One of the hardest emotions to genuinely create in a game though is that of fear – movies have it easy, as the director can always ensure that the experience is the one intended. For something like a first person shooter it’s considerably harder as the player is essentially free to look, move and act as they please. Cutscenes can help in this respect but they’re non-interactive and thus the player is removed from the event. But some do manage to pull it off, one way or another and to that end, we bring you the Top 10 Scariest PC games.
It’s no surprise that Doom has made the list, with STALKER, surprisingly, also earning a spot. That one I agree with… it’s had me clenched to my seat a few times already and I am only about five hours in! This is a solid top ten, but it could have been a top twenty, easily.
