With October approaching, it's time to play some horror games! Horror is my favorite genre. It's chock full of emotion and creative game design. It's a genre that has to continuously reinvent itself to avoid getting stale, which leads to dozens of incredible games.

The games I'd like to play for the first time are:

Silent Hill 2 - I was holding out for a proper remaster for over a decade. It's finally here, but it's $70! I'll probably have to bite the bullet.

Resident Evil Village - I've been meaning to play this for years and already own it! On sale for $10.

Resident Evil 4 (Remaster) - I played the original but not the new remaster. On sale for $20.

Dead Space - Just bought this on sale a few weeks ago. It looks really good! On sale for $12.

Alien Isolation - Alien is one of my favorite movies of all time, so I should really play this.

Now for some recommendations:

Resident Evil (REmake) - This is where you start if you're new to horror. Absolutely iconic, and not too scary thanks to its cheesy B-movie script, which can be humorous. On sale for $5.

Resident Evil 7 Biohazard - This game was a true return to form in the horror department. Absolutely loved it. On sale for $8. Genuine steal.

Inscryption - Not very spooky. Has a fun card game and a lot of intriguing ideas.

Are there any games you're looking forward to playing?

Do you have any recommendations?
