Quote:The end of Super Metroid, when you are almost defeated by the mother brain, and that giant metroid (the one you saved at the end of Metoid II), comes flying in and sacrifices itself to save you :). When it first swoops in you want to start cheering, when it dies you want to cry, and when it gives you it's power you want revenge. It's pretty awesome, even to this day.


Ah, HELLZ YEA!!! RATINGS +!

...Well its the thought that counted.

Probably when I reached Grandmaster meditation and eval intelligence in Ultima Online, before all the exploits or changes that made it easy. And there are other UO moments too that was pure happiness.

Being among the 10 first to get to level 60 on the european servers in World of warcraft was also quite a kick.

The single strongest memory other then mmorpgs, was when Legend of Zelda came out on the Nintendo 8bit. How I waited for that game. And one day it arrived in my mail and it was golden.
Domine non secundum peccata nostra facias nobis
The game Chrono Trigger. The whole game.

ELEVEN YEAR OLD SPOILER******

The dark-side-of-the-force ending in Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2.

The other moment is where the radio goes off for the first time, altering you to the incoming danger. Both moment still shock me today even though I know there coming.


Oh, yeah. Now I won't be able to sleep tonight.

Note to self: change Ravuya's alarm to play static at 3 AM.

Completing each Doom game on Nightmare. Man, that was an awesome feeling! Completely insane all the way through. Some of the best fun I've had.

There's also a moment in Serious Sam: The Second Encounter, on the last level just before the boss. You end up coming out of a huge corridor of death, and across a large field is a cathedral. In the middle of the field is a tiny ruin with 4 exits (left, right, ahead, behind). When you get to the ruin, a huge storm breaks out and you get attacked by literally hordes of enemies from all sides for probably 5 minutes. Getting past that on Serious difficulty was also incredibly rewarding. In fact, that entire last level was fantastic. One of the best last levels I've ever played, from the layout, to the enemies to the music.

Might be playing it later on with a mate, so if I do, I'll get some screenies of it. :) Oh and I agree with whoever mentioned Diablo. Killing the Diablo Clone in Diablo 2 was also great, after waiting so long for it to spawn and getting a nice unique charm for it. :)
