Everyone check out this new game called, "Contagion" by Monochrome Games. Contagion is a Cooperative Zombie Survival Horror FPS game built on a heavily modified version of Valve's Source Engine.

Outlast: Let's Play (Entire Game with Crazy Reactions)

This is the best horror game I have ever played. This character is an everyday guy trapped in a nut house where all the inmates have taken it over. I am this guy. All you can do is run and hide. This is one of the only games I'd encourage people to watch because it is very cinematic and entertaining to watch someone you know freak out.

The experience is similar to watching someone in a horror movie and screaming at them as they make every cliche stupid mistake in the book. Enjoy! Skip to the last minute of the first video to get a sense of the terror I feel when playing this game.

FTL: Faster Than Light Game Tutorial Series

FTL: Faster Than Light is one of my top picks for the best game I've played this year (regardless of when it came out). I've put together a series of videos that should give you an idea of what the game is like and how you're supposed to play the game.
