^i think back then, anything that scared me was a jump scare. If I were to play it again, that would probably change. I just remember getting scared a lot. Now if I weren't such a pussy, I may actually be able to finish Outlast....eventually.

Wait you managed to beat Amnesia but not Outlast? I found Outlast to start off scary, but by the end of it I just wanted to be done with it so whenever I met a variant I just ran and hid. It was more adrenaline than fear, even the last few times you meet up with Chris it became more about outwitting and outrunning. Still a great game and the perfect length for what it was.

I absolutely love the game, but I've got be in the right mood to deal with the adrenaline. Running and hiding is terrifying when you know what's behind you. The part with Richard Treger was awesome though. I may try to beat it this weekend. I think I'm close.

I will never play Outlast. Horror games just freak me out. I would probably take ten times as long to beat it as anyone else because I would stay in a locker for ten minutes, and then play the rest of the game going at half the speed of smell.

I did watch PewDiePie's playthrough of it though, which was awesome.

I think video games might be the best medium for the genre of horror. Books have disturbed me, but never actually frightened me. Movies have scared me, but they are a passive experience so as long as you remind yourself that it's just a movie the fear can't really go that far. Games on the other hand... I mean you can pause it at any moment if it gets too much, but at the end of the day everything is happening to you.

You can do better than Pewds

I've made a note of Amnesia to play and personally I think the first batch of Resident Evil games are absolute classics.

Actually it sounds like she's trying too hard to sound like Pewds. And she never starts randomly cursing in Swedish, either. I do like how she was clearly about to say "****, nigger!", but tried to pass it off as "**** nugget!"

Besides, I doubt she ever did a game that so completely encompassed her as a person.

Horror games are some of my favorite kind of games. I know I said I was such a little scaredy cat, but the adrenaline that goes along with those type of games is simply wonderful.

Binding of Isaac / Binding of Isaac: Wrath of the Lamb

What? You're surprised to see Binding of Isaac show up on my list already? Well...keep in mind this is the original Binding of Isaac, not the far superior and better of the two remake. Some people may not even be aware that this is the where it all started, but yes, this is the game that started it all. To me, The Binding of Isaac has always been a bit of a...revolutionary game in the industry. It took elements of games that already existed (rogue like, etc) and made it into something beautiful. It's like taking one of your favorite music genres, and releasing the greatest album the genre has ever seen. I remember back when this game first came out, I had seen a video of it from a Youtuber I follow a lot, and instantly I was hooked on the idea of it. The random generation, the items you can pick up, the enemies, all of it was so well done and it really was made into a great game. Unlike the remake, this one isn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination. This one comes packed with little glitches and loading issues most likely due to the fact that the game was built in Flash. That never stopped me from really getting as much enjoyment as I did because before I played the remake, this game was all we had, and we just had to live with those little loading errors and still make a great experience out of it. Definitely one of the best games to be made in the last 10 years.
