I eat, sleep and breathe xbox and although every second of play is different, there are a few moments that you remember for a long time.
I thought I'd start a thread for people to post their own brilliant feats and hopefully share the best things they've done with us all.

My most recent was on Project Gotham Racing 2 - platinum street race and I had held the lead for most of the race. On the second last corner of the final lap I spun out - falling to third place. Aa it had been a tough slog of 5 minutes, I got annoyed and just raced - I hit a bump in the road and my car sailed pass the cars in front right on the finish line. I STILL can't believe that I finished first.

It's not much of a feat, but it'll stay in my memory for ages.

My most memorable moment came about 30 minutes after getting it home on launch day, when I was playing Halo and suddenly realised... "This ain't all it's cracked up to be."

Second most memorable was when the HD failed and needed replacing.

I agree, Halo 2 wasn't all it was meant to be. Still pretty good though! In fact another memorable moment was when I was playing Halo 2 - it isn't much but melee attacking a Jackal and watching his head smack against the wall behind him. Very funny!

First to spring to mind was bouncing off a tree in RalliSport Challenge 2 and hitting someone. They went flying off the side of a mountain because of that. Totally accidentally of course.

Biggles - "Oh I appear to have hit a tree... AGAIN"

That is very memorable. :D

Hedfix's endless stream of Galil Arm shots.

No matter what team or level I was on, that Galil Arm was audible from 90% of the map.

That and twisted conversations with stoned people at 5am. ahhh

Mental Note : Get back into Live gaming again sometime soon.

there's no doubt though that it takes over your life.

:D

Many a comment has been made of my trust Galil.

"As soon as I hear it going I know I'm dead" is the one I can remember at the mo.

Also I've been told I've got camping down to a fine art through my 'stop, wait, listen, move, repeat' tactics. (ie I only wait in one spot for around 30 seconds if I'm stealthing about).

If you're the last one on the map against me 8/10 times I'm gonna take you down. :D

Damn I need live back, think I'll order that router tomorrow.
