Scariest or freakiest enemy/boss in a FPS

I know this has kind of been done with the scariest moment in a game thread...but i wanna know, has there been an enemy or boss thats totalyl freaked somebody out? the doom bosses did a good job of that.

for me, i have that fear of spiders (i know what its called but i cant spell it) so the giantspider boss in Dark Messiah freaked me out, as well as those spider enemies. or the spiders in doom.

also, i dunno if anyone remembers Clive Barkers: Undying. that entire game was f***ed up, the enemies were scary as hell.

The correct answer is, and always shall be, the head crabs in the original Half Life. NO! STOP TRYING TO LATCH ONTO MY FACE YOU LITTLE BASTARDS! GET AWAY FROM ME!

The first time i fought el jigante (no i dont know how is spelled) in RE4 it scared the crap outa me untill i realized i could kill him easily.

I don't play any scary games, not cus they're scary, but mostly they aren't too good. anyway, the fast zombies in HL2 were kinda creepy the first time I saw them. man they are fast!harrisi17

I do play a lot of scary games, and I'll have to agree with you, the first time one of those zombies appeared, oh man I jumped from my chair

All the bosses from Painkiller. They weren't scary at all, but man were they awesome.

- Protozoid Slimers from Duke Nukem 3D

- Hell Hands from Blood

- Phantasms from Blood

- Dianogas (Sewer Creatures) from Star Wars: Dark Forces

Among others...

it not really a boss, but a step up from the average enemy soldier in F.E.A.R

the first time i ran into one of those crazy soldiers that looks like it has wings or w/e kind of crazy armor suit they had and uses a penetrator, kinda freaked me out (i rememebr , it was late at night and i was using a nice headset at full blast to add to the momentum)

The under water creature in the original Half-Life freaked me out cause it suprised me lol.

One of the splicers from bioshock appeared right behind me after I picked up an upgrade. I jumped up about 6inches.

Also the fast zombies from HL2. Headcrabs... not so much. Mainly because you expected them to be in vents and stuff.

Spiders in Dark Messiah scared the hell out of me, i didn't like how slowly they peered round a corner then swarmed you. And then coming across that big mother******* one was even worse.

The fast zombies in HL2 and Episode1 creeped me out, they were just so fast and came from out of no where. Especially the first time you encounter them, my god did i jump. The bit in Episode1 where you and Alyx have to kill waves of zombies while waiting for an elevator also got to me, it was so dark and then suddenly a fast zombie would come jumping out the dark at you. Spilt my drink on my keyboard the first time i played this section.

Dark Messiah climbing up that room with the giant spiders following you, I have a fear of them as well >_Trappwn

World of warcraft , The GoldTooth Rat in Fargo deep mine.

Definitely the final boss from Half Life 1. I think I **** my pants when I first laid my eyes upon him.

Doom 3's Imps maybe... just keep leaping to your face like a overactive puppy.

HL2 Poison Headcrabs, especially if theres other enemies around. Oh yeah, those fast zombies too, but they dont pose such a big threat since a good dual-shotgun blast will kill it easily. Is that considered as a SPOILER?

The Xenomorphs and freaky facehuggers from Aliens vs. Predator 2. Walking on the walls and ceilings was pretty scary of them, and the quickly-shoot-them-before-they-facehug-you scenes were frightening.

The fast zombies from Half-Life 2. I get the chills when I hear their wail, but when they start running at you with their fleshy body and hungry growls it's beyond frightening. The part on Ravenholm when you had to run away from them because they never stop coming and have to actually open up and close a door behind you.. Man that part gets me every time, and I must have played this level, like, 20 times since HL2 was released.

These bloodsuckers from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 'nuff said.

When i first played Qauke i got scared lol but i was young, oh and when i was 9 (im 15 now) my mum came home with the first silent hill and told me to test it out, so there i am playing silent hill thinking WTF, i walked down the first couple of alley ways and and got so scared i ripped the cord out of the wall and ran off, after no game seemed to scare me.

but then i brought stalker about a month ago and when you first get into the labs and there are a few snorks around oh man was i scared i stopped playing for a bit and went and had a drink lol i was playing at like 12 at night oh and i have a massive fear of water in games it scares the crap out of me, i could never play the old tomb raiders cos there was this water level where you have to swim everywhere and there were sharks and yer i just couldnt do it its weird lol

The invisible freaks that stalk you in the office in FEAR were pretty scary the first time round, I couldn't bare to move forward in the game, I jumped when they threw the dead body through the office glass.

The encounter with the EVE suit in the hotel made me panic too, coming down from the ceiling... I wasn't prepared at all!

The Ravenholm area in HL2 is definitely one area I dread every time I play HL2... Those fast zombies and the poison crab throwing guy just get to me every time.

Those Bastard Spiders in Doom 3 !

God Damn i hated those!, its just the soundthey makeand thenyou knowthey're coming, it striked fear into meeach time,then you'd see the shadows of themor they'd come down from theroof on a web.... *shudders*

It was the animation of them too, and their bony legs...

I'm arachnophobic, and playing that game in the pitch blackled to somevery S**t scary moments....

The first time i fought el jigante (no i dont know how is spelled) in RE4 it scared the crap outa me untill i realized i could kill him easily.

Bloodsuckers in STALKER.

Terrifying, at first. Invisible.....glowing eyes....blood on the screen....the howls....then they'd disappear into the buildings and trees.....and you KNOW they're still out there, waiting for you.

After meeting the first one, you'd never trust your flank again. You'd look over your shoulder every 10 seconds, praying not to see that quiet, shifting, demon chasing your sorry ass down.

running out of moves in a interactive fiction.

some of you get it, and understand the text sarcasm.

I thought the enemies in STALKER were incredibly unique and scary. Especially, the monster that uses telekinisis (can't remember its name). I was quite shocked the first time I encountered one of those beasts in one of the long dark tunnels. All I heard was this high pitched frequency and then i saw this dark creature just standing there. All of the sudden I heard this high pitched frequency and then the camera switches while zooming in on your head. After it killed me with its mind, my mouth dropped in amazement and I had to take a 5 minute breather. Keep in mind I was playing at 1am, pitch black, with a 42 inch screen.intrigued101

After spending countless hours getting scared by these things, I have to admit that they are the enemy that scares me the most. More than anything in FEAR, Doom3, and Bioshock (if that can be called scary). I freaking hate headcrabs.

After playing through Half-Life 10+ times and Half-Life 2 5+, I still get scared occasionally by the little $#@%@#$s...

Quake 1:
The guys with the chainsaws and grenade launchers.

Quake 2:
The guys with the chainguns for an arm.
The cyborgs that run straight at you and gave you a massive hit with a robotic arm regardless of what you were shooting at them.

Half-Life 1:
The enemies that had a tendancy to spawn out of nowhere when you have no health packs in sight.
The occasional head crab hidden behind something not making any sound till they are right up on you.

Serious Sam:
The HUGE enemies such as the bulls, the chaingun/rocket launcher weilding scorpions, the four armed fireball throwers and the laser/rocket launcher weilding macines.
The headless bombers. They were harmless by themselves but in a massive swarm where you have no where to run and a limited amount of ammo, Things can get tense.
