heh....Monster Party for NES used to scare the hell out of me when I was younger...Not the whole game but just the 2nd half of the 1st level. If you've played it you know what I'm talking about. God do I love that game.

Pretty much the whole resident evil series. I don't like scary games at all, even though I LOVE HORROR MOVIES, so have never played anything real scary like silent hill or whatever else is real scary.

This isn't a scary game, but there's one part on Bionic Commando that scares the hell out of me. Everyone knows the part where you enter the enemy's communication room and contact your superiors, using your own comm unit.

You can also wire tap the enemy's conversations and listen in on their movements. After the enemy ends the transmission you can simply break off the tapping and leave the room. It's not always that easy; sometimes a loud siren will go off and two gaurds with bayonets will charge you as reinforcements parachute down on you. It's a complete surprise when this happens and the siren blaring stuns me everytime! @_@
Haha, you're right on it!!! My ass lifts of my sofa when that happens!

I would have to say the scariest was Alone in the Dark. The game that inspired the RE series. Played it with a friend of mine until we finally beat it. Opening the closet in the kitchen and the zombie is standing there waiting for you scared the hell out of me. Between the weird camera angles and the music - the game was just plain creepy. Other games that some of you had mentioned:
Sinistar - "Run! Run! Run! ......Roooaaar !!" Talk about a feeling of dread!
Maybe its just me but did Tecmo's Deception scare anyone? Running thru that old castle with adventurers chasing after you was a bit scary.
Games to get -
System Shock 2 - I should have bought this when I had the chance.
Silent Hill, Clock Tower and more. Thanks for the recommendations all!

My vote goes to silent hill. My friend let me borrow it and I used to play it in the dark with the stereo on, giving me full surround sound. Very scary. I recently got the soundtrack for part 1. Downright disturbing.

Want to revive this thread, as Fatal Frame 3 is coming out
http://www.the-magicbox.com/0503/game050316g.shtml
Is it just me or that this sequal doesn't seem scary to me? What makes a game scary? Real, based on true story, the series seem to progress into something more fictional, I still feel the first one is the scariest.

I always wanted to play Daydreaming Davey when I first hear about it. I played it for the first time yesterday....DAMN IT IS SCARY. I'm glad I didn't lay down $50-65 back when it was new!

Fatal Frame is the scariest that I've played, but I haven't played the second one yet.

"Earthbound Zero" scared me, I was in the cematary, then the music stops and
plays that song letting you know that you are about to be in a fight. THAT
SCARED ME!

Well, everybody is writing this, but Resident Evil 2 scared the bejesus out of me :embarrassed:
I haven't played it in a while... but I remember this part where you thought everything was safe.. and then you would walk through the door (and then the screen would show the door opening) and there were dogs in the door.
I lost it then
I think Resident Evil 4 is scarier then the rest of the series, some of the moments when there are like 14 guys on the screen and you are using you very last bullets trying to shoot the ones you can, awesome.
As for the rest...
Silent Hill
Eternal Darkness
Fatal Frame
and the ever popular Alone in the Dark series
Thank god for games that support Dolby II...scary as hell in eternal darkness when the volume is turned all the way up and those sanity effects start happening... @_@ @_@ @_@

Karaoke revolution for the Xbox. hearing my friends try to sing "kiss me" or "do you beleive in love" is the scaryest thing i have ever witnessed in my life.
actually, it was one of the funniest things me and my friends have ever done, aside from 'Karate Box'. one of us would get inside a bix box with no eyeholes, and then we would fight each other and slide down the stairs. whoever was inside the box would fall over a lot, so fighting was nearly impossible as you got pummeled by a pillow.

No doubt, the scariest moment in video game history was when Capcom violated section 107 article 1 of the Video Game Constitution, which states "If ye exit said room filled with baddeth guys, they will not pursueth you"
So, as my clutching-his-side Leon Kennedy stumbled out of the room where that Nemesis-type thing was, hoping for the safety and security of the second floor police station walkway, the thing breaks through the frickin' wall and slaughters me. Made me jump more than when the girl got hit by the bus in Final Destination.
Best gaming moment ever for me.
Anyone else have any violations of my Video Game Constitution to report? ;)
