So what is the most epic moment in a video game in your opinion? Here are mine:

-The nuke detonation in Modern Warfare. The big explosion alone was pretty epic but when everything went black and I regained consciousness, I thought "WTF?! Who the hell survives a nuke explosion that close?". I kept walking around enjoying the destroyed scenery but then my character...died. That was unexpected.

-The nuke detonation in Modern Warfare 2. Looks like CoD is filled with pretty epic moments and shocking ones too. I thought I was done for when I was defending my post back on earth. Then everything went white and I find myself in space. I was like "..." but then I saw the missile nearing the space station. Everything went to hell and back on earth it was raining helicopters. That was pretty cool. I guess I'm fond of nuke explosion. So again, what is your most epic moments in video games?

The final battle with Jon Irenicus in Baldur's Gate 2 : Shadows of Amn :)

Mostly just because that whole freaking game was one giant apogee of awesome epicness.....the last battle was a fitting conclusion.

Speaking of final boss fights, anybody else was totally surprised by Fable 2's ending? I mean I expected Lucien to absorb all Heroes and turn into a super Sayan or something equally stupid but Reaver shot him before he finished his speech. Just like that.

It has to be Bioshock for me - "A man chooses, a slave obeys." Still gives me goosebumps.

The halo warthog run by leaps and bounds. Most epic moment out of every single video game ever. Full stop.

Off the top of my head all I can think of is the rooftop part from Halo ODST, especially the part where the ODST's take out that final brute. Now that I think of it I loved the last level of Halo: CE.

I'll just keep it to 2010:

Mass Effect 2: The unveiling of the new Normandy.

Splinter Cell: Conviction: The ending, including if you spare Reed.

Alan Wake: The scene on the stage.

Halo: Reach: When Jorge dies, and the last mission when Emile mans the MAC gun.

Jak 3? It was also awesome when Jak found about who was his father. That was really sad. Maybe I was just a kid back then but it was pretty epic.

The whole series is epic. I wished it had've continued.

The precurser reveal was hilarious, but the father moment was a bit obvious.

"Jak, if you were my son, (which you totally aren't) I would be so proud of you. But tragically, I lost my son long ago, and I will never, ever ever see him ever again."

While this isn't the most epic moment I've ever experience in a video game, it's one worth mentioning.

I was playing Killing Floor for the first time earlier, and the slow motion effect is so awesome! It's really epic when a zombie is jumping towards you while you're blowing its brains out in slow motion.

Warcraft 2 Beyond the Dark Portalfirst Alliancemission, when you put together a team full of awesome to take the battle to Draenor. Very cool to see some of these people again in Outland in WoW.

Starcraft, the end of the Terran chapter, when Arcturus establishes the Dominion and proclaims unity of the Terran colonies against the aliens.

Final Fantasy X, when the group find out what Spira and Yevon really stand for. Also, the confrontation with Yunalesca. But hell, there are so many epic moments in FF.

The jeep escape at the end of Metal Gear Solid

Liquid: "Not yet Snake! Its not over yet!

That s.o.b just kept on coming back. I'm still trying to figure out how he survived a helicopter crash and a fall off Metal Gear Rex.
