Halloween POLL- Scariest Turbo Game!!!
« on: November 01, 2007, 02:10:01 PM »
I went for Splatterhouse cause some of the evil things you encounter are kind of unsettling.



Drop Off! is a close second!  That game still haunts me in my sleep!

Axe II is the darkest of the bunch, but more in a depressing way than a scary way.

I'll say It Came from the Desert.  It's pretty eerie when people become antdroids, and the mini-game where ants eat their skin off while they scream for help is freaky.

Splatterhouse all the way. I can still get just a little creeped out if I let myself.

I'm definitely going to have to pick up a copy of that game. I have to at least get one FMV game. The only one I've ever played was Sherlock Holmes and that was at a display unit in Radio Shack at the mall.

I voted Drop Off! since that game will forever be associated with the creepy eBay woman. And that scares the f*ck out of me.

I voted for Night Creatures since it's such a frightening gameplay experience. The play control, that is...

Silent Debuggers,  no question.  Turn the lights off and volume up and creep about the corridors - ever so frightening!

Clinging fetuses, larval bloodsuckers, gut-puking zombies, boneless crawling lumps of skin, and a girlfriend who mutates and dies in your arms, how could Splatterhouse NOT win?

 :pray: Hellp.. Meeeeee!   :pray:


Legendary Axe II is in 2nd place for me.

It Came From the Desert hands down for me. Like Runin mentioned, the flesh eating ant stages are actually some of the scariest scenes I've ever witnessed in a video game, but most people don't play enough into this game to check it out. The Ant Queen was pretty frickin' scary as well with those big eyes and creepy voice.

Me and my bro have mentioned how the Turbo is a pretty good system for the horror junkie, especially since the PCE was released on Halloween!

By the way, how come Devil's Crush isn't listed!? I think Alien's Crush should go on there too.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Very true!

3x3 Eyes could probably be considered scary with all its gore and craziness.  Private Eye Dol's haunted mansion part too.  Oh, and Cobra II is pretty scary when you have to hide in a coffin and you hear your enemy's footsteps.

I voted for Spatterhouse because it is actually a scary game, haha.  8)
