Doom 3 - Be honest!

Lies. Play with the lights off and a subwhoofer. Then you will know fear

Doom 3 is OK. But I would not consider it exceptionally scary. Have you ever played Aliens vs. Predator as the marine (especially before they added savegames in a later patch)? Or Thief, Haunted Cathedral level?

Now those were soil the pants moments. I would wind up panicking and spraying my pulse rifle in every direction. The tension and fear became just too much so I decided the best course was to play as the Alien or Mr Predator. Then the tables were turned and I could sit back and hear those girly marines scream.

I usually play with lights off, can see better when there is a dark spot in the game. But even with a subwoofer, I doubt I would be scared. After the two first Halloween movies, I´ve yet to see a game/movie that scares me big time! F.E.A.R., The Ring and the Silent Hill series (NOT THE MOVIE, YUK!!!) came close.

I may have to pick up some of these titles....I love a game that keeps me on the edge of my seat like that..

Especially not with dimmed lights, headphones and the volume up...

That was such a scary level partly because it was so well executed and also because it was such a shock of a change after the dystopian running from the man deal. It just was such a moody level.

HL2 is the best game in all the ones mentioned here just cause it does the spooky scare me stuff and the other trippy dystopian stuff thats so rarely that well done.

Doom3 scared me a couple of times
I hated the ghost voices ''Heeeeelp...meee''

and the bloody lights pissed me off...turning off and on...and flicker...because really when the lights turned of ... I didnt move for 5 minutes...I just picked a flash light and looked.....pffff....nothing...lights back on..I walk 10 meters and then BANG! lights off and I have enemies everywhere...and that scared me the most. at the point u get the minigun, and the music in the background is thrilling I just had my 5 minutes of shooting every ugly son of a b!tch away. but then ...sometimes I just played 15 minutes...and then a door came...will I enter it? ...no..quit&save and calm down

I always hate it when Imps are crouching behind the door and when it opens they pounce straight at the camera. The number of CUSSES escaping from my person is unbelieveable. However, the game does have a few points where its just cool. Two of which I enjoy every time

1) Putting on that crazy death helmet, and becoming beserk and invincible
2) Picking up the radioactive barrels and dumping them in the incinerator, then picking up the dead body and his little mop trolley and burning them too :rotfl:

Talking about the whispering voices, I was lulled into a false sense of security, as the first voice led me to a good weapon, and then I heard another later on and all I got was a facial makeover at the hands of Hellspawned plasma.

That´s another thing that I fail to find scary.

Aye, I too wonder what the big deal was with this section of the game. The Citidel part with the zombified humans (stalkers?) gave me a jump or two.

EDIT: Actually check that, right when I posted this I remembered the fast zombies, I had forgotten all about those those in Ravenholm. Suppose my brain was trying to repress those paticular frightening moments, LOL.

I've never played any of those, and probably never will. I like history, I play historical sims and read historical books. Mostly.

Bah, my shotgun ate those for breakfast.

Yep me too, i found the ravenholm level strange all of a sudden we in some doom type level shooting bad guys, then its back to HL2. I suppose this was suppose to be the scary bit. Not scary at all.

Anyone know the latest Silent Hill game - whats it called
