    Have you ever had this feeling, its a great feeling. You shiver down your spine with pleasure. My most recent happened in Mirror's Edge. This intro scene. I would advise you to watch it in 1080p on your Xbox with the demo and 5.1 sound, but this youtube video should be enough.

    How about you?

    First: Battletoads: Double Dragon, I loved the two player and you could play at the same time instead of taking turns like most of the Nintendo games were back then.

    Next: Parappa the Rapper, this was my first music oriented game and I loved the paper-like graphics.

    Most Recent: Halo 3, I've gotten around 5 games since September 25th 2007 and yet I keep coming back to this addiction. Forge need I say more.

    Future: I believe Resident Evil 5 will have me playing every hour just like Battletoads: Double Dragon, Parappa the Rapper, and Halo 3.

    Zelda OoT

    Earthbound did also. The last boss is the creepiest thing, something no other 2D (or 3D) game could ever convey. I don't think I've ever felt the same way in any other game.

    edi* gaming forum?

    Majora's Mask gave me a feeling like no other game has. Everything about it was just perfect. Now I sound like I'm talking about a woman. lmao

    Oh, Donkey Kong 64 was also near and dear to my heart. :)

    My first was probable Zelda: OoT, Majora's mask was also like that. Next would be all the halos, I felt empty after beating them. I even cried at the end of halo 3, I guess sticking with the cheif for so long made it like losing a good friend. Next (or sorta intertwined) was Morrowind and Oblivion. Every time I hear that theme song, shivers run down my spine; and I get the empowering feeling that I really do get to decide the fate of that world. The next one to do it for me was Mass effect, I just felt like I was really part of some massive galatic civilization, and the was the next time I cried at the end of a game. The most recent is Fallout 3, I absolutle loved the whole ending, and yes, I cried.

    I'm a cryer, I know...

    Easily my earliest games such as Super Mario World or Sonic The Hedghog.
    Me and my older bro loved playing those games. He was always Sonic....and Mario. Those were what got me into playing videogames.

    But yea, twas simpler times.

    The Zelda series including gameboy, n64, and gamecube. Those were beast though one of my favorite games was KOTOR because it was one of the greatest games out there. Played it like 13 times in different ways.

    My lawyers will not allow me to speak at this time. We can confirm however that Altair did, in fact, touch me inappropriately.

    Does that mean owning you repeatedly in a CoD2 game after you had said "suck it dry" in a previous match?

    If so I'm a multiple offender as well.

    The first game I've ever really gotten into was the Gears of War 2 campaign. It was crazy awesome.

    If you pause it at 2:52 you can see through the wall..?

    Zelda OoT is my number one game. Mainly because that, and mario was the only thing i had when i was growing up with the N64.

    The game that really sent shivers down my spine throughout the whole series was Half Life 2. If you have not played any of the episodes, I suggest you do so. It's so intense!

    Another game that gave me a similar feeling was BioShock. It was like an M. Night Shymalan movie, but like 10x better.

    I don't think some of you understand what I am saying. I'm talking about something that caused you to think how beautiful this rendered bit of data was, an involuntary feeling of the body, but oh well.

    Oh and at the very last fight in Assassin's Creed my adrenaline kicked in for some reason. My heart was pounding and it really scared me...

    Ratchet and Clank series. Endless playing time on the PS2 with my best friend Nick. We had such good times with that game...

    Frankly, i don't let anyone touch me.. Freak.

    But seriously it would have to be Final Fantasy 7. Just the way it played and the storyline, (which was by the way quite magnificent), was miraculous to me at the time because i was only like.. ten or some ****. In other words, best game that likes to touch me in certain areas.

    ;)
