Can't be bothered registering with a forum to post there once and never 
return, so I'll mention Thief 2: The Metal Age here, playing it on a 32" WS TV 
at 3am with the sound going loudly-ish through headphones.

In one level (lots of purple I remember) when I was high up in an alcove and 
was looking down to an area where three of those big, loud metal creatures 
that look like something out of The Fifth Element had been rampaging around. 
I'd previously just escaped out of their way.

The next thing they did was to get close to each other and face each other. 
They stayed there for about 10 minutes. I figured they'd shut down...

Then they all walked off somewhere out of sight. I thought "Ha! Suckers!"

A couple of minutes later I turned round to leave the alcove. As I turned to 
leave one of them was RIGHT next time me. It screeched out loud and shot me 
with a fireball. I only had half a second to look in horror, like a scene out 
of "Alien" before I was dead.

Both this and the original Resident Evil on the PSX are only two games that 
spring to mind as really scaring the shit out of me, particularly when playing 
that late at night.
