Most dreaded sounds in gaming.

[Direwolf750]

OMG i just remmbered something from all the zelda music the sound of hundreds of chickens comeing to waste you were you stand lol

oh god, that is hands down one of the most horrible feelings in gaming.

 

[Colonel Alzheimer's]

Mass Effect 2.
Insane difficulty.
ASSUMING CONTROL OF THIS FORM

 

[Malf]

Navi's voice in Ocarina of time. Also, the sound of a Pro Pipe being launched.

[DarkLunarian]

Not a videogame, but definitely gamer.

The sound of your DM chuckling and flipping through notes after someone rolls a natural 1.

 

[xavix]

any noises related to the SA-X or the Tank scare the shit out of me

 

[Nickthequick]

Sound of a witch always freaked me out, just because i knew one of the bots would set her off and i would probably be in the middle of it.

 

[mrdude2010]

easily the "clink clink clink" of frag grenade after frag grenade bouncing after you in halo 3


also, if you didn't see him first, hearing the soft "booooooooom" of a rocket guy in GoW is terrifying

 

[Godhead]

The sounds of Pyramid Head. I still have nightmares about Silent Hill 2.

 

[Weaver]

They Muka noise from Ragnarok Online. Most annoying sound in the world.


They make that screeching noise.

 

[seanez]

The wonderful grating of a hard-drive ripping its own guts out

Oh, in-game? Probably HL2 fast Zombie howl. The critters might drop to a double shotgun blast to the face, but their howl puts me on edge. Nothing much else comes close - kudos to that sound engineer!

And to various other people quoting this. The sound is called "The Wilhelm Scream"
It's in the nutri-grain add

Also that sound, spider sounds and Re-deads/Gibdos.

 

[RN7]

Maplestory. The sound effects. Every. Damn. Sound Effect. Except for savage blow (Kanji Blast)


The sound of an extra pair of footsteps always scares the crap out of me in Fallout 3, especially when I VAT around to see what it is and it ends up behind me. This is especially true when Reavers and Sentry Bots spawn.

 

[martin's a madman]

When your pokemon is in the red and it starts beeping.

I like to make words of it.

"I'm dying, I'm dying, I'm dying, I'm dying"

"Kill me, Kill me, kill me"

ETC.

Like, a scritcha scratcha scritcha scratcha scritcha scratcha?

Their little feet climbing towards you all along the walls.

Scritcha scratcha scritcha scratcha.

 

[War Penguin]

The beeping sound in any Zelda game when you have very low health. It is the noise that haunts me when I'm fighting a boss and I have no fairies in bottles... it's also pretty damn annoying.

 

[Zaydin]

Assuming Direct Control is up there. Especially on Insanity difficulty for ME 2.

 

[randomsix]

Maybe I missed it but:
Cliff racers' wings.

Blood runs cold when I hear it.

 

[SteinFaust]

in Battlefield 2, that grating, metallic "BEHH BEHH BEHH BEHH BEHHHHHH" of a missile lock on your tank.

that loud, slow, screen-shaking "FFFFWWWOOOOAAAAAARRRRRRRRR" of a stealth bomber in MW2

that hissing, moaning noise that Litches make in Oblivion.

Oh that?
That's just pants-shittingly scary.

I had forgotten Cliff Racers. Their cry was annoying, too. Hell, everything about Cliff Racers was annoying.
