Favorite Video Game Explosion

[Grabbin Keelz]

Short and simple, what was your favorite explosion in a video game?

Here's mine right here.

 

[Erttheking]

I always preferred the destroying of the Enclave mobile carrier in Fallout 3

 

[Soviet Heavy]

The orbital bombardment explosions from Dawn of War 1 and 2

Fear the orbital lance strike!

Mine is from a relatively recent game, towards the end: Mass Effect 2. (Possible spoilers here): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxNfaZPrxDs

 

[Space Spoons]

The explosive Blitzball at the end of Blitz Ace, Tidus' ultimate Limit Break in Final Fantasy X.
It's incredibly satisfying.

 

[Sniper Team 4]

Play Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. Turn on the Boom! Skull, set it on Legendary, and run the Library level. Wow. Just...wow.

 

[Popeman]

Blowing up the tower in Resistance: fall of man. Or the nuke form Infamous 2.

 

[Tupolev]

Needler explosions from the original Halo may not be the biggest or most plot-driving explosions ever, but wow.

Especially when combined with the games' loading quirks:
(This guy made a second video [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkKNc8_yYWg] of this stuff)

 

[ChupathingyX]

Well there's the first time I ever used the bunker buster air strike in Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction...good times, I remember that moment almost perfectly.

Plus these;

Well damn, isn't that scary. I was about to say mine was from Star Fox 64, and yet your fav explosion is from the same game XD I definitely say my fav explosion if when you destroy the boss from Area 6 in SF64 :3 I just love it!

Blowing up the tower in Resistance: fall of man. Or the nuke form Infamous 2.

FUCK! dude! fucking spoiler! i havent played that game yet.

 

[endtherapture]

Any explosion in Crysis 2.

So so pretty.

 

[Popeman]

Blowing up the tower in Resistance: fall of man. Or the nuke form Infamous 2.

FUCK! dude! fucking spoiler! i havent played that game yet.

I didn't relay think about that sorry. I thought it was obvious form the start that would happen at some point. Sorry.

 

[Zipa]

Any explosion in battlefield 3 (pc on ultra ) it looks just amazing . It truy shows how far behind consoles of thIs generation have fallen.

 

[DanielBrown]

Setting off the nuke in Megaton in Fallout 3 is always pretty damn impressive.

That might also be my favorite. The music just makes it sound so awesome.

But there's also this one(from the ME3 E3 demo), not really cause of the explosion itself, but more because the reaper can just literally walk it off: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjERWa9lOLM#t=2m30s

Creeper explosion in minecraft obviously, its the one thing you dread more than anything else and ofcourse if you escape then its happy days.
