I nominate SOVEREIGN. Sovereign is the a massive squid-like dreadnaught warship in Mass Effect. Soveriegn is a sentient AI that leads hordes of Geth into space combat. It's mammoth black hull and tentacle-like 'legs' (not to mention a sinister super-laser) are the perfect conduits for itsmalicious goal: destroying all organic civilizations in the Milky Way.

The concept of Sovereign is just terrifying. And that's why I nominate 'it' for one of the scariest enemies of all time slots.

The mutants from System Shock 2.FrozenLiquid

Oh yes, I hated seeing them break the silence and run at me :(

Also I agree with the first post - Sovereign, but I think it's more psychological.

The Splicers from BioShock could be fairly horrific at times, too.

Regenerators from Resident Evil 4.

Honestly the entire game is not scary, but the funny thing is, when you encounter these things they scare you more than any other game, ever. They are so freakishly horrible and repulsive - the way they flop through windows and dive from the floor to your neck with their teeth and the way they breathe and move...

Also Crimson Heads personally scare me a fair bit since they are so damned difficult to kill and when you reach over to burn the zombie there is always the question: will he become a crimson as I do this and attack me?

Not so sure why, but the beast in homeworld cataclysm frightened me, and sound a bit alike the Sovereign. I guess it was scary cause its nature and threat were so unclear.
Second thoughts the fact it merged crew with ship may have something to do with it. Mutilated, eroded, staying alive but without control. At the start there is no stopping it either.

Only thing that was scaring about those was that I missed the thermal scope on my first playthrough.. I had too use nearly all my ammo every time I faced those lol. Actully the game was an infinite amount ahrder when I played it on normal then when I played it on hard for that reason among others.

Hands down, the Strogg, especially from Quake 4.

The most fearsome and brutal enemy alien race I've ever seen in a game or anywhere.

The Chimera from R:FoM and the Combine from Half-Life 2. Sure, the Combine don't look scary but what they do is disgusting and brutal.

Anything in silent hill is scary cause of the perfect atmosphere that game creates but pyramid head was that one thing you just would never want to meet in person ;)

In spyro 1 on all of the stages in the world Dream Weavers had some really disturbing monsters. When I was a kid I had alot of nightmares about the ones in the stage Jacques. I'm actually replaying it now to see if it really was that scary.

Tame compared to his other stuff though

Bioshocks Splicers also give me the jibes - the stuff they say. Kinda like Shock 2s mutatants.

Regenerators - RE4 .DaysAirlines
I hated those things.

The sound they made..... Sends shivers down my spine thinking of them. And how they slowley approached you jittering and shaking - or when you blew off their legs - and the would lunge at your throat.

The spiders would make me jump sometimes.

This isn't particularly an enemy, but Occoco (or whatever it's called) from TP really, really creeped me out. A chicken with a human head is one thing I would never want to see in reality...

The blinded ghost from Fatal Frame scared the hell out of me. Actually, there are several ghosts from that series that I'd nominate. Those shadow ghosts in FF3 really give me the creeps, mainly because shadow ghosts are the scariest "type" of ghosts to me (not that I believe in them). They lack any physical trait that shows they were once human, which makes them seem much more sinister.

Regenerators from RE 4 (It made me stop playing the game)

The beserkers from Gears of War (when it plowed through the wall I lept out of my seat) :cry:

I seriously dislike scary games since I hate to be scared, but I did play RE4 a lot, and can easily say that the Regenerators are one of the scariest enemies I've encountered in a game. I hate the way they breathe.. I played Silent Hill 2 long ago, and it was scary as hell, but I don't remember the enemies.
