>walking into a dark room without night vision goggles

I'm not kidding.

>>1671884
Dude what

I'm ashamed to admit but here goes

>>1671902

The falling platforms and the stage moving by their own, anon. It fucking scared me in the past.

>playing RE1 for the first time
>kind of creepy mansion, nothing spooky going on
>then...

>>1671973
yep, this got me uneasy. I was playing in my neighbours upstairs, I mean my buddy was playing, I left shortly after that scene, ran really fast downstairs and proceed to have bad dreams all night. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fe6srxp1-9I

>>1671973
>start resident evil 2
>can't skip the intro cutscene until you see that fucker's face
Thank you Capcom

>>1671867
The sewer level on Shadows of the Empire (N64). Those things in the water...... o.O

This motherfucker still haunts my subconscious
dose death screams mixed with the unsettling music mang
fuck that game

>>1672016
>that giant one at the end of the level

>>1672016
That scared everybody anon.

This game made me afraid of a zombie invasion at age 6. Dat music...

>>1671902
That doesn't look retro.

>>1671902
why are you ashamed of being scared of a game thats supposed to scare you? also it's not retro.

>>1671902
Fatal Frame 3 on PS2. Guess it's not really retro, my bad. Still scares the fuck outta me

>>1672095
that's fatal frame 2 tho. and yeah theyre pretty spooky

>>1672072
The fucking chainsaw guys used to scare me every time.

You're just walking along the hedge maze and all you hear is the revving noise of the chainsaw and the hedge wall next to you just fucking collapses and hulking chainsaw guy is 3 feet away from you and you die.

Oh and the killer doll toys and giant worms

Doom 64
>dat Baron of hell screaming sound when he notices you
>dat pain elemental
>dat level architecture

Slow games like Text adventures and Point and clicks usually had slow puzzle based gameplay and good atmosphere, but these games always had moments when everything would start speeding up uncontrollably.

Like in castle of the winds, which is normally slow as fuck since it waits for you input every time. As soon as you get paralized by a gelatinous glob, the computer takes 50 turns in a row and they all happnen in less than a second and the text just keeps scrolling up and before you know it you have 5 health left It's fucking terrifying.

Not all slow game had moments like these, but it was impossible to know for sure when that wereworlf silhouette was going to just start clawing the fuck out of you while you try to type a comand.

Or the giant fish in Riven. That fucking giant fish. I spent more time on my first playthrough of riven and myst keeping my nerves steady than I did paying attention to the puzzles.
Sure, NOW I know it's fine, but back then I had very little trust. It's like playing a baseball game just outside of a woods w
here a mountain lion was spotted. Yeah, the lion isn't part of the game, but this game isn't in a professional stadium with a good fence. What's stopping it from becoming a game of run faster than the slowest kid?

Even playing shadowgate a few years ago for the first time made me nervous

HES COMING RIGHT FOR YOU!

the melee in this game used to give 10 year old me heart attacks

The intro music is what scared me from playing it.

I guess I was already too old when games gained the ability to be creepy/scary.

>>1672696
I didn't even notice this shit until I played EWJ on an emulator.

Hooray for having a fuck awful TV in the 90s!

That fucking attic, man. >.<

>>1671973
>>1671994
>>1672008
HUEH_WHAT IS IT!?

Rise of the Triad: Oscuro's floating head snake thing. This fucking thing gave me nightmares when I was a kid. First time I ran across it I turned the computer off and couldn't fucking look at the game for a week.

>>1671973

>>1672757

I remember the horrible scream of those gargoyles you kill with the mirrors.

>>1672791

No joke, I was scared to play OOT because Navi's "HEY" would startle me every time.
Same goes for Banjo-Kazooie where Grunty's speech box would randomly pop up while in the hub world.

>>1672805
I think you would die if you tried to watch a horror movie.

>>1672819
I know I said it startled me every time, but it was more the fear of getting jump scared, rather than the "jump scare" itself, that shook me. Whenever I watched horror movies or played games like Resident Evil I just had the normal scared kid reaction.

>>1671867
This, but i played it anyway.

>>1672805
speaking of oot, i couldnt even get past the first room in the shadow temple as a kid because that weird face painting thing you have to walk through scared me so bad. what's even weirder is that shit like the dead hand or the redeads didnt scare me at all.

>>1671867
>as a kid

That game is still scary as fuck to play.

The end of the level and the horrible, obnoxiously loud

>I'M BAD

would terrify me as a child. I would play the game but run from the room at the end of every completed level. Good times.

>>1672016
>The sewer level
Nigga, the most terrifying thing in that game was the boss fight with this fucker, hands down.

Sewer comes close though, I'll grant you that.

>>1671867

Oh fuck yeah, me too OP. Truth be told it was mostly scary because it took you half an hour to turn around in that bloody game.

>That music
>That atmosphere
This shit still spooks me a bit when I try to go play it again.

>>1673418

The fuck?

Gonna need source on that one.

Haunted House on the Atari 2600.
Hey, I was a little kid, ok

>Playing the Elder Scrolls: Arena for the first time
>Wandering aimlessly around 1st dungeon
>"What is that strange noise I keep hearing?"
>Turn around
>Blue-robed wizard appears out of nowhere
>Destroys me with fire attacks
>Shit pants

This happened when I was 25.

>>1673021
well this game does look pretty creepy somehow
also this video with this guy with what I think is a german accent makes it even creepier some how
http://youtu.be/VBIzd2UMTgg?t=3m32s

>>1673450
so are you in your 50s then?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMGmdtTsPPU

>>1671884
Reminds of the mecha sonic race in SonicCD

>>1673686
what the fuck ljn

This fucker gave me a good scare when I got to him for the first time.

Kind of embarrassing, but I used to play King's Quest VII a lot when I was younger and got extremely scared by the scorpion in the desert.

Played it when I was 6-ish. There was something about this game that made me feel soul crushingly alone.

>>1671867
For a strange reason I had nightmare with the bad guys from abe's oddysee when I was young. I suddenley woke up sreaming at midnight

I know it doesn't seem much these days but playing Shadowgate as a 7 year old kid was a rather creepy experience.

>>1671867
me and my brother in law were playing this in the dead of night on a CRT tv, the ps1 graphics really help this games scare factor, parasite eve 2 had some pretty nasty scares to.

>>1673869
there is a scene in this game of a person screaming in the next room it really shook me up still cut in my brain

Necrodome

I mean look at that shit. The damn car you are in has skulls on it.

>>1673439

The Dagger of Amon-Ra, the sequel to The Colonel's Bequest. The first game was scary in its own right.

Tombs and Treasure for the NES scared the crap out of me as a kid.

>>1673471
open door

>>1673447
This.
Especially if you read the back story in the manual. Something about some lonely old man who died alone in this big mansion. That ghost, if I recall, was the ghost of the same old man. Cliché story, but pretty terrifying for a youth.

I used to get super terrified of the dungeons in The Legend of Zelda. I'd run around the over-world but as soon as that creepy music starts up I'd get my dad to come do the dungeon and boss. Then I'd explore sunny Hyrule again.

>>1673763
Fuck man, that entire game was nightmare fuel. The previous KQs didn't spook me as bad but this fucking game. Especially that asshole who crawls out of the ground and grabs you. Can't remember what triggers him but I felt like it scared me so many times I couldn't ever relay it

>>1673774
>stab someone
> bandit guy appears to take your inventory
> scream

>>1671884
Wat. Seriously, wat. Are you afraid of cats, or something?

This one though, was legitimately scary when I was a 4-year old. At least the cover art is awesome.

It took every bit of courage I could muster to continue playing Space Quest IV after I ran into this fellow for the first time.

The Terminator 2 arcade game. Those robots really used to freak me out, and my stupid cousin kept making fun of me because of it.

I couldn't even bear getting close to the machine to play the damn game.

Maniac Mansion on NES. That part where you drain the pool (and have to fix some wires in the wall or something? Maybe that's a different part), but it always scared me since there's an unseen time limit and if you take too long the house blows up. Always had to have my dad do that part for me. I'm actually amazed he knew what to do since he never played games.

Adventure Island

Couldn't play this even on a sunny day, can't listen to the music today.

>>1673953
Oh good grief, the noise my soundblaster made when he appeared...

Quake I

By the end I was so scared I just closed my eyes everytime I had to go through a portal and sighed in relief when nothing was in it.

>>1675015
>soundblaster

Sierra games were designed to be played with an MT-32 synthesizer, anon

most of them sound like shit with MIDI

>>1675171
>implying the MT-32 didn't use MIDI

I literally got traumatized by looking at that picture and felt a horrible nostalgic feeling. I think that I was six when my older brother was playing this game that he borrowed from a friend.Oh that cutscene.

>>1671867
I played this when i was like 6 and i lost it in this one blacked out building when there were like 2 of those Dilos and a Raptor. Hit the power button and fucked off.

Those gruesome death animations were too much for me.

>>1671867
Okay I only ever played OoT once when I was like 5 and I remembered being scared to shit of some skeleton enemies walking around in some creepy graveyard. Never touched the game since.

>>1672016
Shit like this is why I hate any water levels in 3d games, the low draw distance and monsterous deep ones.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=hTuW-rW2hBE#t=1981

JP: Rampage Edition, cuz this cunt. Had to hide behind chair or get someone else to press start.

>>1675323
omg, still can't believe i beat it without any walkthrough in my childhood

Corridor 7
I lived in an old house at the time.
Had nightmares for months. still creeps me out to think of it.

This is embarrassing but I always had to get my brother to beat Well of Wishes in Keen 4 because I was scared of the Dopefish.

>>1671867
Still scared when the Tyrannosaurus was comming behind you and it's music started to play...

>>1673774
I thought I was the only one........

I was a wee lad when I played Ocarina of Time.

I used to hate turning into adult like because you had to run through a desecrated Hyrule town with screaming (what I thought to be zombies at the time) reDeads everywhere.
Whenever I heard their moaning, I got freaked the fuck out

Also, I always found the forest temple to be way creepier than the other ones, even the shadow temple. It seemed to be much subtler about its creepiness, it wasn't too over the top like the shadow temple was, and that music still makes my heart go faster.

But lastly, this fucker.
He's not that scary in appearance, but the more you think about him, the more disturbing he becomes.

>>1671902
>bought game because I liked horror games, and also because the twins were fucking cute and I have a twins fetish
>scared shitless by entire game, also annoyed that you only have two speeds: Slow as fuck, and even fucking slower

Great game though. but still not retro

It still creeps me out.
http://youtu.be/pilO7GQLF9Q?t=32m19s

don't tell me you never had a nightmare about this creepy fucker

There were some pretty fucked up things in OoT for me at the age of 6-7, but if anything I could NOT handle the ceiling masters in the Forest Temple.

I sorta remembered the first time it happened,

>Walk into twisting corridor
>wtf is this shit
>Kill enemys and move into the next room and just stand there
>SPOILER ALERT: BIG FUCKING MISTAKE
>Hear a weird noise, dont notice my shadow growing in size.
>WHEN SUDDENLY HEADCRAB
>Lifts me into the air, and all that was left of the powerful and heroic Zelda (I was 6-7 and didn't read shit, fuck you) was the final scream he gave off when he disappeared into nothingness

I was literally scared of this room for months and I just couldn't even walk back in there for months.

>>1677279
I need to take the time and proof read some of my posts.

>scared of this room for months and I just couldn't even walk back in there for months.

>>1673423
IG88 never scared me, my uncle has a lot of star wars merchandise and comics, so i already knew about the bounty hunters and i found them pretty cool.
Seeing the giant dianoga at the end of the sewers was pretty scary, giant monsters and deep murky water are some of the worst things you can mix.

>>1677279

Goddamn i've read this post like three times and lost my shit

>just stand there
>SPOILER ALERT: BIG FUCKING MISTAKE

my sides

Posting the obvious

Played the ds version a while back and noticed how cuter they made him look and how the water wasn't too murky to see the bottom anymore. It's like they knew they caused nightmares for a whole generation of kids.

>>1674981
Now that is some scary shit.

>>1677575
*ANYTHING* that involving sea monsters has always done it for me, for as long as I can remember...I'm guessing I'm not alone there since they aren't more common in games or in general.

>>1673774
Fuck, the death by drowning theme's now playin in my head.

>>1678065
-that

>>1671867
This game still creeps me out too much to play it.

>>1677575
this would have scared me if that magical-tier music wasn't playing in the background

>>1671867
I was 6/7 when I was playing hexen 2 as a kid. I never had the full game back in 1997. I had a special demo that contained all of blackmarsh and ended after defeating famine. Those stone golems scared me the most. I would panic every time I heard those loud stomping noises they made.

>>1673471
Apparently there was an NES version in development but it got cancelled.

I loved the soundtrack, but could only play for a minute until resetting it because of how scared I was to play it.
I was 4.

>>1681342

Don't ask why

>>1681435
why?

>>1681435
let me guess. you had some nasty fights with friends thanks to this game and the memories are painful. right?

>>1681435
Were you molested while playing that game?

>>1678937

Dude I have been looking for that game for some time! Not actively, but still. Man, I felt so dumb as a kid when I spent weeks trying to get out of that first cave. I didn't realize you had to go DOWN from the room with those doors that wouldn't open. It was like the2nd or 3rd room of the game. Fuck.

The first Drakan. Those large troll things that could insta-kill you scared the shit out of me.

Fucking Alien Trilogy for PS1. It really scared the fuck out of me, but I actually played it a lot - It was my favorite game growing up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1rZzKeqdWw

>>1681652
Fuck, I'd totally forgotten about Drakan. Awesome game. I remember my stepdad actually downloaded some nude-mod for Drakan, and young as I was i got pissed of at him.

I was scared of the last King's Quest game. My memories of it are fuzzy, but I remember it being very eerie, mysterious and lonely when it wasn't outright terrifying.

>>1681674
Actually, scratch that, I was scared of all the King's Quest games.

>>1673021

>>1673948

Seeing this thread I realize that I was a very coward child and the console which scared me most was the Master System. ;_; It's serious. My problems with Tom and Jerry were the falling platforms and the screen moving by its own sometimes, I was used with going on my own pace in the games. Also, Altered Beast, Ghouls and Ghosts, Strider and this motherfucker in pic related from Sega Chess made me shit bricks back then, all them on SMS.

>>1672735

>Back for more? HEEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE

>>1673763

This but especially the zombie in the Halloween area who popped up if you stayed on the same screen for too long.

Shadow President, especially when you drop a nuke to some poor country for no reason. No cutesy bullshit, no "FUCK YEAH" macho bullshit, just plain numbers, cold statistics, and harsh reality. You'd think you would feel great for accomplishing something, but then you see the big red text "DEATH TOLL" and the rising number of dead you really start to feel really uncomfortable.
You will probably get assassinated after doing that, so that's pretty fucking creepy too. You don't see or hear the assassins coming, you just hear loud bangs and the screen fills with blood and bullet holes. The game theme song is really creepy too.

Still scared...

>>1673869
That game still freaks the shit out of me. While it's not retro, Silent Hill 3 my first exposure to the series, and I was 13. It scared the everloving shit out of me just watching the fucking trailer. I must have some kind of psychological stigma because even to this day it scares me the most out of those fucking games.

SH1 though... the hospital level (and subsequently Nowhere) still unnerve the shit out of me.

The concept of fighting terrorist and killing other "realistic" people instead of aliens or demons was just too scary for me.
Funny how nowadays a realistic FPS is one of the first things that comes to mind when you think video game for kids.

>>1671867
I was disappointed to find this game so awful when I became a bit older

>>1675336
>OoT
>skeletons in a graveyard
5 days late, but I think that was actually Majoras Mask. There were no skeletons in the OoT graveyard...

REMEMBER ME FUCKER?

>>1673423
>running around looking for him in the junkyard
>suddenly machine noises behind me
>spin around just in time to get raped by a pulse rifle

God dammit. He wasn't even that hard as the bosses went but it was so easy to lose that spindly motherfucker in the scrap piles. Then he'd bounce out at you with that oddly slow moon-jump and come at you like a deranged marionette. Seeing him just collapse onto his face in the cutscene after killing him was the most satisfying damn thing.

Believe it or not, this one. I always thought my dad would get pissed with me for playing violent games, so I was filled with tension the whole time.

I don't know if it was the warning from William Sessions or the characters slowly falling apart every time you got hit, but this game really freaked me out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoWVwWVDB6M

>>1685368
>actually tried to play this when I was 5
>couldn't even see the screen

clock tower

Not exactly /vr/ but jesus christ this game was terrifying when I was <12.

Well, maybe because of the flying limbs?

>>1685809
Fucking howlers, man. Recently played through this again, still a great game.

>Enter room
>Walk forward
>All the doors shut and the lights go out
>Nothing but darkness and the sound of demons scratching
>Move forward a little bit more
>All literal hell breaks loose and I'm surrounded by demons with nothing but a shotgun and chainsaw to defend myself against their vicious claws and fire balls

Doom was such a rush back then. I blame it for my addiction to fear.

>>1685897
well looking back now those sprites were at least unsettling.

Ashamed to say it but the Nightmare Buzz fight freaked me the fuck out as a kid.

>>1687132
Christ, anon, why did you have to show that?

Nothing you fucking pussies. Ever.

>Goat Simulator
playing that as a kid and seeing other goats do those things freaked me the fuck out

anybody else remember looking in a mirror in the Evil Dead game on PSX?

literally the first room and i couldn't even go further than that

>>1684320
>that last level that had a room to the left from where you start.
>you had to travel all the level only to realize something is missing and then going back all the way.

It's the only thing I remember, and that bloody cactus.

>>1685343
Yeah, my dad had the same fatherly style, I couldn't play mortal kombat because he would get angry at me.

The constant tension made my stomach go nuts and I start farting like there was no tomorrow, there were a point where my dad only needed to smell a little to know if I was playing something I shouldn't be playing and scold me while everything smelled like fart, I don't have fond memories of those days.

>>1687486
What the fuck

>>1677279
I remember not looking at the ceiling in my room for months because of this jerk!

don't tell me that the original sprite of bowser didn't look fucking demented

This game scared the bejesus out of me. First, all is calm. Then you hear the gobbling in the distance. Next thing you know, you being charged by a swarm of evil turkeys. These fuckers were aggressive too. Don't even get me started on the giant mutant clones with big deformed heads or the grey aliens towards the end.

>>1675336
>>1677225
>>1677279

How the hell did you guys manage to not yet mention redead?
>They freeze you at a glance
>They howl an unholy soulless howl when they ensnare you in their paralysis
>They slowly, slowly walk towards you, and you're sitting there wiggling your joystick, mashing every button, praying that you break free
>And then jump on you and rape you

I race OoT every year and I still get the Sun's Song every time and freeze every room that has a redead in it. Yes, I know it's a waste of time, but I just have to.

>>1671973
My cousin made me watch her play it when I was super young. Traumatized the shit out of me. I slept with the blankets pulled over my head until I was like 12 because I thought the zombies couldn't get me that way. She also made me sit through Steel Harbinger. Anybody remember that piece of shit? Tons of gore, though. There was a scene where someone got impaled by tentacles or something- but it fucked me up.

I was equally horrified of ReDeads- like, to the point where I couldn't bring myself to play Brawl with items on. Once, when I was playing OoT, I got stuck in Hyrule Castle Town and, being a dumb stupid idiot baby- didn't understand that "Save" doesn't save you from the situation. Every time I turned on the N64, I was right back in that spot. Awful.

I remember walking in on another game being played- a body was stuffed in a washing machine or something. I wanna say it was like Blood 2 or something, but that gave me so many chills- I couldn't play games with gore in them for a loooooong time.

Sorry for the tl;dr, just get super autist about my babby memories with games that really aren't that scary in retrospect. I'm a lot less of a chickenshit now. More importantly, I think my cousin had a baby like super young so revenge I guess.

>>1671867
For me it was House of the Dead 2. Shit scared me when I was little. Now it's hilarious with their awful voice-acting. Played the shit out of it when I grew up.

>>1687823
>And then jump on you and rape you

Which, to a 9 year old, is incredibly funny, completely removing any factor that may have scared a kid at that time.

>be 4 year old me in 1998
>older cousin gets resident evil 2
>scares shit out of me
>I'm crying like a little bitch but still engrossed in him fighting these disgusting bosses
>I leave and go home
>come back next week
>mfw I'm taking a nap
>wake up
>pic related is standing in front of my face
>I literally shit my pants and start crying

Can't let you do that, Avatar!

Ultima 7 wasn't scary per se, except for this motherfucker. This shit is even scarier when you don't have voice acting on. Every time the Guardian would say something, instead of hearing his disembodied voice, his head pops up on screen to say what he's going to say. And as a kid my age, it was the scariest shit ever. Seriously gave me a few nightmares.

>>1673948

Man, I was getting scared from the transformation scene alone.

>>1672028
The theme song kicked ass, though.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypNPxwnppU0

I was absolutely TERRIFIED of this room.

I have no idea why. It was probably because of the combination of the texture and the water. It just looked so terrifying to me.

As a result I never entered hazy mazy cave and never beat Mario 64.

>>1687809
My wife hates birds because of this game alone
Somehow the turkeys scared her enough to just hate all birds

>playing silent hill 1 for the first time
Hmmm. Seems like a pretty cool supernatural/mystery game.
>suddenly this
U WOT MATE?

Myst. Probably because even as a kid I was conditioned that video games use nothingness as a way of lulling the player so they can be startled by something jumping out at them. I was paranoid as hell when I first played it and kept expecting something to happen.

>>1690161

>>1693254
i could see that being pretty traumatic to a youngster. i was about 5 when we first got an NES, and I remember I had a nightmare that I was playing one of the night levels like 3-2. And there were little bolts of lightning coming down, and i just remember it being really vivid, or like i was practically standing inside the screen and the game was this huge world in front of me.

i can't imagine what i'd be thinking if a fucking zombie just scream-raped me to death in a filthy dungeon.

>>1673763
Goddamit that fucking scorpion! I think I was fucking 7 when I got that game. walking into that place, not knowing what to do then seeing that fucking thing, crawling around then just picking you up and stinging you to death.
Fuck, man.

To This day I cant play The first resident evil an I flat out refuse to play any Silent hill game.
PERIOD

>>1687847
Sweet christ! now I don't feel like such a loser for being scared of Steel Harbinger as a kid. A friends stepdad played this one afternoon and that shit scared me for life.

How hasn't anyone mentioned Friday the 13th for NES yet?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwcDCkK_les&feature=player_detailpage#t=185

This particular scene in RE2 scared the fuck out of me so much when I was younger I was in tears. If the link didn't work right, fast forward to 3 minutes in. Another game that scared me was Diablo. I could not handle the atmosphere from that game for some reason and would chicken out every time I tried to play. Lastly, Armored Core 1. Not the whole game, but some segments, like pic related, creeped me the fuck out because I didn't know what would come out at me from the darkness. The lack of music during these parts didn't help, either.

Hey guys remember when there was no rating system for games and you'd be 7 years old playing a funzany adventure game from the guys that brought you monkey island... and someone would have their fleshed ripped apart with actual 256color gore?

>>1695875
That smile

>>1693646
I remember exploring the old base that was flooded with an acidic, armor eating compound on AC1, it was dead silent except for the bots that attack you and the doors you open. It was fairly creepy because you had to be quick before you died from too much damage, and you weren't really sure what was in there.

In "Adventures in the Magic Kingdom" if you jump immediately when the Haunted Mansion starts, you jump higher than should be allowed, causing you to hit the spectre.
If this happens, instead of Mickey Mouse telling you to try again, you'll get a detailed sprite of the Master Spectre.

This sprite appears nowhere else in the game.
I found it by accident and it scared the living shit out of me.

>>1672805
I couldn't even get through the Deku tree when I was a lad. I was spooked. I felt so cool when I finally go to Hyrule Field I promptly ran up to the nearest Peahat, and screamed when it emerged from the ground and shut off my N64.

>n64, as a lad
>activate cranky kong mode

>>1695878
That one's from Loom right?

Can anyone please upload a pic of Bobbin's face? I read in many places that you can see it if you play the game on expert mode, but I never managed to find it.

>>1696032
I'll look tomorrow. Not sure. Might have been in a later mo key island game. Maybe a weird version. I o Ly played through cga all the the way

Fuck those dogs. I was too scared to play it after that... ended up just watching my older brother play the game.

>the dining room....

the piano in mario 64 that chases you and tried to bite you

>>1687923
>>1672637
Can't even tell what games these are from. Wouldn't mind looking them up for something to play if I could get their names.

>>1685368
You are not alone. The first time I saw this in the arcade and the shocking reveal that you're not a person but a machine--and then exploding violently upon your death--gave me the creeps. But I was terrified of the Terminator at the time.

..I love the theme to the first level though.

>>1696032
>>1696040
Couldn't find Bobbin's face.

Jesus christ Chaos though. Fucking > Kefka. The hero doesn't even beat him. The hero grabs his corner of the universe and says 'fuck you all, you deal with him'
AFTER Chaos has killed almost every major NPC, you get a brief tour going back and looking at them all fucked up, blood pooling around their bodies. He rends your aunt apart infront of you, even the most powerful healing spell in the game can't help her. That spell does fucking FINE on a kid that was ripped apart by a dragon. But this? No. Fuck your healing bullshit. I RENT YOUR FUCKING AUNT, AND I CAN REND THIS UNIVERSE.

>>1697395
>I RENT YOUR FUCKING AUNT

I didn't know she was an escort

>>1697404
'Rending' is a spell for ripping things apart.
Other people interpret it as 'unmaking' though so that's probably correct, I haven't played the game in ages.

this shitlord

This nigga was the only thing I remember really scaring me when I was a kid. Had some kind of phobia of getting eaten. Thank fuck I didn't turn out with a vore fetish.

>>1697961

Same problem with Jak and Daxter for me. Polite sage for not retro

>>1671973
And then JILL SANDWICH and IT'S FOREST OH MY COD

>>1696032
>>1697395

Yeah, it's pretty tough.

I guess I'll just have to play the game myself again on expert difficulty, but seeing that there were multiple versions, the one I have might not have it. And google's a bitch.

Thanks for trying though.

Don't even remember the name of it anymore, but since it has been some 20-odd years I guess it's understandable.

If I recall correctly it was a first person perspective RPG/action like EOB, LOL, Stonekeep etc, but the one thing that stood out was the death of the player. If you failed the combat you got a gruesome closeup of your head, with even the trachea visible I think. I could put up with any other games that had scary moments, but that one...just nope.

>>1698364
Yeah, some images just burn into your brain.

>>1696302
They are Doom 64 and Space Hulk respectively

"Oh... I'm dying!"

>>1698362
tvtropes says it's a flash of light. You do get to see Cobb unmade though.

>>1673948
This. I saw it being played at a rich kid's party on a big screen TV. Shit was intense and way darker than the stuff I was used to at that age, yet I found it compelling as hell despite being spooked. Also, at the same party, I played the Japanese version of Actraiser on his Super Famicom while all the other kids were outside. I'll never forget the way the music that plays on the map screen filling the big empty room while I sat on the fancy ass carpet.

God damn shit was so magical at that age.

>>1698384
I tried playing Waxworks and that actually got me to nope out of the game even as a grown ass man. That fucking cave level, mang.

>>1671867
Although I never got to play it as a kid, the intro to Splatterhouse 3 would have likely made me shit my pants, especially the part with the ghosts roaring out of that spinning gemstone. I can only imagine what that would have sounded like coming from the subwoofer of the living room TV I had at the time.

>>1700601
Also, that scene where you fail to save Jennifer would have made me take sloppy second shit in my pants.

Heart of Darkness.

Small Soldiers for the PS1

The whole game is just really creepy and gothic.

>>1699798
This was gold. After I first saw it, I had dreams about it for years. Still makes me uneasy to think about or play it to this day. Encountered it at just the right age I guess.
It's great for its bleak theme too, visuals aside. That downer ending is great, though it could have done without the last two stages imo. It climaxes at that scene.

It's one thing to have intimidating box art, but the size of the box made it even spookier. I semi-wanted to play Earthbound whenever I saw it in the rental stores but either it was already checked out or something else caught my eye more.

>>1673953

I don't care what you think, thanks to this game and song, for the longest time I couldn't pick up a controller for this game for years. This gave me nightmares.

Mario

>>1705345
I'd imagine one of the devs or their friends/relatives. They would then just draw over a silly pose.

>>1685809
I was a bit older than that when I played it the first time, but this room is the only time a game has ever made me actually quit the game and pace around a bit.

>>1687486

>>1703103
I really like that pistol for some reason.

These levels man. I literally couldn't play them and walked out while tasking my friend with beating it - and I was like 10 at the time and played quite a bit of Resident Evil and Parasite Eve and other survival/action horror. Nothing quite unsettled and outright scared me as these fucking levels in Gex 3, though. It was probably the sheer surreal contrast with the rest of the "colourful platformer about a mascot with attitude" game, but they fucking chilled me until I started seeing things and walked out. Those fucking pictures on the walls and in the elevator man.

I was scared to swim down that pit under Clanker in Banjo-Kazooie. It was just so deep and dirty...

Also the Whompas and sewer monsters in Shadows of the Empire.

>>1677542

The sun level of SMB3. That fucker scared the wits out of me for some reason and I never got past that level until a few years later.

as a little kid I absolutely loved that level. that game holds up so well today. controls are a tad bit wonky though.

FUCK my HEAD

The last half of this level is the only thing that has ever scared me in any videogame.

This game was so dark and creepy. The deaths were so fucking cruel man. Not to mention flying shadow demon fuckers. Anyone else?

>>1707138
man, that game was like...integral to my childhood. i want to go back and play it again so badly, but i dont wanna ruin the memories

>>1707146
Oops, posted before writing. The fear of getting caught by the abbot (left dude in black robes) when you were wandering around the abbey at night (you are not allowed to do so) was more than I could handle. And the white eyes of the other monk... He's blind btw.

Corridor 7. Holy shit. The music was terrifying! And the last boss on Wolfenstein 3D had me shitting my self too.

Also in Ocarina of Time when the citizens of Hyrule become zombies

>>1671867
OP gets it. I tried to tell people recently that this was scary, but they just couldn't see it that way.

This looks sick. What is it?

>>1707207
La Abadia del Crimen, it's a spanish game based in the name of the rose book for the Amstrad CPC which was also ported to other systems of the time. It's regarded as one of the best (if not the best) spanish game from the 8-bit age, but it's only known in Spain because of the language barrier. There are a bunch of remakes, I don't know if any of them include english language.
You can check it out here (proper game starts around 8:15):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDBDAVxwIxo

I don't know why this game scared me to death and Resident Evil was like a walk in the park on a sunny day.

>>1671902
I played it recently and got scared by it more than by any other game (and I'm someone who played almost all survival horror games that exist).

You'd have reasons to be ashamed if Fatal Frame 2 wouldn't scare you.

Never had these games growing up, but they still scare the piss out of me.

Waxworks. Fucking Waxworks. So many ways to die, so much fucking detail in every death. You get stabbed? Oh a gory representation of your limbs being pried off.You look in water? Hows about an animation of an alligator jumping up and dragging you under? Fuck that shit.

Resident Evil 2. Haven't play any other ones, and haven't given this a fair chance either. Saw the introduction, that fucking face showed up. Noped the fuck out of there.

The most recent? Clock Tower on the Playstation. It created such an atmosphere, such a fucking atmosphere. No music, just the drone of older computers in the office. Just the footsteps. Just the door. And it didn't fucking help that the game was so predictable. At least, right before you knew it had to inevitably happen. "Could you turn out the lights?" FUCK NO. NO DONT ANSWER THE FUCKING DOOR. STOP KNOCKING NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I really hate that they gave away the enemy on the fucking cover though.

When I was a kid though, no games were detailed enough to really be scary, and I thank the world for that. But on the other hand, my family forced me to watch horror movies which I don't think is any better.

>>1686431
That boss and the level you had to rescue the alien plushies were nightmare fuel for me.

>>1671867
Quake 1, because of the zombie moan.

I accidentally let one of these fuckers out in the second level without noticing. Turned around, and he was swinging his fuckin' fists at me already. Fucking jumped and almost threw my controller.

>>1673905
I had an unknown urge to make this. Something must have possessed me. Please accept it.

>not getting the post is sarcastically making fun of a spelling error
C'mon now.

I don't even know how I got my hands on this game, but whenever I turned it on and that first monster grunted, I shit my pants and hastily flipped the N64's power switch. This went on for a couple years until I gladly sold it.

Now that I've played it recently, it's not scary, but it's so hard to play because it's such a shitty game.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iez2Ks1Pybo

Whenever I was going to lose my last hero/town in HoMM games and those freaking beheading screens were about to come up I would just pull the plug on the computer or at least turn off the monitor and the speakers for a few minutes. Too intense for my younger self

>>1707850
Because JENOVA and THAT MUSIC.

Castlevania 64. To this day, that game scares the mother fucking shit out of me for some reason.

made me cry

hahaha...this game creeped me the hell out

ODDWORLD FOR THE PS1. FUCK THAT GAME.

oh god, my cousins used to make me play Mortal Kombat Trilogy with them and I always hated it. The game scared me in general, but these damn trees just terrified me...

>>1695875
Shit, man. I remember all too well.

Almost two decades after, I'm still literally having a mild anxiety attack every time I play or see any part of this game now,

>>1717205
>"for some reason"
>as if hedgemaze levels aren't a universal panic trigger for anyone who played them when they were 7 years old

I can't think of a part in Castlevania 64 that was more terrifying than that sequence...except maybe when you have to GO BACK IN AFTER THAT SEQUENCE TO GET THROUGH THE LEVEL HOLY FUCKING SHIT MAN.

That's saying a lot though, as there were many parts of that game which made me nervous.

Amongst several other scenes from Myst, this one spooked me the most.

>>1671973
Agreed, watching my brother and aunt play RE1 and 2 and eventually Code Veronica messedme up so bade I couldn't play 4 until like 2 weeks ago.

I mean I played 5 like almost 4 years ago but that doesn't quite count, especially since it was co-op.

I remember always trying to quickly press start so I didn't have to see liu kang die.
I still find this screen unsettling.

>>1717406
I remember my babysitter getting this and letting us play.
Instead of being disturbed or scared I thought it was awesome.

>>1718771
i thought that was badass when i was a kid. its like some weird sonic/batman crossover

>>1718864
The creepy music combined with the image scared the hell out of me as a kid. It doesn't get to me like it did when I was younger, but the second image is still quite unsettling to me.

It's laughably aged now, but back in the day it kept me awake at night I was so scared. It was an atmospheric creepiness too. My first experience with that sort of thing.

>Mfw I am desensitized
>Mfw I can't really get anything past a jumpscare

I remember playing Silent Hill 1 and not being scared. I thought the game was freaking cool, especially how they took the PS1 graphics and made it actually spooky. It's literally a piece of art in its own right.

However, there was one part that always scared me.

About 3/4 through the game, you're running around in the streets while it's in nightmare mode and everything is dark and black. You turn around running and a bunch of random monsters starts chasing you. When you're running away you're suddenly greeted by two or three giant rat-like mole people coming at you which you've never seen before.

And then the music starts...

http://youtu.be/I4J2gBFiM0A?t=35m10s

>>1721027

Start the video at 35minutes and 10 seconds..

Fucking plugins...

>>1721027
Ah...yes, even if you know the game by memory, that part never fails to be stressful.

That and the fight with the school boss while playing on hard.

>>1693346
Fuck Archviles with a rake, I play Brutal sometimes just for the chance to hurt them in more creative ways

When I was around 5 (maybe younger), I was watching my brothers play this game. It was cool, I was really into it. Then that bitch in the rose garden yells at you about getting near her roses. This scared the ever living shit out of me for no reason whatsoever. I hid in a closet and cried. After this, they would play the scene or yell "King's Quest roses!" whenever I pissed them off.

Looking back, that whole thing is fucking hilarious.

Anybody else?

Remember that CD's collection where there was this kind of "hub" that you could explore to acess the contents of the cds? it was a white building, with a lot of non-straight passageways.
Well, there was a CD about felines, and it was also a building to explore. From time to time, lions and things like that would appear, at first I would try to "hunt" them, but then one of them made a weird sound. I never was able to put the CD in my computer again.

>>1672757
>That shitstorm when you disturb that sitting ghost

>>1717205
Despite all its problems, that game had fucking great atmosphere. Compelling enough to keep me playing to the end. The sparse music, the ambient sounds, that feeling of isolation, and the surreal-ness once you get into the castle proper, it all adds up.

>>1717223
This. It didn't scare me all that much, but some of the more hellish setpieces felt really disturbing. The acid pool one is creepy too for some reason. Something about how stark and quiet it is, coupled with the purpose of the pool and the whole room.

I was not prepared for the final lake.

>>1671973
Played RE1 when I still didn't have a memory card the fear of dying and having to start over made the game unbearably stressful

Later we showed RE to my friend's younger brother.He and his little buddies starting playing it and one little shit freaked out that Hunters are real. He locked himself in the bathroom and didn't come out till his parents came for him.

I know for a fact this isn't retro, but the water dragon that FUCKING CHASES YOU in Okami still scares me.

Woaaah man, i played that thing way back when i was like 4-5 years old in a really old computer my dad had. Those fucking sounds and graphics were so weird and creppy man.

This whole level.
For some reason i have always been scared of the deep ocean, and this level was pure darkness and in the end this fucker appears. I had to ask my brother to play the level for me so many times...

Pretty much any Quake/Quake2 enemy made me shit my shit my pants except the human soldiers.

Pic related, fuck the sound he makes when he spots you, and fuck the fiends/shamblers from the original game.

>>1740662
pussy fuck

i don't know if this really counts as being scared but i would get so upset when the little flying things would kidnap baby mario in yoshi's island. like it would legit depress me and i'd have to stop playing so it was actually a pretty intense game for me considering i wasn't very good at it and would get hit a lot.

Doom has a much better feel than either of the Quake games that are /vr/. In fact, no game, imo, has quite the atmosphere it has. It's about a time and place in our lives for sure, but I think it also exists independently of that.
