10 Dreaded Enemies That Every Gamer Avoids

7. Pyramid Head - Silent Hill 2

Resident Evil Nemesis
Konami

Pyramid Head is an icon of horror. He is the defining monster from the Silent Hill series, and he is easily one of the most recognisable enemies ever. And whilst he has sort of ascended into the gaming pantheon, the fact still remains that he is horrifying to come up against.

Having an un-movable, un-killable monstrosity stalking you through the game is incredibly tense, and most players learn to simply run at the slightest hint of his arrival. It doesn't help that the game purposefully uses its camera to force you into the most stressful scenarios.

He is easily one of the reasons why Silent Hill 2 is considered one of the greatest horror games of all time, and whilst time may have dulled the initial dread that he created, he is still one of the most formidable and monstrous enemies to come up against.

I like video games, writing and writing about video games. Expect sarcasm and the dry wit of a Brit. And the occasional rant of a unhappy Scot. You know... the usual.
