Dead Space vs F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin
Dead Space
Dead Space may not supposed to be much of a horror game at first (it was touted as a thriller mainly), but it certainly ended up that way. Featuring a third-person shooter gameplay, the game casts you in the role of Isaac Clarke, an engineer in a massive spaceship stranded in space that's falling apart at the seams. That's not all, the ship is filled with hideous Necromorph monsters - alien-infected crew members - that just love to jump out at you at the most unconvenient moments, startling you at every chance it gets from seemingly every vent, collapsed ceiling, cracked floor etc... well, literally the full 360-degrees. The game can be a tad bit linear but that is exactly what enabled the developers to control almost every aspect of the game from start to finish even with you in it, giving you scares that will make you jump in your seat... and sometimes out of it.Dead Space made its name as one of the most thrilling shooter game that guarantees to slowly but surely drag you into its incredibly immerse and terrifying world. If you love a game that has both action and a generous dose of scariness, Dead Space is the game you'll want to play.
F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin

Michael Becket whose routine mission turned into a fight for survival as he and his squad fight tooth and nail against the wrath of Alma Wade.

The AI in this game has been enhanced as well, giving you the extra challenge you crave.Not to mention, if you're interested, you might also want to grab F.E.A.R. 2's major DLC, F.E.A.R. 2: Reborn as well just so you can have a complete story and fully enjoy this sequel.
