The Spike VGAs Premier This Friday, What Horror Games Do You Want To See Revealed?
For the most part, the Spike VGAs don’t accomplish much outside of being a big commercial for several upcoming video games. There’s a lot of awkward celebrity hosts and annoying back-patting, but it’s also one of the year’s juiciest sources for major video game reveals. Last year’s event introduced us to Alan Wake’s American Nightmare, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, among others, and the year before that brought us Mass Effect 3, Prototype 2, Skyrim, and Batman: Arkham City. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 has already been confirmed to be at the event, alongside BioShock: Infinite and The Last of Us, but I’m sure there’s plenty more we aren’t aware of yet. So I have to ask: what horror game would you most like to see unveiled at the show this Friday? Let your voice be heard after the jump!
Not content to simply vote? Why not post your choice in the comments too, so your voice can be extra heard? While I’d love to see all these games (and more, including Del Toro’s Insane!) get a big reveal at the Spike VGAs, I think the game I’m most looking forward to is Alan Wake 2. I’d very much like to see what Remedy does next with that series.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
