I thought it would be interesting to see people's favorite moments in videogames as sometimes its the little moments in videogames that remind us why we love gaming so much.

My favorite moment in any video game of all time is the very end of Ocarina of time when

The Metal Gear Solid games. any of them, they all have really deep meanings that surprisingly most people dont pick up on.

Spec Ops The Line, it took a lot of balls to okay that game for release, the gameplay itself is bad, but it has some of the best character development I've seen in a game

Finding out that my favorite arcade game (Cruis'n USA) ever was soon going to be playable in my bedroom. :lol:

I currently own humble, but nice collections of NTSC-U; NES, SNES, N64, GameCube, Wii

Currently taking a break from a 2012 collecting binge.

NES--the gates opening for Simon at the beginning of Castlevania; and the scene in the first Ninja Gaiden at the end of Stage 5(?) when Ryu sees the castle in the distance.

SNES--racing out of Zebes in Super Metroid before it blows

N64--the start of any race in SWE1R (Abyss excepted!)

When I brought my brand new SNES home along with my copy of Earthworm Jim and seeing what "Next Gen" really meant. :o

Gosh, what a great question. A few that come to mind for me:

Running around the corner in Tomb Raider and seeing the T-Rex.
That pivotal and emotional death scene from Final Fantasy VII.
The first time you step foot on Hyrule Field in Ocarina of Time.
The ending of The Walking Dead, along with several tense split-moment decision sequences.
Every single colossus in Shadow of the Colossus.
Luna singing the song on the boat in Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete.
Those evil ghost babies in Silent Hill.
Riding around the countryside in GTA: San Andreas.
Kicking people in Radiata Stories.
Seeing people keeping to a real-time schedule in Shenmue.
Finding Shao Kahn, Liu Kang and so many other MK characters in the Konquest mode of Mortal Kombat: Deception.

Beating Stop and Go station in Donkey Kong Country. I remember playing the first level over and over to get extra lives and then losing the all on Stop and Go Station. Ill never forget when I finally got past that level.

Endure and survive...
Great topic,

Some early thoughts of mine:

Metal Gear Solid 3: the flower fields at the end.

Metal Gear Solid, final sequence.

Hitman: Blood Money, ending

SotC: full of great moments

The end of OoT :)

Killing any great monster on the Monster Hunter games.

It's hard to tell all of them, but here are the ones (old ones)that come to my mind right now.

Game Boy: PKMN Yellow, Silver (Seeing your strategy taking effect, Gym leaders battles + ending).

Genesis: - The Lion King (back then, it was like playing the movie)
- Alladin (The soundtrack and sprite animations. A lot better than the Snes version, one of the rarest moments I saw my Genesis beating my cousin's Snes) :blasphemy bat:

PSOne: - Metal Gear Solid (Everything) :omg: ...
- Resident Evil 1, 2, 3. The characters + endings(Resident 3 ending is awesome)
- FFIX (FMVs + the soundtrack and battle animations, ending)

:n64: - Super Mario 64 (The movements, soundtrack, ending, everything)
- Star Fox 64 (soundtrack, the chat between levels, ending)
- Zelda OoT (When beating every single boss, soundtrack, and ending)
- Conker's Bad Fur Day (Sloprano song LoL, Private Ryan and Matrix levels)
- Perfect Dark (Soundtrack that takes you into action)

Too many to count! Here's just a few:

Majora's Mask
1) The entire opening sequence. Link searching for Navi, chasing Deku Kid, falling into Termina and being transformed into the Deku Shrub. That entire sequence is so chilling, and perfectly sets the tone for the game's dark, depressing mood. Who'd have thought Nintendo would come out with something so dark on the N64?

2) The scene after you playing the Healing Song for the mummified father in Ikana Valley, and he reunites with his daughter. A truly touching moment.

Final Fantasy X
The CGI scene where Sin ravages through Kilika. This scene absolutely blew my mind when I first saw it. I wish Square would stop being so secretive and release some information about Final Fantasy X HD.



Fallout 3
Stepping out of the vault for the first time. The screen goes blindingly-white for a few seconds as your character's eyes adjust to the sun, and then you see it. A completely decimated, post-apocalyptic world that stretches as far as the eye can see. Absolutely breathtaking.
