What is the scariest video game you have ever played?

Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl. That game is pretty much terrifying in parts.

How about some of the Silent Hill games?,they were simply f####d

I never really played that many games other than racing or sims. One of my favorites was Dino Crisis on the PS1 back in the day. That was the only game to ever make me jump when a velociraptor would jump through the glass onto you, or when the tyrannosaur would try to eat you in the office. That game had a great atmosphere!

Some of the scenes in the doom series gave me nightmares.

Although I've never played it, I've heard horrible stories from friends who have played Dead Space and Dead Space 2

Phantasmagoria had some pretty good stuff:

First time playing Doom..in the dark with surround sound.

This game was freakin scary! My kid brother and my "ex" watched me play it. It gave both of them nightmares.

(no joke)

The scene I remember the most was being chased by the haunted skeletons. They chase you through the map, you run and hide in the furnace room, and when you turn around, they jump at you and they melt.

The first couple of times through Silent Hill 3 gave me the creeps.

Did anyone play Thief Deadly Shadows on PC? well,it was either the last level or close to the end you were in an asylum,and the sound effects in there were bloody creepy I can tell you.

Great game,and I may play it again someday soon

NOTE - the above footage is not too accurate,they have obviously not configured their monitors very well,the shadows look washed out and should be darker,a LOT darker.

For me, Fallout 3 made my mind wander to bad places. Let's face it, being the sewers with freaking ghouls breathing heavy in the darkness as you make your way does raise some hairs on the back of your neck!

I have to agree,FO3 does have some disturbing moments,and yes,the ghouls sound bloody shocking,especially as you are trudging through a pitch black irradiated basement somewhere.Great atmosphere

Fallout 3 creeped me out just in walking around the Capital Wasteland; while it wasn't a one-to-one recreation of DC and the surrounding suburbs, it was still eerie seeing landmarks I'm very familiar with in that post-apocalyptic setting.

Hmm... I don't think I've ever come across a game that actually startled/scared me, but it may be that I'm not remembering, either.
