| Am I the only person who doesn't find any RE game scary at all. They won't even make me jump. All the way from the original RE to RE5, none have scared me. But silent Hill makes me shit my pants |

| REmake is scary...
And I don't think SH is as scary as some say. I think Amnesia is the only game that scared the shit out of me, and of course Eternal Darkness. |

| I think SH is scarier than Eternal Darkness, but ED is a much better game than any of the SHs. SH is definitely scarier than RE. I've had a few jump scares from RE and I always say that RE is not about real horror, like many fans believe. _________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |

| They really aren't all that scary. The only part that still makes my heart jump is when Nemesis bursts through the window in the Precinct.
However Mercs in both games (especially in RE5) can be pretty heart pounding if you have an amazing score but very low health.
Not so much in RE4 since I have already obtained the highest possible score I could ever get, so dieing in Mercs isn't as stressful. Plus high scores are easy in RE4. There's not too much strategy.

| @Nite: ED isn't really scary, but that game fucks with your mind.
@Ravior: I don't think panic is the same as scary. |

I'm scared when I'm panicking. 
However, Super Salvador is, without a doubt, the scariest thing in any video game. There's just no comparison. I haven't seen anything scarier than him.
Reapers are scary, but for the wrong reasons. They're scary because they're cheap and just love to only expose their weakness when they're a few cm away from you (that's how it always happens), and also have glowing weak points that make aiming at them very difficult.
By the way, I noticed that the first Reaper you encounter in the campaign doesn't have a glowing weak spot. Why aren't all of them like that?

| Super Salvador can suck a cock when it comes to Scissorman from the PS1 game Clocktower. _________________ Leon Fanboys Please Click Here Wesker is officially dead: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/100/1006931p1.html | NiteKrawler wrote: | | Jamesy wrote: | | Fine you win NightCrawler |

| I thought both Nemesis and Pyramid Head were scarier than Super Salvador. |

That was only scary because of the point and click controls. If it was traditional I think it would be pretty easy to escape.
He was terrifying though. |

| All of the games have some scary moments, but on the whole, they are not that scary. I will say that RE4 and RE5 actually have some of the most chilling scenes in the whole series, at least from my perspective. |

I actually think so too. If the older games are scary, than RE4 and 5 are definitely scary too. But none of them really are, so . . .
But that's not the point. They're fun! Every single one (although I'm having serious trouble with the how the Outbreak games control) Who cares, fans? |

I LOVE YOU FOR THIS POST.
What parts of RE4&5 did you find chilling?
Me, when I saw the first regenerator on my second playthrough, I had accidently sold my thermal scope to the merchant, (I was trying to sell my other scope.) So, I shot the first regenerator through the window where it was lying on the gurney. OK, that was more of a wacky moment than anything else, but hey. |

I may be forgetting some, but:
RE4:
1. The part where it implies something was watching the Police officer when he was peeing. Follows this trope: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NothingIsScarier
2. The maggots crawling inside the skulls in the first house of the game.
3. The female Genado that was pitch forked to the wall near the beginning of the game.
4. The Bella Sister that attacks you in the Shed in Ada's mission.
5. The sight of the dogs that you encounter when you backtrack after defeating Del Lago. (which is really fun to do)
6. The sound of the Novistadors
7. Everything involving the Regeneradors.
8. That hedge maze . . . -.-" *shivers*
That's all I can think of right now.
I don't really remember many "chilling" parts in RE5. Mostly disturbing (not to me. not after being exposed to it so much) parts. If I can think of any I'll list them. |
