hello games posters, its me, a spider covets what are some of your favorite video game monsters? there are lots of monsters out there. some of them are scary, some of them are funny, some of them are even sexy. i like the scary ones the most. please post about your favorite monster or enemy and tell us why they are the best. i like gaping dragon a lot because he's huge and looks like something out of Carpenter's "The Thing" except in a video game, which is hard. you may have heard of it. here he is, having a snack:  here he is getting really upset about people who don't post cool monsters:  ok go

This fucker from RE4. Even if you know how to fight it it's still terrifying and incredibly difficult to take down. Edit: "You're right hand comes off?" :smugleon: PantsBandit fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Feb 12, 2015 |

this whole fuckin' thread should be dark souls bosses except the butterfly and the dog that gets progressively sadder as you lower its health here's the rotten from dark souls 2. it's made of dead people.  edit: if you look closely, you can see that it doesn't have legs, just dead people who crawl in the direction it wishes to move. namely, your direction.

Ugh-Zan the Third. At least back when SS:TFE was relatively current content. Going from that loving evil arena to suddenly a massive, wide open plain with nothing at all for miles around. Then the cutscene. Then I turn around and see the boss and how he's literally like 100 feet tall and suddenly there's all this poo poo in front of me and it's shooting me and I backpedaled too much and then he stepped on me and all that was left was a red smear on the ground.

Say what you want about its story, the monster design for Dead Space was fuckin' amazing and outright freaky.

The pursuer in dark souls 2 is pretty good but not because of what he looks like, he's just a floating dude in armor. But I like him because he shows up three times I think in a regular playthrough, and every time he does he wrecks your poo poo. He's just a regular tanky dude with a sword but he moves surprisingly fast and has some moves that will just wreck you in one shot if you're not careful. The first time he shows up he completely outclasses you and basically wipes the floor with you, he's the first "boss" in a sense except he doesn't actually have a boss door, he just happens as you're going through the first area. Then he never shows up again until later in that area where he's a regular (still tough) boss. Then the third time he just teleports into an area you already cleared, and proceeds to kick seven kinds of poo poo out of you once again when you're not expecting it. Not the most inventive boss, but some of the best boss placement in any game I've played recently. Edit: Also his preferred mode of transport is being airdropped in by a giant eagle which is pretty metal.

Silent Hill has some rad monster designs but here's one of the best, the Twin Victims from 4. The game is really mediocre over all but these guys are unnerving especially because the first time you run into one its down a long corridor, so the first thing you'll probably see them do is point at you and start whispering.

The mutants in LISA are pretty weird. Most of them don't even go out of their way to attack you too like most monsters. Some refuse to attack you completely. They just stare at you and make unsettling noises.

 Quite honestly I think this speaks for itself  These dudes were the first significant enemies in Silent Hill 3 and owned a ton. In Silent Hill 2 for the first two thirds of the game practically everything you encounter was an easily thrashed trash mob because of ~themes~, then come the sequel the first enemy you fight and a frequent spawn for the first half the game is these hulking fucks who are practically unengageable in melee and are way too durable to regularly kill with pistols, they really helped sell the 'you are a small girl in a terrifying, deadly world' feel the game had going in a big way No Dignity fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Feb 12, 2015 |

They could also kill you in like two hits. A wonderful way to set the tone of the game, because right away you're up against something you want to avoid at all costs.

Pft, that's nothing compared to the most terrifying enemy ever conceived; A fat water man!  Its a boss in Pikmin 2 that is completely invulnerable, will crush your entire army if you let it get close, and shows up on every floor of its dungeon if you waste too much time. You can't kill it until the very last floor. Despite looking ridiculous its actually really loving stressful.

 If you're not careful, he'll use a ruler, which lets him easily find the length of things.

So you go through Tourian, blast the poo poo out of Mother Brain just like in the original Metroid, and then this happens.

The Mad Hatter from American McGee's Alice was pretty great. A Steampunk Gent posted:
The Cyberdemon is pretty cool, but Doom II had a couple of better monsters. The mancubi I think are a slightly cooler take on the same concept, and the arch-viles were the coolest. It really helps in both cases that they have great sound effects as well as looking awesome.

 Maiden Astraea, from Demon's Souls. She is protected by a knight Garl Vinland, whom if you kill and talk to her, she commits suicide since you killed her knight, and you get her soul OR, you can wade through the lake of her.... well... birth fluids, and deal with her demon babies. If you attack her she casts a spell trying to kill you, and guilt trips you for hurting her Seriously, most hosed up and sick monster I can think of.
