19 Scariest Video Game Moments Of The Decade (So Far)

1. Every Single Second - P.T.

Two words: Deformed fetus. If there's anything guaranteed to haunt your every waking moment for weeks, months (and probably even years) after experiencing P.T., it's the sight of a crying, deformed fetus laying in a grungy, disease-ridden sink. And that's just the first volley. This 'Playable Teaser' places you in the corridor of an empty house, and as you make your way through the rooms and halls you'll begin to notice changes taking place which range from deceptively innocuous to outright alarming. Some are subtle - a noise here, a thud there. Maybe the odd line or two from the radio. But just when you start to think you're finally getting a handle on your environment, the corridor loops the second you step through a door, throwing your sense of equilibrium out the window. Every loops ramps up the intensity, and before long the lights go out, and a ghost materializes out of thin air. It's not easy to evoke terror on such a primal level the way P.T. has, but the teaser strings along scares and builds upon on each one with such masterful pacing that the end result is not unlike a nightmare that wraps itself around your brain and warps every fiber of your reality. P.T. was the best damn thing the genre's seen in decades, and it's downright tragic that we'll never see what Del Toro/Kojima had up their sleeves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZJu-wyoWr4 What do you think is the scariest moment of the decade so far?
