Let me tell you that you will spend the first 2 hours just running around to enjoy the graphics. Shame that I only played FarCry 3 on PC. I got 4 for my PS4, and I am seriously thinking on buying it for PC.

The first time you get to Firelink Shrine in Dark Souls was my best moment in videogames.
The music, the background with the huge tree and castle walls... i spend 20 minutes there just watching.
It's my favorite game of all time.

Five that pop into my head:

Metal Gear Solid 3: the whole have was amazing but from the time you fight the Shagohod to the final credits--THAT feeling is the reason why I'm a gamer.

Chrono Trigger: Finding Chrono-- first this I ever saw a main character did in a game. The party goes on without him. Changing past and finally getting him back was incredible. With the team together, it was time to fuck Lavos right in the booty hole.

Gears of War 2: finding Dom's wife. Maybe it was the extra "umph" of seventh gen realism plus some genuine emotion in the acting but that one really hit me. Plus, at the time my gf was named Maria.

Final Fantasy VIII: Bought the grand just in time to go to bed. I only had time to watch the intro. I couldn't even sleep, I was so excited!

Super Metroid: Samus was being destroyed by mother brain. I couldn't think fast enough to figure a way out of the situation. Suddenly, the baby Metroid I saved in Metroid 2 comes in and sacrifices itself to save me. I jumped out of my seat because it was just so awesome!

Ganon fight on Ocarina of TIme....

This is such an awesome thread!

Few more: RE2 during the "new game plus" where things were the same.... but different. When Mr. X made his debut, the whole game went to the next level.

Batman Arkham Asylum: when I realized I was getting a dose of the great gas. Great effect!

Also Eternal Darkness: just like Arkham but on a higher level. That game relay messed with your head sometimes and when it fooled my, I got goosebumps!

Onimusha 2 ( my auto correct knew this game? wtf!!): anyway, facing and defeating Gogandantess (sic?) for the last time. Somehow, I developed a respect for my rival. Finally beating him just gave me such a sense of pride. Much better that the Squall/Seifer stuff from FFVIII.

Haven't seen this one mentioned yet. Gave me chills. I recommend everyone to try it if they can:

1. Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn: When you find out who the Black Knight is and later when you finally kill him
2. The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker: First time turning on the game and hearing the intro music
3. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door: All of Chapter 4
4. Super Smash Bros Melee intro
5. Chrono Trigger: Opening Cinematic
