I have 5.1 surround and nothing is scarier than having the lights in the game shut off, everything have a redish tint to it (you'll have to see it kind of hard to explain) and hear the "Devil" laughing. I have to stop playing sometimes because it messes with me. These are the types of games the gaming industry should be making more of

I had pretty much the same experience except swap out the 5.1 for some headphones. I nearly shit myself once when my girl came up behind me and placed her hand on my shoulder at the exact moment some baddie leapt out at me. When my heart slowed down I politely asked her to never do that again. Great atmosphere, great gaming moment.
