Funkmon top 5 game moments that I can remember right now

• The Last Array
  
  I LOVE The Last Array. The big dish opening up, all the fallen and hive attacking, the wizards and knights coming at you...it's an assault unlike anything you had seen in that game until then. Totally wild, super hard at the time, and tackling it with my buddies the first time I played through? Changed my life. Literally a life changing moment. That is when I knew I loved Destiny.
  
  
  
  
• The Maw run
  
  SPOILERS, I KNOW WE DON'T LIKE SPOILERS HERE
  
  Echo 419 going up in a blaze (more like Echo 420, amirite?) gave me a huge oh shit moment and I didn't know what would happen. Then the Rex jump did the same.
  
  
  
  Oh, no, I spoiled it.
  
  
• Would You Kindly?
  
  I have never been really blindsided by video game twists, but Bioshock absolutely floored me. It may have changed my entire outlook on games.
  
  
  
  
• The Giraffes in The Last of Us
  
  Not really sure why seeing a bunch of giraffes got to me, but it did.
  
  
  
  
• Reuniting Chloe and Max
  
  In Life Is Strange, you play Max, who returns home after years away, when she didn't talk to her BFF at home. No real story why. You reunite with her, and it culminates in a dance party in her room, broken up by a stepdad who smells weed.
  
  I'm pretty sure most of us have had a similar experience to that.
  
  Reminds me of coming back from Luxembourg, Arizona, and Florida after years away, then visiting my friend in her basement where she'd have to blow her weed smoke in a wad of toilet paper to keep her mom from noticing while jamming out to Bright Eyes. God what an awful band. I think we were caught about 1/3rd of the time we did that.
  
  Anyway, that scene made Chloe and Max me and my friend circa 2010. Therefore, the scene made me more emotionally invested in Life is Strange than any other game I've ever played. Which is dumb because it's a dumb game.
