Where is Amnesia: The dark descent?

It’s a fuckin’ scary game Sory, Athmosphere and Gameplay-wise!

Scariest moment: When you are in a dark room flooded by water, there is an invisible presence in the water. You must cross the room without atracting it, so u can’t touch the water (you can see its footsteps in the water)

what about that game Amnesia: The Dark Decent?

Example- I completely disagree! Sure, there are fewer pop-up scares in the first FEAR than the second, but that doesn’t make it an awful game! The acting was solid, the atmosphere was well developped, there were tons of guts and bloody ends (that Particle weapon being awesome!) and the story was incredible- what DIDN’T you like? The fact that there weren’t grotesque monsters that jarr the element of realism (like in Cthulhu?) That there weren’t a whole bunch of cheap “She’s right behind you!” moments (to which instead they focused on atmospheric creep-outs like, decayed Alma appearing in that hole in the water, or on various television screens, or staring at you from inside dimly-lit rooms?) The fact that there weren’t endless scenes of “I’m gonna eat your brains and make you watch!” kind of stuff? This was a good FPS game, and I’m sorry that you didn’t get to enjoy it as much as you could have. (If you played it on a computer, may I suggest buying a better graphics card and RAM to avoid those pesky “framerate” and “ugly-graphics” issues?)

Maybe psychological horror just isn’t your thing. Maybe the only horror you can get off on is “needle in your eye” stuff like in the Dead Space series. But if you consider Silent Hill or Call of Cthulhu a horror game (neither of them actually being SCARY!) then Fear CERTAINLY ranks among them.

Though FEAR 2 would’ve been a better choice for this list…

Amnesia the Dark Descent = WIN

How the fuck did Dead Space (or any other “true” horror game) get outranked by FEAR?

And even worse, this is FEAR #1, which is not only an abysmal horror game, but also an abysmal game itself. I never experienced a single “jump-out-of-your-seat” moment the entire time I was playing this shovelware (Alma pops up now and again, BUT SHE NEVER DOES ANYTHING), and all the enemies were soldiers; there wasn’t a single monster among the enemies that I fought. The only thing I found “scary” would be the beyond-ugly graphics and constant framerate issues.

But other than that, great list, and I’m proud of you for including a SIREN game.

I think the video games are backwards. 10 should be number 1, 9 should be number 2 and so on and so on.

Finally played through the first FEAR and it’s expansions and now I STILL can’t believe Silent Hill 2 is number 1! FEAR (and Perseus Mandate) has Silent Hill 2 AND 3 beat. Awesome, awesome game!
