Alright, I made an account specifically to respond to this thread. With all the CS and CoD:4 and whatnot, I have to throw in some of my personal favs.
Clive Barker's Undying.
First one: When fighting the sister in the underground area with the dining room table and what have you, she chased me from one side of the room to the other and, as my health was dropping, I climbed the raised area nearby and jumped to the table just as she flew up after me. Hitting the table, I pivoted and swung the scythe with everything I had, landing the final blow as she flew at me.
Second: Final boss. I was out of every kind of ammo, literally. Used magic or something, I don't really remember what, to get up and into the creature's mouth to slice it with the scythe. (I have no idea if that's possibly what you were supposed to do, but that moment when I had something like 60% health and no ammo, I literally just kind of girded my loins, so to speak, and jumped in. Surprised the hell out of me when he died. =P)
Dark Forces, yes, Dark Forces.
I will never forget getting dumped into the pit with the Kyrat Dragon and running around in an attempt to find a way out, only to get frustrated and end up turning around and beating the thing to death with my fist.
Mechwarrior 2 Mercenaries.
Entered the arena deathmatch thingie (some big mission where you go up against other mechs in several different arenas back to back, like gladiatorial combat. Prize was several million credits.) First battle, my mech got smacked around, but miraculously came out on top, just barely. At this time, I was unaware that you could repair mechs between these events, so I ended up slogging through the rest of the competition, and winning, using only a single flamer that was mounted in my mech's head region. Hoo boy.
