Silent Hill 3
In 1999 Konami unveiled Silent Hill, its first installment into the survival horror genre. In the first entry we follow Harry Mason as he explores an increasingly hellish town in search of his missing daughter. The second edition ignored the story of the first with the protagonist searching for his wife instead of his daughter. Fans of the original cried out and because of this what began as a game grew into a cult following. Konami had big shoes to fill, and the good news is Silent Hill 3 doesn’t just follow the story of the first game, it returns to a more violent, bizarre, form of horror that will make you afraid to sleep at night.

Manhunt
How much violence and horror can you take? For the true hard-core thrill seekers, like myself, Manhunt will quench your bloody desires. Many movies and games are used to disturb our psyche or delve into an uncharted dark side, and Rockstar games heartily feeds those wanton desires. The developer of Grand Theft Auto delivers its darkest, most gruesome game yet. An original 3rd person action game that puts you in the role a death row inmate forced to run a deadly, sadistic journey at the whim of a psychotic cinematographer. This intense game promises to deliver horrific, graphic violence all along a backdrop of grisly scenes that truly have cinematic flare.
