What was a moment in anygame for Xbox360 where you just said wow to the graphics or the gameplay.  Mine was in Ghost recon where I destroyed an apc or a tank in a bridge and a huge fireball just went threw the tunnel and i had to duck underneath it.  That was one of the coolest things i have ever experienced in a game.

The first time I knocked some boxer out in Fight Night Round 3.  The sweat getting knocked off the slaiva and the blood mixed in, plus the ripple of his cheeks after the devestating blow.  you actually got to see his eyes roll back and his nose crushed in.  it was beautifully rendered in gresome detail

Yeah. When I first knocked someone down, the face in the slow-motion replay was amazing. It made me say "WOW!"

For me, it was definitely GRAW. BUT, most recently, when I threw a pipe bomb on a car in Saints Row (demo), and the thing exploded in pieces. Also, when I was driving down the street, and the draw distance was just amazing. Brilliant.

The entire game of Oblivion.  I keep looking around, especially when it's foggy out, and just marvel at the graphics.  Absolutely amazing.  If Splinter Cell Double Agent looks as good as this and plays like Chaos Theory I will be in heaven.

Yeah, what the hell is dive rock?

For me though it was walking out of the sewers in Oblivion...I spent the next hour just walking around look for cool scenic views.

The moment I knew this was all for real was last night as a matter of fact. I was sitting in my living room, lights out, and I booted up Condemned which I had just that night rented, and while I had a few games myself, something about the amazing lighting effects just blew me away.

I can't tell you how many times I've said " Wow " while playing that game, and I can't honestly imagine going back to the PS2/GCN/Xbox after that.

1, Ghost Recon single player, the suround sound and the graphics just blew me away, i kept saying "WOW and OMG!" .
2. PDZ online - I love Onslaught, i can be played for hours on end with 32 players
3. Oblivion - Not much to say, its pretty obvious
4. Fight night.. - when the demo came out i was soo blown away... wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5.PGR3 - awesome graphics in this game to, all the backgrounds and buildings are all done up , its not just a background... and the feel of speed u get in that game when you look outside,
6. Condemned was the first game i played when i got my 360 on launch day and it was sooo awesome with the finishing kills and the suround sound, also the graphics and story where top notch... i just wnated to keep playing and finish this game..

when playing condemned and i hit a guy with a 2x4 with bolts in it and he turned his head an spit his tooth out and looked back at me, i was just like "wow", and then later when i hit the weapon out of a guys hand and he went down to his knees and started searching for it with his hands becuase it was too dark to see where his weapon landed, and the animation was perfect he was looking for it with such panic,  i was again like "wow"

The single greatest "wow" moment for me so far had to be when I stepped out of the sewers in Oblivion. I just kind of put the controller down and sat there, completely astonished. If there is a better moment so far in any game on this system, I haven't seen it.

same here. Condemned just all the way around was great for me. What i really loved though was when someone would come up to you and they were unarmed. They'd see you with a big ass weapon and take off running to look for something to fight with.

I must agree, but i haven't got the chance to play GRAW yet COD2, PDZ, Kameo, and the may demos i played were nice, but Oblivion was the first to put my faith in the 360

Oblivion definitely. When you first start the play the game and you are crawling though the dungeon then after a hour or so you come to the gate and....... The sight of the sun in the trees, the land in front of me, the mountains in the distance, the sight of the tower over my head, the trees, the water the birds chirping in surround sound. Then the night with the stars and the wind, The sunrise. And the thought, "I can go anywhere I want". It was breathtaking.

I'm shocked no one has mentioned Kameo. It was the first game i played on my 360. Through the little tutorial (in the castle) it lookd good....just good. But then I got to the Enchanted Kingdom (I was playing in HD btw....in Kameo HD makes it look 10x better). I put down my controller and just stared. The separate blades of grass blowing in the wind, the sparkle in the air, the way the tress blow, the sparkling water, the way the grass moves when Kameo flies over it, the amazing colors, the fire effects, the reflection...all mind blowing. Also the Throne Room was amazing...all those particle effects in the air.

For you guys who were asking, Dive Rock is the NE most part of Cyrodill. It's pretty hard to get up there because it's really high up in the mountians.

The first "wow" was in COD2 when the Nazis came storming out of their Headquarters in the first Russian mission. Never seen that many enemies on the screen at-once (along with a dozen Russians, as well) with smoke and gunfire everywhere.

When I handed over $700 cash to the guy at EB and got my 360! That was the first wow moment. But seriously Condemned was my first graphical wow moment.
