DooM the first time through and in some new mods
Both Alien vs. Predator games.
Some parts of Half-Life
Duke3D: episode 2 at 3am after 1 too many cans of coke. Level 4 is really creepy.

Tenebrae could be but it hasn't been exploited properly yet. DooM III likely will be.

I remeber playing silent hill 2 at night and the lights were out. I was in this dark, abandonned block of flats. I went into this room and saw the telly there was off. I went back after getting some item of some sort to find a guy slouched dead in the chair with the TV all static and the music went all spooky and gradually got louder. I went out of the room and one the other side of some steel bars I saw that thing with the really huge knife and the red cone jobby on it's head just standing there looking at me. Freaky! http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/smilies/cwm31.gif Anyone seen this part?

I've only played shareware Hexen II. It was a good little game.

The first Aliens vs. Predator was damn scary. That game had the creepiest lighting of any game ever. It was 100% dynamic lighting all done with point-light entities, most of which were in these little light fixtures with coronas. There was coloured lighting everywhere, over-used in fact. Any of the lights that were fixtures were shootable and some levels could be made just about entirely black. Only thing that would have made that scarier would be shadows but they didn't exist in games then unless you used precompiled lightmaps like Quake.

On top of all that you couldn't stay in one place too long or the aliens would hunt you down and slaughter your ass. Very scary game.

YESS!!! i love that game, but the spider factor is almost too much. Any games that have small enemies that resemble things in our environment that make scratching sounds an the dark and hiss ....headcrabs in HL are scary too, especially in the vents or buried in the sand

March 14th, 2003, 09:35 AM
I hated the headcrabs in the sand!! Little bastards!

HeXen II is an awesome game methinks. I love the weapons and the castle levels. There was one part in HeXen II near the end of the game when you return to Blackmarsh.... and you fall through a floor into a room full of spiders. Now that freaked me out. There's also the other part in the Chapel where you have to jump into that web shrouded hole. You can see spiders below in the web but you can't kill them from above. That was a bit creepy.

Alio: Another Tannihilation fan! I've never found anybody else who has liked it before http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/smile.gif Starcraft is still my favourite strategy of all times.


Blood scared the hell out of me in places - like in the morgue there's all this blue lighting, and severed hands start breaking out of the corpse shelves and scuttle towards you, leaping to grab your throat. That's one scary little enemy. The spiders which jump onto your face and blind you in Blood2 were horrible too - they had huge shiny red sacs where their legs connected.

AVP (first one only) really scared me in marine mode.

Doom/2 used to really scare me - I remember Unholy Cathedral (Doom1) as being scary, with the burning runes all over the walls etc,

Aliotroph?
April 3rd, 2003, 01:15 AM
Yeah, the first AvP is the scarier of the two for sure. Something about the weird lighting engine and the way the aliens find you if you sit idle.

Total Annihilation is one of the best RTS games of all time! It's a lot better than newer games like Red Alert 2. The engine is fast, responsive, and smooth. The maps have lots of variation. There are a huge variety of units, good balance, and wicked multiplayer support. And the music is awesome to boot! Too bad Cavedog didn't have so much success with TA: Kingdoms. It was a good game but nobody liked it anyway.
