We've all been playing Dead Space 2 all week at the offices, and the game has everyone asking the same question: What, exactly, makes a video game scary? In the video below, G4's courageous employees give our responses to this important question:
(The answer, clearly, is "ghosts.")

Wow. That was tedious. I enjoyed hearing people talk about what it was they actually found scary in games, but the abortive humor was just unpleasant to watch.

That camera angle in Dead Space. Your whole back side is a blind spot and I hate being crept up on.

i don't really play horrer games, but the only time i've ever got really freaked out during game was at the end of AC2 when you re in the vault and the lady God thing is talking yet she staring right into the camera. And when I play through that scene my room was pitch black, dead silent, and I was home alone. so when it was happening I literally had the thought is she talking to me, why is she not saying his name, is some type of greater being trying to send me a msg, is this really happening. It was some freaky stuff I actually jumped up and hit the lights then she said Desmond and I was like oh thank God. I m not crazy

I simply can't play horror games because I play them in the dark to avoid ruining the experience, therefore making the outcome somewhat wet and yellowish

Zombie bears in Red Dead Redemption. I already hated bears in the normal game.

F.E.A.R. 1, Condemned, Dead Space, Dead Space 2, Manhunt,Any Silent Hill. Those are the best horror games.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent isn't just scary, it's horrific. It's like trying to find the light switch in your creepy basement for five hours.

When the first Resident Evil came out I was 8 and it scared the crap out of me!

The only decent survivial horror is Amnesia: The Dark Decent.
Dead Space 2 is an action game.

Probably the scariest is the one that follows you after you've stopped playing.
It's the fear of the unknown and knowing that, inevitably - it will get you.
And oh! What azrael1981 said.

Silent Hill 1-3 still stands as my favorite horror games, they did atmosphere perfectly. I also found in Alan Wake, the part with the TVs that flicker on and the eye that shifts left and right while you here a voice repeatedly whispering, "Die," to be creepy (if only there were more moments in the game like that - I liked the game but it could have been scarier)
Amnesia and Penumbra are games I'm recently playing and they're both freaking me out. The company that made both do survival Horror really well if you haven't played any of their games I recommend checking it out.
