101 Scariest Video Game Moments Of All Time

[@HDzav]

Man I really love triple jump they’re always putting so much effort into their videos and the music in the background is so relaxing

[@martinward3084]

Perfect for bedtime I throw one on and drift away

[@M00SHTY]

Love it. I really like your massive lists and scariest moments is right up my alley.

​@@ItsMeBarnaby😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@ryanmarshall778]

Resident Evil 7 is a fantastic first horror game to go with. You don’t really need to play the others to get the full story is the best part & it’s sort of a side story in my opinion for the franchise.

[@steelcurtain187]

This was quite the undertaking 😮 you outdid yourself on this one!

[@devonbrandenburg6193]

I gotta say, ranking and any other arguments aside, nothing has given me more nostalgia than TripleJump. Keep up the excellent videos!

[@galahadortiz3258]

Awesome list and glad to see some of my suggestions on there. I wish I would have included the first appearance of Michael Davies in Faith, and the following Mortis that ensues.

[@Cornughon]

Great list! Props to the mentioning of that specific scene in Quake 4! I was kind of expecting Thief: Deadly Shadows' Shalebridge Cradle, since Thief (4)'s Moira Asylum is basically a (rather good, for an otherwise "just okay" game) rehash of that level.

[@TheConcertMack]

this is an incredible video. I don't agree with all, but agree with a lot. video games are great, and love your content!

[@nickerickson7324]

3:47 the other thing about Mr. X RE2 (at least in the remake) is by the time he shows up, you're usually low on ammo & left a couple Lickers roaming the station, & now you're forced to run thru them to get away from him

[@tobywhitford2440]

The cave episode was some of the best KZbin I’ve seen in a very long time feels like it’s finally getting good again Thankyou!

[@megaman7799]

1:16:35 "Silent Hill 3 is admittedly not the best game in the series" Didn't y'all put 3 as the best Silent Hill game on your own list?

[@icravedeath.1200]

I guess it's a different writer than that list.

[@carlosperen4238]

A great list, though I would have loved to see Dredge on here, and/or a wallmaster/gloom hand from Zelda *shudder*

[@Becauseimbrian]

Another outstanding effort. Well done all!

[@handleunavailable]

I feel like one of the main reasons behind letting multiple moments from the same game in has to be Resident Evil. Seeing the first zombie and the first encounter with the dogs both have to be in this list if we're being real.

[@carlosajames]

Brilliant and at 18:56 you can see a resident evil Easter egg in the evil within. Also the metro 2033 when you get grab by the librarian monster scared me and also hearing the dark ones voices.

[@botmidea1115]

Would love to see another list on this topic

[@JustinZarian]

I was so excited to contribute ideas on that KZbin community post for this video. It was fun to research and suggest! And yes, it was a long list. I just wanted to make sure you guys had as many options as possible to make the best video you could. I am going to watch through this all right after work. Hope you are all well, Team TripleJump!

[@ThePizzaGoldfish]

2:11:21

[@miketaylor9544]

The Evil Within series is super underrated in my opinion. I played them without knowing much about them other than they are horror games. Also didn't play them until about a year ago. I loved them so much. Also the Condemned games are fantastic and also underrated.

[@Cornughon]

Agreed! Both Evil Within games are so tense! The first Condemned indeed was a real gem! Never played it's sequel, since I was a PC gamer and "Bloodshot" never got a PC-port. And unlike the first game it's also not included in the Xbox backwards compatibility list, so I probably need an original X360 or PS3 for that sometimes in the future...

[@patcahill3724]

This list is very nice, great choices and all, but this list won't be the same without Giygas from Earthbound for example. But I'm still happy with all the choices in this video.

[@chefbreccia2642]

The Licker in RE2 jumping through the one-way mirror got me _every single time_.

[@Cynicayke]

Looking forward to remembering all the ways Majora's Mask traumatised me as a child.

[@SuperChucky007]

Awesome video. Just subbed. Keep up the awesome stuff

[@patanpuerco2125]

Shoulda named this list "102 scariest Legend of Zelda moments" instead. SHEEEEEEESHHHH!!!

[@KingKool2099]

I was waiting this ENTIRE TIME for number 9. I am glad it made it in, and I no longer have to write a letter.

[@luliby2309]

Hey! It's nice to see this list finally arrive after seeing that community post. I'm glad to have contributed. I am disappointed that _nothing_ from any Metroid game made it. There's...so many options to pick from. :(

[@nickwheeler5396]

I'll be damned if Resident Evil 4 wasn't a scary game. There are MANY scary things in there. The village, the giant mutant fish, the chainsaw man with the sack on his head, the entire church sequence, the burning barn battle. I mean the list goes on!

[@perfessorclown5543]

The regeneradors always scared me. Oh, and the bit with Ashley and the armor.

[@jaehaalexander1172]

Do you mean Del Lago? The giant salamander? The scariest part for me is the Regeneradors. The Ashley part was also very anxiety inducing in the Remake. Especially if you want the accomplishment of not using the lantern but you're also a completionist like me and can't leave treasures behind. That was insanity and I had to pause a couple times 😂😂😂

[@EGRAVEN-ge4nj]

Not technically in a game but the promotional material for Luigi’s mansion scared me so much when I first came across it

[@yemuz925]

Man did I hope you'd include shadow of rose. This was the scariest resident evil experience of my life. The monster baby part of the base game was scarry but the moving dolls were downright terrifying for me.

[@schlamuffenimperator9460]

I loved the Flatwood Monster cameo at the alien invasion in Majora's Mask.

[@lifeispuzzling]

Seeing the Cyberdemon in the original DOOM for the first time at seven years old definitely scared me. Nobody told me about id 😂

[@greggen63]

Came here to call out the Cyberdemon... Hats off to you. The level called Gotcha in Doom 2 where you walk in the room and a Cyberdemon and Spider Mastermind appear is probably my pick. Some terrifying moments in Doom, the use of lighting and jump scares was trailblazing.

[@greggen63]

There were some scary moments in the Hexen games, also by id, too. Sewer levels with poor lighting and creatures jumping out of the water.

[@ShortandSweet54]

I know it's more story mode, but in mk1 when Mileena was turning was really upsetting to see. The pain, her confusion and fear , it reminds me of zombie games when a seemingly uninfected person starts to turn or in Deadspace when one of the survivors turns infront of Isaac

[@icravedeath.1200]

Mortal kombat can have some really knarly body horror sometimes can't it.

[@PatrickWentzell-jd9gq]

I'm a horror fan so I always look forward to videos showing moments which gamers enjoy a lot . 👍👍

[@UncleDeadly1031]

I enjoy these lists and never post about what should have been on them, but the absence of The Shalebridge Cradle from Thief 3 (but the Thief reboot made the list…really?) or The Ocean House Hotel (Vampire- the Masquerade: Bloodlines) seems like a major oversight. Would have loved to have seen Clive Barker’s Undying featured, as well. I wouldn’t even be saying this if there weren’t so many entries for FF7!!! 🤦

[@neilmcgrory1720]

I came to the comments to see if anyone else felt the Ocean House Hotel should have been on the list.

[@raybrooks2429]

Shalebridge Cradle was an experience I'll never forget.

[@UncleDeadly1031]

[@bjorntantau194]

Aye, not including The Shalebridge Cradle is a crime itself. But showing the Thief reboot instead is a slap in the face.

[@buckshotter]

sad that Cry of Fear wasnt mentioned, especially the Sawrunner forest chase THAT SCENE WAS SCARY

[@sethrasmussen3375]

I absolutley love your number one spot and i personally think thats right where it needed to be. When i saw that as a kid i was terrified. Nightmares for months, my uncle was playing the game and i ran and hid behind his chair. I will never forget that scene.

[@ButteredToast32]

Sae in Fatal Frame 2 is far more frightening than the falling woman, what a strange choice.

Solid list. Although if I were to pick the most unnerving location in Bloodborne (my favorite game), I'd go with Upper Cathedral Ward. The ambient soundtrack alone is enough

[@joeydecesari8211]

How'd the suffering not make this list

[@dylanogg347]

Even after twenty years, the chase with Monster-Ock still horrified me. Doc Ock is a handful. Carnage is terrifying. Ock with the Carnage Symbiote is horrifying. Further amplified by Dee Bradley Baker's phenomenal performance.

[@TheLittleNoobThatCould]

I don't normally play horror games. I'm not entertained by them because I'm expecting for the game to try to scare me. That being said, I had The Outer Wilds recommended to me by a work colleague with no further context. The Dark Bramble was the most unnerving experience I've had in years of gaming.

Before the video even begins, if the Ocean View Hotel segment of Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines isn't on this list, its a bad list.

[@Mariusgrmg]

I’m amazed you haven’t included the first encounter of Volatile from Dying Light. It isn’t much of a jump scare, but when you have to get MRE during first night time mission! Oh gosh…! The setting and atmosphere it gives when you have to run away from them and can hear them coming for you from behind. You definitely clench your butt cheeks without even knowing. I know some people that even refuse to play during night on Dying light even being high level in Agility. It’s just too scary for some people. Also the run through the tunnel where the Volatiles spawn from everywhere. It’s such underrated game.

[@adamjudge2899]

I'd love to see a MegaMan games ranked video 💙

[@hayleynoellebroders8247]

I think what's so effective about the Angler Fish on Dark Bramble is that, chances are, the first time you encounter them, you aren't even aware of what the hell killed you. At that point of the game, you've likely just become aware of the time loop and confused as hell about what to do, where to go, etc. only that you need to discover things to make sense of your goals. so, naturally, you're frantically trying to see and do as much as you can before the supernova. You find yourself in this tiny cavern of a celestial body and the vibe just feels off; the fog obscures your vision and the overwhelming size of the fish skeleton, somehow more fitting here than in the sand caves (as if that's any consolation), gives you the impression that you're about to be met with a terrible fate. Then your controls go bad, noises get louder and, if you're unlucky enough to catch sight of what's about to cut you're run short, you die horribly and suddenly enough to make you shit yourself. It sets the precedent that while there are natural forces in this universe that do not care for your feelings or mushy little existence, there are still truly organic threats that no one was supposed to discover and live to tell the tale, because they will kill you exactly how they know best, and consciously to boot. It creates the impression that this is a place to be avoided at all costs, because you will not survive, and you will not want to try again. And then the game makes you go back, for real. It makes you face the unknown, even when, or if, you really don't want to. I think it's perfect.

It's really similar to the Tomb Raider entry, but as a kid the introduction of the Red-Eye King in Starfox Adventures was a shock against the rest of the game.

[@DancesRainyStreets]

It's already a long list, but there's lot's more, like the story about how the dreamers turn into Dagoth's servants through mind alteration and disease in Morrowind, or the final boss in the shoot 'em up Blazing Star for example. Then there's stuff that's equally terrifying and is not about horror, a game like S.W.A.T. 4 for example. While i do not agree with a lot of your lists, the time and effort to put these together is appreciated.

[@LandingPad1337]

you missed the scariest part about the MGS3 ghost walk-- the ghosts of your enemies can reflect how you killed them. For example, if you killed someone, let a vulture eat them, and then ate the vulture, the ghost will accuse Naked Snake of cannibalism.

[@TravisSchenck-x9x]

Great number 1. I was 15 working at blockbuster and we had just got in ps ones for renting and 3 test games resident evil, twisted metal, and wipeout.

Not the scariest I'll admit but I'm surprised the Zegnautus Keep portion of Final Fantasy XV didn't make the list.
