Horror Games

Something that can honestly make you feel scared, not cheaply scare you. the difference between Resident Evil and Silent Hill. Resident Evil has the idea of limited saves and ammo to be scary but it mostly has HEYLOOKITSADOGBESCARESCREAMREALLYLOAD moments, while Silent Hill (from what I have seen/played of it (IE not much)) is a game where you don't have to kill much as it's more you wondering whats going on. I can tell you that I was scared more from a LPer screaming at the spiders more than anything that RE has ever had in it.

Freddy has a mix of both. You wonder where/when they will strike, so you're on your toes, but you also have the jump scares that make up 97.99% of all horror games (and movies).
