RE: Amnesia killed the horror genre

Goo! So much ego in this thread! :p

My 2 cents on all the arguing...

Dead Space isn't scary. It made me jump a few times, but so did Metal Gear Solid. I'm not saying it isn't fun. I played my first play-through on Zealot to increase the scare-factor, but was ultimately disappointed with the game's horror element. Gore doesn't equal scary. Having said that, I did enjoy the game enough to beat it a few times, but I eventually sold it. It's not a bad game, but I wouldn't call it a great game. There are a lot of things about it that I personally find lame. (the story, the failed scariness, the push-over difficulty, the reliance on gore, the dreadfully distasteful ad-campaign, the EA logo on the box :p) The only way I could recommend Dead Space to anyone is if they loved the new RE mechanics and wanted to play a decent rip-off.

And on the topic of Silent Hill! The only real Silent Hill games are the ones created by Team Silent. I love Silent Hill and tried to like the post-Team Silent titles, I really did. But the new ones just don't taste the same. That distinct Silent Hill-creepiness is gone and isn't coming back I'm afraid.

You couldn't play a Led Zeppelin cover band for me and convince me that it's really Led Zeppelin.
