so all of them except that.

i dont think that re5 should be considered a horror game since it CLOSELY follows RE4 and that game was NOT scary... but it was fun. maybe the blind guy that jumps into the cage with you could be considered "scary" but its mostly a "damn it" moment. The only part that was actually kind of scary was the guy in the fridge.

im not bashing re5 or saying its not ganna be good. it just doesnt seem like a "scary" game.

Fun... but not scary.

Nope, not at all. Homecoming is still very much a Silent Hill game.

Agreed. I love RE4, but RE is no longer "horror", imo.

Went out and recently bought Silent Hill 2 -4, and planning on Amazoning SH1. Playing through SH 2 currently and the plan is to finish all 4 games, and then purchasing SHH. So that's my choice :) everything else idc bout or I'll be gone for the Air Force Basic training so I won't have a chance till probably february or March of next year.

And I know I'm a little late on the SH train but I always wanted to play them when I was younger just never had a chance and with the recent release of #5 it just gave me enough motivation :) And my friend is a big SH fan so that added to the hype.

You are referring to I Am Alive... go watch the trailer and you will realize your game description is a reality.

Ah yes, the new project from Jade Raymond. Lets just hope it's slightly less repetitive than Assassin's Creed, because I love the premise of it.
