Amnesia: The Dark Descent

This is seriously one freaky computer game. Yeah, sorry guys, its only in computer format, but on the upside its cheap. Basically the whole premise of the game is you play a character who has absolutely no freaking idea who he is. Well, he does remember his name but that's pretty much all you get. Meanwhile you're wandering around this dilapidated castle that's falling down around you and trying to avoid running in these freaky creatures that you never get a good look at unless you die. Oh yeah, that's the other fun thing... YOU CAN'T FIGHT BACK. All you can do is run your ass off while screaming like a four-year-old girl and hope that the thing isn't fast enough to follow you. Throughout the levels you have to complete different tasks in order to keep going through and when you do complete them you regain some sanity. And another thing I forgot to mention, if you stay in the dark too long you start going crazy, but you have limited light supplies and if you stay in the light you're easier to spot. It's a real no-win situation, yet its nonetheless fun. Don't believe me? Just watch this highly entertaining video of someone playing it.



Doesn't that just make you want to turn off all the lights and play this game in total darkness? Yeah... Me either.
