What has been your Proudest moment in Gaming?

[brunothepig]

Before I issue any official challenge, what kind of glomping are we talking about here?
Full on attachment, or (I hesitate to say restrained, as it's kind of an oxymoron) lesser glomping?

We're talking arms wrapped around.

And using those self same arms to play Half Life? Also, have you started before we decided on the rules? Be honest...

I've already unlocked about 14 achievements =D

When I put down my controller, stopped messing with my mouse, and realized that games shouldn't dictate my life or what goes on in it. It should be the other way around.

Sounds to me like you just unlocked this:

Holy fuck, you can go outside?
How do you turn on no clip?!

You can't really no-clip, but the immersion is Amazing.

 

[Ignatz_Zwakh]

Beating hard time-attack in Shadow of the Colossus. I literally threw both my arms up and roared. XD

 

[Serenegoose]

Sounds like EVE online...

Still, the graphics are great, I've heard it's f2p and has good speech recognition and procedural generation so I might check it out. Sounds pretty innovative!

The microtransactions are a *****. Total price gouging. And yeah, the graphics are good, but it knows its limits. You won't be seeing explosions or much, you know?

 

[SeriousSquirrel]

Oh, and the first time I beat my Dad at Madden. That was an amazing feeling, and I have since gotten to the point that I win roughly 6 of every 10 games we play.

Hahaha. You starting from Half Life 2 again? I only have 24 of them total... Should try for that one for playing through zombie chapter with just the grav gun. It sounds fun.
Check the stats for how many people earn those achievements. It's ridiculous how few have earned even the easiest one.

I did, and it was BRRRIGHTTT!

On the other hand the lighting is so realistic once you get used to it - and the detail on the shadows is amazing.

I already did the gravity-gun one...

IT WAS TERRIFYING!

I ran out of objects to fling during one of the fast-zombie raids and I wound up having to run around screaming for about fourty seconds while the elevator came up to get me!

 

[TheVaultHunter]

I'm gon' lay some cheeezzzzz on this thread.

I was about 8 years old, playing a generic Sonic game on the Sega Megadrive with my dad. We sucked, and we kept dying all the time, but through persistence and sheer luck we managed to finish the entire game, and that was the first moment of gaming which made me feel like pure win.

The only other time I felt that as a kid was playing Metal Gear Solid on the PS1. It was Christmas day when I bossed that badass Metal Gear.

Killing a super-mutant-behemoth with a shishkebab in my boxers on Fallout 3 was pretty epic aswell. For different reasons...

 

[QXR2]

The most awesome thing I have done was not even during a game it was randomly guessing the Starcraft 1 Cd key on my first try after seeing a friend try about 15 times.

 

[burningdragoon]

You know I was trying to think of something for this, and not coming up with anything. There are plenty of times where it felt awesome to do the things I've done, but nothing so amazing to me. (also a lot of these things said are beyond the scope of my abilities)

And then it hit me...

I met my best friend by randomly joining him in a game of Super Smash Bros Melee in our dorm.

 

[Blank Verse]

I hit rank 1 in 2vs2 and 3vs3 of World of Warcraft's season 2 arena.

 

[The Hero Killer]

Beating Call of Duty: World at War, Modern Warfare 1, and 2 all on veteran. Especially getting the Mile High Club achievement.

Honorable mention also goes to getting Yeager's secret mission on Tales of Vesperia.

Haha. I believe that's the point where I pulled out a shotgun lol. Yeah, I think I'll do that again this weekend.

Good news! I'm down to the last two achievements =D NEARLY THERE

Defeating a game without any save points is pretty much the definition of Victory.

I still haven't gotten that Mile-High Club achievement - that thing is Nuts.

Pah! So it's like the sims, with microtransactions and less sex?
Who'd want to play that?!
