A scary experience. ("We don't go to ravenholm")

First of. Hello

It's about 5:45 in the morning and i decided to post this Before going to bed (been at work)

 

So today i was shopping at a Swedish equivalent of walmart. and while i was waiting in line to buy a carton of smokes a baby made a noise behind me. 

Obviously this is not normally a problem. but this hellspawn behind me did not sound like a normal baby!

It made almost exactly the same noise that the venomous headcrabs in half Life 2 makes! (that shrill effin scream thing!)

I almost jumped straight out of my boots when i Heard that... And i spun around with a look of complete terror on my face.. only to be met by confused looks..

That felt like a perfect moment for the cliché Vietnam comment. "You dont know man! you weren't there!"

 

And that got me thinking. Has anyone else had any game related scares irl?
(you can add a funny non game related scare too if you want too :P)

 

Just thought i'd share this with you guys here in the off topic section.

Picture is vaguely relevant

Maybe not jumps or scares but after playing skyrim all sneaky like I found myself creepin around everywhere. As in taking quiet steps, peaking around corners, avoiding the gaze of others, plotting last minute assassinati....um....ya

The closest I get is bangs or whizzes that sound like a .50 flying past your head.

If this topic takes off then you have to start paying some sort of credit to the guys that say gaming has a bad psychological effect. :ph34r:

^This. I do the same thing. Mostly though when it's dark. I try to move around is as much darkness as possible and wear dark clothing to remain unseen... Darkness is your friend.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

I've played too much Minecraft that when I'm playing something like F1 2012 and I here a creeper sizzle (from a youtube video) I will jump out of my chair and crash my car. Gets me every time. Annoying as hell.
