I'm a wuss when it comes to scary games. I don't know what it is, but playing them gets me seriously spooked. It's strange, because I wasn't always this way. Watching horror flicks is just fine with me, and the creepier the better. But with games it's a different story. Something about their interactivity gives me a palpable feeling of imminent danger; a more potent sensation than any film has ever induced.

Game Description: Something terrible is seeping into the once pristine mountain air. The residents of Raccoon City go about their lives unaware of the dark fate that surrounds them. Sent in to investigate a series of grisly murders in the area, S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team scrambles into action. On the way to the scene, Bravo’s helicopter crashes. Although everyone survives, what they discover next is a gruesome site. An overturned military transport truck, riddled with corpses. Rookie member Rebecca Chambers is beginning to wonder what she got herself into. Bravo Team is about to discover the evil nightmare that is growing all around them.

I remember when Resident Evil was a good game. Believe it or not, it wasn't always the industry leader in beating dead horses. In fact, at its debut back in 1996 it was an amazing experience. With all due respect to Alone In The Dark, Capcom's original frightfest is what made the horror genre such a raging success, and rightfully so.

The Thing, with its fantastic source material and unorthodox gameplay, is one of the few games that dares to break the mold. It is, without question, one of the most compelling survival-horror games I've played since Konami's Silent Hill 2 last year. Brad seems to have had a much less favorable experience with the game than I did particularly with regard to the trust/fear system so its those aspects I'd like to address first.

Where Vampire Night differs is the slightly slower paced action on screen. Rather than having enemies clutter the screen and overwhelm players, Vampire Night has a more calculated flow and enemies tend to exhibit more physical reactions and gestures than one might expect from this type of game.

Game Description:  What is the world to do when vampires overrun it? It turns to the only two guys who have a chance against the bloodsuckers: Michel and Albert. Based on the arcade game of the same name, Vampire Night allows you to choose your character and set out to shoot vicious vampires. Taking place in an idyllic European village, the game sends you through snowy fields, old dungeons, back alleys, and more. Awesome cutscenes help the story advance, while two-player action makes the experience even more exciting.
