There's some freaky dismembered corpses in Zork Nemesis. In fact, you have to take severed heads and put them into a machine to make them say things.

The hands in blood used to scare the shit out of me along with the spiders. So much so that when I played it as a kid I sat indian legged on my computer chair. I still do that out of habit.

The part in RE2 when you're just waitin' for something to come through the two way mirror and it finally does.

Walking around "dark silent hill" and hearing your radio go apeshit but not seeing any monsters at first in SH2.

theres a bit in blood where you can climb an elevator shaft by jumping up some outcrops, jumped to the top, saw a large nest of spiders, paniced, fell to death.

damn you spiders!!

In the first Silent hill, i was playing at the age of 7-8, and with my dad. We got to the school, and i got freaked from the music, so my dad let me turn the sound off. but if you remeber, for the piano puzzle,.......ITS ALL ABOUT HAVING YOUR SOUND ON!!!!!! so we sat there for about an hour trying to figure out if there was a pattern, saying incredibly stupid things like, "well maybe the swan went through some black tar?"

Friking sound puzzles.....*sigh*

The fight with Psycho Mantis in MGS 1 freaked me out when the game system "turned off". There's a part in the back of your brain that knows it was scripted because the part of your screen that normally says "video" in digital green letters now says "Hideo", but you're mostly hust confused with hairs standing up on the back of your neck. A genius moment in gaming.

Also, the Arsenal Gear section in MGS II was scary in its own way, as, at two am, slightly drunk, and with the lights out, it really feels like the world around you has turned into a giant computerized lie.

Mantis's Face in Twin snakes, it was sespecially icky.

In Resident Evil 3, after you hear Carlos on the radio in the RPD building then go downstairs. then out of fucking nowhere BOOM! Nemisis comes crashing through the fucking window with a rocket launcher.

Resident Evil 4: Everything I have done so far, which isn't much.

Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Re-Deads and Wall Masters. Those fuckers scared the crap outta me.

Silent Hill 2: The music. For some goddamned reason, the music creeps me out.

Fatal Frame: The slow, sludgy, very Japanese pace to the game. Very similar to The Grudge, which scared me, too.

Huh, my scary moments aren't really from scary games :/

Chrono Trigger: The part where the leg-eating machine eats Lara's legs. I sucked at that part when I was little 'cause I would freak out, "NO DAMN YOU LEG EATING MACHINE! AIEEEE!"

FFVI: Terra's scream. It just kinda... gave me the heebie jeebies.

Castlevania something: The giant ball of naked people was really creepy.

And the damn axe-wielding babies from Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

HOLY SHIT, i remember that, i got killed by it and stopped playing for a week cuz i was so freaked out.

the part in MGS where mantis reads your memory card. I rented metal gear solid a bit after i bought Castlevania. And hearing mantis go, "SOOO YOU LIKE CASTLEVANIA?" completely freaked me out.

I didnt get the same effect playing twin snakes, "SOOO YOU LIKE SUPER MARIO SUNSHINE?"

also, any part in siren where you sightjack the monsters and you see yourself standing there with your eyes closed.

That's just the sound the air around her makes because she's flying really fast.

Anyway the first few times scizzorman stalks you in Clock Tower were pretty creepy, mostly because you hear the snipping on his giant scizzors long before you ever see him. Then five minutes later you beat the game

Whoops, someone delete this post.

I was playing We Love Katamari the other day, and out of nowhere this giant gorilla knocked out my ball. I have to admit that made me jump for a second.

Guitar Woman · #42

Metroid Fusion was scary as hell, with the SA-X stalking you everywhere. And then at the end when you had to escape the space station and it jumped out of nowhere and started to fight you, that really freaked me out.

ArrowX · #43

Wow I agree with you

Metroid Fusion is one of the few games to acctually do a "stalker character" well.

when i was alittle younger playing Fallout 2, a random encounter had me enter a time warp portal into the Vault 13 in Fallout 1.

After roaming around the empty and quiet vault , I fucked around with something, (must've been the waterchip) then the game told me i basically triggered the reason why the main character in Fallout 1 headed out in an adventure in the first place.

Creeped me the fuck out

just THINKING about it

Guitar Woman · #45

If time paradoxes scare you I suggest staying the hell away from Chrono Trigger

Mr. Vagiclean · #46

They don't scare me now thanks though

Chrono trigger eh? unheard of i better clear way

Jeff The Ninja · #47

Alone in the dark when I saw the first monster outside the window. Then it burst through and i yelped. Then I was in a room and a Zombie opened the door when I was standing by it. i jumped. That whole game made me jump.
