I used to seriously hate trolls as well. Especially on one particular side quest which I won't spoil just in case, but I hate how fast they are, or when you are in a cave, and they would just run right round the corner in your face.Randomorific said:
This thread is the best... and the worst. So much childhood revisiting.
That fucking eel in mario 64, I can never enjoy a water level in any game ever... Creepers in minecraft too, more scary than anyone gives them credit for.
And I swear zelda Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are scary enough to be horror games!

Pikmin 2, the Submerged Castle. I don't care what you say, that was scary shit!

The game makes you get into a rut of cleaning out all the levels of a duneon, then finishing off with a standard boss fight with a giant spider or crab or something, only to throw this level at you. Ramdomly part way through this level the final boss drops out of nowhere and tries to crush you. Then the rest of the dungeon is spent running away from him, and if you try to fight back your Pikmin just bounce off and get caught under his wheels. Its godamn distressing.

Oh god, the haunted mansion/hotel thing? nnnyyaaagghhh that was creepy. Made my skin crawl the first time I played it. Such an awesome game, shame what happened to the company.icame said:
Why do I read these damn threads? It just reminds me of the really really scary things and makes me nervous for the rest of the day. Gah.
I'm gonna be a maverick here and pick one no one else has...
It was in Fallout 3 and I was in Vault 87. This must have been my fifth or so playthrough so I knew what to expect. Anyway, I saw a radroach coming towards me and didn't wanna waste ammo on something that literally couldn't hurt me. So I shot at it with the assault rifle, one bullet at a time, walking backwards.
Suddenly, my guy stopped moving backwards, as if he had hit a wall. But there shouldn't have been a wall there. Just as I'm spinning around FOUNDYOUARRRGGGBARGL!!!!! I had backed into a supermutant and he yelled just before I could see him.
I scream, jumped, and tossed my controller in the air.
Another case of REAL FEAR not just jumpy fear was in Fallout New Vegas. I was doing that Dead Money DLC and was at a part where you fight ten or so of those ghost-y guy things. I had barely any ammo left, but definitely enough to take them.
Anyway, I could hear them and they were on my radar, but I couldn't find them. Every once in a while I'd stumble on one or two and fight them only to get my ass handed to me and run away into more or to see more in the distance.
There was no way out and nowhere to hide so I literally hid in a corner. I started freaking out in real life and felt like I was on the verge of tears. I couldn't handle it anymore, and I have no idea why. I felt that if I saw one of them I would just lose a shit so I got up and shut off my Xbox.
EDIT:
"Come on, Boone. Look over those hills. According to my radar there's a bunch of hostiles. Maybe they're bighorners! I love bighornJESUS OW CAZADORES ERRYWHERE!"
Also, deathclaws never scared me. By the time I actually would meet them (Level 9 or 10) I could easily take them. I always found them cooler than they were scary.

Cant think of any off the top of my head but lots of fallout3 posts, I'll never look at that game in the same way again lol 
Old olney in Fallout 3 , and REPCON (i think it was repcon) in New Vegas, anyway the place with the ghouls and the Nightkin in the basement. Also oblivion sometimes in the dungeons, almost jumped out my chair.
An old multiplayer FPS called close quarters combat, in a one on one deathmatch, my friend hid from me on the map for about 10 mins, then jumped out of cover and took the winning kill. Think I actually went back over my chair that time.

L.A Noire, the last Homicide case:
Not so much the final bit of chasing that guy down, even thought that was pretty horrible to play through.
No, I mean the maze section when your'e still finding the poetry exerpts. Understand, I hate and fear the idea of being trapped somewhere I can't get out of, and mazes are just the embodiment of that. So having to wander through that claustrophobic nightmare was just awful for me.

Yep, it added layers to each character.Skootz said:
Agent Nein left home after he couldn't stop telepathically reading his father's desire to have sex with his mother (who is dead).
Coach Oleander was kicked out of every army faction he applied to, and was horribly traumatized by his father killing a rabbit.
It's worth playing through the game again just to unlock the sub-layers of trauma everyone has.
Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind. Vivec.
I walk out of someones room that I had just gone clepto in only to hear "We are watching you." VERY LOUDLY from my right. I turned to find a Dunmer guard game-buggingly, and glitch tastically, micro meters from my face.
Abloogy.
woogy.
woo.
