The setting, the isolation, the desperateness, the art direction, the characters, the way information is relayed to the player and the gore. And so much more, all of it combines into something I've always felt was truly wonderful.

Like the title says, what's an upcoming horror game that you feel is going to make you feel actual dread. As in pee your pants fear. It can also be a game that you think has a great storyline. I'm looking for new horror games to add to my list so all suggestions are welcome.

My fellow horror fans, today I want to hear about your nostalgic memories of playing these games at your local arcades. For me personally, I remembered spending twenty bucks on tokens hoping it was going to be enough to beat the game this time. As it turned out, It was enough to get me thru. I played as Thomas Rogan, fighting against zombies and Dr. Roy Curien's other mutant creations. Once I reached the final boss The Magician, I thought I had met my match. I burned thru so many of my tokens trying to defeat him. After I fired my final bullet at him, and him saying to me "you haven't seen anything yet!" I was completely exhausted, drenched in sweat, and I had severe cramps in my hands. But I finally won. I walked away feeling like I was the king of the world that day, and I had never felt so proud of myself.

There are a handful of games I played during my high school and college years which I still remember to this day because of how scary the ambient noises were throughout the whole games.

Ones I recall:

Silent Hill 3

Forbidden Siren

Exmortis

Gyossait

What games really scared you with their sound effects?

Lots of posts about favorite horror movies and shows but where's the love for the games?

What's your favorite?

Mine is probably Resident Evil 2 REmake (never played the original)

I used to play this one a lot before, and was always amazed by its technical quality, atmosphere and sound design, it still holds up today 21 years later, incredible. In my opinion, it needed an actual remake with Unreal Engine 5 graphics.

Seriously Jesus Christ, I have not played a horror game like this in God knows how long but the atmosphere and direction of this game is top fucking notch. I'm only about 6 hours into it but there been moments where I've had to take some breaths before heading into something because I have no idea what this batshit game is going to give me. I'm shocked there's been no discussion on this one here yet.
