Call Of Cthulhu, Dark Corners of the Earth.

Doom 3 gave me a few jumps, but my first STALKER experience, man, THAT was a thrill. The sewers man.... :o The labs were creepy to be sure, especially in one of the more prominent mods, but the sewers get me every time, no matter how many times I go in there. Every game, every mod, I always pause before going in there. Yantar at night can be pretty freaky too.

There's a whole bunch of moments in games for me so in no particular order

Call of Cthulhu dcote
AVP 1 & 2 (Played as a Marine - I truly do hate the motion tracker sound)
Resident Evil 1,2&3
The Hotel in Bloodlines (Possibly the Creepiest level I've ever played in any game)
S.T.A.L.K.E.R
and last, but by no means least, System Shock 2

Morrowind....

Sudden attacks and especially unexpected lighting flashes with loud sound makes me jumped out of my chair everytime...:huh:

Doom 3
i tried it when i was 10, and honestly....it scared the living crap out of me
it wasnt the monsters nor the fact that every place i went it was either dark or smeared in blood...it was 2, 3 meter tall bastards with chainsaws in a small space with red lights and steam:dead:

Alien VS Predator for me, played as a Marine, I never could get used to those Aliens, scaring the heck out of me. Dropping from the ceiling, or running along the walls, seemed to be everywhere,lol

I think for the long term fear was playing as a Marine in AVP 1 & 2. You never knew what was going to happen in those dark corridors! This is a different kind of scare to the FEAR type scare that made the hair occasionally go up on the back of you neck!

THere are different types of scary I think.

DOOM 3 never had the scarieness effect, accept at some unexpected times. AVP series had more a dreaded feel to it than Doom 3.

Just my 2 cents.

F.E.A.R
that was pretty scary
and Resident evill 3 was also scary, especilly when zombies came just out of nowhere in front of you.

Alien vs Predator 2 was CRAZY scarry as the marine !!! It seemed wherever you went... the place would be nicely lit... then..... "They cut the power !!!" :o

I remember one set up they did really well. I was walking down a hallway that had strobeing emergency lights going along with spraying mist... when suddenly the cieling came down in front of me and this gnarled shadowy shape that looked like one of those alien critters came down with it as the lights went out.... I pretty much soiled myself and emptied about three clips of ammo before I discovered that it was just a bunch of cables and pipes that fell in a pile. Then the bastards attacked me from behind ! :o

I'll have to agree on AVP2, never played Doom 3

BioShock too, there were some parts of it, like the part at the start when Mr. Bubbles impales the Splicer on the big drill, that was awesome

OFP, Operation Flash Point:rock:

Dusk, rain, creeping along in a forest with the volume up high in the head phones.

Suddenly I´m dead, the loud cracking sound of AK from my right makes me jump of my chair, looking to my right. But theres only the wall of my living room, no trees, no rain....
After playing OFP for some 6 hours straight it was 0230, I was hungry and tired, and... dead.
I still love that game:yep:

I particularly detest the conveyer belt. There I was "Hmhmhmmm, nice little ride here" only to be dropped into a pit full of facehugger eggs right at the end. Then the radio says "The stasis field is weak, dont get too close to those things!" Then they started to open.

Needless to say, I could've got a gold medal in the Olympics for sprinting.
