[QUOTE=Lollipoopdeck;40839385]A good game with disturbing monsters is Cry of Fear.[/QUOTE] idk if i'd call the monsters in CoF "disturbing." the monster that you spend the most time fighting is literally just Michael Myers with a hammer, and most other ones are just variants of The Grudge or a zombie with a bucket on his head. in Silent Hill, the monsters are scary because they're relevant; they represent and embody primal fears and psychological reactions. they feel implausibly fucked up because they're designed to play into fears that everyone has. granted, i'd rather not get attacked by a zombie Andre the Giant with a book for a face, but it's not exactly the kind of thing that i imagine lurks in the darkness of the human psyche.
Scary games don't scare me. :( [editline]30th May 2013[/editline] Amnesia made me a bit tense but I never jumped or got scared and I feel like I'm missing out. [editline]30th May 2013[/editline] Same with horror movies.

Meh just more jump scares with a rather lame looking monster and feeble atmosphere. I've had more and better scares from reading good horror novels than any game like this have given me. I'm still waiting for my reimagining of [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_Tower_%281996_video_game%29"]Clock Tower[/URL] -- that had the right balance and only needed to be refined.
