What moments from various games series will you always remember? Which moments in particular did you like/hate?
Careful reading through if you haven't played through yet...
I'll start with Metal Gear...
Metal Gear Solid:
the awesome camera angle shown with the game title (in the elevator)
going mono a mono against a TANK
Watching all the crazy moves cyborg ninja had
Freaking out when psycho mantis told me I was obsessed with saving my game
sniper wolf battles!!!
getting tortured....and not saying a word
ascending the communications tower, and mowing down anyone in my way as I go up
The Hind battle
going deeper and deeper (and deeper) into the base to where rex is held
Learning some truth behind Naomi
All of the epic Liquid fights at the end (rex, hand to hand, the escape tunnel)
Metal Gear Solid 2:
Best intro movie for a video game ever made (the one before the start screen) if you ask me
Having fun sneaking around the tanker and messing with the soldiers
The shootout in the dark tanker hallways
Sneaking around Big Shell to find all the bombs...then ironically using claymores to get Fatman
Learning more about Otacon and his sister
Sniping vamp while protecting Emma
Listening in on conversations
Getting the guard to scan his eye in that one door
Swimming through the underwater mazes...and hating every second of it
Setting my all time high "wtf?!?!" record in arsenal gear
Fighting Solidus with that awesome sword at the end
Metal Gear Solid 3:
Pissing off crocodiles/alligators
Learning how to use the camo index
Slowly realizing throughout the game how badass The Boss is, and with her
insane CQC skills how she could probably make Kratos scream like a little girl
The End boss battle...one of the most open ended, diverse boss battle ever....
Getting the chills from hearing the snake eater theme as you ascend that really, really long ladder
Having fun turning into Rambo on top of the mountain
Seeing naked snake lose his eye (I'm reminded of that guy from 300, you know, the guy that says, "eh, it's just an EYE....")
The intense motorcycle chase scene!!
The Boss final fight....speaks for itself
Finally realizing what The Boss did for her country, and seeing naked snake turn into Big Boss....deep stuff
Metal Gear Solid 4:
Mk. II!
New weapon customization/purchase system
Getting caught between two armies at war
Having the game take place in multiple, diverse locations - this really surprised me....I didn't want to read up on anything about metal gear before playing it, and I'm glad I did that because of how much this threw me off guard...I really thought the whole thing was gonna take place in the middle east
Hearing all of the BnB stories....and realizing how each story is more gruesome than the last
Trying to keep my jaw held up while I watched the movie fight sequences
Shooting down all the metal gears while escaping with drebin
The whole europe section....from following the resistance member, to the motorcycle chase scene with matrix style moments, to the awesome boss fight against the rage lady, that whole section was really fun and unique
Going back to Shadow Moses Island...this part is definitely one of my favorite parts...between the music (particularly "The Best is Yet to Come"), to the way the buildings are decaying, to the environment, and the flashbacks....brings back so many memories from metal gear solid 1....its reasons like this why to fully appreciate the series, you have to play through all 1, 2, 3 and then 4....just knowing the story, and then playing only 4 is definitely not enough
Not having to change blu-ray discs!
Piloting metal gear rex, and wrecking all the geckos in my way, like they were nothing - and then fighting RAY!!!!
The epic cutscene sequence before being launched onto ocelot's ship....very, very well done....I only wish they used the main theme from metal gear solid 2 somewhere in there, I was waiting for it....
Not letting snake give up in the microwave hallways (that was intense!)
The end fight between liquid and snake....possibly the only fight scene that could top the boss vs. naked snake end fight....
Finally having every single loose end i could think of tied up!
I couldn't narrow it down....what else do you remember in particular??
