Forum Overview :: Gamerasutra :: Has there ever been a game with mechanical consequences for screaming in terror?

[quote name="Halloween Harry"]My first thought was a Left for Dead-type game, where screaming prevents your character from moving or attacking, but dramatically slows the enemy you're targeting. So the scarier the individual monster, the more it would behoove you to scream at them. I think it could be a good desperation move when cornered or surprised, because it would both help you survive a mauling and get your teammates' attention. I also think it could be incredibly annoying if someone on your team was screaming at the wrong times or at the wrong things. Basically I want to be that incredibly annoying person.[/quote]
