Amnesia: The Dark Descent vs S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
Amnesia: The Dark Descent
Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a first-person survival horror game that is guaranteed to chill you to your bones. Play as the amnesiac, Daniel, who finds himself in a creepy castle with a haunting cry constantly ringing out in the background... the thing is the cry is getting ever closer and even you don't know that it is, you have no intention of meeting the creature behind the sound. Like the living nightmare that Daniel - and by extent you - is unfortunately experiencing, the game completely immerses you into a world where unseen horrors lurk in the darkness and only by hanging to your wits will you survive the encounter. It's not a "cheap thrills"-type of game, that's for sure!There is no contest when it comes to the creepiest game ever made - Amnesia: The Dark Descent wins hands-down. In some way, it's a great game to test your resolve in but be warned, there is no shame in walking away from this game if the going gets too horrifying for you. You won't be the only one to do so!
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is the first of a hugely popular post-apocalyptic-themed, first-person, survival-horror shooter which might have just amassed a cult following. Set in 2012, almost two decades after the worst nuclear disaster occured at the Chernobyl power station and around 6 years after a second explosion rocked the damaged reactor, causing various anomalies to ripple open and from them came waves of mutated creatures, deadly radiation and also rare artifacts that are somehow imbued with powerful anomalous energy... artifacts that many would kill to have.Since then, the existence of such artifacts have brought forth groups of "stalkers", scavengers who scour the cordoned areas around Chernobyl for these very objects... and in this game, you play as one of them.
The game has risen to acclamation partly due to the terrifying, nightmarish creatures that the game contains, in addition to the brilliantly immersive storyline and an incredibly realistic game environemnt that's modelled after its real-world counterpart deep inside the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. The gameplay is excellent as well. The game has accurate ballstics and combat mechanics, as well as a challenging survival aspect that is further made difficult due to the impact day and night, and the weather system has on the environment. There is also a multiplayer mode that can support up to 32 players.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl has just celebrated its 10-year anniversary earlier this year and as such, many aspects of the game aren't really up to scratch by today's standards at least. If you do plan on getting this game, you might want to download some mods to help improve the game somewhat.
