Elite - Opening the Universe map for the first time. (bear in mind that we were playing pacman and space invaders at the time)
Mario Kart Snes - Mode 7 firing a shell into your mate and watching them spin out in split screen. Even better if its a green one and you aim it perfectly.
Streets of Rage 2 - The first boss fight when the barman runs out from behind the bar to have a scrap in the back yard.
Shining Force 2 - When your home area falls into the ground and you all become refugees. Actually the first time I have been sad for the game characters. Poor little turtle hiding in the shed
Sensible World of Soccer - The end of season, when every league in the World shows the end of season results - including the likes of New Zealand, Chile etc. So much data.
Ridge Racer - Skidding around the hairpin turn, all in 3d - at home! (the moment we realised arcades days were numbered)
Super Mario 64 - Climbing up a tree and pole vaulting off it. So good.
Final Fantasy 7 - Going into the overworld for the first time. Like. Wtf that first 8 hours was just the beginning?
Half Life - The introduction / first half an hour. All in first person and set a sense of place like never before.
Final Fantasy 10 - The international Sphere grid, best levelling up system ever. Zooming out to see the huge, seemingly endless amount of customisation.
Metal Gear Solid 3 - The End boss fight (not the last one but The End old guy who likes sniping). Epic boss fight, possibly the greatest of all time?
Halo 2 - Jumping on to the walking control station. It was the first time in a game I can recall where the area you stood on and fought over was a moving mechanical object.
Wii Sport - Everyone including your none game playing mum fighting over the controller to play bowling.
Mass Effect 2 - The ending when you see the reapers start to attack. Possibly the best cliff hanger in gaming!
Final Fantasy 13 - Seeing the Titan leer over the play area swaying to and fro. (similar the the serpent in PS4 god of war) absolutely gigantic.
The Walking Dead - No Lee Noooooooo!
The Last of Us - The introduction, easily my favourite in gaming it sucks you into Joel's shoes.
Rocket League - Hitting your first aerial. It's like a special move in a fighting game but way harder to pull off. Once you finally nail one it's like sex.
Horizon Zero Dawn - Taking down red maw using tripwires and living on the edge. Truly a remarkable moment in gaming.
Astrobot - Dipping your head into water in world 5. This is the future of gaming available on PS4.

@themcnoisy I'll second your mention of the End (MGS3) being one of the greatest boss fights of all time, if not the single greatest. Such a tense sequence!

@RogerRoger cowering, waiting for ten minutes, then you slightly move to see if the end has moved his position...
Only to be greeted by the camera snapping to third person and the end is stood above you. Game over.

Whenever a game breaks the fourth wall, Metal Gear Solid, Deadpool, Oxenfree I can think of the top my head. Always gives me goose bumps when it happens.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@QualityGeezer I was dying during the whole drinking scene! Also, when I first played Witcher 3 and Ciri stepped into the tower to defeat the White Frost, and after Geralt told Emhyr she died, I almost lost my poo, I thought I got the bad ending and was so upset since I am very much into Witcher series generally. Nedless to say, when Geralt got Ciri the sword and went to meet her at the inn, my heart jumped with adrenaline out of joy
@RogerRoger
Actually, when i did for the first time, i was panic to memorize all the arrows while keep listening the music. I have ever Failed for playing DDR blinfolded but after several attempts i have managed to play certain DDR songs without seeing any arrows.
So far, only Sexy Planet, AM-3P & AFRONOVA are my Trio Blindfold DDR songs.
Sometimes i have ever Failed too for not focus on memorizing the arrows. I got distracted by surrounding sounds or something else in my mind. 😅
On DDR A20 arcade, i have ever succesfully played AM-3P on Expert Lv 11 with Blindfold and got AAA score. And NO mistakes At All ! 😎
Lv 11 on DDR (new rating) was pretty easy for me.
Check my DDR A20 scores on my Instagram account.
@Anti-Matter Blindfolded tasks are great party pieces, but I always get a bit nervous about what's going on around me and, as you say, the potential for distraction is immense. To get a perfect AAA score whilst blindfolded has gotta be your proudest gaming moment, for sure!
