Amnesia: The Dark Descent vs Doom
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!
Doom
Doom follows the footsteps of its revolutionary predecessor, the game that had pioneered the genre of first person shooters. Returned to the limelight with as much gore as before, this new and greatly enhanced version of Doom guarantees hours after hours of fun either in single player (with multiple game modes) or multiplayer mode as players mow down endless waves of demons with insanely destructive guns in intense, fast-paced and heartpounding action. The multiplayer mode in this game is a whole lot more entertaining as players can now opt to play either as Doom marines or as demons in an epic arena-styled clash to the death.The best part though is definitely the Doom SnapMap, a level editor which allows players, for the first time ever, to easily create their own adventures and even game modes, and share them for all to enjoy. This literally offers limitless gameplay for both the creators and the players alike.
The Doom franchise is one of the most iconic shooters of all time and have paved the way to the many epic shooters that we get to play today. This latest resurrection of Doom definitely pays homage to the timeless classic and also give modern-day shooters a nod of respect as to how far they have come. This is certainly a game you'll want to get if you're a fan of frantic shooter games like the Serious Sam franchise.
