Let's face it,we've all twisted minds,we want to see rotting carcases and deformed humans and we want to be scared,cause well,it makes us feel...............alive. Now most games are able to pull this off by making us feel as if our lives depended on our character surviving,but there are a lot that don't quite get there. Games like Amnesia and Dead Space constantly weigh on our backs a sense of impending doom and jeopardy,and we feel paranoid as if there's something there when there isn't,even to an extend that we get scared of our own shadows. I remember that feeling when walking through the Police Department of RE2 and suddenly zombie hands burst through the wooden barricade,breaking the silence,causing me to fling my controller and hide. I constantly hear about how such an amazing game RE4 was until I played it and wondered "what the crap is this?" There were no zombies,the puzzles never felt the same as those "aha" moments in RE2 when you figured something out. What was a tense,survival-horror game went to being something more action orientated and no sense of fear,you can't exactly be scared of a normal person you can hear and see coming from far away. Capcom took something beloved,and pooped all over it,gee thanks Capcom. Nevertheless horror games are in full force these days with brilliant graphics ( granted that's not everything ;slender,SCP contamination breach ) but I've yet to find a game that matches everything that RE2 had brought to the table.
