I only had this problem when I first played it. Now I know where to find awesome revolvers early on that last until about the fascist/communist warzone level.Exocet said:

But nothing is worse than back in the days when I owned an original Playstation and I tried to load a game only for it to tell me that the save file had been corrupted.
I don't know if that counts as panic or rage. I think I felt both.
Is that the part where you get on the platform to get cake but instead there was fire? I panicked and quickly was able to put the portals in the place I needed to.Cool Welshy said:
One time in Left 4 Dead we were playing expert on No Mercy, I think the second chapter of it, We were at the part after the generator. We jump out the window and the other 2 survivors died by the tank. So it's just me and someone else, we were just about to enter the safe room when a which is RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE DOOR! We jumped her and got in right before she got pissed.

I have several.
First, that moment when fighting a particularly hard boss, who is about to kill me, as I realise that my last save was 3 hours ago. Fuck you, Dead Rising 2 and your psychopaths.
Having a spider in Minecraft jump on my head from a tree, while I'm completely unawares that it's there. That shit FREAKS ME out... -.- AND their eyes glow...
Playing a fighting game online, or with a friend. I'm trouncing the guy, and they begin to make what seems to be an unavoidable comeback
Serious Sam. Whoever thought up those skeleton, horned thing is an arsehole...
Killing Floor. Last zombie of the wave, we all make our way to the trader, and it turns out that last zombie is a FleshPound...

Not a 'scary' moment... but in Batman Arkham Asylum is was terrified at the point when scarecrow attacks you for the third time and the game seems to crash and goes back to an alternate opening sequence... I restarted 3 times thinking my game had broken. 
Fighting a big daddy in the 1st bioshock. The only times a game has sped up my heartbeat. Especially if you didn't see it and a stray bullet hits it, and you're not prepared. Those moments were the best thing in the game, gameplay wise.
Both 'push the button' moments. Especially after the first one when Wheatley takes control of the facility and opens up an elevator, then traps you in it and drops you down the shaft.
This. I was sitting there, watching the cutscene, almost mesmerized at the way she was moving. Slowly and painfully, sobbing the whole time...and then she crawled /through/ the turnstile...k-ossuburb said:
...and then the cutscene ended and she came RACING towards me at a speed I was not in any way prepared for. I turned around, ran back the way I'd come, then switched off my PS2 and didn't touch it for about four days. XD
Also, Rule of Rose has what I think is a truly masterful moment early in the game. You get your first weapon, which is of course pathetic (I think it's a dessert fork or something), and soon after that, you fight your first enemy, which is also fairly pathetic (but still freaky). Then, if you are at all familiar with the way survival horror games tend to work, you spend the next twenty minutes or so expecting to fight more enemies.
You even get another weapon, and still the monsters are nowhere to be seen. You remain unmolested until the end of the chapter, when you finally find the item you've been searching for...and when you're literally within an arm's length of picking it up, the room FILLS with imps. Dozens of them. There's no way you can possibly fight them all off; your only choice is to pick up the item and run like hell. Through a series of formerly-empty rooms and hallways that are now SWARMING with hostile, bloodthirsty children in creepy masks.

Facehuggers. I. F***ing. HATE. Facehuggers. Nothing freaked me out in AVP and AVP2 like getting one of those right in my face. The distinctive noise they made as well did NOT help at all.
At one point in AVP2 I was told to run through a nest of eggs... my response was 'F*** THAT!' and I blew them all away. later on, i got huggered twice in a row without warning.... I literally had to stop playing they had freaked me out so much.

I'm pretty sure that game was called Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage.Arqus_Zed said:
OT: Minecraft. My first time playing, I had no coal and didn't know where to find it, so I built myself a little hole in the ground and barricaded myself in with dirt to try to survive the night. I almost crapped my pants because I could hear all of the zombies, spiders and skeletons crawling around outside. Also, if I moved too close to one wall of my little bunker, a creeper would start hissing. Eventually, I gave up and let the creeper get me. That experience traumatized me to the point where I can no longer play the game for longer than a few minutes at a time because hearing the zombies in the walls scares me so much.
Dead Space 2 hardcore mode.
Caught in the middle of a room with the Swarm closing in on all sides.

*Playing Dynasty Warriors, kicking ass* WHOO! Take this ya mooks! Wait... Who's that?
It springs to mind as it was one of the first times I panicked in a game.
