I was playing the final boss on Sonic Adventure 2 (Battle) for the very first time. It honestly took me years to beat this game, I was very young then. Sonic is my favorite video game character by the way.
Hidden/Spoiler:
This is for those that have played/seen the final boss and ending. After suffering through the Biolizard, and nearly beating my brother up. We were both on the edge of our seats, as the second to last cutscene played. When we started fighting as the greatest video game rock song ever composed played, I was doing great, wasn't touched.
But as the fight progressed the "Final Hazard" became tougher, with his dual lazers and water baloon bombs. The colony was turning red as it entered earths atmosphere, I could hardly get close to the Biolizard. I was on the last of my rings and the clock was winding down, less than a minute. I was down to the final hit, I knew it was now or never. So I darted forward as shadow, skillfully dodging everything he threw at me. And as the music swelled I shot forward at a breakneck speed, and hit the sweet spot.
And as the biolizard cried in a roar of agony, "Live and Learn" chimed in perfectly. It still rings in my mind today, I can see just like it was yesterday. Johnny's voice echoed through the room, "You may never, find your, waaaaaay!" It set everything up perfectly for the final cuscene, and solidified Sonic the Hedgehog as my favorite hero of all time...

I was just playing the Men of War demo, and..

I accidentally drowned my tank by not looking where I was going in Direct Control Mode, and the enemy still had two tanks. After sitting there for 40 minutes pondering what do to, I sent an SMG Infantry around their flank, behind the two tanks. I had him throw two anti-tank grenades, then climb into a still-operational enemy tank. I pulled him back to where another SMG Infantry could cover him while he made repairs to the tank. When the repairs were done, I sent the second SMG Infantry inside the tank, then proceeded to shred the opposition.

Even better, I was recording with Fraps.

On Halo Trial's Multiplayer (Blood Gulch), I was outside one of the bases fighting a guy on top. He was throwing grenades, I was using the pistol on him. Finally, I got his shields down, and he began moving towards the teleporter. I couldn't get a shot at him, so I began circling around the base. I held the trigger on the pistol, and ended up (accidentally) getting the kill when one of my blind shots went under one of the walls on the sides of the base's top floor to hit him in the leg.

The other day, Nullcommando and I were playing Halo 3 on Live. It was just him and I. I had no idea where he was, and I had an assault rifle and a bubble shield. He had a rocket launcher. So I was standing in the middle of the room we were in, and I realize I have no cover and deploy the bubble shield. Right when I hit "X" Null jumps at me and fires the rocket launcher, but the bubble shield was already up, and he fired it as he was passing through, and the rocket hit the shield, killing him.

I think I must kill subconsciously in that game, the other most epic thing that ever happened to me was an accident, too, lol.

Played Warcraft Orcs and Humans skirmish mode as orcs (my favorite) at my old PC (the one for old games of course :P ).
4 Grunts 6 spearthrowers and 2 riders were defending my base while 4 warlocks were wating till their mana was full. Once it was so far the whole enemy base and the army protecting it was destroyed in no time by 4 daemons (look like the doomguards from warcraft 3 for those unfamiliar with the first game). Now I'll start the campaign :)

My friend was having trouble on Duke Nukem 3D, so he went to me for some help because he knows I'm pro.

So I start out and see that the room is a square with one lump in the middle. On the other side of the lump there is a giant alien thing. I learn the controls, then crouch behind my side of the lump and lob every single pipe bomb. Then I peep over the lump and see it alive. I get out the RPG and shoot it once. It dies. I was all excited because I watched my friend fail at beating this thing for several study halls.
