Like my topic states, I've been looking through some of my PS2 games and realized that despite the better graphics and what not that the "next generation" systems offer they haven't produced a horror game that I can say is "scary" or even "creepy" :(

This argument is based on the fact the the best horror games that I've ever played all came from the PS2. Top on my list would be the Fatal Frame series, in particular the second. Fatal Frame was great not only in the fact that things happened to make you scream:o but the atmosphere combined with bone chilling sounds made it so that you would look over your back at the slightest noises and rarely left your door open while you played at night. :shock:

But now look at the PS3, which I have owned for a little over a year now. They have come out with several horror games (such as Jericho and Condemned 2) and not one has been able to deliever the same feeling.:( At best, these games have made you say "eww" instead of making you yell out in shock or shake despite the fact that its 90 degrees outside. They seem to be aiming for the gamble that if they have enough gore in a game that you'll be satisifed. :roll: Well I work as an EMT so blood, guts, and brain fragments don't scare me, especially since I've had the pleasure of seeing and even handling these substances. What happened to the good old days were blood was an accessory to the fright and not the primary mechanism?:?

I just hope that they can bring out something that is at least a half of what Fatal Frame and many other PS2 titles were. Some of the titles that I'm looking at and praying for are Alone in the Dark and Silent Hill: Home Coming, but I'm not holding my breath.:|
