Your scariest video game moments

[RaNkeri]

Just curious to know what have been the most scariest moments you've experienced in video games. I usually don't get scared very easily, but when I do I'm always close at having a heart attack.

What I can think of for now are the following:

Resident Evil:

When I was playing the for the first time with my friend at the age of 9, I remember how we both jumped up and screamed like little girls when we had the first encounter with a zombie dog who jumped through the window. For my shame the same occurred almost immediately when another dog jumped through the window.

There was also this part where you are in a room with one body on the floor and a table in front of a closet. There's a diary on the table which is written by some -if I remember it right- scientist who was infected with the virus. On the last page of the diary the scientist has turned into a zombie and written something like "tasty". When you've finished reading the diary, the zombified scientist rushes out of the closet and the body lying on the floor also resurrects as a zombie.

It's quite funny how after playing RE I've never gotten scared by similar scenes in other horror games. (Like RE2 and SH) Probably because nowadays it's way too easy to predict such scenes.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein:

Sure the game it self didn't have any horror themes or such and therefore couldn't predict anything frightening to happen. I was playing the game last summer with my friend. I was in the X-labs where the mutants had escaped. I was walking in a hallway when suddenly a lifeless body of a scientist is bashed against a bulletproof glass next to me. My character wasn't in any danger, but I was completely caught by a surprise, I fell down from my chair while my friend let out a mixture of scream and laughter. The shock I had was so huge that I couldn't stood up for a minute or so.
