What the most memorable moment from any video game?

A certain sythe sweep near the end of Grim Fandango.
The dip in the river near the end of Bioshock Infinite.
Jumping into the thing near the end of Outer Wilds, and coming down where you come down going through what you go through.

Time to reach into that icebox for that cockatrice corpse, since pit traps aren't a thing there

It technically happened in a video game and I will never forget it.
But also getting Strogified in Quake 4.

Lifting the Master Sword in Link to the Past
Beating Melenia in Elden Ring
Jumping through the first painting in Super Mario 64
Bad:
Playing LoL the first and only time
Playing Burning Crusade for WoW at release and picking up the first blue item in the first area that made my Tier 3 items I worked months for, completely obsolete.

I remember playing Hollow Knight lost in an area really needing a bench. I found a coin slot in a room and put a coin in. A bench popped out of the ground and unfolded for me. Then a speaker popped out the wall playing some mellow music. There was a little glass window with fish swimming on the other side. I really liked the game. After that I loved it.

Glados's anger in Portal
The ending of Dragons Keep in Borderlands
It's such a heavy and beautiful moment in a game with a pony called buttstalion.

The first time a Reaper Leviathan attacks you in Subnautica.
The first time you launch a rocket in Factorio.
The first time you do a bunch of stuff in KSP.
Can't remember which edition of Fallout it was, but my first Deathclaw encounter was almost as scary as the Reaper Leviathan. But RL still wins.

When King Regis says, "Walk tall, my son". I break down crying everytime. Like how Cornelius needs to cry at the Testicular Cancer meetings, I use FF15 to cry. Such a sad tale of roadtrips and youth and friends.

Half Life when you reach the surface for the first time.
Same with Portal 2. That tiny bit of turret opera just gets me everytime

The Normandy level in Medal of honor was so thrilling. Also the submarine base level.

The games that broke the 4th wall, specifically Psycho Mantis in Metal Gear Solid or all of Eternal Darkness.

Did you really manage to haul an ice box all the way up there? That's impressive.

Someone asked about best games and I said ff10. Part of it was squares graphics compared to anything at the time were just on another level. The whole opening scene blew everyone away that I know at the time and same with some other scenes in the game right up to the reveals about some of the characters existence. So really great story combined with next level graphics in a very story centric game.

How to be me. Someone else might have got it wrong.
That scene still hurts .

Bioshock’s big twist was so well done. I still think about that one a lot especially in games where there’s no explanation for why you’re doing a mission.
“A man chooses… a slave obeys…”

Atlas literally saying "Now, would you kindly do this? Would you kindly do that?"
