Lol. How could you forget the only 2 actual horror games from last gen? Namely Amnesia and Outlast.


True, but these were indie. 

It's been a while since we've actually had a "big" horror game, with retail release and all...

Now, right at the beginning of this gen, we have The Evil Within, Alien Isolation, Until Dawn, Silent Hills annouced. That's quite a lot in such a short period of time.

I would regard horror as one of the few genres that doesn't need a big budget.

They just need decent graphics, great direction and good level design. Nothing for which you need a big budget. And as we've seen, AAA horror games tend to be more about the spectacle and story, rather than actual horror. It almost seems that it's harder to make a good horror game, the higher the budget is.
