I'm just curious to know which games you've played are the scariest for you, and why.
I haven't really played many horror-shooter games except for Doom 3 (if you can call it a "horror shooter"), Resident Evil 4 (the combat felt clunky and slow. Probably because it is...), and F.E.A.R. 2. Out of those 3, I'd have to say F.E.A.R. 2 is DEFINITELY the scariest game I've ever seen or played. The music, atmosphere, and the immersion factor (especially when played at night with a headset) made encounters with monsters, ghosts, and especially Alma VERY frightening. And for me, that's saying something, considering how I don't find horror movies scary (sometimes maybe disgusting, but not scary), or how I am generally not scared of things people would normally be scared of. I felt my heart-rate skyrocket on more than just one occasion while playing F.E.A.R. 2. Genuinely creepy game.
