Well Fatal Frame freaked me out... But I'm not a big fan of those games... Just not my style I suppose. Silent Hill was really weird. I got to a point where baby zombies or something to that effect started jumping at me and did what looked like was eating me. A little too weird for me so I turned it off. lol

I don't think the Clock Tower series got enough attention. Those games were darn scary.

I'd have to say Resident Evil 2.

I haven't played many of those others because my parents get worried and go overboard in their Nazi plan to "protect" me.

Hah.. AvP2 was pretty spooky, at least when I was a human on it. The rest of the time there was less jumping out at you.

Resident Evil scared me a lot on PS 1, back when it came out, much too paranoid to play that game..

That reminds me of an event of a few years back. I was playing a computer game. I wasn't scared, but I was extremely tense. It was Star Wars: Dark Forces. I was on the last level, knowing full well there was the final boss lurking around for me (this was my first time playing it, so I didn't know what to expect). The music playing was from the death star scene where Luke has to suceed at blowing it up, so the music alone was getting me all psyched for a big, tense ending. I was really get swept into it, fully focused on it.

While I was trying so hard to keep alive, wondering what monster or beast or baddy would come along to blow me to bits, my brother saw how intense I was. Being the ornery type, he slowly and quietly snuck up on me. At a critical moment he said "boo" or something like that, and I must have jumped 3 feet in the air, and it took me a while to catch my breath and get my heart beat slower while my brother laughed at me.

I was irritated with him at the time, but it makes for a cute memory. I certainly paid more attention to what was going on behind me (literally) from then on. :D

Also, the first time I played The Legend of Zelda, the Mask of Majora was kinda tense. That moon was so blasted ugly and creepy! :D

System shock definitely immersed you into an environment where you felt alone and alien. Although not incredibly scary I don't guess, There were moments where you felt like you would REALLY rather be somewhere else than on that freaking space station.

The Thief games were like that too. You were on edge.
I wanna start playing scary games. Nice bloody ones. It's not a game unless the blood splatters.
