For me its gotta' be fallout 3, i was in a building and out of no where a super mutant starts yelling and attacks me with his hammer, i was literally startled! ahah but it felt cool to be so into a game world that something virtual could make me react that way. What about you guys?

Skyrim made me jump once, I was alone and in a tomb full of Draugr. I turned around and almost fell off my chair IRL -

I was suddenly face to face with Lydia within pointblank range, she had finally decided to catch up with me and sneak up from behind without making a sound.

Amnesia. All kinds of small things in that game startle the hell out of me.

I'm not sure if this is true but I read that Slender is not programmed to follow you but to predict where the player will go next... Can anyone beat the system? =0

Are we talking about non-horror? Jumped plenty of times at REmake and Condemned and Amnesia.

In Dark Souls, in the depths, there is a particular item you can loot as soon as you enter the knee high water, and out of sight there is always a slime on the roof that jumps you. Scared the absolute crap out of me the first time it happened, I was out of estus so I was already on edge. I used a homeward bone and just bailed.

I would jump and pounce things every time I won at Wii Sports Tennis.
SH3 was the scariest game I've ever played for me.

Last one was Dishonored. They heard me so I camped somewhere waiting for them to scout my location. I didn't notice the door behind me, and they came through there and instantly striked me. Screamed like a girl. Brother nearly had a heartattack.

You're right. A webcam in the living room would be a bit odd.

The most memorable was my first "horror" game, Resident Evil 4. I'm a real scaredy cat so I was really concentrating, preparing myself for the horror!

And after the first scene with the zombie in the house, there's this long path you walk. So I started walking, being a bit cautious and then to the left, there was this little shed and my inner rpg-soul immediately reacted so I dropped my mental guard, went "Oh exploration!" entered the shed and BAM some zombie with an axe or something jumped me. That really got me...

I think Horror games are the only ones able to achieve this. But i must give a special mention to Fallout 3/New Vegas those two games are a work of art indeed.

Resident Evil 3 is still jump scare king in my eyes -- it's so hard for me to tolerate playing it. But pertaining to this gen, only Amnesia and Condemned come to mind for now.

Amnesia is the only one that's ever had such an effect.

The first time I jumped with fear was when some crazy dog barked/attacked from nowhere in Tomb Raider. Stupid mutt. And the Silent Hill series.

Fallout 3, Dark Space, and Dementium are the only games that I can think of that actually made me jump, though there are a few horror games in my backlog that I still need to play...

They didn't have a game lol ( but don't quote me on that) he was just being funny because they had a hit single called "Jump Jump" hence why he wrote C wat i did thar at the bottom of the picture in small writing.

Fallout 3 comes to mind.

Those damn Metro tunnels filled with ghouls really got a scare out of me.
