It's scary, it looks very good for a freeware game, and it does have some good physics but I didn't think it was very fun.

I played this back in the day. I beat it then but I'm not sure if they expanded so....

Does the game still end when you open that door and get hit in the head. The screen turns red and that's the end, or have they expanded?

I don't think so, atleast the last time I played this through. This is just a bit of a "tech demo".

No, I doubt they have. They are probs working hard on getting the comercial games out.

Yeah they're out. I'm contemplating getting them, the only thing keeping me from them(except for my trying-to-save-money) is the fear. That game creeped me out scared me over and over. But then again I did buy Condemned for the Xbox 360...

Yeah its got the fear factor going for it, this game, especially with some of the creatures, but its probably in the medium scare region, much more scarier games out there.

Yeah. Once you start seeing the monsters you aren't actually afraid of them(they look dumb).

They look alright to me, some of the ones seen in the commercial version look much better and scarier than the one in the demo thats for sure.

i never played a really scarry game. maybe AvP, but even there they managed to scare me only in beginning cause i didnt' know they spawn back in areas that were already cleared. later on... well i just did the Doom walk (backwards)

which ones would be scary then? with me problem is i find aliens and monsters interesting rather than scary. :P
