Have Any Games Made You Feel Uncomftable?

[Dan]

Have any video games really drawn the line perhaps, have they made you feel uncomfortable, for me i kind of felt rather uncomfortable about the whole sonic 06 ordeal but a hedgehog kissing a human, wow wow wee wa whoa no!

I find the concept of fishing games unnerving.

Slenderman, nothing scary about it and it doesn't make me jump or anything, but the bordom of watching some guy play it poorly, gives me a feeling in which I just can't sit still. Lacks music, it's supose to be quite with just breathes for a more realistic feelin I guess but the breaths or so bad that it doesn't pull you in making the whole lack of music really annoying and overall makes me feel uncomfortable seeing that game being played.

Silent Hill 2. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE how uncomfortable this game made me feel, but nnnnnngh is it one giant mind****. @_@

I can't really say any have, except for that part of MGS2 where you're naked.... and I was seriously hoping the entire time that my parents wouldn't walk in during that section. XD

Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Zero have made me very uncomfortable on my first runs of each respective game.

Skyward Sword during the Demise revival and Super Mario Galaxy during the end with Rosalina...both for the same reason: "What if my friends saw me playing this? <.<"

OOT's Shadow temple on my first play through was pretty uncomfortable. I really did not want to have to be there

I hate it when I have to sneak around in games, it's my least favorite thing in games. Oh, and I HATED the Silent Realms in SS, the eerie feeling and the guardians looming over you if you couldn't reach a drop in time :S

 

[DarkestLink]

Honestly, though, just playing a game never makes me feel uncomfortable...game fanbases though are another story...

F.E.A.R.
I stopped playing for a week after a certain segment in the game. The first FEAR was great. Psychological terror is best. The rest were ****.

Amnesia for a bit as well, but it quickly wore off.

The Great Fairy in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask... *shivers*

The Great Fairy in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask... *shivers*

Ha ha! I was playing OoT the other day with my 5 year old cousin in the room. He can't read well enough to effectively play a game, so he watches me...and his Mom comes in right when I get to the Great Fairy--could be worse...she could have seen me in the Shadow Temple. XD

I find the whole concept of SPC Containment Breach pretty unnerving. After playing it, it's pretty hard not to look behind you for a wall hugger.

While I think the nonsense about video games causing violence is just that, nonsense, the people who claim the GTA games glorify and actively encourage some of the most vile and despicable criminal behavior are right. GTA has no tact what-so-ever, and it's not one of those games where the behavior is purely optional and discouraged, but rather unavoidable and challenges arise from committing such acts. Not only that but the vulgarity and profanity and racism and sexism and homophobic nature prevalent in the dialog is just sickening and gut wrenching to watch. Some people think GTA some subtle satire, but there is nothing meaningful or subtle about it.

The Little Sisters in the Bioshock games are pretty disturbing. Not only are they brainwashed children made to engage in some pretty sick twisted activities involving blood and corpses, but you have to kill this monster - another brainwashed human being in an armored diving suit - who the child has been brainwashed to have an emotional bond as a father figure with. After that, in order to get what amounts to experience points, you're given the choice of "rescuing" the girl or "harvesting" her for bonus points. Yes, a moral decision that is left up to the player. Makes me wonder about the players who would chose to harvest and kill a little girl for bonus points, even if it can be seen as doing the child a favor in some back @$$wards sort of reasoning.
