Doom3 lost all it's atmosphere when you realised it was the same bloody trick every time and would immediatley spin round to check you're rear whenever something showed up.

I'm still waiting to know what all the fuss was over Half Life.

SS2 get's the thumbs up though. Probably the cargo bays and Recreational being highlights

I remember, THIS, I remember the first time I saw it I remember all I could do was cry... the terror... I just peed myself.

Doom3 lost all it's atmosphere when you realised it was the same bloody trick every time and would immediatley spin round to check you're rear whenever something showed up.

I remember complaining on this very board that I ended up playing Doom 3 backwards, since that was the safest way to do it.

I still think FPS-RTS games have the most untapped potential, like Battlezone 1 and 2 or even maybe Savage.

Battlezone 2 had excelent atmosphere () in the pluto missions, afterwards... meh...

While not exactly a horror game, Resident Evil 4 had it's moments.

Your first meeting with Dr. Salvador, the village at night, the Bella Sisters, HEDGE MAZE AUGH!, your first step in the sewers (SPLASH!  thud-thud-thud-thud-THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD, then silence), the fight with Verdugo, Oven man (which is hilarious once the shock wears off), the first Regenerator,  the creepy prison section on the island w/ fleshbags, and other things I can't remember.

The whole game was 2 discs of awesome.

The last Mission of FEAR was really really scary
I remember, that I was running around like a crazy cat and shoot everything, that moves! ^^°

I'm actually up to that part in Call of Cthulu... I havn't played it in a few weeks... =/

SS2 is pretty freaky and cool.....reminds me of the movie 'Event Horizon'.  If you havent seen that, go see it. Its pretty much exactly the same as SS2. If you like SS2, you'll love Event Horizon.

Fahrenheit is scary.

[SadisticSid]

The Shalebridge Cradle level in Thief 3 terrified me - so much that I put it down and didn't dare finish it for a year. Mind you, I did play it at 2am in an empty house with a particularly good surround sound system.

The truly scary games, for me at least, appeal to my subconscious - AvP and SS2 weren't, so much, because you usually have a large load of weaponry to deal with the nasties. In the Thief games you're pretty much screwed if fight anything that finds you, and the undead can't be killed except by holy water, which is in rather short supply.

Does anyone remember Space Hulk or its sequel?

AVP2 Marine campaign. I seriously could never play it without god mode (although I beat the predator and alien games just fine without it )

[TrenchardsLoveSock]

AvP2 was the first game that really freaked me out (but only as a marine).  That bloody motion tracker always had me jumping!  Spent the first 20 minutes of the game creeping up on a crane hook swinging in the wind!  Almost always shot the doors as they opened, and I'll never forget the sheer panic induced adrenaline rush when it all kicks off after you kill the hosts in the first hive: running backwards, shooting everything and hoping your ammo will last.  Perfect level design.

Playing FEAR at the moment, and it is the first time I have ever actually felt my skin crawl!  I actually have to play something else if the wife goes to bed before me.  Brilliant use of sound and some excellent touches like shadows that come from behind but there's nothing there have me cr***ing myself EVERY time.  It also happens to be a damn good FPS in it's own right.

AvP1 Marine Campaign. The only game which made the bloodveins in my thoat to ache because of the exitement. Seriously, my neck was hurting after one gaming session of the campaign. On the other hand, all my spider senses were also tingling (for some odd reason). I heard it quite clearly when my room mate tried to sneak behind me and scare me when I was playing. Great game, great game indeed. AvP2 was a real blast aswell but for some reason I didn't find it that exiting (good though).

And of coure F.E.A.R. First game after AvP1 which had me that exited.

[Cyker]

Both AvP's scared the hell out of me (AvP + Dark room + Head phones = Scary)

System Shock 1 and 2 were both ultra creepy, had plenty of *Ohmydeargodjesusi'mscared!* and *AAAIEIIEIEAA!!* parts in them both.

Parts of some games had me creeped out - The Dream Sequences in Max Payne are really ****ing freaky, as are some parts in Diablo 1 (Like where you first meet The Butcher).

I haven't gotten through Farenheit yet, but it's looking like a real mind-**** game, like Sanitarium (Which was a really freaky mind-**** game  )
