15 Most Terrifying Moments In Non-Horror Video Games
8. The Flood's Arrival - Halo: Combat Evolved
Certainly not scary anymore now we're used to them, but at the time of their arrival the Flood were unsettling, their noises, their movement, their original selves moulded into their design. Nothing prepared you for them, only small chatter now and then about something The Covenant were afraid of, now you know why.
You watched a video from a soldier's perspective of the Flood tearing their squad apart and when it ends you realise, you're right in the middle of it. The Infector Forms burst in and surround you, attempting to chow down on your armour. Soon you face the combat forms as they leap great distances to beat the hell out of you as well as the fat, pudgy carrier forms that pop like unstable balloons, filling the area with more infectors.
Something that put you off your food back in 2001.
