I saw this post on another bulliten board. I got much rave from the members. I'm just curious what kind it will get here.

My gaming moment would have to be in
Shenmu I when Ryo's father gets his ass kicked. It was nice.

I've got others but that sticks out right now.

In Adventure Island 2, when you first ride the skateboard. WOOT!

In all honesty, why in the HELL has there not been a next-gen upgrade to adventure island? The Adventure Island games always had solid gameplay, tropical settings/jungle songs are dope, and skateboarding has such mass appeal, that I'm awestruck at the lack of a new AI!!!

C'MON SUCKA!

When I faced the queen in the finale of Ico. I was able to defeat her on my first try, which was a great experience and made the great ending even more satisfying for me.

Another one was when I was showing off Devil May Cry to my brother, and I looked like a flawless demo sequence mixing up moves and racking up stylish combos. It's really the best I've ever played in that game.

Hmm... one more. Personally, the ending in FFVI really struck me as well done. After playing the game for so long and becoming really attached to a lot of the characters it was great to see the "intros" (like the flipping coin, the shuriken hitting the apple, etc.) and get some closure.

However, I don't think this is the only good way to do an ending.

This one is still in my mind, and is the biggest shock I've had in my videogame experience. I'm talking about Final Fantasy Tactics.

Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
When I finished the game, I couldn't believe it. I mean, I THOUGHT the game wasn't going to finish soon, even when I saw Altima in his/her final form... Then, when I saw the ending, I STILL refused to believe that the game had ended, then... the final scene with Delta and Ovelia appears... I raised my hopes again (Yes, it's not finished yet!!), only to get SHOCKED again: Delita kills Ovelia, even when he loved her.

End of Spoiler

I was so shocked, I couldn't do ANYTHING in the rest of the day, and I had nightmares about it that night. Talk about an involving game.

maybe FF6, when you go for the big final boss battle with the Emperor (forgot his name) and his side kick Kefka, and not only what happens.... happens, but finally you discover you are only half of the game.

The ending of Parallel III in Dark Savior (not to be confused with Vampire Savior/Darkstalkers 3!) and just about all of Parallel IV! Plot twists worthy of Xenogears...

I'm not even gonna use the spoiler thingy to hide what happens, it's too good to risk it, just play the game and see for yourself (er...that is, IF you can find it!)

Eternal Darkness. Well, just about anything with the sanity meter, but the main thing that I said wow about, from shock and actually being freaked out, well, it was

in the bathroom with Alex, when you walk to the tub and see yourself lying in a tub full of your own blood and this blood curdling scream is let out and the camera angle moves just right to freak you out. I was playing it around midnight with no lights on. That was when I quit playing that night...

End of Spoiler

That made me say wow. Other terrific games have made me say wow, but that is just one recent one that comes to mind. I still won't watch that part of the game again...I don't know why it bugs me so much, but...

Beholding the intro sequence of KOF DM DC and Sonic Adventure for the first time.

Oh, and listening to the fruity vocals of Sonic R. I hated them at first but they grew on me so that now I can't play the game unless they are on.

There are tons of gaming moments.

One particular one was where I heard news of MvC2,and found out Cammy was in it.

Another was when I first heard CvS was announced! I was like "WTF??!!?!?" I freaked out! I was'nt expecting a game like that.

Also,another,when Cannon Spike was announced.

And yet another was when I heard Eagle and Maki were gonna be in CvS2.

but i'll go with FFTactics

Spoiler (Highlight to view) -
after the floodgate was opened, Delita and Goltana were discussing what to do next. Delita suddenly stands up to Goltana, telling him his strategies/ideas were bad. before Goltana could do anything drastic, Delita rushes him ...... then slowly backs away, pulling his sword out of Goltana's gut. the next line "Nobody wants you to be King" stuck with me for some reason
while i'm on the topic of Delita and FFT, another quote that gave me such a feeling was "Don't blame me. Blame yourself or God."

Hmm... I have several moments.

Those that I have in top of my head:

- The intro of Shenmue (seeing for the first time how Ran Te/Lan Di fights, so beautiful!)
- The first time I executed Akira's SPOD in VF2
- The first time I saw Iori's SDM in Kof 96 (the way he lloks at you before hammering the guy, great!!)
- When I fought the Dragon in Dungeon Master
