Among the many genres that exist in the video game industry, horror games are perhaps the most popular because they generate a lot of adrenaline, and honestly, who doesn’t like to feel scared, it is to some extent addictive. 

There are games that seriously could be classified as insomnia-provoking and even heart attacks due to the amount of terror they handle. Fans of this genre have them as favorites and have had reeditions because of how good they are. 

Enter here to know the best PUBG outfits. On this page, you can find that and more to make your experience much more enjoyable and interesting. You can also find the best tips and advice for you to improve your level. 

These are the best horror video game sagas in history. 

Death Space 

A futuristic horror game, this already starts off pretty well. The objective of the game is to take minerals because in this future of the year 2508, humans are looking for resources on other planets and obviously there are enemies. 

The setting in space makes it much darker and as it is an unknown element you don’t know what to expect. The monsters are quite scary and the sounds they make get into your bones and there are too many jumps because they come out of unexpected places. The emptiness of space makes it even more terrifying. 

This game was released on October 14, 2008, for all consoles, and has had several sequels, because it has been quite successful. It has inspired more space based games, and its premise was quite innovative, as this was only seen in movies like Alien. Sure to keep you on the edge of your seat 

Outlast 

This game is inside an insane asylum, and this time you are a reporter who has to enter this institution and investigate some illegal experiments, apart from entering at night and the perspective is in first person, then you can imagine the things you get to see.  

This game came out in 2013 and is inspired by the famous MKULTRA experiment of the U.S. government of mind control. As the game is at night and you go with a video camera you see absolutely nothing, and obviously, if something comes out you have to run at full speed to avoid the horrors you are seeing do not reach you, then even messes with your physique, because you end up dizzy. 

They have sold more than 15 million copies and the saga is composed of two games and the third one is being prepared, and it would give closure to this successful series that they say could become a series or a film. It is a great success considering that only one and a half million dollars were invested in the design and realization of the game.

Fatal Frame 

It came out in 2001 and has produced about 13 games, but only 5 continue with the story, the spinoffs have also been very successful, and like Outlast, it is already being considered for the big screen. 

It’s based on various Japanese superstitions, so they combine people’s many fears and materialize them. That’s obviously appealing because it makes you very curious to know what happens or what it’s about.  

Outside of Japan, it was very successful and that’s the beauty of its success. Because the design and the gameplay is so good that, even if you don’t know the legend, you die of fear and you can’t stop playing. In Japan, it has a rating of +18 because of the graphic scenes. 

Silent Hill 

This saga is already considered one of the best in the history of video games, its success has been so great that it has been taken to the big screen. This game is considered one of those that laid the foundations of the horror genre in video games. 

The first game was released in 1999 and when it came out it was not expected to be so successful. Its graphics and gameplay were praised, but what blew everyone’s mind was the atmosphere, the fog became a very important element that gave it that element of mystery. 

There are many references to the king of horror Stephen King, the creators have mentioned that the author is part of their influences and that the game is based entirely on the books of the American writer who in turn is a fan of the games and appreciates the tribute. 

In terms of sales, it is one of the most successful games in history. They have completed more than 9 million sales, and the games have been re-released several times. The first one, which is a classic, is a reference, but the second part is considered the best horror game in history. Horror was undoubtedly redefined with Silent Hill. 

Resident Evil 

The original seed. The game came out in 1996 and the game has sequels, movies, comics, series, and everything that fans can imagine because this is undoubtedly the most successful horror franchise in history. It has been studied even in college classes, for its design and gameplay. 

It was reported in 2021 that it has sold more than 120 million copies worldwide, only the first two, at launch, sold about 11 million. Immediately it was a strong blow, and Capcom did not expect it, in fact, it almost did not come out, because several of the directors never ended up liking it, it’s a good thing they were convinced. 

Many analysts in the world of video games, not only have it as the best horror game but as one of the most influential in history. It was one of the first to receive the adults-only rating and this helped sales a lot because people wanted to know what was going on. 

This game has influenced even outside the gamer world. The Walking Dead is based on Resident Evil, and this was confirmed by the creator of the successful series, Robert Kirkman. Capcom can’t get enough and year after year they remake and improve the original games, and plan new ones, it seems that Resident Evil will never end, because the games get better and better.

Google Meet outage disrupts work calls, online classes across India

Google Meet faced a major outage across India, stopping users from joining meetings and prompting widespread complaints on social media.

A major outage hit Google Meet on Wednesday, leaving thousands of users across India unable to join or host video meetings. The disruption forced many to cancel work calls, online classes and scheduled interviews, triggering frustration across offices and campuses.

Users report widespread access issues

According to data from an outage-tracking platform, over 1,700 users reported issues by early afternoon. A majority complained that the website itself was unresponsive, while others flagged server-related problems. A small number reported poor video quality. Many attempting to log in were greeted with a “502, that’s an error” message.

Social media flooded with complaints

Soon after the outage began, social media platform X saw a surge of posts from users seeking clarity on whether the platform had gone down nationwide. People shared screenshots and asked if others were facing similar trouble. Some tagged Google’s India handle, urging a quick fix.

One user wrote humorously that their long- awaited interview had to be cancelled because the platform stopped working. Others noted that only certain members of their organisation were affected, adding to the confusion.

No official response from Google yet

As users debated possible reasons behind the failure, several pointed out recent disruptions across major digital services globally. Google has not yet issued a statement regarding the cause of the outage.

The incident comes barely a week after parts of the internet experienced a massive breakdown linked to Cloudflare, raising concerns over repeated digital service disruptions this month.

Cloudflare outage disrupts global internet access as major platforms face errors

A global internet disruption on Tuesday evening impacted major platforms such as X, ChatGPT and Spotify after a Cloudflare issue caused widespread 500 errors.

A widespread disruption hit several major digital platforms on Tuesday evening after Cloudflare experienced a technical issue that resulted in global service failures. The outage restricted access to platforms such as X, ChatGPT, Spotify and gaming services, with many users encountering 500 errors and repeated “try again in a few minutes” prompts.

Users report widespread 500 errors as services struggle

According to the company, a surge in unusual traffic caused errors across Cloudflare’s network, affecting traffic routed through its systems. The Cloudflare Dashboard and API also malfunctioned, and several platforms dependent on Cloudflare struggled to load. Even outage-tracking website Downdetector was impacted.

The internet infrastructure firm had planned maintenance at data centres in Tahiti, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Santiago in Chile, though there is no clarity yet on whether the scheduled activities contributed to the disruption.

Services begin to recover as investigation continues

By late evening, access to multiple websites was gradually restored. Cloudflare confirmed that engineers were working to stabilise services while investigating the cause of the traffic spike.

Cloudflare said the unusual surge led to errors across its network. “We do not yet know the cause of the spike in unusual traffic… We are all hands on deck to make sure all traffic is served without errors,” the company noted in a status message.

Past outages bring attention to web infrastructure dependency

This is not the first time the company’s systems have faced problems. In previous years, outages in 2019 and 2022 had disrupted thousands of websites globally.

The latest incident comes just weeks after cloud service disruptions at other major providers, underlining the growing impact of internet infrastructure failures on global businesses and public services.

Organisations such as New Jersey Transit and credit rating platform Moody’s also reported interruptions due to the Cloudflare issue. Shares of the company were down in pre-market trading following the outage.
