Most memorable moments you've experienced in a PS3 game?

Let me explain. I'm talking about those very rare moments during a game you're telling yourself : "Damn that's awesome, I'm gonna remember that one for a long, long time." I'm talking about single-player, not the time where you sniped 12 dudes in a row online or something like that (although it can be fun as well).

Some of my personal moments were :

- This one may look weird, but it inspired this thread. The first time I did the Nurburging Nordschleife in GT5 (VW Polo race, amateur or professional, don't remember), I was having a hard time with some of the previous races while adapting to my new steering wheel), and I nailed that one, won by 10 or 15 seconds if not more, got almost all my turns perfect. It was awesome, I kept telling myself : "sh*t that's a freaking great track". It felt great.

- The train chapter in Uncharted 2. Exhilerating to say the least.

- All Ghillied Up. CoD4 : Modern Warfare. You know the one.

- Guitar Hero III : Through the Fire and Flames, even on Easy and Medium it was an "epic" feeling.

- Ravenholm, Half-Life 2.

Then there are the games when there are too many great moments to write them here, like Bioshock or Fallout 3.

My most memorable moment has to be when John Marston first enters Mexico. It was sunset when I made my way there, and hearing the Jose Gonzalez song while looking out at the wide-open expanse was absolutely stunning. The song was a nice touch, since it was the first actual song played in the game. It caught me off guard.

I would also like to add my vote to John Marston first entering Mexico.

Other memorable moments would be:

- The final few chapters in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Just gave a very climactic feeling :)

- Final Cutscene in R&CF: A Crack in Time

- The opening in Assassin's Creed 2 when it displays the title at the beginning of a new game. Just made me feel like I was started a great story.

- The opening level in God of War III

- Completing CoD:WaW on Veteran Difficulty and achieving platinum, oh and the ending. (that was so dang hard to beat on verteran!)

- All of Uncharted 2 ;)

- The Sly Collection

A great question. My PS3 memorable moments:

-Grand Theft Auto IV: just traveling around the city day and night and just experiencing how expansive it is and realizing the series has definitely reached the next level.

-Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots- the intro that involves Snake's camo and a watermelon (too cool)

-Red Dead Redemption: experiencing the gorgeous sun, rain, cloud, lightning, and thunder effects (the game is just absolutely beautiful)

-Resident Evil 5: how addictive the demo was and experiencing that actual level in the actual game (talk about intense!) I believe it's the public assembly level with the axeman.

-God of War III: first boss fight without a doubt!

-Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare- ALL GHILIED UP!

-inFamous: jumping down from a tall building the first time (and thinking I was going to die) and NOT losing a shred of energy!

-Prototype: running full speed down the street, floating from building to building, and my personal favorite: running up the side of skyscraper.

-Just Cause 2: I don't remember where I was exactly, but I was looking down on one of the cities at night and you could see the lights of the buildings shimmering in the distance and looking up and seeing a plane flying overhead with it's tail light blinking (it's the little things and it showed there was a great attention to detail). Another beautiful (and fun) game.

-Valkyria Chronicles: how addicted I was to the demo and the main game has too many memories to count, but I'll name just one: Desert Duel, Batomys, and winning the level.

-BioShock: the intro to the city of Rapture.

-Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution: In the game you're able to launch a nuclear missle and completely destroy the target. I've done it before it just never looked so cool.

-NFL Tour: how terrible it was.Same goes for Ridge Racer 7! (just my opinion).

-The Orange Box: playing Team Fortress 2 for the first time (what a cool game)

-Little Big Planet: playing some of the player created levels and enjoying a lot of them. Also, the Wedding Reception, Metropolis, and The Islands levels were sweet!

-Modnation Racers: unleashing level 3 missles, launching in the air/doing tricks, and drifting.

-Fight Night Round 4: Ali vs Tyson!

-Tekken 6: sweet graphics, cool music, and great gameplay/horrible load times brought it all down!

-Fallout 3 Game of the Year Edition: entering VATS for the first time and seeing the damaging results I inflicted on the enemy (BRUTAL)

Assassin's Creed: Climbing a viewpoint for the first time

Uncharted 2: The opening, and the whole train level.

Just Cause 2: The infinite freedom and fun.

FF10 , had many moments for me.

leaving the city. The tension between Yuna and the main character.

Things with Khamari, Auron etc.

When you are entering or leaving certain areas for the first time(s)

man that game had an awesome cast.

Fisticuffs with Liquid Ocelot grumpy old men style to the snake eater theme in MGS4. Nothing... NOTHING comes close. MrSelf-Destruct

Dead Space 2 - While playing hardcore mode, I've had sweaty palms and i was nervous every second. Told myself "It's been a long time since i got scared again".

Batman AA: beating up villains never felt this great. XD

Dead Space - Entering the Ishimura and the lights go out and that damn "Twinkle,twinkle" theme song on the commericials freaked me out.

Dead Space 2 - Reboarding the Ishimura. I had total flashbacks and remembered every part of the ship. Erie.

Castlevania:LOS - The ending. One of the best endings I've seen in a game in a long, long time.

Killzone 2 - The ending. Walking out of the building in the end and looking up to see all the ships. Epic. Bring on Killzone 3.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warefare 2 "No Russian" - I was like WTF!!!

Metal Gear Solid 4: The ending and a monkey drinking cola.

Resident Evil 5: Getting eaten by an alligator. Whoa!Does it get any better than that.

Resident Evil 5: Finding out Jill is still alive.

[QUOTE="MrSelf-Destruct"]Fisticuffs with Liquid Ocelot grumpy old men style to the snake eater theme in MGS4. Nothing... NOTHING comes close. Ninja_Zombie83

Half Life 2 - Walking out of the train station and seeing City 17 for the first time.

Metal Gear Solid 4 - The first three chapters. I never played a MGS game before (I never even heard of it) and me and my best friend played through the first three chapters in one night. It was amazing. Sadly, we both thought the final two chapters sucked though.

Call of Duty 4 - All ghillied up.

Batman AA: beating up villains never felt this great. XD

'nuff said

MGS4- Rex vs Ray, Snake vs Ocelot/Liquid

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune- the first few hours, nothing specific. Just liked the setting.

Resident Evil 5- Punching a boulder.

Warhawk, nothing specific. First online PS3 game I got hooked on.

GTA IV- bank robbery mission

Uncharted 2- train level, helicopter battle, the falling building...hell, half the game.

Heavenly Sword- "Hundreds upon hundreds of enemies charging towards you, have fun with these cannons"

God of War III- first half hour/Poseidon battle. Best game opening in history. Hades & Cronos battles, Ares' tomb was a nice touch.

Hot crap burgers, one I missed: Demon's Souls- Dragon in 1-1, the atmosphere of world 3, Flamelurker, fending off my first invader in a 10 minute battle left with a sliver of HP, 4-1, Maiden Astraea "fight", False King fight and more.

In no particular order.

Uncharted 2 - jumping from truck to truck only seconds before they blow up playing on crushing.

Metal Gear Solid 4 - The true ending after the credits.

Grand Theft Auto Ballad of gay tony - Every racist thing Yusuf Amir said while playin' this song.

sitting down in oblivion i never just sat down in a game before it was amazing.

picking something up in oblivion, i could never just pick something up before in a game.

falling on your horse in red dead redemption and mounting it.

Fighting that giant bone monster thing in Twilight princess(forgot what it was.)

Killing Hades in God Of War(just the though of killing the ruler of the underworld.)

Jumping from the Cathedral Church in Venice i believe it was in Assassins creed 2.(took me a while to reach the top.)

Finally catching up to Dutch in RDR and watching him jump off a cliff xD

The entirety of Valkyria Chronicles.

MGS4 had the most epic moments in any PS3 game I played. Rex vs Ray. Raiden vs Vamp, etc. And there was that chilling moment the first timeyou hear that gunshot when Snake had the gun in his mouth.

Assassin's Creed 2: The ending when Minerva appears and shes "looking" at you.

CoD4: Ghillie in the Mist

Uncharted 2: the entire Himalayas scene

FF7- When Aeris is killed although there were several moments in that game I can only describe as stunning.

MGS- When u on the elevator and the creepy music is playing and Otacon notices the weight limit on the elevator being excessive and puts that together with Stealth Suits missing and u realize there are like 5 guys in Stealth Suits standing behind u!!

Dead Space- When u just board the Ishimura and the lights cut out for the first time and u can hear loud noises all round u OH F******* creepy!!

Uncharted 2- Every single moment of it.

I forgot one

Parasite Eve- When u are at the opera show at the beginning of the game and Eve starts spontaneously combusting everyone. Nothing particularly special about this now but at that time in 1997 this type of cinematic sequence wuz just abnormal and surpassed evrything that wuz being made at that time.

Heavy Rain jerking me out of the ended I wanted because it didn't recognize an accurate 6-axis motion. That soured my whole opinion on the game.

The introduction of Drebin in MGS4. He's my favorite character in the game and this was my first MGS game and it was like whoa, they just threw in like a 20 minute anime episode to introduce a character. I'd never played a game with cutscenes that long but I thought it was pretty cool that it was like they regulated it for me so that right as I might feel like turning off the PS3 to watch TV, they show a TV episode in the game and right as I get tired of watching TV and want to play a game, the game goes back to gameplay.

The end of MGS4's first boss fight. Because of her story and the fact that she would die on her own, I really didn't want to kill her after she popped out of her suit but I don't think the game would have let me do that.

MGS4's boss fight in the snow. That was a kick ass battle and very intense.

For me it would have to be:

• On Heavy Rain when (blank) (blank) (blank) and (blank) (blank) (blankity) (blank) does (blank)

• The opening part of GoW 3

• On Call of Duty: Black Ops when I realized "Oh crap. This game's gonna suck."

• And of course, the Castlevania: LoS epilogue scene

I remember I hadn't played videogames for many years when I sat down with my uncle to check out Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. The opening level on the boat when it's starting to capsize. I do believe I was actually leaning over to one side thinking: "Holy ****!"

Also, the opening to God of War 3 actually had my heart pumping fast. They always go all out in the beginning of the GoW games.

And climbing the Citadel at the end of Mass Effect 1.

Uncharted 2 and FF13's opening sequences, not to mention other parts of the game (especially the Barthandelus fights).

Like playing a movie. Didn't hurt that I had the lights off, either...

Spoiler warning... In Heavy Rain when Ethan cuts off his finger. Holy crap that made me sick to my stomach it was so graphic and realisitic with the noises and emotion. I actually felt fear and anxiety.nightshade869

I agree, nasty as hell...

Others:

Demon Souls: When me and a buddy turned on this game for the first time, played like 4hours and never made it pass the first level we were like "this is so difficult, nearlyimpossible" and turned off the player. Next day, we turned on the game to give it 1more try, and then we finished about 5-6 levels. Yeah awsome. The whole atmosphere and all - EPIC! Also defeating a boss for the first time - BIG high five

AC: As others said jumping off a tall building. Was like "now we going to die" - then landing in a haystack. Great
