Thatīs 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.
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

I just cant think of it as scary, when Gordon Freeman is chased by zombies with "We-Rip-Alien" type things attached to their faces. I mean, COME ON! Itīs Gordon Freeman, the King of the Crowbars!

Now, the first Resident Evil game, that was something. I still can remember how ugly the 'Hunter' creature was, ugly but deadly. One jump and I was headless.

But anyways, it pretty much depends on who you are in the game to determine if itīs scary or not (atleast for me). Doom guy is a bada$$, so I laugh at the noises and screams I hear in the corridors. Instead I clean my chainsaw from all the blood.

Personally I'm a fan of Resident Evil 2. Resident Evil is a classic don't get me wrong but... oh god... what terrible voice acting.

A part that stands out in Resident Evil 2 though was when the licker skitters across the outside of the window. You see it do that and then there is a door that goes into a hallway that it was headed to and it's like, oh Sh!t, I got to go in there. Then the CGI part takes over and its on the ceiling... classic RE shot there.
