That sounds exactly like dead space, be awesome if it was that scary 
fixād
Wait a minute, Doom 3 & Dead Space were supposed to be scary? Why wasnāt I told this? Iād better go and beat them again, because I seemed to have missed something.
Agree with Dias. Though Iāve never played Dead Space Iāve seen a ton of gameplay videos. Doom 3 however was about as scary as a mouldy lemon.
ā¦Probably equally entertaining as well for that matter.
Most people that I have heard from didnāt actually laugh at that part. They were quite freaked out. I have to admit to feeling a little bit uneasy at that point, though I wasnāt āscaredā per se.
when i first played that through that scene with headphones, I didnāt find it particularly hee-larious. I registered it as cliched, sure, but mostly it just came out of nowhere and made me :what:-face a bit.
Iām just saying, that part I specifically remember laughing out loud at how little sense it made.
Was there a point to that? Is it plot related(I didnāt bother with the PDAs)? Does DoomGuy have baby-phobia or something?
It just came out of nowhere, and ended up being just another strange tease with no real consequences. Just like with Fear, whenever I saw someone run around a corner I figured it would be just another scripted sequence plot thing like being knocked out at the beginning of the game, or to disappear into a cloud of black shredded toilet paper.
Itās like dying with the vita chambers in Bioshock. When I realize thereās no consequence for not responding to those āscaryā scenes, that little hud flicker just became an indicator for me to not give a shit.
Wait a ticā¦ ADSLā¦ VoIP boxā¦ and a standalone answering machine?
WTF?!?!
OT:
Personally, I donāt āscareā easily (think horror flick scareā¦ my wife when pissed off doesnāt count). What thrills me most in a game is suspense, which for me is more about the pace and plot of a given scenario. HL1 got me going in a few spots (until I played thru enough to memorize it)ā¦ Iād bet BM will be immersive enough to do better. :fffuuu:
On the subject of HL and itās games being scary, it never really SCARED me. Just made me jump. Although I must say in Ep2 running from the Guardian did make me feel incredibly uneasy and freaked, probably because I just hate being chased. And plus I never looked back so when I DID get hit I would go āHOLY FUCK NOā
I remember the first time I played half-life. I was at an internet cafe when I decided to give it a try.
I spent like 20 minutes walking around not understanding what the game was aboutā¦ and suddenly BOOM RESONANCE CASCADE!
I got scared shitless. I was like āOh my God Oh my God did I do that?!ā
I also remember being very scared in Xen. I was crouching in some corner with health at 2, and I could hear all those alien sounds and the controllers making those shrieksā¦ I really felt I was alone, lost in an alien dimension.
No game has ever been able to make me feel as half-life did.
You were. You were in an internet cafe.
Iām not sure how to react to that
HL wasnāt really scary for me. Iād jump every once in a while when a Headcrab jumps out of nowhere at me. God, I hate Headcrabs :meh: .
Lol when I was a kid I was terrified of headcrabs.
Black mesa will have the most engaging gameplay if hes scarry you dont play it let us to entertain us :retard:
When I was 25 I was terrified of poison headcrabs.
shudder
I flipped out and had a shooting spasm when I saw a headcrab zombie for the first time. :ā(
I got scared when I was 3 and a was goofing with my fathers game a half life for the first time and a headcrab jumped at me an I was like :fffuuu:and:ā(
