Don't worry, I know there is a thread about thing you really should have discovered in games, but this is different.
My brother (finally) decided to try two player Dynasty Warriors 3. Fair enough. I let him use my l33t character, and I choose some other bod. Slicing our way through enemies, as I explain the controls to him, he hits on this 'magic' button (the musou attach). I explain what it does, how having low health makes it more attractive and what-not. Having read the manual, I tell him that if you press circle at the same time, then you get some uber-musou attack. Ready, 3, 2, 1, go...
The screen goes full-screen. Time freezes, the camera slowly pans round the two player characters, with the musou sound effect. This is gonna be good, you think to yourself. Wham, time unfreezes, and both characters go into a frenzy, slicing up around 200 enemies, with lightning everywhere, corpses piling up, and a huge smile on both our faces.
"Holy ****!"
Indeed. Has there ever been a moment in a game where you do something so amazing, so wondeful, that you can only say whoa! I don't mean cut-scenes, I mean actually doing it yourself. Like scoring a wonderful goal in PES. Like cleaving a whole pile on enemies in Viewtiful Joe without even touching the floor.
Tell me. I'm sad like that, I want to know.
