The scariest game I ever played was Friday 13th for the Amstrad. You'd be moving your character around searching for Jason, and whenever he murdered someone a bloody hockey mask would pop up on screen accompanied by a scream coming from the speakers. Scared the **** out of me first time I played it.
One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.
For atmosphere you can't beat this one adventure game about the Lovecraftian mythos. I forget its name though.

Well, how about Alien vs. Predator playing marines? That's the scariest game I've ever played, never got past level 3 purely because I was too scared to continue

You wanna see me spank my monkey?
I'll shake your hand later, I have an...itch.
Another vote for System Shock II. Damn, the final stages were so creepy that it took me a while to simply have the guts to finish the game. I still get shivers every now and then.
Honourable mention to the first Resident Evil game which scared the shiat out of me years ago.

3. you have to be the only person in the house
4. play any game
5. start hearing/seeing things

the very first level was quite scary. IIRC, you get a hint where the aliens are hiding but that doesn't help much. neither does waiting for them to arrive on their own.
It was then when I decided to finish the game as a predator first.
AvP Excellent use of the motion tracker "blips" too, even when you knew they were coming close (from above or below) it made it much scarier.

especially because you couldn't see them coming, but still your motion tracker kept saying they were approaching...

The Myst games were somewhat scary. The fact that there is almost zero character interaction always creeped me out a little. Plus, I always felt I was being watched for some reason.

Aliens V Predator 2 certainly had it share of jumpy moments, but I never felt as on edge as with SS2.....I think the story was just more engrossing. AVP2 was more about quick frights.
