Just today at the end of bioshock 2 (SPOILERS!) when you are waiting for eleanor to boil the water and splicers and big daddys are coming at you, well I set up 3 auto turrets and hypontized an alpha and a brute splicer then once she was done boiling eleanor got into the fight I didn't shoot a shot and wiped out two dozen splicers.

Taking a few extra seconds at the very end of Resident Evil 3 to shoot Nemesis in the face with my magnum, after he stopped moving I remember cheering out loud and flipping my screen off. "TAKE THAT, BI*CH!"

Absolutely spanking the Dragon God after he destroys you in the tutorial of Demon's Souls.
i thought the demon killed you in the tutorial but for me beating tower knight or getting the monks cowl first try without taking damage (both on demons souls)

Men of War.
Dying three mins of a match my team were losing. I had one puma left. Snuck it round to behind enemy lines, on RHS top of a 8 player map set to landscape (i.e. huge). Then drove, in direct control mode, right behind enemy lines.

Obviously, to begin with, tanks were facing the wrong way, but by the time I hit middle of the map, they had all spun, and I had 6+ tank destroyers facing me, with shots flying (and somehow glancing, rather than destorying, as they had done to my TIGER). Still, I managed no penetrating shots, so it still looked a bit pointless.

Then, I drove over a d-17 (fixed artillery placement), killing weapon and crew. Then found a katyushka launcher, which I blew up in a firey explosion. My team is still considerably behind in kill points. Killed a second katyushka, which unwisely chose this moment to fire, despite its proximity to my rampaging puma, revealing its position. Then, with 6 tank destroyers STILL firing at me, I sped right past the nearest one, machine-gunning random infantry on the way, to discover that my actions had put my team ahead by 3 points (we had been like 300 behind), with 30 seconds to go.

Awesome. Slightly lost its touch when one of the TDs roared up behind my Puma (I'd stopped to type my disbelief at my allies), and blew it up. But we still won (by four points, don't you know), so it was worth it.

Beating Ninja Gaiden in NES as a kid. Why am I better at old NES games as a kid, while I suck at them now I'm an adult???

After getting every upgrade in shadow complex and destroying every single thing in my way at the end fight. Of course I literally was invincible...

After 8 heads killstreak with my new broadsword in TF2 in less than a minute, I was yelling viking jibberish with a scottish accent. I just felt so damn manly! :p (this was actually after the targe got nerf'd, I don't play demoman much)

The most recent one, and the only one that comes to mind for now, is completing Mass Effect 2 on the "Insanity" setting. Man, it was hard (especially when teammates disregarded your orders), so it certainly left me feeling quite empowered (albeit a bit frustrated at times).

It was a fine day of Guardian on a cold Avalanche map...
I heard the news. The enemy was bunkered up behind that house. I snaked forward, hoping to get a glimpse. I saw bright flashes of fires as lead whisked by.
There he was.
XX7eetSnipaX. The enemy leader.
They were distracted. Too busy shooting at my team across the road.
I sprinted as if the shadows themselves were on my side, nothing could detect me.
I prepared my chainsaw to indulge itself in the flesh of my enemies...

The leader never saw it coming. I wonder if he knew I was ripping his back open before he died.
One of them turned around, horrified to see me. I went for him next, but our metal saws met. He had no chance, he fell instantly.

The last, I could not believe he had not noticed. Why hadn't he killed me? As he watched as his former comrades exploded into meaty chunks of his failure, I then sliced him into a thousand pieces.

I had single-handly finished this match, but then I noticed the host had left. Game over.

I was laughing like a madman for days on end.

I especially enjoyed beating Chai in the arcade in the original Shenmue. Storyline wise I'm pretty sure the game intends you to lose, but with a hell of a lot of dodging and skill you can get the best of him. The confined space is what really makes it difficulty to beat the nippy bugger.

After that the rest of the game felt like a cake walk, and I played it just experimenting with different moves rather than making an effort. Still love it though.

Getting your powers back when you lose them in Prototype. Makes you realise just how good they were.

Oh and always making squad mvp in MAG. I actually can't believe I dominate in games like MAG, when I still haven't gotten a nuke in MW2. On the other hand, my bro, who actually kept count of his nukes and stopped bothering since it got old for him (the count ended at 87 nukes before he moved on to getting titles and callsigns from less used killstreaks), doesn't do as well in MAG.

Soloing the HR6 Tigrex quest, Land of Tremors. Man, none of my friends could do it, so I decided to give it a shot on my own... 3rd attempt and I managed to do it! Then I looked at the other available quests... MHFU... So hard!

Any pokemon game if you decide to level only one pokemon instead of a whole team. It's like they didn't even think people would try it or something. In sapphire, I was, on average, ten levels higher than anyone I was fighting.

Interesting topic.

Mine would have to be beating the Water Temple in OoT, without the Zora tunic.

That's right, I went through it all wearing the Goron Tunic.

My brother still can't believe I did it.

I cant figure out how you did it either.

As for me;

As heavy in TF2, running under the bridge (2fort) from my base to their base, continually firing my minigun, killing 11 players without stopping. I was laughing hard (they were litterally jumping in front of my gun), and i died on top of the stairs since i was injured and alone.

Killing a "big daddy" (the big drill variety IIRC) in a small room, in my first playthrough of bioshock.. without dying. Only managed it once. Pure luck.

Or -almost- beating "Ocarina of time" with absolute minimum items.. only those i MUST use to succeed in minimal ammounts, but i did use a zora tunic, no biggoron sword, no nuts, 1 of 3 spell (fire orb to open shadow temple), small magic bar, no defensive boost ect. And ONLY the starting 3 heart containers. Not that hard, actually.
I only dropped once against bongo-bongo (missed his eye once with an arrow, he insta-dropped me.. without the bigoronsword that fight is much longer), beated ganondorf, but could not get though Ganon without getting hit by a lucky swipe.

Nothing in particular, just the occasional epic killstreak in MW2.

Actually, I just remembered the 4 heroic victories I got in the same turn in Rome - Total War. I had one army at full strength, then the Julii sent all of their armies in the area at it one after another. I won them all :D

...WHAT! I remember playing the Water Temple I hated that place I always got stuck for days. I don't think you did beat it without the water tunic.
Quick tip: Use the 'quote' button in the bottom right to talk to people. Then they get a notification about it and otherwise they generally don't know you're talking to them. Anyway, welcome to the Escapist. GL, HF. :)

There's a dogfight game (air combat) for the Wii named Blazing Angels set in the second world war. One of the allies is shot down and then you take revenge with 3 planes versus 10, finishing that feels quite good.

11 kill streak with no hp left in Bad Company 2
This was in a urban map on hardcore(decreased hp with no regeneration,no crosshair/minimap/hud in general),I forgot the name.The one with the train tracks and busted boats in a dry dock to any who have the game.

I picked my trusty M1 thompson with an engineer kit,consisting of a repair tool,pistol,smg and a rocket launcher(emptied due to a severe case of HOLY SHIT TANK!).
As soon as I cross path with my first opponent on foot,I lose alot of my hp,but kill him.I go around looking for a medic and kill two more guys on a roof.My search for a medic continues as I cross half the map,killing couple guys during which my screen appears to be covered with thick strawberry jam.
After the 11th kill,having my ammo refilled 3 times and having repaired a vehicle,I FINALLY find a medic who proceded to heal me.
Feeling like a Titan,I let out a "It's just a flesh wound,my brass balls deflected most of it" in the team chat.


I then found my Achille's heel:the face.Even Titans can't do anything to stop a 12 year old sniper,hiding in some far fetched place that only has a 5 degree view angle on the battlefield,with a .50 cal rifle,magnum bullets and a big ass scope.
