Scariest Game you Played this Year

[JasonPratt]

No, I'm talking about the very first Arkham game, Arkham Asylum. It runs smooth as silk, especially on PC, where it can usually be found cheap especially on various sales.

Alien: Isolation: The Kotaku Review

Knock, knock. Who's there? An alien. It kills you.

Both Soma and Outlast look pretty fantastic.

If it makes a difference, Soma is currently only $5 on Steam...

Really? It's showing as 29.99 on the Steam store.  ???

[JudgeDredd]

^yeah - £22.99 here.

I just watched one of the videos and now I can't get to sleep!  >:D

I'm torn on Soma.  I couldn't finish Amnesia because it was too frightening, but Soma is supposed to be amazing way beyond just being scary.  Oh, what to do...

[Father Ted]

Blimey, you Americans and your Halloween!

[Toonces]

Crap, sorry guys.  I meant Outlast is $5.  Soma is like $30 which is a bit steep IMHO.

[Huw the Poo]

Blimey, you Americans and your Halloween!

They bloody love it, don't they?  As someone who reads Reddit every day I kind of dread it...for a good week the front page is nothing but "look at my costume!"

[BanzaiCat]

I couldn't care less about Halloween, and it seems the trick-or-treaters get thinner each year. My daughter did it last year, but she was 13, pretty borderline for that sort of thing IMO. My son's almost 17 so there's no way he's going out to do that.

I enjoy scary games...watching them, anyway. Not so much playing.

SOMA looks like a mindf*ck of epic proportions...I've only seen Markiplier's first two episodes. I gotta decide now if I want to buy it so I don't get too many spoilers revealed too soon.

And hell to the nope with Outlast, just like Alien Isolation. Like I said I enjoy watching them, but playing a game where I have to run in terror and hide from something all-powerful isn't appealing at all.

[Gusington]

What the hell is wrong with Halloween? Must check out SOMA...

[Toonces]

Both look great.  Soma definitely looks awesome but since I haven't finished Amnesia nor Pneumbra yet, I don't see any need to blow full price on it.  I'll wait until Xmas and catch it 50% or more off.

I still have Alien+DLC in my library not even installed yet.   :o

^On that note I probably should not have posted this thread right after I pre-ordered another upcoming title, again :/

[Huw the Poo]

For god's sake Gus, what's the matter with you?!  Never pre-order games!

You're supposed to give them candy, not crystal meth.
