[Rosenstern]

The fight with Psycho Mantis in MGS 1 freaked me out when the game system "turned off". There's a part in the back of your brain that knows it was scripted because the part of your screen that normally says "video" in digital green letters now says "Hideo", but you're mostly hust confused with hairs standing up on the back of your neck. A genius moment in gaming.

Also, the Arsenal Gear section in MGS II was scary in its own way, as, at two am, slightly drunk, and with the lights out, it really feels like the world around you has turned into a giant computerized lie.
