13 Horror Video Games To Play Before You Die
2. Silent Hill 2
No horror games list would be complete without the crowning jewel in the collection. The cherry on the cake, the green on the dollar, the... tail... on the... dog... Silent Hill 2 is the ultimate in psychological mind-f*ckery, clashing together a desperate man searching for his dead wife and a terrifying town populated by monsters and fog. Faced with his worst nightmares transposed onto psychical beings, Silent Hill 2 brings James's neuroses front and centre, making players fight for survival of body and mind in the process.
The story of Silent Hill 2 is one that has had players hooked for over a decade, and prevails as one of the most intoxicatingly symbolic in gaming. Silent Hill knows it's what's inside that counts, and tears it from you one chunk at a time until you're left reeling at its revelations.
In short, it's just a really bloody good game, and one every player should add to their collection before they pass into that foggy good night.
