i need a new game, but have a few requirements :D

im bored of all my first person shooters i need a new one. Something with the action and guns and vehicles of crysis but with the horror and jumps of dead space or cryostasis, it needs be to single player and nothing online, preferably quite new with stunning visuals and a long storyline.

Think you can find a game that fits the bill?

Horror FPS's are hard enough to come by, much less one with vehicles. Farcry 1 maybe. Half Life 2 is decent in the horror department, especially in Ravenholm. Clive Barker's Jericho is a good FPS horror, I have it for sale in here: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=96893.

Fallout 3 or S.T.A.L.K.E.R.


There's really no new, good FPS games. They're all third person action games (e.g. Prototype and Overlord II).


Edit: Ooo, yeah, Jericho too. That's too horrorific for my blood though.

I must wholeheartedly agree, it may not have the "jumps" or "scares" of something like Dead Space, but by God it's one of the best games I've played all year.

(Despite the whole audio breaking bug, which is actually easily fixable just a pain)
