My biggest 'HOLY SHIT!' moment was actually in the original Prince of Persia for PC.

I was kinda young, and not very used to games at all, my previous experience was Super Mario Bros. and that was about it.

So anyway, I was playing all alone in the house, and I finally started to make sense of that first dungeon level. I got the sword and everything. And suddenly that skeleton lying on the ground that I've been running past all these times stands up! And it attacks me with a sword!

I kid you not, I flew up from my chair and turned the computer off, and immedeatly called my mom. Then I was lying under my covers (so to speak), afraid I would get attacked by skeletons, waiting for mom to come home. I was in a state of fear for hours, and my mom had to play the game with me for me to face my fear and get over it.

Yeah, I was like 6 or 7, but I was an impressionable child, with a vivid imagination. No game has ever replicated that fear since, but a few movies have. But that's another story.

That's exactly what happened when I watched the movie "IT"............except I never got over clowns.

You think It was scary... Try being exposed to Poltergeist as a seven year old.

I still haven't recovered from either clowns or the dark space under beds.

Jesus Christ, look at this thing. It still gives me the eeby-jeebys.

I think that killergran has won the thread. I doubt any of us have had a bigger Holy Shit reaction than that.

What if I said that the same story happened to me, but I was 17 when it did

Damn it, I didn't think that something like that could possibly backfire on me :(

i think metal gear has the best surprises. the fight with psycho mantis was full of bloody epic win. when the screen turned into "HIDEO", i really left my couch and started checking the a/v cables and the next moment, i was dead.

 

 Everytime someone in my room sees that, they always think something messed up.....I still think it's stupid :/  

My "holy shit" moment was probably watching Shiek turn into Zelda in OoT.

When the zombie things appeared in Uncharted. I didn't expect that at all.

 

 Less reason for me to buy the game now  u_u

Sorry about that, someone else said something about the zombies in this forum and I thought oh wth probably already spoiled it for people. I guess not.

When Kefka killed Leo and took over the world.



Final-Fan on 19 December 2008

Leo was bad enough, but what about Cid?  That was almost as bad as Aeris and he wasn't even in the party!

Wait, sorry, that's more "depressing" than "HSM".  I momentarily forgot the thread topic.
