Absolutely water sections, even when not swimming (Emerald Weapon FF7).
The biggest one though, the one that made me stop playing a game altogether, is the Dark Sun from Disgaea 2...no I am certainly NOT posting a pic! Go find it yourself and crap your own pants!
The moment that made me never START playing a game was the beginning of Ecco the Dolphin:
Game: "We'll start with you learning to come out of the water for air. That's it, easy does it. This is nice huh? Pretty graphics, nice music, cute little dolphi- ALIENS!! EVERYTHING GOES NUTS!! YOUR FAMILY GETS KIDNAPPED!! FLASHING RED SCREEN!! ....ok, so first you need to head right-"
Me: *Rips cartridge from console and survives heart attack*

I'm always surprised to hear other people say water sections cause no one I know IRL has the same problem. Also the problem is normally whenever I pan the camera up and see just how empty and vast certain areas are (Shadow of the Colossus's water enemies [even the bird one] scared the crap out of me more than anything else).
Nemesis in RE3, the spiders in Skyrim, the ants/radscorpions in Fallout 3 and New Vegas. Alma from Fear, Creepers in minecraft, Slenderman.
The clickity-clack noises from zombie dogs in the old Resident Evil games. The ones that are always off camera and come charging your way...and you don't know which way they're coming half the time, or when they're in range for your limited ammo filled piece of shit gun.
Also, the lickers from those same games. Always dropping down from the ceiling and giving me heart attacks. Fuck those things.
Edit: Forgot to mention heights. If I know I can just pull a parachute out of my ass like in GTA or Saints Row, I'm fine. But sections like the Radio Tower in the new Tomb Raider? I get hit with vertigo every single time.

Wandering through the dark sewers in Star Wars Dark Forces, and turning to see one of these things up in your face just as your torch dies... http://www.operatorchan.org/vg/src/136574880924.png

To anyone who's has played RE4, you know what this is, you will NEVER forget what this is. It will haunt you dreams!!

I got past the thing in the jail cell, the thing that suddenly crashes through solid concrete and attacks you without warning. I was more startled than actually scared, but I can't bring myself to go through the sewer part the little guy taunts you about - if something breaking through a jail cell unnerves me, then God knows what anything down there was going to do.Matthew Papalionakis said:
Fucking Berserkers in Gears of War. They hunt you via sound, that in itself being kinda creepy, you can't kill them by traditional means, once they hear you they charge towards your position making this scary ass high pitched roaring sound, and if you're not quick enough, you get trampled and die.
It's absolutely nerve wracking fighting those things. >_<

In my game, I was half on auto-pilot, eyelids low, it was getting late and I was playing the game straight through in one sitting. Not to mention he wasn't just standing there, for some reason he was already spewing red light from his mouth. I scrambled to hit the pause button and kind of just went UGH! and scared my dog off my lap. I laughed for a minute then shot him in the face.ResonanceSD said:Moonlight Butterfly said:I don't think the jump scare works if you shoot them. First time I played through on Medium I didn't even notice it. Next two times on 1999 mode I nearly hit the ceiling. I think sneaking about just winds you up.ResonanceSD said:Eh, I just shot those guys and later learned it was a stealth section.Kitsune Hunter said:The Boys of Silence from Bioshock Infinite
Comstock's House is creepy place, no thanks to these guys, but they didn't really scare me, until after a cutscene, when one of them comes from behind you out of nowhere, scaring the shit out of me
That bit where they spawn in one behind you after a voxophone session was just fucking dumb. Not real horror, just a cheap jump scare.
It was still a "I'M RIGHT BEHIND YOU" for me, because I didn't turn around before the tear appeared.
But yeah. Slight jump, then several shots to the face.
EDIT: ...the BoS, not my dog.
OT: Anything that is invincible. And that chases me. If you can't kill something, even with a large weapon, it becomes very intimidating. I kind of get that "DON'T LET IT TOUCH ME!" kind of feeling if it's chasing me.
