Scary Moments in E-rated Games

From when you were a child, or not. Your choice.

For me, I could never stand that dog from Duck Hunt, it had such an eerie laugh.

Hmm, I seem to be running low on air...

[HEADING=1]Oh shi-[/HEADING]

I would panic so much when this kicked in. I vowed to myself that I would never drown, just in case that's the noise it makes.

Everything seems to be fine so far.

Several locations in Grunty's Lair in Banjo-Kazooie used to really creep me out.
Mostly when gigantic grinning statues or sculptures of Grunty are involved.
I was eight years old, man!

The wall masters in OoT always scared the bejeezus outta me when I was younger.

Zelda LttP (Skull Woods dungeon) and OoT (Forest and Shadow temples) had some pretty scary moments for kids. I still find OoT's Forest Temple kind of unnerving (that music...). They really nailed the "abandoned and hunted forest manor" feel with it.

This. A million times, this.

Was Majora's Mask rated E? Well that game kind of freaked me out. The entire atmosphere of that game is unnerving and depressing. I love it

Pretty much everything about Heart of Darkness for the PS1. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYyZfME5XYY]

It managed a 3+ in the UK, too. Bearing in mind we gave a 12+ rating to fucking Sonic Rush Adventure.

Well there's Heart of Darkness. I haven't played it myself, but I have seen this:


How the hell did this get an E-rating??

Well there goes my answer. However, to not just use this post to agree, I shall add, that while not a "moment" per se, Lavender Town was pretty damn creepy.

The music did not help.
