What's your ultimate 'best moment' in a game? Doesn't have to be the best game you ever played, just the best moment.
Mine would be either be: doing an amazing grenade launcher shot in Goldeneye killing another player (from the large bottom room to the base of the long slopes leading off of the large top room). We both stopped and were just amazed. Near impossible to re-create but very cool.
Or: The other would be a 'filmic moment' in Perfect Dark multi. Had 1 bullet in a magnum. A computer player runs in spraying the glass windows with bullets from a CP130. I duck under the window at the same time as the comp opens fire. Then I pop up and kill him with the 1 bullet I had.
Classic moment.

The end, usually.
hunting your mates on alien vs predator, when you are the predator and they are marines.
Went into John Rambo mode (but in 1944) on Medal of Honor: Allied Assault for PC.
It was one of those moments when you just go "AAAAARRGGGGGHHHHHH" and unload every bullet in your machine gun evrywhere, and spraying everyone around you. Thing is, I ran out of ammo. I sprinted for some cover, and ducked. All I had was 8 bullets left in some poxy little pistol, and one grenade. There was 10 of them.
"Screw it" I thought. I raised into a standing position from behind the crates, lobbed the grenade remotely towards them, waited for the explosion, and just ran at them all.
*Bang* *Spin* *Bang* *Spin* *Bang* *Spin* *Bang* *Spin* *Bang* *Spin* *Bang* *Spin* *Bang* *Spin* *Bang*
Perfect. I'd unloaded every bullet into each one of their heads/chests as I sprinted towards them, hoping the sporadic spray of gunfire wouldn't hit me. I was chuffed.

Perfect Dark, the finishing cut-scene of Skedar Ruins.
Fifa 2001 - Scoring pass my mate with my Goalkeeper on the half-ay line. Went on to win the game 4-1.
Super Mario World.
Pick any moment.
Pick any moment.
Putting NiGHTS: Into Dreams into my Saturn, and every gaming hour thereafter
Thief: The Dark Project, running through a Medievil castle being chased by 3 swordsmen and two archers, hiding in an upstairs bedroom and hunting them down and killing them one by one.
