I definitely enjoyed the 1st episode on the Xbox.

Episode 2 got good reviews but lost ground on the surprise factor. If you haven't played the 1st one, you should have a really good time ;)

Got to Chapter 7 before I had to go to bed, I can honestly say I almost pissed myself, I was to lazy to turn the lights on in my room as night fell and before I knew it I was playing in the pitch black with my head phones in. Dad came in to say good night, saw I was looking at the screen and walked over and threw a fake punch at me that came from no where!!! I couldn't see anything behind the lap top and this object just flies at me, my friend on skype said I screamed so loud I gave him hearing problems.

Overall I love the game, its challenging and scary, if its not the necromorphes coming at you its random sounds and such that spook the living crap out of you, I was in the kids day care/school area of the facility and as I walked behind the stage a giant sun dropped from above and hit the ground, bout threw the lap top across the room!  :cry This game is just so awesome

Want a scarier game?

Amnesia: The Dark Descent

If you can survive the whole game (~6 hours) in one sitting, in the dark, by yourself, I will change my in game name to whatever you want.

It's 20$ on steam, but it's so worth it (if you want the experience and bragging rights to say, I finished Amnesia).
Dead Space 2 will seem like Hello Kitty Island after you finish Amnesia.

Oh, and you have no weapons, monsters kill you in 1-2 hits, you're only form of protection is ... nothing.  :)

Dead Space 1 gets an 11/10 on the creepiness factor. I'm a little girl when it comes to scary movies/games though. Dead Space isn't so much scary as it is just spine chilling creepy.

I just downloaded the demo...

...So far I've dropped my cigarette into my lap and didnt notice until it started burning, and everytime My furnace kicks on I consider hiding under my bed. 

Maybe I'll write a review once I stop shaking and regain my composure and mental stability.

But I'm prolly sleeping with the lights on tonight. :confused:

 :lol Wussies.  :P

<--Finished it. (I have bragging rights  :D)

Although I'l ladmit, the whole game was suppose to take ~6-7 hours. It took me 2 months because I could only play a little bit before going bonkers.

Atmosphere. It's like describing the feel of water to a person who has never seen water before. You have to play it to "feel" the scare. Obviously, playing at noon with the shades wide open, and all your friends in the room isn't going to be scary. But play by yourself, at night, with headphones on (sound is a huge part in Amnesia), with the lights off. That's how I played Amnesia 95% of the time and it was truly a remarkable experience (and pant pooping). Try the demo, 100% guaranteed you'll be hooked.

Amnesia, the only game I've seen make a grown man jump in fright....
That game is down-right frightening to play in the proper atmosphere. You're expecting something the whole time, but it's when you think you're use to it they get ya. Took about 7 hours to beat, but that was very pro-longed 7 hours. :P
Just watching the trailer again (I remember the part well) and someone walked in the room...bit of a jump. It's the things you can't see that are most frightening.
