    I've been a bit uneasy playing certain games, not because of the storyline or scary sequences, but more because of the environments and ambiance. (dark scenes, music, sound environments)

    The scariest part of a game for me was the mission Robbing the Cradle from Thief: Deadly Shadows. The whole thing was the ambiance, especially the sound effects and the music in the background. Chains, woman and children screaming, babies crying, moaning, sudden loud noises. Took me forever to beat the level too, because I could only play for maybe half an hour before I had to take a break from it, it freaked me out so much.
    Boy am I an unfunny ass.

    The Japanese version of Monster Party when I was younger, due to its art style and monster designs.

    Strangely enough, after playing that game, I've watched so many horror movies that later games like SH and RE don't faze me all that much. They may startle me every once in a while (especially RE with stuff randomly jumping at you), but the don't really scare me. =/
    Xenogears is the tragic story of how your whole life can take a crappy turn, just because you happened to see a lady in a wedding dress before her wedding.

    Resident Evil 2. It was the first horror game i played, and it was scary, especially the part where you fall through the floorboards and where the zombies hands grab you through the boarded-up windows.

    Forbidden Silence scared me a bit. So did Nightmare Creatures. I dont recommend Nightmare Creatures though as the game was pretty crap :rolleyes2

    I feel at home playing games like Project Zero and Silent Hill. They really make me grin.

    Silent Hill 2 ~ Zombie Rape scene ... OMFG, PH bloody rocks, but sitting in a cupboard watching that *shudder* can make you feel unsettled.

    Eternal Darkness does well with the freaky atmosphere. There's that one moment that scared the [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] out of me. It's not even an important moment, and it's completely optional. It only lasts a moment. Freaky. (SPOILER)At one point, if you check out the bathtub as Alex, the camera flashes a scene of her, dead in a the blood-filled bathtub. That was awesome!

    There has been a FEW moments on Resident Evil 2 that have startled me, such as (SPOILER)When you pick up the cog (at least I think it's a cog) and Mr X comes through the wall. That made me jump! . Moments on other RE's have scared/made me jump too.

    Resident Evil, but not because of any particular deftness in the game, just because I hate zombies. For actual terror, three things come to mind;

    Fatal Frame/Project Zero games
    Silent Hill games
    Ravenholm in Half-Life 2

    Shaq-Fu, I think that game is frightening enough.

    Eternal Darkness was one of the scariest game I've played. >.<
