Poll: Your "OMFG" moments in gaming

[Meta 99]

Halo 2, the final boss, TATURUS I think: He's sopposed to take almost 10 min., but I got lucky with a perfect stick/assasination before the infinite shields went up. My buddy actually fell over because I killed him so fast on the first time, and his best was over 4 min, wre mine was only 4 sec.

MW2 on skidrow, my friend and i were having a contest that night to see who could get more throwing knife kills, i went 17 and 7 with 13 by throwing knife

EDIT: also any time i wipe out an entire team with a single javelin missile, god that's a great feeling

In Aliens Vs Predator (the new one)I was playing as the predator and got a 14 kill streak. I was just about to win the match until the host left. ;_;

 

[Rogue 9]

Well I didn't manage to win the tournament, but a couple of years ago at my city's anime and gaming convention, I managed to double-perfect someone in the third round of the Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 tournament. My friends were suitably impressed

In team fortress 2, i was a pyro and 5 soldiers shot at me with the Missile launcher, I deflected them all in one hit.

I once held my team together during an epic defense of Arica Harbor in Bad Company 2. I was in a T-90 tank for a while and I managed to find a few great spots, and I managed to fight back some big enemy assaults, but eventually they destroyed my tank and our team was pushed back to the last M-Com station in the last area, and we managed to hold that for around 10 minutes to win the game.

Throwing knife/Riot shield fight with a riend of mine on XBL. We spent, what twenty minutes trying to flank eachother and we both had only one life? Yeah, that's it. He took my knife to the face. >

Imagine this: You are playing Starcraft, you are playing Protoss, you've been pushed back by leapfrogging units of Terran siege tanks but have managed to stop them at the gates to your main base. You got everything upgraded to throw out tons of troops in seconds if need be to reinforce or break out. Only the unit cap keeping it form being a wave, the same as the other guy. You're hoping he throws enough tanks at your defences that you can break out on the weakend numbers which is sure to happen soon when suddenly the game announces:

Nuclear launch detected.....
Nuclear launch detected.....
Nuclear launch detected.....
Nuclear launch detected.....
Nuclear launch detected.....
Nuclear launch detected.....

What? Six nukes incoming? But the Ghosts can't get close enough to the defenses to blow them apart! Then you see the little near invisible flashing red dots all over the back portions of your base!

Turns out the open space you were depending on to keep most units out wasn't covered and the terrans landed a dropship full of ghosts back where your troops couldn't see them. Then tanks were just penning you in until the nukes hit. Then they storm forward as the plan all comes apart....


I caused that OMFG moment to a friend and I still think it had to be one of the great moments in gaming for me since he tended to beat me most times.

It was also a very long game, me taking resource site after resource site, him fighting the whole way. If he had thought to defend the edges of his base against air attack where the open spaces stopped my tanks we might have been going at it for hours.

cs source in a gun game where you have to get 2 kills for each gun advancement and you lvl all the way up to the awp and then back down to your glock so you get your final kill with the glock. got to the glock and the other team was way behind, guy shot me with an awp i respawned and got the fucker from across the map with my GLOCK!!! and ya he was stil on the awp.. best moment ever.

first time playing COD MW2 with my brother just for fun. i shot him out of the air with a missle launcher as he jumped down on me. i was nothing short of epic lol. he ultimately won coz i suck at FPS tho... lol

 

[Gwarr]

On BFBC2( this is the most recent ) . You know the map where you start of on parachutes as offense? I was playing assault , threw a noob tube random and hit a double kill . I bet the 2 unlucky dudes hate me to this day )

 

[Rewold]

On LANs playing cod5 I got 30 - 2 stats while my friends had under 10 kills each. I think it was TDM Battery on HC. Was using shotgun for fun.

 

[Miffmoff]

Bad Company 2; a very rare 4v4 regular Gold Rush, completely took over the game with an M14 with magnum ammo and a very large stack of bullets on Nelson Bay. Caused me to have a passionate relationship with that rifle, if it doesn't get pulled out pretty much ever game now something is wrong or I'm sniping

 

[Miffmoff]

Wait, got another one. Managed to snipe someone whilst parachuting into Port Valdez, very satifying headshot.

 

[Free Thinker]

Unreal Tournament 3 on the bridge map, CTF. I explained to my teammates the plan. I'd pilot the Raptor, someone would hop on the hoverboard and tether onto the vehicle. I'd drop him off at the enemy base, he'd grab the flag and I'd pick him up and drop him off at out base to cap. The other had no idea what was going on.

 

[Ericb]

I defeated the the last boss of the Ninja Gaiden 2 only with Ryu's sword, his shadows and a lot of dodging.

That was completely unexpected. My throat almost burst with the howl of glorious victory.

Was playing Carnivores on PC (a dinosaur hunting game). Just unlock T-Rex and went on a hunt. Didn't mind checking what the kill spot was. I figured it would be the head or some part of. I'm on a hill, the T-Rex is about 300 yds in front of me. It starts sniffing the air when I take aim with my sniper and fire, instant kill. Found out later the only spot to hit a T-Rex for a kill was the eye. Felt like the luckiest bastard on earth.
