1. GRAW - [spoiler:8c5e550f7f]Second level walking up to the embassy and BOOM! Shit is destroyed and I almost crapped my pants.[/spoiler:8c5e550f7f]
In retrospect I'm pretty pissed I watched a gameplay vid on online that showed that before I got the game. I jumped when I saw it but I wish it hit me for the first time when playing. Though it is still a fun part to show other people.
Also pretty much all of Halo 1, the first I time I played it. Levels like Assault on the Control Room felt so massive, and the pure hecticness, "how the hell are going to survive this"ness of The Maw on the first time through were so great. Not to mention I played the game entirely on co-op the first time so that made it even more awesome.
Realising that you have every piece of architecture, down to every bump in the terrain, chip in the wall, and all enemy placement memorized, in every level, of both games. Then thinking about how much more successful you'd be in life if you paid that much attention to school work.
The first time I really got to play some Battlefield 2 online. This was one of the first times I'd played much of any game online (though I'd done a fair bit of LAN deathmatches in UT and Quake and such).
I don't recall what level it was, or even what gameplay mode, but I was one of the generic assault guys. I was wandering about on a hill, and I stumbled across a sniper from the other side. He was lying in the grass, staring at someone, probably searching for a quarry, and he faced away from me. He didn't see me. I snuck up right behind him, and I pointed my gun at him, and I just sat there giggling for way longer than was prudent, thinking, "OMG, I'm so going to blow this fucker's head off." And then I did.
It was the most satisfying kill I'd ever had.

that's how i feel about Eve. I can sink hours into grinding away at missions and trying to earn cash to progress further. All this time, i could be doing the same thing in life and actually achieving something. It's not a 'memorable moment', just a sobering thought.

Midnight, 11/19/06. It had been a long time coming. Playing Wii Sports for the first time was surreal.
One of the things that blew me away about MGS3 was when one of my friends told me how he beat the end, I was further shocked when another friend said he killed him a different, third way:
[spoiler:132ea3c2a2] I killed the end by fighting him where your supposed to. In the big forest arena. One of my friends killed him by sniping him right after the cutscene where you see him in a wheelchair on the docks. My other friend got to him, then had to take a break from the game for finals. When he came back the End had died of old age.[/spoiler:132ea3c2a2]
:shock:
[spoiler:132ea3c2a2]It's also viable to take him out using a shotgun and heat vision goggles. Chasing that old fucker around the forest is pretty intense.[/spoiler:132ea3c2a2]

Genius.[/spoiler:83ff9aaf42]
i saw this one listed on GameFAQs, and thought it was the author just being a jerk. I'm actually amused and impressed to see it's real, and now want to witness it for myself.
It's been a while, but when you're captured and put in the cell, im pretty sure Major asks you to rest, at that point you get the chance to save. Just save the game and then quit. Turn off the console. Then come back to it. Apon loading the game you will be thrown into the nightmare. Its great.
Sigint also gives you some advice about nightmares afterwards, and tells about a nightmare he had, about a giant "Shit monster". it's hilarious.
What is the box speech? I never actually hear it while playing through the game because I always forgot to radio while in the box.
The whole thing:
[spoiler:83ff9aaf42]Sigint: "Uh, Snake...what are you doing?"
Snake: "I'm in a box."
Sigint: "A cardboard box? Why are you...?"
Snake: "I dunno. I was just looking at it, and suddenly I got this irresistable urge to get inside. No, not an urge - more than that. It was my destiny to be here; in the box."
Sigint: "Destiny...?"
Snake: "Yeah. And then when I put it on, I suddenly got this feeling of inner peace. I can't put it into words. I feel...safe. Like this is where I was meant to be. Like I'd found the key to true happiness. ... Does that make any sense?"
Sigint: "Not even a little."
Snake: "You should come inside the box... Then you'll know what I mean."
Sigint: "Man, I don't wanna know what you mean! Between you and Para-Medic, is everyone but me that is hooked up with the Major strange!?"
Snake: "..."
Sigint: "Yeah, well, anyway, I suppose even that dumbass box might make a decent disguise if you wear it inside a building."[/spoiler:83ff9aaf42]
Made me laugh, too. Hate Kojima's writing, love the little details.

Medal of Honor - Online multiplayer. Totally pissed over the shite that was Call of Duty. I used to like to find realism mod servers, so that one or perhaps two shots were all that were needed to take someone down, none of this "hose someone down for 20 minutes with a machine gun" bollocks. My weapon of choice was the German bolt-action rifle. Not the scoped version, just the vanilla one shot rifle with the slow reload. Obviously I'd get my arse handed to me most of the time, but any kills I did get were so sweet because you had to fucking earn them. This one time, in the ruined village (the one with the burnt out tank in the road), I found some cover in the upper floor of a ruined inn and I had a kill streak of about 12 with that bolt action rifle. I swear, I was practically giddy by the end of it, because something like that just shouldn't be possible in that setup.
Perfect Dark Zero - Despite its flaws, this game did some absolutely marvellous things at times and was worthy of the Perfect Dark name. A friend came over for the weekend, and we played it for 10 hours solid, only moving for toilet breaks. I thought I had seen the game, but co-op mode is the TRUE way to play. Not online co-op, because there you get nothing but retarded Americans** talking shite while you try and shoot things, but same room co-op is godly. The bridge. The motherfucking bridge. Jesus cunting Christ that is just a work of fucking art. The first half of the level before the bridge is timewasting piffle, but the bridge itself ... Oh. My. Fucking. God. We played that level for three hours exploring different ways to get across that bridge. We started off with me grabbing a sniper rifle and covering him while he made a run for a machine gun emplacement, and we would leapfrog forward from cover to cover working our way across the bridge through the hundreds of bastards coming across at us. Then we discovered there were pipes and crawlspaces under the bridge, so we explored getting across that way. Then we discovered we could climb up the superstructure of the bridge and find a zipline all the way to the to the other end of the bridge. The sheer number of tactical options for getting across were seemingly endless, and we tried them all. I swear, that three hours was possibly the greatest three hours of my gaming life. Shame it was followed up by the worst final level of a game ever, but still ... the fucking BRIDGE man!
My personal favourite memory is of Project Gotham Racing 3. Now I loved the graphics, loved the game, but boy did I suck at it. I can't do racing games where if you fuck up even once you have automatically lost. I go round corners in a "bounce off the walls" kind of style, a bad habit from the many, many years where you could get away with that kind of thing. I tried the online campaign where you get to play against real people, only to find that it was basically the offline version, except for the fact that it was even harder to win at. So naturally I got a bit pissed off, and decided to just fanny about one last time before trading it in for something that I wouldn't suck big donkey cock at. I decided to set up a room, thinking that perhaps by being the host that I might get a slight advantage somehow. But no, I still came last every race. In fit of petulance, I changed the settings to "fixed cockpit view" and chose the longest race in the game, the dreaded Nurburgring. 10 people started that race, but only 3 of us finished it, every few seconds you would hear a muttered "what the fuck?" and another car would drop out. I was impressed at the dedication of the two that stayed to the end though, and I decided to pursue the theme. I kept cockpit view on, but chose sensible length races through the city centres. Something wonderful had been discovered, cockpit view turned out to be some kind of mystical anti-wanker device. All the arseholes that take things way too seriously all dropped out of the server very quickly, but all the fun-loving muppets like me stayed around to piss about and have a chat. Over the course of the next two hours we increased our numbers until we had ended up with a version of the wacky races, we were singing, swapping filthy jokes, ramming people that were trying just too hard to not join in ... it was gold my friends, online gold. For all my anti-Microsoft tendencies, I have to salute them for creating one hell of a fantastic online gaming hub with Live. For two hours, a bunch of misfit drivers turned PGR3 into the fastest moving dick joke chatroom the world has ever seen.
** (Apologies btw to the intelligent, cultured Americans here. But seriously, your fellow countrymen need to find an insult for use in online games that doesn't involve the words "douche" or "bag". I don't know if I played against 500 different morons, or the same moron 500 times, but Christ it was dull. I'm all for being slagged off if I'm playing like a mong, but a bit of variety for crying out loud.)

Also pretty much all of Halo 1, the first I time I played it. Levels like Assault on the Control Room felt so massive, and the pure hecticness, "how the hell are going to survive this"ness of The Maw on the first time through were so great. Not to mention I played the game entirely on co-op the first time so that made it even more awesome.
Honestly, there's more moments in Deus Ex that stuck with me than I can remember, but the one that threw me for the biggest loop, was
[spoiler:3873c8f4d3]When Jock's helicopter exploded[/spoiler:3873c8f4d3]
At that point, the story's double, triple, and even quadruple crosses really started to shine through.
Realising that you have every piece of architecture, down to every bump in the terrain, chip in the wall, and all enemy placement memorized, in every level, of both games. Then thinking about how much more successful you'd be in life if you paid that much attention to school work.
I don't recall what level it was, or even what gameplay mode, but I was one of the generic assault guys. I was wandering about on a hill, and I stumbled across a sniper from the other side. He was lying in the grass, staring at someone, probably searching for a quarry, and he faced away from me. He didn't see me. I snuck up right behind him, and I pointed my gun at him, and I just sat there giggling for way longer than was prudent, thinking, "OMG, I'm so going to blow this fucker's head off." And then I did.
It was the most satisfying kill I'd ever had.

Outcast, at the very start, when the camera is panning around the exile village, credits are showing and the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra is playing. Cinematic is too small a word to describe it.
Condemned: Criminal Origins - [spoiler:4a0f7690e8] There were some certain parts which made me jump, like one time I looked down a flight of stairs, and some crazy ass hobo fucking jumps out of nowhere up to kick my ass. It was like look down stairs, BOOM HOBO.[/spoiler:4a0f7690e8]

Battlefield: Vietnam - My friends and I were the first (as far as I know) people to figure out nade jumping in the game. I just remember taking a screen shot of us on top of the huge ass pagoda and getting it posted on a bunch of BFV sites
Yeah, Unreal held up extremely well over time. I still love to go back and play that.
The end part of MGS 2, when you enter arsenal Gear. How reality is all fucked up and Raiden thinks that the colonel is crazy.
But my number one most memorable moment was when at the end of MGS 2, Ocelot reveals himself as a triple-crossing asshole. I nearly shit myself.
I literally stared at the screen for a few moments before pursuing.
"let's beat Mario kart Double Dash."
"ok"
first we had some pops. halfway through we dodged a fucking blue shell. it was fucking crazy. seriously.
sotc - oh shit - WHY ARE YOU SO FUCKING HUGE D :
Diablo - oh shit, diablo's coming, oh shit, he's got friends! RUN AWAY!
That was so not cool. I read it without even thinking.
I'm sorry, but I'm going to need an explanation.
I WILL NOT BE DOING 3DS FOR NWC THREAD. SOMEONE ELSE WILL HAVE TO TAKE OVER.

[spoiler:2ada54e252]It is from an extra mission you can do in the game. Normally you are used to missions that start off slowly and you have time to look around and figure out what to do. But this mission you start and the very second you do you are being shouted at "DIVE DIVE DIVE". I shit myself when it happened. I saw a huge ship coming straight at me and had to restart due to being rammed to death.[/spoiler:2ada54e252]

I was in my sniper view cause I could hear him breathing, it got louder and louder and I was freaking out. I took my sniper scope off and it turns out the fucker had been standing behind me the whole time with his gun trained on my head. He shot me and dragged me off to a prison cell. Sneaky Jerk.

Perfect Dark Zero - Despite its flaws, this game did some absolutely marvellous things at times and was worthy of the Perfect Dark name. A friend came over for the weekend, and we played it for 10 hours solid, only moving for toilet breaks. I thought I had seen the game, but co-op mode is the TRUE way to play. Not online co-op, because there you get nothing but retarded Americans** talking shite while you try and shoot things, but same room co-op is godly. The bridge. The motherfucking bridge. Jesus cunting Christ that is just a work of fucking art. The first half of the level before the bridge is timewasting piffle, but the bridge itself ... Oh. My. Fucking. God. We played that level for three hours exploring different ways to get across that bridge. We started off with me grabbing a sniper rifle and covering him while he made a run for a machine gun emplacement, and we would leapfrog forward from cover to cover working our way across the bridge through the hundreds of bastards coming across at us. Then we discovered there were pipes and crawlspaces under the bridge, so we explored getting across that way. Then we discovered we could climb up the superstructure of the bridge and find a zipline all the way to the to the other end of the bridge. The sheer number of tactical options for getting across were seemingly endless, and we tried them all. I swear, that three hours was possibly the greatest three hours of my gaming life. Shame it was followed up by the worst final level of a game ever, but still ... the fucking BRIDGE man!
My personal favourite memory is of Project Gotham Racing 3. Now I loved the graphics, loved the game, but boy did I suck at it. I can't do racing games where if you fuck up even once you have automatically lost. I go round corners in a "bounce off the walls" kind of style, a bad habit from the many, many years where you could get away with that kind of thing. I tried the online campaign where you get to play against real people, only to find that it was basically the offline version, except for the fact that it was even harder to win at. So naturally I got a bit pissed off, and decided to just fanny about one last time before trading it in for something that I wouldn't suck big donkey cock at. I decided to set up a room, thinking that perhaps by being the host that I might get a slight advantage somehow. But no, I still came last every race. In fit of petulance, I changed the settings to "fixed cockpit view" and chose the longest race in the game, the dreaded Nurburgring. 10 people started that race, but only 3 of us finished it, every few seconds you would hear a muttered "what the fuck?" and another car would drop out. I was impressed at the dedication of the two that stayed to the end though, and I decided to pursue the theme. I kept cockpit view on, but chose sensible length races through the city centres. Something wonderful had been discovered, cockpit view turned out to be some kind of mystical anti-wanker device. All the arseholes that take things way too seriously all dropped out of the server very quickly, but all the fun-loving muppets like me stayed around to piss about and have a chat. Over the course of the next two hours we increased our numbers until we had ended up with a version of the wacky races, we were singing, swapping filthy jokes, ramming people that were trying just too hard to not join in ... it was gold my friends, online gold. For all my anti-Microsoft tendencies, I have to salute them for creating one hell of a fantastic online gaming hub with Live. For two hours, a bunch of misfit drivers turned PGR3 into the fastest moving dick joke chatroom the world has ever seen.
** (Apologies btw to the intelligent, cultured Americans here. But seriously, your fellow countrymen need to find an insult for use in online games that doesn't involve the words "douche" or "bag". I don't know if I played against 500 different morons, or the same moron 500 times, but Christ it was dull. I'm all for being slagged off if I'm playing like a mong, but a bit of variety for crying out loud.)
