            I'm going to say; Playing NFL2K1 and or PSO online over a 56k modem on the DC !! Man was I shocked at how well Sega did it ! I was in all honestly not expecting too much and than Wowed by the actual sweetness that was playing online console games ;)

Beatin OoT was pretty awesome. And hard because I was seven. Playing Pokemon Silver for the first time was amazing. Those were the good ole' days.

Your a mod now? My greatest moments were first playing SMB on my dads old NES, it was the first game I ever played. Opening my N64 or wii. Beating Paper Mario with my sister, it was our favorite game.

For me it was playing on Dead or Alive Ultimate for the first time on Xbox LIVE. My hobby of videogames had severely waned to the point where I would go an entire year with no console as I'd lose interest and get tired of playing alone (none of my friends really like videogames that much). Dead or Alive Ultimate came out n I was like "what the hell i'll give it a try with the free LIVE service it came with.". I then became addicted to videogames all over again.

This guy is the N64 KID!!! My moment is probably getting my head sawed off in RE4. It was the first time I had died in a game that really shocked me. I almost dropped the controller.

First time I played Resident Evil was amazing, and bionic commando was like "REAL LIFE" in my younger days. Golden eye, my eyes exploded when I saw soldiers reacting when shot. Quake world, bunch of friends playing a free for all match, man I was speechless, it was sick fun. And recently, Motorstorm, the first game I really felt "This is next gen."

I think either playing the first Paper Mario, because it showed me that not all RPGs had to involve confusing dialog, inane story lines, and gender confused characters (FF or any JRPG).  That, or playing Half-Life for the first time, because it showed me that not all FPS's had to involve dumbass characters, horrific story lines, retarded means of telling a story, and incessant mindless shooting.

I have to say Playing halo 16 players for the first time, or beating Zelda OOT

Also hearing that hang em is now on halo 2 after wating years for that to happen

salvod123
I wouldn't say it's my greatest, but defeating one of the top clans in GR for the Xbox single handedly after all my teammates got killed. What makes it actually impressive is that I killed all 8 with just my MP5. Not too shabby seeing how the other team had 2 snipers and the rest using Assault rifles and machine guns. :)

While I have plenty of memories from my younger N64 days, I'm going to stick to some recent next-gen moments:

First--Oblivion.  All of it.  First game I bought for my 360, and also the first RPG I've really ever liked.  When you first exit the sewers, when I first saw an Oblivion Gate and the sky turned red, when I first got randomly attacked, seeing the monsters get bigger as the game moved on, blasting the Adoring Fan off of Dive Rock, the fight in the sky in NotN (absolutely INCREDIBLE)...so many good times.  And I just got Shivering Isles, so it just keeps getting better.

Next-GRAW 1.  Third mission, when the embassy explodes.  Scared the crap out of me.  Not only was the explosion brilliant, but having to climb into the rubble and then fight off the waves of soldiers coming into kill you as the dramatic music came on...first moment that really made me say "Wow...this is what I bought a next-gen console for."

Next-Beating Ninja Gaiden Black for the first time.  It took me almost a year with lots of restarts and cursing, but when I finally did it and saw that ending cutscene I felt unstoppable. 

There are so many more, but I don't feel like dragging this out :-)

Definately the first time I killed all 8 players on the other team in Socom 2. That's the fastest my heart ever beat from a videogame.
