Coolest moment in video game history
« on: October 27, 2002, 08:38:21 AM »
(contains spoilers)



Here\'s my top 4

4.  The Bouncer:  Promo video of the bar scene fight,  if only the game had fighting that cool

3.  Final Fantasy 7:  Weapons release and Saphire\'s attack on Junon

2.  Final Fantasy 7:  The ending when theres that flash of light,  everyone closes their eyes completly but Clowd,  exhausted looking from the long journey,  just half way closes his eye lids.  Too cool.

1.  Metal Gear Solid 2:  Toward the end after octacon\'s sister dies when Snake Octacon and Raiden walk toward the camera in slow motion...I couldn\'t stop laughing

1.FF8 intro
2.FF7:Cloud\'s way through final confrontation with Sephiroth,Sephiroth\'s glance after walking through the fire,descovering Cloud\'s true past
3.Silent hill:the parts with the cat,the painting of the door,the appearance of a button of a fourth floor in the elevator(I read somewhere that number 4 resembles death in japan.So they never have a 4th floor in their hospitals.)
4.Omega Boost:Final Stage(falling to the endless tunnel while fighting with the wrom like creature.The combination with the music still arouses me)
5.Prasite Eve:The cut scenes and the fights with the bosses.
6.Vagrant Story:The same as parasite Eve
7.Soul Blade\'s intro

There are more I cant think of now

Final Fantasy IX:

Seeing Alexander summoned.  Watching that all hateful look from Eiko when Zidane rescued Dagger.

Watching the whole team go to Terra

Watching Kuja flying around on his dragon, then checking his forehead for blood.

Watching Kuja trance and destroy an entire world:D

Final Fantasy X:  

The Spring cutscene.

Sonic Adventure:

The whale smashing up the dock right behind Sonic.

Windy Valley level.  Such a rush.

All fights with Chaos, especially as Super Sonic.

Skies of Arcadia:  

Going into the Dark Rift.

Seeing Rodriguez destroy the gods, or were they considered elders...meh,  it\'s been so long.

Banjo-Kazooie:

When the jinjo\'s formed Super Jinjo and hit Gruntilda.

Kingdom Hearts

Getting to fight Ursula.

Seeing Aeris again:)

The ending:)


That\'s all I can think of for now.

Contra (NES) - Seeing the "thank you for playing" message at the end of the game after beating it without continuing.

Ikaruga (DC) - Beating any level after level 1 without dying.

Final Fantasy VII (PSX) - Aerith\'s death scene and the fight afterwards and how much I wanted to take Siphiroth down.

Street Fighter II (SNES) - When I first got this game, it was a totaly unexpected gift.  Great moment in my opinion.

Street Fighter Alpha 2 (PSX) - When i stomped my friend into the ground so hard that he turned into a scrub and actually started calling me cheap.

Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo (PSX) - When I found this game on the shelf at EB for a mere 30 dollars while on EBay it was going for $100 or more.

Metal Gear Solid (PSX) - After you watch the Hind D take off, you have to make your way up to the second floor vent (the preferred floor anyways).  That moment when you crawl inside is the moment when the demo ended that came with the Official Playstation Magazine, but realizing that I was now wading into untraveled territory was a great experience.

Sega Dreamcast (System Launch) - Picking this system up right after school at about 12:45PM realizing that this was the first system I had ever fully bought with my own money, games, accessories and all.

Sega Dreamcast (Import) - Trading in the US console for a m0dified import system and popping in Street Fighter 3 W-Impact and Virtual On Oratario Tangram for the first time.

Einhander (PSX) - Getting the Juno cannon for the first time and mastering the Python as well.  Playing the last level rocked also with all the changing perspectives.  Good stuff.

Resident Evil (PSX) - The first encounter with the Hunters after you re-enter the mansion.

Mega Man X (SNES) - Getting the fireball from Dr. Light and using it to obliterate almost every boss.

Capcom Vs SNK 2 (PSX) - Completing the entire combo super that Rock Howard does during an actual match and winning the round.

Halo: Combat Evolved (Xbox) - Both The Maw and The Silent Cartographer levels both single player and co-op.  Great experiences there.  Also making it on legendary with almost 2 minutes to spare to the escape shuttle.

Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader (GCN) - The entire Return of the Jedi recreation around the Forrest Moon of Endor, over the second deathstar, and inside the second deathstar.

You know what, there are so many more so I\'m just going to stop there.  In the words of Cable in Marvel Vs Capcom 2... "That\'s enough for now..."
Don\'t you ever touch my cape.

Phantasy Star 4: When Chaz finally accepts his role as leader of the party against the Profound Darkness and takes hold of the Elysdion.. feeling the spirits of all those who died to protect Algol flow through him, including Alyz who died earlier in the game.

Ghouls & Ghosts: Struggling vainly to reach the end and face Loki only to find out you have to go all the way back to very beginning again and fight through the entire game AGAIN.. this time with the difficulty bumped up a notch.

Resident Evil: The dogs busting through the window the first time you enter the crooked hallway.

Leisure Suit Larry: Finally getting ahold of Burgandy\'s discarded clothes and giving them to Shabalee so that she\'ll go on a date with you. Meeting her on the beach.. whispering sweet nothings into her ear.. lighly kissing her dark skin.. and then slyly pulling out your condom.. which she promply grabs and puts on. o_O WTF!!?!?

Quest for Glory 2: Finally finding out that the Ali Fakir Xray glasses have a purpose. MMMmm pixelated boobies. :D

Final Fantasy 8: Having the honor of being the only person on earth who actually enjoys this game moreso than Final Fantasy 7.
Please Bleed.. so I know that you are real.
Please Bleed.. so I know that you can feel the damage that you\'ve done.
