Just booted up Stalker again after a month's hiatus. What happens to me just as I'm about to walk into the first room after my save? A freaking semi-invisible zombie demon with a tentacle mouth pops out of nowhere, slashes me twice and kills me. Didn't help that I was wearing earphones with sound turned to high either. First time in a long time where I felt my eyes go wide, heard my mouth gasping and my heart skip a beat. I subsequently closed the game after that. Will probably play it again when I can get my friends surrounding me during broad daylight lol.
Ever had one of those moments with a horror or action title and which game was it?
Ever played a game where you had an "OMFG *Heart Attack*" moment?
Silent Hill 4. I peeked to the corridor from The Room
" I HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH'd through the goddamn Penumbra from the start to finish. And Bloodsuckers in STALKER. FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU WHAT LAYER OF HELL SPAWNED THAT MONSTER OH MY GOD WHERE CAN I HIDE FUCK FUCK FUCK "Omg is Penumbra really like that? I bought the complete pack and I've been meaning to play it. I guess I should learn to be a man first >.>
" @Kblt said:Once I got into a locker room, decided to search for stuff. THEN SOME UNHUMAN THING JUMPED ON TO MY FACE. I alt+f4'd like a motherfucker and my heart was racing."

Definitely had moments like that in Stalker myself -- also the first Fatal Frame got me quite a bit (tape recorder part especially)....I guess I let psychological stuff get the best of me.
The moment where a huge skinless Snatcher face suddenly swoops into the screen in Act 2.
A lot of things in STALKER reminded me of the wuss that I am. Which is why I stayed on the surface most of the time. But THAT bloodsucker thought the same. I had a feeling something was up when I saw a few bloody corpses in that hut but I certainly wasn't expecting that thing.
In BioShock, I was in this icy room, so it was hard to see. Anyways, I was looking at something, and when I tried to move and back-up, I couldn't for some reason. I turned around to see what was in my way, and there was this splicer just standing there, pressed up against me, staring at me. I did what I think would happen in real life: I screamed and beat him to death with a wrench. I kept hitting him over and over even after he was dead.

A couple of Doom 3's closet monsters got me in a really bad way. I had a fully rigged PC back then with a pair of Seinheiser headphones and I'd decided it would be extra fun to play the game in the dark.
" Also the snowmonster in ski-something. "Ski Free it was called. I still have it on this PC.

Normally that would scare me shitless but for some reason I turned around and thought "O hai." and shot him in the face. It strangely amusing in morbid way.
Now that we're on the subject, what other games for the PC are freaking scary and gets under peoples skin (Stalker didn't do it for me :( )
Although it may not look like it, I found Aquaria pretty scary in parts. It's an indie underwater adventure game that plays sort of like Metroid." @Kblt: I will try to become man enough to do that then :P Now that we're on the subject, what other games for the PC are freaking scary and gets under peoples skin (Stalker didn't do it for me :( ) "
There are some parts of that with walls made of like organs and tissue and weird plant-like creatures trying to eat you, and then other parts where it's pitch black and you have to navigate while creatures are attacking you. It's fucked up.
There was this one part where I snuck up to what I thought was a harmless plant, and as soon as I touched it, it opened its mouth and swallowed me. The crazy part was it was transparent so I could see myself getting eaten. I was so startled I banged my knee against my desk and had a bruise for like a week.
So I won't judge this game based on the screenshot, I'll take your word for it and try it out :D
Doom 3 was good. The Gamecube REmake of Resident evil has messed up. Silent hill 2.
Fatal Frame. That game still scares me to this day. I won't even play it.
Unreal.
Remember that moment in the beginning of the game where you enter that complex and all of a sudden you are trapped and all lights go out?
I kid you not, i totally freaked out!
System Shock 2 does a good combo of creepy atmosphere and scares. A lack of ammo helps add to the apprehension at running into enemies, since most of the time you'll want to beat them with a wrench instead.
Admittedly I still haven't finished the game. I should try, but the Dark engine has its issues on newer versions of Windows.

" Eternal Darkness when you look into the bath. most people won't know what i'm talking about but to those who do will totally agree. never been so scared of anything in my life "I still need to get that game. I've been saying that for the last five years or so.
I have a few:
Fatal Frame- Holy crap was this game unnerving. I was moving the character around so slow, as to avoid being caught off guard, but it always happened anyways. Also, the Doll Room was KSJDBFBSEG
RE4- The guy jumping out of the fridge scared the crap out of me. I immediately jumped up, and turned all of the lights on in my house xD
Fallout 3- When I first encountered those giant red ants, I tried to get closer to one, so I could have a better shot. When I get right in front of it (my speakers were turned way up), he blew fire in my face, and I screamed like a girl and jumped out of my chair. It didn't help that my brother got to witness this, and kept laughing while my heart was pounding.
The ending of F.E.A.R. 2, when:

Aside from that...yeah...not even NEARLY the same.

While first playing Dead Space and I went into the bathroom, the lights shut off and I almost shit my pants but soon it was all about jump scares and it got old quickly.
Resident Evil One. The first time you walk through the golden hallway with the arrow head and one of the zombies gets up and starts sprinting at you as the terrifying crimson head. Check Mate. And or anything that involved fighting Lisa, particularity in the RE make which was very well done.
" Doom 3, that bathroom mirror thing really caught me off guard. "Yea it takes alot to for a game to scare me but I had just built a computer for that game and I was woefully unprepared I actually had to take a about a 15min break after that never before or after has a game caused me to pause it stand up and have to walk away from it as badly as that scene did it just came out of fucking nowhere and yes I was wearing headphones.
