    Silent Hill 2.

    I was playing it at night at a campground that was terrifying by itself at night. My roommate had gone to sleep and I was getting more and more scared as the night went on. I couldn’t find a save point and I was getting frantic just trying to save my game and go to sleep. I couldn’t find one after an hour or so so I said fuck it and turned it off.

    Cue a mouse eating something in our loft or some other small animal making it so I had to wake up my roommate telling him I need to talk for a minute to a real person before falling asleep. I didn’t sleep much that night and didn’t pick the game up for another 6 months.

    Played it in the day time with people in the room. Fuck that game and it’s still one of my favorites of all time to make me feel that way.
