Doom 3 Collector's Edition

$99.00 Est. at Amazon

from shopping.yahoo.com
doom 3 is a great first-person horror shooter game.
from www.amazon.com
it's about as scary as any other game in the horror genre, but nothing that has kept me up at night with insomnia or that has made me afraid to look around the next corner in the game.
from www.amazon.com
i highly recommend this game to anyone that likes horror movies and games...it has more than a few places that make u think...i was stuck in one part for a good hour but then i got through it...
from www.amazon.com
it's an action oriented horror fps that you can't just run balls to the walls through.
from www.amazon.com
let me point out that doom 3 is a sci-fi-action-horror game!

Fatal Frame 2

$44.00 Est. at Amazon

from darkzero.co.uk
"a reasonably interesting survival horror game that sadly chose a slightly more action-based rather than shock-value approach to the genre.
from www.amazon.com
i do like a good horror game, but long ago grew tired of the cheap tactics employed by the likes of the resident evil series.
from www.amazon.com
first off let me start by saying that i have never really been a big fan of survival horror games.
from www.amazon.com
its pretty sad when we live in a day and age when they are making better horror video games than horror movies that are coming out in theaters these day.
from www.amazon.com
the fatal frame franchise is unique in the survival horror genre.

BioShock for Xbox

$22.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it's like watching a horror movie (one that is actually scary) each and every time you play the game.
from www.amazon.com
i wasn't much into shooters or scientific or horror games but i've seen enough of them through my gaming experience which spans more than 12 years, however, i gave this game a try since i wanted to
from www.amazon.com
this 2k game is a must have for the shooter and horror enthusiast.
from www.amazon.com
basically bioshock is equal parts an action game, survival horror game and a stripped down role playing game in the vein of deus ex.
from www.amazon.com
the design of rapture is familiar to any fan of 1940's architecture, but it is also alien in all that horror that has happened there.

Manhunt for Xbox

$36.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
this game will startle you at times and it does perfectly combine stealth, action gun play and horror.
from www.amazon.com
finally, a realistic, graphic, and well-concieved horror stealth game for the xbox.
from www.amazon.com
it's stealth, action and horror all in one ruthless combo.
from www.amazon.com
they have found and intriguing little niche, by blending both stealth and survival horror into a graphical 8mm snuff film fest.
from www.amazon.com
i thought it could have been so much more than just a stealth horror mission.

Halo 2

$23.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
for instance, i didn't think "little house of horrors" could've made its way into a halo game, but it did, and it was awesome.
from www.amazon.com
i love this game a lot but getting dumped in a room by the flower from little shop of horrors with basicly a pop gun is a bit of a jolt.
from www.amazon.com
i'm not kidding,it looked just like audrey ii,the plant from little shop of horrors & spoke like the elder god from soul reaver.
from www.amazon.com
some of the confusing levels half way through the game, hated some of the reswapning qualities of the game and that huge green plant thing (still looks like audrey to me from little shop of horrors.
from www.amazon.com
but instead, about midway through the battle for the universe, a giant plant that looks like audrey ii from little shop of horrors shows up.

Half-Life 2

$13.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
from chapters that play like a horror game with headcrab zombies and monsters, to wwii like fighting in bombed out buildings.
from www.amazon.com
due to the hl2 xbox price and the horror stories i'd read about having to be online to use the pc version of hl2, i decided to go for the xbox version.
from www.amazon.com
so you have a wonderfully intelligent mix of political and sci-fi (and sometimes horror) themes.

Halo: Combat Evolved

$14.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i waited for this to come out for the pc for about a year (the horror when i heard it was x-box only!) but it was worth waiting for.the negatives are this game is way too easy not any difficulty
from www.amazon.com
it is a beautifully created world with both action-adventure, suspense, and horror.
from www.amazon.com
if you can't handle horror or surprises (like surprise attacks), you don't want to buy this game.
from www.amazon.com
it is a mix of anything from rock, to classical, to techno, to horror...
from www.amazon.com
i like the action & the horror

The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay

$17.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it is the closest to any sci-fi horror movie to date and has a style that is unmatched.
from www.amazon.com
the game even has a horror-kind of theme in some levels, where you are in the pitch black and there are weird zombie like things and strange creatures after you, sometimes sneaking up behind you.

from www.amazon.com
at times the story mode w/ the horrible voice acting can get annoying, but the suspense and horror while playing the game, all make up for it.
from www.amazon.com
still, if it weren't for these little bits and pieces of horror, the game would tread dangerously close to straight action, with no respite.
from www.amazon.com
furthermore, the game provides alot of oppurtunties early on to use it, (including a training stage).also, i guess i must be more liberal in my beliefs as like horror or violent movies i tend to
