: i hate resident evil, he isnt scary... it is so unscary i mean... take the
: zombies that you fight in first level. the walk to you as slow as the can
: and you have 10 minutes to reloud your gun and fire. mabey get a cup of
: coffee in the meantime while you wait. i mean i could go and take a shower
: and then come back and shoot the bastards without pause the game. but in
: marathon 2 for example, you start in a small room with windows surrounding
: you, you never know if there are drones out there and then you turn and
: see it, lots of fighters approuch and everything gets crazy, then when few
: scientists check the bobs the see that they where killed by a magnum
: bullet, not a pfhor staff... hmm strange :-) then you need to get all the
: stuff needed, and if you play this on TC then this will get alot scarier,
: i mean, i opened a door, lots of fighters came and tried to kill, also the
: bobs tried to kill me (strange :-) and i just shoot lots of shots out of
: my Magnum then i hit cover behind the door and reloaded, then i jumped out
: again and shooted another magazine of magnum bullets, and the fighters
: where moving fast towards me and i needed to shoot and dodge bullets in
: the meantime. that is scary. but i have to say, Resident evil is such a
: boring game that it actually scares me.

Good point... but notice that I sad he was scarier, but not he was scary...
I just remembered something, in "What about bob" in M2, when you jump down the ventilation shaft in the beginning, there are some cyborgs and figthers down there...Then, when you have killed them, there is almost complete silence...only a little water dripping sound! That was soooooo cool!!!!!
I mean, you never knew if there were more of these creatures coming or not.
That level is also the perfect place to get the bobs against you! *8)

Although there are many games scarier (like aliens vs. predator and Silent hill(1 and 2)) Marathon is pretty scary.
So forget my earlier post!!
