Title says it all, who here plays SCP 81 and/or SCP Containment Breach?

If you do play them, do you rank them as a better game than Dead Space in terms of tension and scare factor?

**purplefood**

They made games for that?
Oh christ...
I'm not even sure I want to find out about that...

I haven't played them, but I've seen playthroughs, and they seem to be a hell lot scarier than Deep Space.
Dead Space, imo, is not scary at all. Startling, but not scary.

Well, after being stuck in a dark room with the shadow man and the sculpture I will not be sleeping anytime soon...

I heard aboutt hem, but never found them.

Also, dead space isn't a horror game. It's an action game.

**RatBot**

Never played Dead Space.

SCP-087 is kinda scary, but not too bad (I assume that's what you're thinking of, as SCP-081 is a virus that causes spontaneous human combustion, and that wouldn't really make much of a game, but 87 is the stairwell no one ever comes back from).

Containment Breach was pretty scary, for a game, I suppose.

**Happygrunt**

Haven't played it, but I kind of want to so I can experience the "blinking" mechanic.

Amnesia is probably one of the best survival horror games ive played.

**Melissia**

Dead Space has a third game?

Yeah (We knew it was being made but we first got real info about it at E3). They've already announced drop in drop out coop, combat roll, and a cover mechanic.

**Melissia**

Oh great, another mediocre cover-based shooter.

That...is extremely accurate.
People, if you want to play a proper sci-fi horror game, just play system shock 2. Dead Space already ripped a few things off of that game already anyway.

**mega_bassist**

I've watched a friend play it, and it's pretty intense. The blinking mechanic makes it that much scarier haha

**SilverMK2**

Looks interesting
