I'm making this post after playing a game a friend gave to me which seemed to be a normal tactical shooter he insisted it was a awesome game SWAT4, i gotta say going into it i was thinking oh yeah this is good and the first level was standard arrest these guys and secure the guns.
come the second mission you had to apprehend a serial killer after its believed he has a girl kept in his house, the briefing doesnt bode well for the mission as it describes in detail what he does to the girls he takes, on to the mission i decided to take the stealthy route and go through the garage the garage sets is a indication that the rest of this mission isnt going to be too pleasant for you, glass cages filled with dead rats were piled high in this room, i go through a door and break into his bedroom which is plastered with newspapers stating his killings and pictures of the ones he killed and to quote the black guy in the squad "holy shit man ive got a bad feeling about this", you then go into the room adjoined where there are more newspaper clipping s on the walls and theres mannequins and papier mache masks hanging from the cieling, and on a filthy bed is a woman restrained wearing what seems to be a porcelaine mask though it isnt the one your looking for, you then have to carry on into what seems like a makeshift tunnel into a iron box underground, as soon as you go through into the iron room you see the killer holding a shotgun to the head of the crying woman whos covered in blood and filth, i didnt kill the serial killer though i was doing shit by the books.
The only thing that made this worse was the fact his mother who was upstairs when the killings had happened kept repeating hes a good boy hed never hurt a fly. that mission scared me more than any horror game has in the last few years, probably cos murderers are real and monsters arent and that scenario has probably happened somewhere.
So what games that werent supposed to be scary scared the beslubber out of you.
