    Bioshock looks fun, but as for horror? Eh, I don't know. I heard Dead Space was just a bunch of "pop out of nowhere and scare you" game and it's way to gory, and said I didn't want it to gory. F.E.A.R looks fun and scary and Condemmed looks like that also. I might look at F.E.A.R a little more but I just don't know. Keep e'm coming because im still not 100% sure.

    left 4 dead and left 4 dead 2 are good zombie apocalypse multiplayer games, resident evil 5 is fairly new and resident evil: operation raccoon city is coming out sometime soon, fatal frame 1,2, and 3, there would be so many more good titles if your pc was working... (these games are all different systems you have) Alan Wake is good, Alone in the Dark, Alone in the Dark the new nightmare(PS2), Curse the eye of isis, Dark Messiah(Hell Knight), Deadly Premonition, Doom 3, ghost hunter, siren, The Darkness, and The Suffering... that is all i could think of at the moment

    Haunting Ground for PS2. very psychological mixed with some good ol' pop outta nowhere scares.

    or System Schock 2 for PC if you can find some way to play it. It's like Bioshock, except more of a horror game than an action game.

    Fear is also on the 360.

    Doom3 is worth your while even if it is old. You can pick it up for around $4 used, or at least my brother did. He got 2 of them. :3

    As Far as scary PS2 games go, if you can find "The Thing" based on some awful old horror movie its actually got a half life feel and some interesting gameplay mechanics. Like leading NPCs with a sanity meter that drops the more messed up stuff they see.

    The Thing is a sequel to John Carpenter's 1982 movie, which I hear is actually very good (it has an 8.2 on imdb) which is a remake of some awful old horror movie

    From hearing all of this that has been said so far bro, I have a few things that I believe would be perfect for you.

    1) Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Bite the bullet and get it. From what I've read so far in this thread, it is the best game for you.

    It's NOT gory
    It doesnt have the best graphics, might be able to run on your computer, check Can You Run It to see if your computer is good enough. Don't mind if its below recommended, just go for above minimum for your system.
    It's psychological horror, not really jump out and scare you. It leaves you on edge none stop, and you have none other weapons than your wits, your legs(run), and the shadows.
    It's super interactive.
    One of the most realistic and downright frightening games I've ever played. Completed it once, and never did again, too damned creepy.


    And Bioshock really is a good addition to the Horror genre. It scares the living hell out of me for sure :S Lot's of dark and eerie stuff in it, plus a few jump moments, and I didn't really notice too much gore, but not sure entirely what your limit is.

    Either way, I believe Amnesia is a must for you, bro. I'd say bite the bullet and pay the $20 to get it. Besides, if you cant run it or don't like it. It's only $20 compared to twice as much or more for other games, such as Silent Hill.

    And if you can't run it. Keep it around and wait till you decide to upgrade your GPU!

    So yeah, I vote Amnesia for you.

    Well he said no PC games but since Amnesia is so big on display...

    I'd recommend "The Void"!
    But I also recommend a strong psyche. And not the kind of "startle-and-fear-proof" kind of psyche you need for Amnesia.

    I mean real fricking psychological stability.

    Because in this game you won't just get dipped into horror, you will get drowned in it.
    And not the scary kind... well also some of the scary kind, but mostly the creepy, depressing, stressing kind of horror. You'll be constantly under pressure and it will grow over time. And everything you do will have consequences.

    It's best not to get into it too much but this game sucks you in pretty good.

    Also you should be immune to grotesque(not gory) display of "anatomy" and sexual themes.(hint hint, game has naked chicks in it)

    The Void on Steam

    Tbh, the video on the steam page doesn't do the game enough justice, but it gives you a rough estimate of what the game looks like.

    I'm probably reading this wrong but... this.. post makes.. no sense. IMDB is purely movies. Meaning, the movie has an 8.2/10, not the game.
    Edit: I didn't realize Carpenter's The Thing was a remake.. especially considering the original was called "The Thing from Another World" Lmfao...

    The game looks absolutely horrid, as almost all movie-to-game tie-ins are.. It was made 20 years after the movie (which I thought was pretty damn good compared to a lot of 'horror' movies of the time.)

    Fatal Frame is kind of freaky... Maybe you should check that one out! It's been a while since I played it, but I remember it being pretty scary.
