What game has given you the biggest "My mind is blown" moment? You know the type that gives you tingles down your spine and makes you think, "holy shit... what the... I don't even... that. was. awesome :eek:"
For me it was in GTA San Andreas when I first jumped into a plane and flew to the desert area where there was a huge satellite dish and dam. It was the first time I had ever seen a game of that size and scale. These days its pretty common though
How about you guys?

When I was a kid, Diablo struck me cause that dead guy in front of the church said "That bastard led us into a trap!" and back then I thought 'bastard' was a huge swear word, so I went around telling people that there's swear words in games
Also, the first time I played, I was about 30 minutes into the game when a plane crashed next to me. That was fucking creepy.
Best moment I've ever had playing a video game.
When I thought I had beaten Ganondorf in Ocarina of Time, and then he grew into that big monster (Ganon).
Another was when me and a friend discovered this glitch in Jak II where you do some certain things to get over a boundary (Which was a wall in the city). Then you fall into this area with water, where you can either keep swimming underground, or if you swim over the "edge" you fall and die. I guess it was so mind-blowing because we thought nobody else knew about it, and it's possible that is true.
I guess I really haven't had a moment like that since I was younger, I'm just not really that impressed by things in games anymore.
As badass as the concept was, I absolutely loathed the game after trying to go for most of the achievements. The AI is just nuts. Hard Mode isn't even fair.
This. I used to play GTA 2 all the time and when I saw Grand theft auto with 3d graphics and all that it was crazy. Now im just thinking about how fail GTA4 really was compared to games like Vice city and San Andreas.
I remember getting that a lot too! Pity GTA IV went backwards in terms of scale and detail. Hopefully the next will be like an upgraded San Andreas!
What I'm really waiting to see is if someone does an open world type game where there are no boundaries. A world where you can travel right around the world and come back to where you started. Full planets, like they did with the small planets in the Ratchet and Clank games but x100
It's called Real Life
Give it ten years, and that'll be the norm.
Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Exiting the sewer in Oblivion is the only mind blowing moment I can think of right now. I think it was only because of how long I was waiting for that game though.
Boss size in Shadow of the Colousus
Graphics @ highest on Crysis
So true dude.
I also had that uneasiness of like "Holy shit, what do I do now?"
But for real I would say at the end of the new splinter cell and you are ordered to kill your friend on the plane. And at the end of modern warfare two when you get stabbed in the chest and pull it out and throw it at sheapred. I was like what the fuck.
Also, playing BF:BC2 on max graphic settings gave me an orgasm.
Because the token black guys die first in everything except horror movies. There always somewhere in the middle there.
Amazing game.
