- duggtodeath, on 05/13/2008, -1/+109I'll only admit that in HL2, Ravenholm scared the ***** out of me. Doom 3 was a ***** cartoon by comparison.
- DaMacGamer, on 05/13/2008, -0/+104The fast zombies (that run at you and screech) scarred the living ***** out of me even more.
- Gamer2k4, on 05/13/2008, -1/+83Why wasn't the Yeti from SkiFree on that list? Darn thing startled me every time.
- goldenhearted, on 05/13/2008, -1/+75"#4.
Any Body of Water from Sonic the Hedgehog 2"
Jesus christ, now that they mention it, I remembered how my bro would shout "GO UP! GO UP! GO UP!" when the countdown came up with the Jaws-like music playing in the background while he watched me control Sonic to swim up the purple chemicals to survive.
I can't deny, it was panic inducing and if you can't find a bubble to replenish your time underwater in Sonic 2, you're screwed.
Good times. - xdeliriumx, on 05/13/2008, -2/+66Pyramid-head! HELLO!
- P4NNY, on 05/13/2008, -3/+66Almost every mutant from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadow of Chernobyl was terrifying. Especially the bloodsuckers, controllers and snorks. And the first rat you encounter in Oblivion :)
- VIPAccess, on 05/13/2008, -1/+61Never liked the Sun from Super Mario Bros. 3.
- Carrot1991, on 05/13/2008, -2/+58What about that moon thing in super mario bros 2 that would chase you if you got the key? Or the gibdo in majoras mask?
- Divals, on 05/13/2008, -1/+51When I first played HL2 I had never heard anything about the Half-Life series, never heard anything about Ravenholm or those bloody fast zombies, and I was playing at 3 AM with the lights off. I almost had a heart attack I was so scared.
- mcballz, on 05/13/2008, -0/+44Yes the running/jumping zombies from HL2. Those were terrifying. The poison head crabs were pretty manageable.
- lordtyros, on 05/13/2008, -1/+45What about the Regenerators from Resident Evil 4? I dropped the controller when one I thought was dead did that horrific fish flop and sunk its teeth into my neck.
- navster15, on 05/13/2008, -3/+41The Samus clone from Metroid Fusion scared the everloving crap out of me. You're all alone in this desolate space station trying to contain a parasite when all of a sudden you are hunted by yourself, only with all the weapons you've lost and near invulnerability. Hell, I was still scared even when I finally got the power up to kill it because it was just so freaky.
- StealthMonkey, on 05/13/2008, -0/+36The first time through Ravenholm, when I saw (and heard) those guys for the first time... I ***** everywhere.
- inactive, on 05/13/2008, -0/+33God... That ***** screeching... It still haunts me. I can handle anything else in the Half-Life series, but damn, I hear the echoes of the howling of fast zombies in the distance, and I just freeze up.
- yohnstoppable, on 05/13/2008, -0/+32Those headless ***** in Serious Sam. It is the anticipation, when you don't know which direction they are coming from (usually all directions). All you can hear is "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!"
- Lephtovermeet, on 05/13/2008, -0/+31Sinistar was ***** invincible
- Cyberbladewolf, on 05/13/2008, -2/+27How about the Moon from Majoras Mask. Sure, it started out on day 1 innocently enough, visible but not frightening, but by the end of day 3 you didn't even have to look up to ***** yourself.
- PueSi, on 05/13/2008, -1/+26That ***** hand from Zelda freaked me out so much, that and the screaming zombies. Thank god for the Prelude of Light.
- mentallyinhell, on 05/13/2008, -2/+23Man, I really hated those headhumpers.
- Atomic05, on 05/13/2008, -0/+20Scary as hell the first few times. There you are just finding out you can cut zombies in half and light them on fire and set traps that light them on fire or cut them in half and then those scary ***** start jumping out of every dark alleyway to rattle their way up storm drains and make horrible noises at you.
The worst was that one street you have to run down with the two black headcrab zombies at the end, the regular zombies that keep spawning, and the single trap that seems to offer refuge and then ***** breaks. And thats all *before* fast zombies start running at you over the rooftops. - mywhitenoise, on 05/13/2008, -1/+22Those are the only enemies in a video game that have really scared me. I'm getting a headache just thinking about them.
- inactive, on 05/13/2008, -21/+41this list = fail
- whatthefu, on 05/13/2008, -2/+20pyramid head
- inactive, on 05/13/2008, -0/+18Doesn't matter if you got your health back though, does it? Because the instant you heard that noise, that noise that indicated that they knew where you were, and you didn't know where they were, you froze up and soiled yourself.
- Enasni1212, on 05/13/2008, -0/+15Whoever designed those should get an award. Or get shot in the head. Everything about them was creepy as hell. That wheezing noise they make. The way they shuffle at you. The regeneration, of course. The way their heads and limbs just kind of inflate back to life after getting blown off. The way they squirm towards you when you blow off their legs. the way they just kind of latch on to your neck if you've blown off their arms. Ugh, fighting those things always made me bloody nervous.
- Lambach, on 05/13/2008, -0/+15Scissor-man from clocktower on the PlayStation was by far the scariest enemy of a game. Somehow he could hide in the same locker you just checked 2 seconds ago. Of course I was like 12 when that game came out ,but none the less. That game was scary as hell.
- Enasni1212, on 05/13/2008, -0/+13Ahhh, STALKER... You go through the beginning of the game only worrying about the mutant dogs and boars, which could be pretty damn scary at night (try playing the game with the darker night mod). Then I was walking though the sewers under the military base, fighting bandits and military... and then I hear something shriek at me, and promptly got raped by a bloodsucker. I was at low health on Master difficulty, and the thing came up behind me and just killed me in one or two hits. That was probably the single scariest moment in my gaming career. I didn't play the game after that for days.
Of course, it only gets worse, what with the snorks and controllers and possessed scenery. I literally ducked the first time a bucket got flung at my head in the first lab. What a great game. - inactive, on 05/13/2008, -0/+13I swear to God, those were the first things I thought of when I saw the title. ***** bastards.
- tenrandomdigits, on 05/13/2008, -3/+16What about the snow monster in SkiFree?
- gwaggy12, on 05/13/2008, -0/+13*Administering Antidote*
- centran, on 05/13/2008, -0/+12right BEHIND YOU!!!!!!!
- idavidtang, on 05/13/2008, -0/+12I'll never look at a smiley the same again thanks to evil otto.
:( - amadeusdemarzi, on 05/13/2008, -0/+11I was just about to post this. That thing scared the living ***** outta me. Hands down the scariest video game villain ever.
- yohnstoppable, on 05/13/2008, -0/+11Beware, I live!
- Vapor17, on 05/13/2008, -1/+13you must have balls the size of grapefruits
- modularsky, on 05/13/2008, -0/+12the kraken in shadows of the empire for N64 scared me the most
- Mooney79, on 05/13/2008, -1/+16There should have been at least one of the monsters from F.E.A.R. That series was scary as *****.
- SuperVepr308, on 05/13/2008, -1/+12I have to vote for the Big Daddy. That "clump! clump! clump!" of the boots always got me paranoid (kind of like the Steam Demon in DooM). The infected humans in HL2 crowding into a room with you when you are nearly out of ammo is a good one too.
- D4rkDrago0n, on 05/13/2008, -0/+10but everything else can!
you just need a chair to fall on you and you'd die. - sab0tage, on 05/13/2008, -0/+10I think the poison headcrabs are more of a nuisance, however the fast zombies coming up the drain pipes still ***** me up. That howl they have and the glimpses of their silhouette against the sky was a great precursor to their attack, which made Ravensholm one of the best bits of Half Life 2, I couldn't wait for it to end though.
- paulg2000, on 05/13/2008, -8/+22Dugg for Out of this World alone. I love(d) that game!
Which reminds me: http://digg.com/gaming_news/Another_World_Out_of_t ... - inactive, on 05/13/2008, -0/+9*****, what about Doom 3 lost souls? I swear to God, I had to quit the game when I first saw one - that scene where the woman's head and spine just ripped clean out of her body freaked the hell out of me. Oh, and of course the head spiders... Goddamn, every time I see one, it makes me think of John Carpenter's "The Thing."
- JBurds, on 05/13/2008, -3/+13Buried. No Silent Hill.
- StealthMonkey, on 05/13/2008, -0/+9S.T.A.L.K.E.R. should totally make the list... some of the stuff in that game puts the scary running zombies from HL2 to shame.
- fishbeef33, on 05/13/2008, -0/+8Sonic 2 was actually the easier one in terms of water, unless you count the icky toxic purple stuff in Chemical Plant Zone. Sonic 1's Labyrinth Zone and Scrap Brain Zone Act 3 were the hardest of the "Sonic in water" levels.
Of course, in Sonic the Hedgehog for 360 and PS3, standing in shoulder-deep water is enough to kill the poor guy. It must be his old age. - dagnabbit, on 05/13/2008, -0/+8you apparently haven't spent much time around here lately
- relic180, on 05/13/2008, -4/+16Most of that list I didn't get, a lot of those baddies were boring at best, none were really "scary" at all. What happened to the guy in the rabbit suit in manhunt? Or the mutants in System Shock 2? Or how about something from the Silent Hill series?
- someidiotinnj, on 05/14/2008, -0/+8What about almost any monster from Silent Hill?
