When me and a friend first go the demo of Alien Vs Predator 2 he played for roughly 60 seconds before turning it off to nerve wracked to continue. He still hadn't encountered any enemy's by that point.

The game that really freaked me out was Resident Evil (the first) for GC. Lisa Trevor (i think thats the name) Really was the freakiest character I can think of.
Also, (when i played it when i was about 7) Resident Evil: Code Veronica really freaked me out, just because of the zombies and blood (I WAS 7)

one more STALKER vote here.
never in any other game have I actually thought that the enemies are as scary as their in-game reputation.
these videos should be enough proof:

vote for avp (as col. marine)
watching the films is one thing but this is the only game i had to turn off for overbearing fear factor & never look back
also the ss2 monkey sounds are not good
(guess you had to be there, will have to check if it's patched for xp & vista yet)
heard about fatal frame, didn't buy it for the obvious reason that i'm a total wuss
edit: oddly while typing this fermata in mystic air from silent hill popped into my head & won't leave

Seriously, did no one here but the select few play the Fatal Frame games? Those were the scariest experiences of my LIFE. Any game that plays like a well-produced movie is good, in my opinion, but this went farther than any I've seen. I mean, it's scary enough by nature, and it's fantastically designed, but in order to fight the ghosts that pop up everywhere (all the while mumbling, screaming, or saying something in some terrifying way), you have to take out a camera and take pictures of them in FIRST PERSON. If the game was an FPS, that would be one thing, but you're scared out of your mind looking at it from a distant camera perspective, then you have to get in up close and personal. Scariest thing EVER. Those games were terrifying, and so amazing.
I remember in the first game when you are walking outside, with dark forest all around you, and you come into a small shack. YOu must solve a rather morbid puzzle, then something happens. It is obvious that there is a ghost around, and you cannot leave the room. I was playing it with my cousin, and we were looking around frantically for the ghost, but it never came. We were freaking out until we finally looked up... and a dead guy who was hanging from the ceiling immediately fell down in front of us and started coming at us. You know how sometimes guys have reactions kind of like a scream, but they're trying to be manly so they just kind of go crazy and panic instead? Yeah. *shudders*

The original Silent Hill FTW.
Also, the Shalebridge Cradle in Thief Deadly Shadows was pants soiling when the mental patients got out.

i don't really like scary games because it seems they require a totally helpless main character, i'm not helpless nor have i ever been helpless and it's not the kind of thing i'd want to do for fun. but i did rent and play call of chthulu: dark corners of the earth, that was a scary fucking game. honorable mention for me goes to the dahaka from prince of persia 2. i was terrified of that thing.
That section made me squeal. Like, seriously loud, ohmygodwhatwasthat kind of squeal that one expects from a 10 year old girl in a dark house during a thunderstorm after the power goes out and something creaked downstairs but oh man what was that outside is it just a branch!?HappyZealot said:
Yup, chalk up another vote for Project Zero/Fatal Frame. Those games were fucking terrifying. System Shock 2 also gets my vote, purely because it's one of the best gaming experiences ever made. And it features screaming psychic monkeys that are ACTUALLY SCARY!
And the spiders *shivers*.

Dang, completely forgot about the cradleProgrammed_For_Damage said:
One guy from the dev team was constantly working on that one level on his own. How do they even come up with the idea of an orphanage being turned into an asylum? Without removing the orphans, that is.
