Scariest game ever, across all platforms, and all generations!

What do you guys think is the scariest game you have ever played in your entire life? In any platform. Real world does not count and neither do movies, television, etc. Strictly video games.

For me it had to be that game called Shadowman 64. It was also available on Playstation 2. I ended up downloading the rom but I just couldn't keep playing it. I don't know what the hell the development team was thinking. There is one thing I do know. They made perhaps the scariest game I have ever played in my entire life.

Just crossing the corner in a muddy level and you start hearing the sounds and moanings of these "creatures." Oh but it didn't end there. Abandoned houses with weird pod looking things. Characters that were involved in voodoo and all kinds of crazy magic. That is one of the few games that made me afraid of getting nightmares.

I've conquered Doom 3, Quake, and the Resident Evil fears. However this is just one game I never really beat. Has anyone completed this thing?

What about you guys, which game was scariest for you?

Worms

Fatal Frame easily.
DireToad

lol fatal frame doesnt match CONDEMNED for pure scariness

but for me the most scared I have ever been is easily THE CRADLE level in THIEF :deadly shadows

Halo CE when the Flood first were introduced.

I was in grade 6

>__________> i almost cried.

I've never played any true "horror" genre games, but I know that Metroid Prime can make you feel apprehensive and claustrophobic. I think it's because of the way that the helmet curves in around the screen, making you feel confined. I'm going to eventually pick up RE4 for the Wii, and see what a truly scary game is.Tylendal

I agree with the original poster that Shadowman was scary but for me it was more twisted and freaky than frightening

[QUOTE="DireToad"]Fatal Frame easily.

Friday The 13th- on the NES

Aliens vs Predator- on the PC. Once that motion tracker started going off and the predator started making noises it just really freaked me out. You could see motion on the tracker but couldnt see the camo'ed predator.

Condemned Criminal Origins- 360

I Believe a game BACK IN THE DAY for the pc or "Amiga", was called "Silent Hill". You were in this abandoned house or something and you had to do some weird stuff...cant remember..

Ah! How could I forget Alien vs Predator 2 for the PC. That game was scary too. It wasn't as scary as Shadowman though. See in Shadowman you don't know what the hell is going on, lol.

I beat Condemned: Criminal Origins. They got a new article on Gamespy about Condemned 2. It's going to be even better since there is no pressure for launch title. Did you know they made Condemned in 14 months? Quite an extraordinary feat in itself. I think it's the best launch title for the Xbox 360. Perhaps their best single player game, but that's just me ;).

Resident Evil 4 is scary, but you can blow stuff up. It's a lot of fun too so that alleviates the scariness. Oh I remember Halo on the Xbox. The flood levels were a bit scary. You felt like you had to run for your life. Run and gun in the middle of kind of like a gladiator arena. Lil moments like that made that game legendary and classic.

Example: You see enemy go behind Door A. You think "Okay, he went in Door A, I'll go in Door B to run away".

All of a sudden BAM HE BURSTS OUT OF DOOR B. God I hated that.

The first AVP game.smokeydabear076

Was it better than AVP2? I might have to check it out, never got around to playing the first AVP.

AVP2, probably the only game to make me jump out of my seat. I really want a sequal or remake of the AVP games.trix5817

amen!

ive been waiting for a proper sequal for ages

LOL Friday the 13th on the NES. I couldn't play that game for more than 5 minutes. I never understood how to play it when I was a kid. It's uber hard too. Jason or Freddy whoever the hell it is just comes out of no where. LOL.Unstoppable_1

But the scary part was, he could just show up at anytime! And what made it even scarier was as soon as he showed up the music played extremely loud and he was like the size of a yetti. Just couldnt play that game man.....

Guess_With_ReX

lmfao same here.. I was also in sixth grade. I remember just fighting them for the first time, dying, freaking out, shutting off my old Xbox (RIP) and not playing for a week until I had garnered all my courage back up.... good times.

Doom 3 scared me pretty good too, and F.E.A.R. was also pretty intense, but I've never found a game that I actually believed would give me nightmares. I should rent Fatal Frame.

Yes condemned is scary !!(my scariest!)

REmake hands down

Crimson Heads FTW

lol fatal frame doesnt match CONDEMNED for pure scariness

but for me the most scared I have ever been is easily THE CRADLE level in THIEF :deadly shadows

gillri

eh, condemned is just a cheap scare. :?

i honestly nominate killer 7 for the award, seeing as how it really go inside your head.

It might just be me, but i didnt find RE4 to be scary at all.

Definately check out condemned: criminal origins for PC or Xbox 360. For Resident Evil 4 you're going to want to choose Playstation 2 or Gamecube. The PC is not that good, it was poorly ported.

Silent hill 1 and 2, damn freaky games. Here's a nice little flash game that will make you cry like a baby.

Try damn near impossible, especially for newer computers like mine.

Silent Hill 1 , when I played it I when almost half way when I just couldn't take it anymore.

this is about 9-10 years ago......

You haven't played both...Condemned was weak as far as scares go, even FEAR was better.

How do you play swf files? I might not play it though, i'm wary of links and stuff.

Found link to freeware SWF opener. Gulp.

Suspenseful:- Alien vs. Predator 2 (unless you're playing as the Alien. *presses E* RRRRRAAAARRRGGHHH!!! *splat* *gleeful giggle*)

Tense:- Resident Evil 4 (I know it's not THAT scary, but when you get an unexpected axe/flail/taser from behind it can make one jump. And the Regenerators' hiss is freaky)

Disturbing: Max Payne, or rather one specific sequence in it. The second 'nightmare', in which you walk along blood pathways in pitch blackness, listening to your wife sobbing and your baby making strangled wails. One of the only times a game's genuinely given me the shivers.

Just downright twisted:- killer7 (Curtis Blackburn. Enough said)

Condemned: Criminal Origins

Penumbra Overture

Resident Evil 1 & 2

Definetly Silent Hill 2
