I remember playing a game called Clock Tower for PSX a number of years ago and it scared the shit out of me, and i just got it a couple days ago. That game will freak you out. There is Clock Tower II, but i haven't played it.
What are some of your favorites of the Survival-Horror genre?

Play Clive Barker's Undying in the dark with a good sound system. It scared the shit out of me.

Resident Evil 1 may not be the best, but it has special meaning, it started everything... I love that one, I remember every scene. And it wasn't too over the top, the idea of being alone in a mansion was cool. Got a little wacky at the end, just like movies tend to do... but the start was just so classic.
Never played Clock Tower, and I never really got play much of the Silent Hill games...

I should really rent Silent Hill 2 for PS2 soon... I almost never play my PS2, it's just collecting dust, plus, like I said, I need to get into Silent Hill. It looks good, I just haven't been able to play them yet.

No it didn't (start everything)! The Alone in the Dark series did on PC several years before RE1!
The guy who made them just got a "lifetime achievement" award at some games ceremony in recognition of his creation of the survival horror genre.
It may be because I was younger when I played it, but the AITD2 is the one that scared me most.
I do like the "helpless" feeling you get when playing Resident evil though...

Resident Evil I, and II [these kick ass, nice games... good little puzzles, nice violence, good "jumping" scenes, were you jump outta your seat sometimes, good sound effects and decent music for mood setting, graphix are good too for the ps1].
Silent Hill 1 and 2, are just amazing, so scary, wicked graphix for its time[s], especially #2. Awsome story lines, awsome beasts and characters, good violence, VERY disturbing, VERY scary and VERY nerve wracking. 100% garunteed reccomendation here...

The original Survival-Horrors must be 'It came from the desert' I and II from Cinemaware (you can download them here).
Those were really scary when they came. Haunting violin music and all.

Sorry, I always played "Boulderdash" on my spectrum, not rockfall :(
There were some mad games of this type towards the end of the spectrum's life. There's one in particulr that was brilliant, I'm trying to remember it...
I'm pretty good at these (Rockfall clone) games so if you're still stuck in a few hours, email me the rom and I'll get past there for you :)
