Only horror game I've played is PT, I'm a huge puss when it comes to horror movies/games so I tend to not go near them

Phantasmagoria back in the day.
The Suffering on Xbox. First time I saw it I watched a friend play it for 2 hours, scared the living fire out of me with the creatures with knives walking on the ceiling and would scramble along the screen really quick just out of no where and the sounds, make it stop! Knife on concrete taps/scraps. No.
I want to play The Evil Within but I haven't yet. I like reading at night so i'm weighting the two against each other. Easily can spook myself with my imagination and yet I read reddit's /r/nosleep so go figure (hey it's great stories!).
For genuine scariness I would vote for the Silent Hill series. For creepiness and disturbing would be the My Creepy Diary series in mobile. The first episode was the best one but was unfortunately removed from the Android store due to the content.
Clive Barker's Undying
That game had amazing atmosphere. Graphically it is rather dated now, but the audio alone still manages to make me nervous.

He another game called Jericho that was pretty good as well.
Silent Hill. That opening gameplay was definitely creepy as fuck.
Alien Isolation and Amnesia in recent memory.
A soldier will fight long and hard for a bit of colored ribbon.
I didn't play many scary games but i remember being scared shitless on Manhunt because the character was sooo weak compared to the enemies and you were left with only melee weapons verusus people with guns a lot of times.
The other one i played was Siren Blood Curse but i can't remember much of the game. It was so long ago.
Dont get scared easily but my favorite horror games is
Condemned: Criminal Origins
Alien Isolation
Dead Space 1
Loved The Evil Within to, got pleasantly surprised as i had heard it was just alright
I like games with high tention like Alien Isolation that game is easily the best movie to game adaptation created.
Then the old ones like Silent Hill 2 and the re games to 4.

As a kid Friday the 13th NES. Creepy music and 'first person' looking in the house to find Jason, you'd turn a corner and he'd be there then start chasing you. Scary stuff for a 6-7 year old.
Teenage years Eternal Darkness but I knew alot of the stuff going into it. I did finish the whole game. Sad we didn't get the full trilogy that was supposedly planned.
Semi-adult/recent Condemned. Fuck. That. Game. Probably the first game I had to just stop playing cause of sheer ambiance. I haven't played anything truly creepy since having kids, mostly just gory monster stuff like Gears at the worst.
I haven't played many horror games, so mine probably isn't as scary as some of those people mentioned here... That said, Doom 3 was the scariest thing I've ever played, and I the longest I could keep on playing without needing a switch to a different game was around 3 hours.
Hated Amnesia because you can't fight back. I'd rather fight than be chased helplessly. F#ck that game.
My partner wants me to buy the new VR Resident evil. LOL.
no.
It actually wasn't even mine. My friend who was living next apartment over at the time bought it to play and keep at my house as he couldn't get a 360 at launch. I tried to play it one night after the wife went to bed and I just couldn't do it. I was probably 22 at the time (married young yes I know).
Another one I remember now is Halo's the library first time going thru. Something about the flood and that creepy music made me jumpy. Flood isn't even scary now that we know more about them.
To be honest, I'm the same. I CAN afford it, but can't justify shelling out that kind of bread for the VR, Camera and move etc for about £500 when I barely find time to play the games I have now. I've also just bought a house so my bank looks wrecked enough.
Back on topic, Resident Evil 3 also makes my list due to being chased all game by something that you essentially cannot kill. STARS.
