Three times I'd like to mention, two in Halo. First time: Halo 3 Beta, since it's the shortest story. I was on Valhalla, threw a trip mine down where the mancannon dropped people off, and went to shoot people. I heard the mancannon go off and I turned to look. Just as I turn, a warthog barrels around a corner and starts coming towards me. The guy from the mancannon lands on the trip mine, the trip mine goes off, the fully loaded warthog blows up, and I get four kills.
Second is Halo 2. I was playing in that massive cave level (Red vs Blue uses it as the area under Blood Gulch), we were playing capture the flag. I'm not sure how this happened, but I was driving, the enemy flag was in the passenger seat, and a wraith was chasing us down. About halfway through the map we get glanced by the wraith's volley, and it shoots us forward a bit. We hit a rock outcrop, and suddenly we're driving on two wheels. This is the last flag, I'm trying really bloody hard to keep the thing under control. We went across half the map on two wheels before I ram the top (now side) of the warthog into the entrance. I get out and run towards the interior, flag guy pauses and gets blown up. I grab the flag and haul ass to the drop point, we win, yay me!
The last was in Bad Company 2. I was in a building on squad deathmatch, in that big desert town on a coast, there's a construction sight... anyways. I'm sniping, because blowing shit up had gotten boring. I go out the window and see a guy looking directly at me, at the same angle as I am and everything. I fire as he shoots an RPG. He falls dead as I watch for a second as the RPG comes at me. I take a step back and hit a wall and think "Oh fuck, that's going to come through that window". I heard glass shatter and lowered the controller to wait to spawn. But I didn't die. I turn and see another fucking window right beside me, the rocket had gone through both windows and missed me entirely.
Beyond that it's just little thing. Noticing the EMP from MW2 looked like the explosion at the end of V1 of Heroes made me geek out a little, and the nuke was amazing.
