What games scarded the pants off you?
I mean, what really got to you. Made you jump back and gasp. I'm looking for recent and creepy and terrifing.
I liked Undying, it really had it's moments. Nosferatu is a bit dissapointing because of it's hack and slash momentum, but is very good visually. I generally go for the first person type view.
Can anyone comment on Silent Hill 3. I have been considering it.Thanks

Alien vs. Predator 2 plain freaked me out at times.
AMD Athlon XP 2700+
Asus A7V600-X

GeForce FX 5200 (256 MB)

FarCry
Played at night with the lights off and headphones on. Those lab creatures scared the sh*t out of me.
Chaintech 9PJL Appogee 800FSB
P4 2.8 HT

Doom 1, Doom 2, Heretic, Legacy
Obviously a few years ago...
I was about 11 years old when I first played Doom 1 on my old 486-DX2 66MHz with 4mb of Sdram, 540mb HDD, Soundblaster 16-bit, dual-speed CD-Rom and 2mb S3 virge 2D graphics.
Scary at night with lights off and headphones on.

The Suffering. hands down. even in the daytime. great story line too.

There is but one true king.......
System Shock 2
Some people are like Slinkies?, not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs...

The lunatic asylum/childrens home mission on Thief 2.
Easily the most pant stainingly frightening computer game mission ever created.
Oh and coming face to face with the t-rex on Monster Maze 3D when I was 8 years old.
;-D

"System Shock 2," defintely. Even hearing one of those phychic monkeys gives me a terrifying anxiety.
"From Dusk 'Til Dawn" has some change-the-drawers moments.
"Nocturne" is good, but not first-person.
"Dracula Resurrection" and "Dracula's Last Sanctuary" are like Myst but with haunting visuals. Probably not what you're looking for - very little action.
Happy Playing,
Bob
