Amnesia: The Dark Descent vs Thief 3: Deadly Shadows
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!
Thief 3: Deadly Shadows
Thief 3: Deadly Shadows is the third installment of the popular, stealth-based action-adventure game, Thief, where you play as Garrett, the master thief that is rarely seen and never caught. With a large arsenal of thieves' tools to use, clever AI that will act on their suspicions and track evidence as well as fun, non-linear ways to approach an objective, the gameplay itself is incredible, as you might expect. And of course, you'll need to use whatever means necessary to sneak around, steal for the rich to line your own pockets and do other thief stuff. However, fate apparently has other plans for you and for Garrett...That being said, the Steam version of the game seem to be riddled with plenty of game-breaking bugs, making the game hardly playable even to the most ardent of fans. So, if you can get a CD copy of the game, then by all means... after all, it's a great game. But if Steam's the only choice for you, then you might want to just save up and buy something else instead.
