Not in a scared/freaked out way, but in Jak 3 there was a scene when Daxter and Tess were having some weird love talk where they called each other weird names and talked in stupid voices (you know how some people get high-pitched voices when sweet talking with their bf/gf, that's the kind of thing I mean). It was so embarrassing and annoying that I pressed mute as quickly as I can. Was just so disturbing in it's embarrassment.

Also, you want disturbing? Call of C'thulu.
Ah indeed the Call of C'thulu Darkest corners of the earth game was pretty disturbing in alot of places, especily when you have the 'vision' scenes.

The Happy Mask Salesman really creeped me out when I first played Majora's Mask back in 2000. Something about his odd movements and unclear agenda genuinely disturbed me.

The end of MGS3. I did not want to pull that trigger... and it was even worse afterwords, after you learn the truth.

Some of the stuff I've seen in the God of War 3 trailers has bothered me. I'll go to the wall to defend free speech, but man...

Hey, I have an uncle Doug too!

I was disturbed when I was little and I realized that the trainers in Pokemon's sole purpose in life is to stand in one spot and battle you. No food. No sleep. No friends.

Only Zuul.

oh goodness, when I was a lad I was disturbed by the fact that Baron Samedi kept coming back and would laugh each time you killed him. Then, even ater you killed him the final time he would run after you.

When you first get off the Bathesphere (whatever) in Bioshock and that freaky lady is stalking you. Scared me witless.

Also the trailer to Dead Space did scare me, but the actual game not so much.

"Tea party" scene in American McGee's Alice dsiturbed me a lot when I played the game for the first time.

Also, Shalebridge cradle level in Thief 3. I didn't have patience to play even past half of the game so I watched it on Youtube. That's a level I would never EVER try to play when alone or in a dark room.

I generally steered clear of horror games when I was younger, but my first one probably scared me the most. F.E.A.R. 2. Though Doom 3 scared the crap out of me just from watching.

And that when you think about it, what you are doing is abducting animals from their habitats in the wild, where they may have mates or young to look after, keeping them inside a cramped little ball for most of their remaining lives, and only allowing them to emerge to fight viciously with other creatures of a similar misfortune in a brutal manner, usually involving fire or electricity, until one of them becomes unconscious from exhaustion or excessive trauma.

Gotta catch em all!

The Flood-introduction scene in Halo 1 was pretty suspenseful and atmospheric, although I wasn't severely affected or anything.

The school level in Condemned:CO...

The man in the locker especially, if you played it you know what I'm talking about.
