Can a racing game be scary? [Discussion about scary non-horror games]

[MrWhitticus]

Man, Valve is great with this kinda thing

The Half-Life franchise is a good example.

True thing plus if you really dig deep with the Portal series there's some pretty creepy 'sleepless-night-inducing' stuff that goes on behind the scenes, such as the 'You can hear Ratman screaming behind walls' theories.

Also consider 'Off by Mortis Ghost' for Creepy Non-Horror of the Year Award
