Default Games that made you go 'woah!'

So which games left you in awe?

Just had a moment with CoD4 in the helicopter with the USMC when the whole city blows up and the shock wave rushes towards you.

Ohh man hell yeah that would be a good woah moment for me as well. Well mine was after effects of that incident. I was in shock of what happened and how it was carried out when you walked and then finally fell. That sent chills up my spine.

Besides that... Final Fantasy 7 when Aris gets killed. I was only 13 or 14 and my mouth dropped when he stuck her with that masamune.

Default Metal Gear Solid: Sons of Liberty PS2

Prolly when towards the end of the single-player game. After infiltrating enemy HQ, you assasinate the terrorist cell's leader and all hell breaks loose. Friggin awesome. Lots of explosions and action galore. I had to say -Whoa!

Call of Duty 4 singleplayer.

Everything apart from that god awful lorry chase scene at the end. Reminded me of bloody time crisis or Condition Zero.

But, apart from that, it was a damn good story and game.

The music really added to the "wow" effect.
