Scariest Moments this Gen

Trying to find the scariest games to write about from this generation is a bit like trying to squeeze blood from a stone. Suffice it to say, there's just not very many scary games out there, and those that claim to be scary (like Resident Evil 6, for example) are far from scary.

It's for their rarity that we appreciate genuinely scary games even more, and why we decided to showcase thirteen of the scariest moments in games we've encountered this generation.

There may never be another Pyramid Head to drag his oversized sword across the floor, but thankfully there are a few games from this generation that have managed to awaken our primal fears as well as the original Silent Hill games have.

Keep in mind that some of these games weren't even designed to shock and horror, but they accomplish it just as well as any game dedicated to survival horror.

Grab a mug of hot cocoa, wrap yourself in a blanket, and read on to discover the thirteen scariest moments in modern video gaming.
