The Overseer Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I would have to say when I left Vault 101 for the first time in Fallout 3. That would be my most cherished memory in gaming. What's yours? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantanoice Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 When I was 12, my local movie theatre ran a Mario Kart: Double Dash tournament. This was still a couple of months before it released. I entered, this being my first tournament, and ended up placing 3rd overall (losing to two neckbeards in their 30s but whatever). I ended up winning a Gamecube and a copy of the game. It was incredible because suddenly I knew I was actually good? At these video game things? Plus my family weren't well off and couldn't afford a GC normally. Since then I've entered a few more competitions, placing/winning a few and getting more prizes. I'm a little sad that Twitch wasn't a thing during my teenage years because I would have loved pursuing my gaming further on that platform. You gotta deal with the hand you're dealt, I guess.

Katri Marcell Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Definitely the feeling of completing Dark Souls. If this doesn't fill you with happiness in gaming, I don't know what is 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuineaPigGirl312 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Either beating the final trials in Breath of the Wild at like 2 am with that AWESOME theme playing the in background... or when I read the vantage story in Horizon Zero Dawn for the first time... is it embarrassing to say that I cried during both times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 It might have been that time I beat that pesky level on Pitfall Harry (on Atari). I had been trying for weeks and never could! Anyway, I'm sure there were plenty of other times. I mean, I can think of all sorts of difficult bosses on Mario games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyxx Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Of recent memory I think it was while playing Undertale. I had a bit of a shaky connection, so it would sort of drop in and out a bit. I remember playing up until the point where the game actually crashes on purpose, but when it did, my connection cut out. I legit felt like the game was haunted. Scared the crap out of me.

Joant73 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I always remember in the first Red Dead Redemption when you arrive in Mexico for the first time it plays this song by Jose Gonzales, "Far Away," and you just get to ride through this beautiful desert country-side just listening and taking it all in. It just makes for a very beautiful and immersive moment in the game that always stuck with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Finishing The Last Of Us is one of my most memorable moments in game. That gut-punch ending is so haunting and emotional. What a freakin' game! Also, finishing Deadly Premonition was very memorable, as well. The ending really helped to cement itself as one of my all time fave games.

Demon_skeith Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Beating all the missions in perfect dark on perfect agent, those were extremely hard and took weeks of trial and error to finally beat them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaphoneStallone Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I have many along the same theme. The amount of time I'd be stuck on a game for about a week, then wake up early on a Saturday morning and clock the bit and go on a run was insane. I must have been constantly sub-consciously distracted as a kid - but I always got there. So yeah, my memory is sitting in a quiet house where everyone else is asleep and feeling so damn accomplished because, well, I finally did it.

Alexander. Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 As embrassing as it might sound, when I first tried the Minecraft Demo before my teens (11-12 years) I built a dirt house. Then, a zombie approached and I jumped out my skin, I was so scared. So yeah, this childhood-gaming memory has to be one of the funniest moments aswell as being memorable.

Shortie861 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I think my most memorable moment in gaming would have to be a time when I played Rainbow Six Vegas 2 with friends and it was on a map called Villa. There was an area with tree's in the centre of the map and I remember all our team placed our C4's around the tree's and then one person blew their C4 and the whole lot went up. There was a huge flash and it killed around 3 people. We laughed so hard it was hilarious! Even now I wish that we had game capture back then as that would have been the most amazing thing to see and play back even now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hydro Flame Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Finishing the Suicide Mission in Mass Effect 2. That will forever be my favorite mission in any video game ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Can't say there are that many singular moments in video games that I can specifically recall. It's usually the whole experience. Climbing the WWII radio tower in Tomb Raider (2013) Mass Effect 1's ending Emerging from the sewers in Oblivion for the first time The homeless level in Beyond Two Souls System Shock 2's villain reveal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 If you have any idea how difficult it was for me to complete Dark Souls, I don't really know how to get over that feeling till today. It was an awesome experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
