Favourite scary bits from scary games

Vitriolic Rage · 11-04-2004, 05:18 AM

What scary bits are most memorable to you from games?
For me, the cat/body in the locker on Silent Hill 1 shits me up every time, even though I'm expecting it. You'll walk past a locker in the alternate school, and a cat jumps out and scares the hell outta you, then it runs outside and gets kileld by some little nasty thing, then you walk past the next locker and this dead body sort of flies out.
Made me go

"Bloddyhellmotherf**ker!"
The beginning of Silent Hill is good too, with the alley getting darker and darker, then the dead body on barbed wire, and you turn around and there's those goblin thingies with the knives, and you have to just let them kill you...
Awesome

I liked the old Resedent Evil scary bits, where Lickers or Skinless Dogs would spontaniously jump through a wall/window/boarded up windows.

I am off school ill today, I may pick up Silent Hill for the first time in ages.

PS - Are you the one that did a cover of a Burzum song? If so, I wanna hear it.

Yes, that was me, I'll put it up tonight if you want, I need to sort out one of the riffs that went a bit out of time

Do you use Soulseek?

Cyonidedrum · 11-04-2004, 08:01 AM

The zombie sound effects creeped me in out in res 2.

you'd just hear a shuffle and a groan then a zombie would spring out, the lickers sounded awesome too.

evilmenhavenosongs · 11-04-2004, 08:45 AM

The only bit that scared me in a game was in Half Life near the start where there's that big unkillable alien thing with the big long nails round the corner and you know it's there. The reason why no other game has scared me is because I gave up after that and moved on to Monkey Island, Neverwinter Nights and The Sims.

The bit where you look in the bath in eternal darkness and she screams and it flashes and she is just lying in the bath full of blood.
It's just so unexpected

Volkert314 · 11-04-2004, 09:29 AM

In Eternal Darkness where at one point you save your game and than it just deletes all your files, it didn't scare me in the sense but I started to flip out cause it really had me going cause I was so into the game at that point.

Maggies_Farmer · 11-04-2004, 11:04 AM

Loads of parts from Resident Evil that I didnt know were coming...
The dogs smashing through the windows
The huge **** off snake
etc

BigBadBooDooDady · 11-04-2004, 11:19 AM

When the flood is first introduced in Halo. First time I saw it, lights out, sound up, about 1am, bymyself.

Spooky.

Shadowwynd · 11-04-2004, 11:24 AM

Eternal Darkness got me... Random head exploading while wandering around the manor lol.. The bath was alittle unexpected too

But the scariest moments are when playing Theif 1 and 2 (3 seems to be but not got far enough yet to know if it has the same feel) when your sneaking back out of the place you just cleaned out and you turn a corner (after peaking around to check all is clear) and a guard walks into you lol.. i get so caught up in the game i makes me jump outa my skin. That and turning a corner into a pack of zombies or those nasty balrogish type things (can't remember name... played it... nearly 3 years ago lol).

No other games/movies have ever scared me since Terminator2 when i was like 10.. that movie didn't agree with me at the begining lol!

evilmenhavenosongs · 11-04-2004, 11:30 AM

I love Theif 2 but I'm so incredibly bad at it and I get so absorbed. I don't think I managed the first level even, I do like hiding in the dark corners and jumping over the rooftops though.

leftover_crack · 11-04-2004, 11:46 AM

i'd have to say doom 2. after a while of play, it just dulled out. its an old game but it could scare you during its time.

rising_fury · 11-04-2004, 01:48 PM

probably things in resident evil. although, doom 1 scared the crap out of me a couple times. i jumped down a ledge and right in front of me was an imp. i unloading into it and it was all good.

The Haitian · 11-04-2004, 01:56 PM

resident evil. when stuff broke through windows and such. those games were so hardcore

thedeadwalk! · 11-04-2004, 02:59 PM

resident evil 2 was the first game to really scare me. right from the beginning, when you're standing near a wreck and zombies are walking toward you, i thought it was scenematic, until i almost died, then i panicked and shot wildly. later on in the game when you're exploring some room and a licker jumps through a mirror, i dropped the controller, and screamed kind of high pitched.

eternal darkness had awesome insanity effects. best gamecube game i ever played.

other than that, clocktower was pretty scary, since you're being chased by some huntchback with giant scissors. very creepy.

most recently, i can't forget doom 3. beautiful graphics and haunting audio. i haven't yet dared to play it at night in the dark with audio real loud. it's scary enough as it is.

EonBlueApcolyps · 11-04-2004, 03:04 PM

Silent Hill has some really creepy stuff

Amit · 11-04-2004, 03:12 PM

Eternal Darkness was absolutely thrilling.

Doom 3 has great atmosphere too, with all the shading and audio

Yeah the snake scared me too. In the attic, I walk in, and I'm like "hmm....

.....aaaaargh!"

Milo · 11-04-2004, 04:04 PM

The zombie in Resident Evil Zero that can stretch his arms is pretty creepy, especially the sounds it makes.
And i almost died in Resident Evil (Cube remake) when I walked through the big door in the small landhouse and this huge spider crawled down the wall just behind me. Took me 3 seconds to collect myself and shoot that bitch with an acid grenade!

Oh and that small monster in chains is very scary...
