Pistol v Dinosaurs. What could go wrong.
I was going to play this, but I ended up watching a playthrough instead. I don't think I would have enjoyed the game.
Speaking of PSX; Any horror gems from the PSX-era besides the Resident Evils and Silent Hills I should be aware of?

The movie marathon is doable but I don't think I can clear 31 horror games in a month.
I just beat this recently! Really good and very intense. The voice acting was so stiff but overall it was a great game. Spacing out the sequels between other games myself but Im excited to tackle FF 2 and 3.Playing Fatal Frame, really feels like such a well thought out game. The atmosphere is extremely tense since you never know what direction an enemy might come at you from. The combat is a lot of fun and every single encounter I have come across so far feels distinct since most of them have been unique ghosts with their own movement patterns to track. A really inventive and intelligent game overall. Wish the voice acting could be better, but that's just something you have to accept with these older horror games really. Can't wait to try the sequels too, purchased them earlier this week.
This is really not going the way I wanted. I planned on streaming a looot of spooky games all of spooktober but I got really sick three weeks back and still haven't gotten my voice back (seriously, I sound like a crow coughing up my lungs most days and sometimes like an evil witch or something). That makes it kinda hard to stream the way I want to.
Anyway, this keeps me from playing the games I planned because I wanna save them for the streams! Ugh.
Sorry for whining, I'm just really frustrated.
I started playing DarkMaus today because I wanted something short to play. After a while I though that it might fit in here even tho I didn't think of it that way before I started.
It's a shameless Dark Souls clone but with a creepier look and way more "sinister" atmosphere. And hard, which I don't find Dark Souls to be. Or I guess that means DarkMaus is a bit unfair, the thing Souls never feels like. It's still pretty good tho, thus far.
So what do you think. Spooky enough?

Yeah I've finished it once now and soon NG+ too, and it's very obviously a one man project.Looks a bit like a flash game due to movement, but it seems like it'd have a fairly creepy atmosphere. Washing up on islands is never good for anyone.
crosspost from retroGAF,
for nights of horror,
i triple dipped and picked up a long box Resident Evil ps1 today =)
Finished Rule of Rose this morning.
That was a disturbing experience!
As said, It don't really have a problem with tedious gameplay for myself, I just truck on if there is something else interesting (like the story). But it makes me sad to experience it in an otherwise great game. It could have been soooo good! It's strange when no part of the gameplay is the least bit fun. In this game, the fights are terribly annoying (that collision detection...), as are the narrow corridors and small rooms. Everything between the cutscenes and text reading is just stuff you have to try to get past to get to the next part of the story or the next note, and that's sad.
But enough negative stuff! I really liked the rest!
I loved the creepyness, the "what the fuuuuck is happening!?" feeling and the slow and obscure way it all unfolded. I would have gladly replayed it to pick up on the details I missed if it wasn't for the gameplay being... well, not very enjoyable
I ended up checking the wiki instead and that cleared up a couple of things. It's a really unique story and they way they tell it is fascinating.
It's hard to recommend it due to the problems, but if fucked up stories are your thing you should probably give it a chance
thanks!Nice man, that long box is beautiful.
Finally arrived.

I forgot how terrible the credits song in Silent Hill 3 is.
Yes and I agree. I think creepy if my favourite word to describe it.Did you get the "good" ending?
Personally I don't find RoR very scary, it's more... melancholy? Weirdly confusing? Most of the time.
One more game to go in this series!
I had played both of the Forbidden Siren games before but this one is completely new to me. Gonna try to ignore that I've heard good things about this and go in without expectations. I don't want to be disappointed ;D
So if I only own a PS4 I'm guessing I'm shit out of luck on playing any Silent Hill games?
Tried my first playthrough of Resident Evil HD on PS4 yesterday and unfortunately I can't seem to get over the tiny inventory space and the,to me, ridiculous backtracking because of it. Also the fact that you can basically screw up right in the beginning when you pick up too many items before you unlock the room with the chest.
I love he atmosphere and he graphics are still very good, but I wish they'd modernized it a little bit when porting it to PS4. On the other side RE7 was a blast and did the inventory management right.
