Quake II is scary
hygraed \| 2:16 AM on 10.21.2008	11 comments

I'm playing Quake II for the first time, and either I'm just a huge pussy or id did a very good job of making this game frightening. I'm walking down a corridor and I hear a growl from somewhere and I seriously jump in my seat. I probably need to man up, but goddamn, id knew how to make a video game back in the day.

Killer7 was scary but not in the traditional sense. It fucked me up for like a month.

Quake 2 was brightly colored and all about showing off what OpenGL could do. (Hence the nice looking sky boxes and all that thar pretty 'splosions)

I dunno, call it personal preference but it didn't really scare me all that much.
I think the sequal (Q4) did a better job of those twitch/jump reaction moments.

But, yes, you're being a pussy. Man up and beat it so you can at least move on to Quake4 :P

What.

The only series that can be considered "scary" is the Silent Hill series. I've played Quake 2, and it was more action than horror
