Never really played them but that was because they didn't interest me. I tried the first game a few years ago and thought it was interesting that people liked those controls before. They're awful. Then again running around shooting guys and dinosaurs is interesting if basically pointless. I heard Turok 2 is more focused so I'll probably try it someday.

Oh. :D

Turok was an interesting game. I only played the first one.

Devil's avocado - the first Ridge Racer for the PS1 didn't have much on the disc either.

Dino Crisis is easier to get at the moment. Also, that is billed as a survival horror game. It's literally exactly like the PSone Resident Evil games except with Dinosaurs.

Okay. How about I move Fatal Frame to second to last and move the rest up one? And I'll switch Parasite Eve and Condemned?

Well, I started Dino Crisis and I've only been scared once. It was when this big ass T-Rex busted through a window and I had to shoot his mouth. Other than that, I haven't been scared or on edge. Then again, I liked dinosaurs as a kid.

LOL! I never even thought of that game.

I'm mostly afraid of serial killers because that's real. It's not unfathomable for someone to surprise you and come at you with a knife. Creatures and monsters freak me out too but ones that I know what they are don't as much. So werewolves, zombies, vampires, those are all less scary. Whatever the hell those things are in Silent Hill freak me out.

I don't have a religious upbringing per se so demon stuff isn't as bad but The Exorcist is the reason I'm afraid of all of this in the first place. I saw it when I was four and it basically screwed up horror movies and by extension, games.

I've noticed jump scares really get me. Also, atmosphere. Usually, I stop watching or playing something scary because I'm so tense and on edge, I can't go on. Nothing has actually even happened.

Example: While playing Condemned, what was frequently going through my mind is, "It's too dark. I can't see anything. Is there something around the corner? There could be. Is there something behind me? I don't like it here. WHAT WAS THAT NOISE!?"

I guess usually terrify myself because of the unknown and from thinking too much.

It's a parody of the RHCP song Snow (Hey Oh).

I know the Fatal Frame series is suppose to be really scary. That's why it's towards the bottom of the list. I didn't put it at the bottom because I'm afraid of other things more than ghosts. I mean those things in Silent Hill. I don't even know what the hell they are. Famous story: I started Silent Hill 3 and the first monster that came at me scared me so much, I paused, exit out of the game to the main menu and turned the game off in one quick motion in like five seconds.

I thought Deadly Premonition was really scary but I guess its more like corny horror? Maybe I'll move that up the list. F.E.A.R. I've tried before and it's more action based to me but the horror elements did start to get to me, which is why I stopped. Alma is a bit creepy but I don't actually know how that game scares you so I don't know what's supposed to be creepy about her.

I actually bought Dead Space because it looked so cool to me but then I started playing it and I got through a few creatures but was then too terrified to go on. I own Doom 3 on Steam but I got too scared to go on after some time. That's basically a FPS though so it shouldn't be too bad.

Thanks a lot for the advice. You helped a lot. I think I'll move up Resident Evil as well. Would you say that Dino Crisis is a good place to start though? Or should it be something else? Is Dino Crisis scarier than Doom 3, Resident Evil and Deadly Premonition?
