What is your most memorable gaming moment?

[wheelaa]

[QUOTE=Pikman]It was during the summer of '96 when playing import Mario 64 on acid.[QUOTE]

Nice one. I remember playing VF2 on the saturn in such a state and at the start of the fight when the camera swoops up and down onto the ring I swear my messed up little mind thought I was flying into the screen.

Playing Citadel on the bbc for the first time..wow..Citadel..first speech I remember hearing on a game and boy was I impressed.

playing Garou on my antique neo geo machine

very limited machine but displaying graphics that even the dreamcast struggled with (sprite size etc)

now i loath the game but its a wonder and an achievement to get that running on a 24bit machine

Easy, Looking for sailors in Shenmue

lol. those mega64 guys did that too

my most memorable moment was on my megadrive, finding out (by fluke) that the helicopter boss in eswat (first level) had to be reached by jumping off a building...

then the music for the boss kicked in...

ooooo

a close second would be getting streetfighter 2 sce with two 6-button pads. what a sunday that was

Getting killed for the first time on Alien 3 on SNES! The movie sample to end them all:

"Game over man, game over!"

Hudson should have his own game!

"Sharp Sticks IV: the stickening."

The intro, and 1st level to Panzer Dragoon. Nothing will ever top that

What about Saga's opening? I only played it a year and a half ago, and even by today's standards, it's sickeningly gripping in terms of execusion. One of the best openings to any game.

if you were in Southend in 1989 and ever went into Mr. B's or Electric Avenue you'd find me camped out on the Strider cab... I lived there. And Bad Dudes.

Holy ****!! So you were the one who hogged the Stider cab, I too gave that very machine much play, until I got it on the Megadrive Bad Dudes tucked up in the back was also a fav of mine.

Bad Dudes tucked up in the back was also a fav of mine.

Hoggin' it with my m8 Pete And 4P X-Men.

- Kids "Can we join in?"

- Us "No, piss off."

We did the very same thing with the Turtles no wonder the southend youth turned out like they have

[no angel]

there's two for me, one - hearing the howl when i first started up secret of mana on the snes, and two - watching my bastard action replay crash when i completed ff3 AND IT HAD TAKEN ME ****ING AGES. that one moment has irrepairably scarred me for life

[The Game]

Ghouls & Ghosts on the Jap megadrive. Purchased this from Supervision next day C.O.D. played it to death with mates. Completed the game with one man, twice round that is, you got sent back to lthe first level after defeating lucifer, to do it all again. Pretty special at the time. Also completed Thunderforce 3 with one life on jap megadrive.

Yeah that is class, Orta intro is mind blowing too, but the 1st game intro is so very special
