Samus's outrage is perfectly understandable and justified too. Not only is she getting curbstomped by an enemy that's borderline unfair, but that same enemy confessed to being a source of MANY of her current problems. He's the reason the Chozo disappeared, he's the reason the X have been set free again, and he even usurped the one companion she had to manipulate her into becoming his living weapon...all for more power that he didn't even need.
Samus went from "get the job done" to "THIS ASSHOLE CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO LIVE" and it is FULLY deserved.
Oh yeah, never mind the fact Darth Warbler's her surrogate father by proxy as donor of the genetic material that made Samus a Human/Chozo hybrid, btw. So many thoughts and emotions racing through her mind at Warp Factor 9. Put ALL together, and is it any wonder why Space Female Rambo went absolutely berserk? O.O
The fight against Raven Beak is easily one of Metroid’s best bosses in the series.
An odd quirk to the boss is that it is seemingly the only boss who isn't buffed in Hard Mode. I found him oddly easy in my Hard Mode playthough, because I already beat him twice before in normal mode, and he didn't do any extra damage or have more health. He was literally exactly the same.
I consider him the best final boss in the series, and probably the best boss in general too. He's my second favorite final boss ever right behind TotK Ganondorf.
@@TheZeroNeonix Speaks volumes, doesn't it? That Mercury Steam 100% COULD have made him harder, yet knew he was already hard enough. :O
He's actually my favourite boss, he kicked my ass quite a few times and it was SO FUN!!!
No. 1: woman literally too angry to die.
I really hope the Metroid Suit returns in Metroid 6. We can't have unlimited access to it, of course, because that would be overpowered, but it would be nice to see it in some form.
Is she immortal? No she just refuses to die.
To give more context to that scene in Metroid Dread, that moment with Raven Beak had a bit of subtle build up before that. So in the previous game, Metroid Fusion, Samus was infected with a deadly parasite. In order to save her life, scientists surgically removed the outer layers of her bio-suit so they could inject Samus with Metroid cells. This gave herself and her suit properties of the Metroid. At first, this comes down to a weakness to ice and her ability to absorb the X parasites and steal their powers. Additionally, because her suit's outer layers were removed, she's no longer able to tank hits like before.
Now, in Dread, Raven Beak wants that Metroid DNA, so he reprograms these EMMI robots to steal Samus' blood. But Raven Beak sees potential in her, and decides to test her abilities instead and attempt to recruit her to his side. Samus' bio-suit slowly regenerates its outer layers over the course of the game, and she finds herself with a new instinct she doesn't understand. Near the end of the game, she gives in to this instinct, grabs an EMMI with her left hand, and absorbs its energy akin to what a Metroid can do. She tries to do the same to Raven Beak, but he counters and starts choking her out. This is when her Metroid DNA fully kicks in, and her suit turns green and insect-like, absorbing energy not just from Raven Beak, but from his whole floating facility. Samus has evolved into an invincible Metroid, with impenetrable armor and a beam attack that disintegrates enemies with ease. As a fan who had to wait so freaking long for this sequel, it was a perfect moment to go out on.
I'm just imagining what they'll do with this in the next game.
@jameslawrenson1208 - Same. They can't just give her unlimited access to the Metroid suit, because that would just make her way too powerful. Maybe it could be a temporary powerup during certain events. Maybe her Metroid DNA begins affecting her mind, so she has to actively resist the urge of that power, or else risk becoming a mindless killing machine.
@jameslawrenson1208 - Imagine if Metroid Suit Samus turned out to be the final boss of the next game, and we had to take control of somebody else. It would be a very ballsy move, especially if Samus dies in the end, but it would be pretty crazy if they went that route. Maybe they could have one more game where we're control of Samus, but she loses control in the end and becomes a huge threat, wiping out entire colonies as she continues to mutate. So in the next game, we take over a new hunter, guided by Adam, with the goal of defeating Samus. Maybe destroying her suit would be enough to pacify her. Maybe not.
Since Dread is supposed to be the end of the "Metroid saga," and the start for something new, it would help to differentiate the series going forward if we got a new hero.
There are hints on how the next game can top it. 1st off... she cannot fully control the metroid DNA and suit. As shown when she wanted to use the ship and Adam goes: "DONT YOU WILL DRAIN THE SHIP DRY!"
Then of course or chozo buddy X shows up and cures her of it. (Why and how.. mystery.. was it the X? Can the X be good if the host was good? Can quiet robe control X in death?)
Then she leaves the planet.. this means.. the next game might have a "Metroid gauge" similiar to Metroid Prime 3 had the Phazon gauge. You know? Hyper Mode going crazy and you gotta empty it or else it takes you over? In this case... I can see a next game going with Samus having to control herself to not lose control of her Metroid side as it might cause more damage then good.
And then eventually having to control her Metroid side or having to let it go for the sake of the universe... eitherway.. the next game has setup that the Metroid side of Samus is both a blessing and a curse. And that's where they will follow up.
And ironincally enough. This wouldn't be the 1st time we have a "Samus Metroid" in the universe... since as I said with Prime 3... we had it before and we know WHAT DEVASTATION IT CAN CAUSE! An Army of Sa-X's? Nothing compared to the threat of Dark Samus (Metroid Prime). So let's imagine Samus having to keep that under control.
Her scream legit made me put my controller down and cover my mouth in awe.
Truly excellent choice for #1.
Cynthia’s theme playing when you fight Volo in PLA is up there - and it is quickly overshadowed when Giratina comes out. Which is overshadowed again when Giratina revives itself
My god, I was having my Cynthia ptsd moment when Volo’s battle theme started playing (it was the piano), Giratina showing up was intimidating (Platinum jumpscare flashed in my mind), and THEN Giratina having a PHASE 2 really scared the crap out of me!
Call an ambulance...but not for Giratina.
I'm not sure if it counts as "go hard", but I was really hyped in dragon quest 11 when the 8th party member joined ... because I had no clue this was going to happen. The box art, the opening, the marketing and so on, everything was just showing the first 7 playable characters and they all joined way before the 8th. So I was really surprised that THAT guy suddenly wanted to fuck around with us.
Chapters of the Chosen, the remake of Dragon Quest IV, had something similar for a post game. Blew my mind when we realized we could now play AS the BBEG! AND that he can equip cursed items without issue!
Of course...nowadays he's the DQ version of a Pokémon trainer due to being cursed by his father, but hey...
@@gamemasteranthony2756 it would've been okay of all of that stuff happened before DQ 4, but then the DQ 4 guys showed up and stuff ... that story was weird af.
For me it was when is revealed what that floating thing in the sky is, after “finishing” the game.
>"Unbelievable peak story telling"
> Shows Baten Kaitos on screen
RabbidLuigi is truly cultured.
I'm glad Wind Waker is getting the love it deserves. Because that final battle goes as hard as it can go on the GameCube.
Right?? I know it wasn't technically the final fight (more the penultimate fight), but the cutscene in the room with the big water puddle, and Ganondorf shouting at us with huge text and a jump scare sound, "Your gods destroyed you!" was a wild moment to experience fresh as an 8 year old
The backdrop for the Ganon fight in wind waker is honestly one of the best backdrops for any boss in gaming history. There are better, sure, but that doesn’t change how godly it is. And the final blow is the cherry on top of
More like the sword on top 🗡️🧢
Samus digging into Raven Beak's grill with her UNARMED hand had me in 40 pieces all at once
That thumbnail is definitely the best one rabbidluigi has made in a while lmao
One for me is the finale of Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Stretching himself around a big rig and driving up the side of buildings pulled out of the ground and jammed together by Chaos Elfilis, before pulling off an insane jump and using Elfilin's latent power to rend Elfilis to dust... HAL went hard on that.
My favorite remains the Gigga Drill Break from Planet Robobot
You got it mixed up. Chaos Elfilis is its later form in The Ultimate Cup Z after Soul Forgo absorbed Morpho Knight's power. Fecto Elfilis is the form that you ram with a truck.
Other than that, I couldn't agree more. Now I'm wondering how HAL are going to top a moment as crazy or bombastic as that.
@@elijahfoltz3755 True, my mistake.
Moments like this are what I call an "Oh, yeah" moment. And I don't mean Kool-Aid Man "Oh, yeah," I'm talking Rocket Raccoon "Oh, yeah;" that moment where you know that something awesome is about to happen, and then it does, and it... is... glorious.
Since its return every Kirby Final Boss has a moment that would easily fit in this list:
- RtDL: Kirby cutting Magolor in half.
- TD: Kirby pulls a Deadpool and uses Sectonia's HP bar as ammo for his final attack.
- PR: Kirby pulls a Giga Doriru Bureika.
- SA: Kirby pulls a Kame Hame Ha.
- FL: Truck-Kirby.
Fuck Microsoft for closing Tango Gameworks the people who did Hi-Fi Rush.
Honestly the best part for the wind waker ganondorf fight is the build up to that final blow. As the fight progresses Ganondorf keeps adapting to the fight and learns how to counter your moves until he's blocking or avoiding your entire repitore of attacks.
So clearly the only option is to adapt yourself and pull something new out of link's cap.
Samus has so many excellent moments in Dread, I just love it.
It was such a cool game to be my first metroid game.
Raven beak, a villian who has a personality that is frightening similar to ridley with the only difference being that raven beak has ambitions to rule the galaxy while ridley slaughters others just for fun.
You Will Know Our Names is amazing but I suggest Those Who Stand Against Our Path from XC2. The first 45 seconds are a musical warning siren and if you survive those, it turns into a triumphant battle theme. Unmatched imo
Also any appreciation for Wind Waker, Metroid Dread and Xenoblade will be a guaranteed thumbs up from me!
Musical warning sirens are a particularly loved trope of mine.
Wind Waker Link's final hit is a masterpiece. Using the same parry move we've used all game, jumping several feet into the air, the war cry as he plunges the sword into Ganon's Head??? It's just so RAW.
It's about time somebody called out how BRUTAL that Wind Waker finisher is. B)
Very recent example, but the entire final battle of Tekken 8 goes extremely hard from start to finish, to the point where you don’t even mind that it’s eight straight phases of fighting the same guy. The stage atmosphere, the music cues, the insane cutscene spectacle, even the changes in the gameplay all come together to make an absolutely jaw-dropping final battle, something fighting games don’t usually do.
Little sad to see no Doom entries on this list, but at the same time....
It goes so hard I'm sure you're supposed to see a doctor if you go that hard that long
Woody roasting the hell out of Xehanort is a top pick for me
Samus rocked my Universe with that moment and I'm still not over it to this day
A good honorable mention for Music entries that go hard: Proof of a Hero from Monster Hunter. When that starts playing during a Final Boss Monster, Shit's about to go *_hard_*
I don't think I've seen anything as hard as the first time using the Ghost Stance in Ghost of Tsushima. What a perfect introduction to the game's best mechanic
Ah yes, psychological warfare
fighting Gabriel in Ultrakill goes hard, then again most of Ultrakill goes hard
"Behold... the power of an angel!"
I was hoping to see someone else mention Ultrakill. That game is the first one that crossed my mind when I saw the title of the video.
Can't forget the moment when in Final Fantasy VI, when facing off against the ghost train, one of your characters can piledrive it.
Sabin, seeing him Suplex the shit out of that train is equal parts satisfying and hilarious
I would see that and raise you *all* of Dancing Mad/the Final Battle. The remake making the song even more operatic fits perfectly.
Every time in Persona 5/Persona 5 Royale you take on the Palace Ruler, when you decide to take the scenic route through the Palace instead of just fast traveling with the Safe Rooms, so Life Will Change/I Believe plays throughout
not often in a boss battle that YOU get a phase 2
One moment that stands out as going hard for me is the Ashtray in Control. I don’t want to spoil it for those who haven’t played it yet, but if you know; you know.
One of my favorite video game moments that goes hard that I feel is underrated is Mareg's death in Grandia 2. He chose to stay behind to protect everyone knowing it was a losing battle. And this is after the death of another character too so it just hits u like a freight train imo.
As a Xenoblade nerd, seeing it in one of your vids felt great.
My mention is the Senator Armstrong fight from Revengance. He stole the entire show. Every line of his is a meme. I don’t even know how they pulled him off as well as they did, but it’s glorious.
I especially love when You Will Know Our Names is used for story boss fights, because it means for this fight, your party is the boss’ unique monster.
Honestly I could see top 10 lists of moments that go hard from individual series. I wanna hear you talk about awesome moments from Zelda again and Metroid and Kirby and persona and etc. etc. is basically what I’m saying lol
The Excision mission from the end of the latest Destiny 2 expansion, The Final Shape, goes *damn* hard. It's an "Avengers Assemble" moment of all the allies the story has built up over the years, and then they're all NPCs helping you fight in the first-ever intentional 12 man mission. And behind it all the music is this triumphant, heroic, "we're swinging the final stroke to end this enemy" theme that gets my blood pumping every time I replay it.
And then the way it ends, with all the ending cutscenes... I'm not going to spoil, but it was absolutely amazing.
Pretty much every moment in Asura's Wrath is a spectacle. I will never get over Asura punching a planet-sized God so hard that he disintegrated and exploded.
Final Fantasy 7 theme for Sephiroth. This goes so hard it defines the word.
Raven Beak getting a wing blown off then nonchalantly ripping off the other one was pretty awesome too.
Shoutout to Ganondorf himself in that finale for having a psychotic breakdown and what is probably the greatest evil laugh of all time.
As soon as I heard Ravenbeak's theme in the back and Samus coming on screen I immediately smiled as I knew what was coming for No.1.
That scene/fight and game was so good and so fun. Samus having a Doomguy moment (the times she did after each boss), absolutely wonderful.
Samus losing her shit (when normally silent and composed) and absolutely eviscerating Ravenbeak, *Head shaking about and Lazers coming out of eyes*.
The ultimate "My Turn" scene to exist in a videogame
Some examples that jump to mind for me:
- Ultrakill is filled to the brim with moments like this, but I'll just mention the second Gabriel fight as one of the best.
- Singlehandedly storming Valestein Castle in Ys: The Oath in Felghana to the tune one of the most bad-ass tracks in gaming history.
- Jon Irenicus' prison break in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn.
- The monologue that precedes the final boss of Dusk (i.e. my favorite villain monologue in all of gaming).
- "Take your best shot, Flatlander Woman" from Deus Ex.
'You don't need to go that hard', people say.
But by all means, go as hard as you want. It will be forever remembered.
Handily one of the hardest moments I've seen in a video game is the end of the first act in Bravely Second. I won't spoil anything, but if you know, you know.
A recent example for me is the final three chapters of the Tekken 8 story mode. They consist of nothing but a huge fight between Jin and Kazuya which goes from the depths of a volcano, to a meteor hurdling through space towards the ground below, to what else, but a cliff, naturally. From an outsiders perspective that just sounds like normal fighting game nonsense but this is a fight that’s been built up for 20 years and there’s so much catharsis in it with all these crazy callbacks to old games and things like that. The story isn’t just told through cut scenes, but Through Jin's moveset, as it evolves and expands during the fight. Even the music gets in on it. It’s crazy.
The end of the Delta Episode of Pokemon ORAS. You're riding Mega Rayquaza in space, destroying the meteor, saving the world, and then that triangle. It was Deoxys, a pokemon only accessible through events you couldn't go to, now right there for the taking. And its theme is back, the best music in the franchise up to that point, and now it's better than ever.
I think the fight with Bahamut in Final Fantasy 16 goes so hard, it literally couldn't go any higher after that.
I can’t get Mario screaming and killing bowser out of my head now
You know a content creator that always goes HARD, you Rabid.
Mario making a bloodcurdling warcry and utterly curbstomping Bowser... Didn't that happen in Pizza Tower? ...What do you mean that wasn't mario.
10:21 Not to mention Thor unintentionally (or intentionally depending on how you look at it) breaking the 4th-Wall as well. XD
For me, my favorite moment that goes hard is definitely the final part of Chaos Elfilis’s boss fight in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Not only it’s awesome of Chaos Elfilis trying to have the New World collide with Pop Star, but the way he gets defeated by having Kirby use a truck to get through different parts destroyed and obliterate him. It’s so ridiculously over the top it hilariously goes hard. XD
There is nothing harder in Xenoblade than a Xenoblade 2 or 3 overkill. You feel like a god and get rewarded with so much experiencez
If I had to compare what Samus did, it's that same feeling of watching Goku go Super Saiyan against Freiza, only skipping to the ending of that fight. A scream of pure rage that has built up over the course of the game after seeing repeatedly just how depraved Raven Beak was. The idea that she could fail to stop Raven Beak after all the effort she put forward just pushed her into fully embracing the Metroid DNA she had in her. Fitting that Metroid roughly means ultimate warrior in Chozo.
I love that freeze frame on Gannon's face. Gannon has the best derpy faces. And totally agree with No 1. Samus losing her cool is both so unexpected, yet understandable once you have a chance to think on it. I do hope we get Metroid 6 one day, though I have no idea where they can go from here as Dread caps things off very nicely.
Just remember...Samus has fought Ridley, the hulking hyper-intelligent giga-beast space pirate leader that orphaned her by murdering her parents in cold blood right in front of her, COUNTLESS times...and never ONCE exploded with the force of 1,000 suns like what she did when confronting Raven Beak for the final time. This means she saw Raven Beak as WORSE than RIDLEY! Think about that! Think about EVERYTHING that Ridley and his band of space brigand bastards have done...now look at what Raven Beak has done. Yeah...what was that famous Alien tagline? "In space, no one can hear you scream"? Uh, BUUUULL *SHIT* ya can't! I just heard the pained primal war cry of the galaxy's greatest warrior unleashed with the force of an antimatter BOMB! And it was EPIC! Jaw still on the floor, haven't the heart or energy to pick it up! :O
I think cause Raven Beak let it all happen. That guy is willing to sacrifice anything for his own gains.
Ridley and the space pirates are power hungry too, but a lot of the time... that blows up in their own faces as we see in some games.
I wouldn't be surprised that Mother Brain turned evil and took over cause "she saw it logically" Maybe she gets retconned that Raven Beak told her to allow this, to gather more information on Metroids.
And sure Other M is questionable but we do see a possible "good mother brain" who cares and was unrestricted.
If Raven Beak is the cause of all that is bad in the Metroid Universe for his own quest for power.. it makes Ridley his unexpected pawn. And all this time Raven Beak could have done something, but insted.. he decided to rule everything.
Suddenly Ridley doesn't seem bad. Just a smart beast that kills for fun. But someone like Raven Beak? He would totally control Ridley and let him have his fun.
...And ironically Ridley does listen to Mother Brain and Dark Samus.. so...naturally.. Raven Beak would be 10 times worst then Ridley ever could be.
@@kotlolish From what I understand, Gray Voice was one of the DNA donors for Samus alongside Raven Beak, and Dread may very well have included him as a cameo in the Body Adaptation Process; whilst Gray Voice only appears in the manga, his prominent role was as surrogate father, raising her to be a powerful warrior under the supervision of Mother Brain, who at first had dismissed Samus as a weakling and unworthy of their time. Apparently, Mother Brain was the one who had designed the Power Armor and was responsible for aiding in the Body Adaptation Process. Whilst Raven Beak very well could have played a part in her turning, considering how Mother Brain's superiority complex made her turn against her creators, it would then imply that he WANTED her to turn against them, or simply planted the seeds in her consciousness to make that happen. Considering Mother Brain isn't only a supercomputer, but a thinking biological organism, it's possible that she possesses insecurities that could be preyed upon; it could very well be that Raven Beak expertly pulled those strings to force her to continue propagating his eventual Metroid army, making her THINK she was the one in control; if that is all the case, then it really does go to show just how manipulative and influential he was, and that, to him, any failures were just "minor setbacks" to be discarded like trash. Yeah...by comparison, in spite of his MONSTROUS savagery and cunning intellect, Ridley is a PUP. Hell...who's to say the bastard didn't rub off on Ridley? Maybe Ridley even found him to be "impressive"...someone he could "respect", even? Considering who and what Ridley is...makes ya wonder...you think he'd have teamed up with Raven Beak directly pursuing power like him...or tried to destroy him seeing Raven Beak as a genuine threat to his operations, considering someone like that would discard him at the slightest provocation of betrayal or simply because his usefulness ends? Scary thoughts... O.O
Splatoon and Super Smash Bros franchise goes hard with it's boss fights.
The Cynthia, or in parallel the Volo fight goes hard in Pokémon. The music fuels what is about to be one of the hardest fights in the series.
honestly i couldn't think of a top one for me until I learned about number 1 here and damn i agree
-Parrying the things you should have ZERO RIGHT PARRYING in Ultrakill. : The fist of essentially a collossal titan trying to punch a human sized you, the sword of essentially Raiden if he were 100% machine , the attacks of the literal Archangel Gabriel
-Chasing off Crimson squadron in Project wingman SOLO: The game suggests YOU TO RUN "Caution! Crimson!, everyone on your side hightails it and runs. You can decide to stay and fight the enemy elite force, something everyone just shat their pants over and ran AND YOU CAN WIN. Damage one enough AND THEY TURN TAIL! Proclaiming that there is a good pilot among you and they would sure love to fight you another time
That time Messmer The Impaler when "sorry Mother, it's snek time 😔" and then Base Serpant Messmer snekked all over the place
I would say that the final boss of Pizza Tower somehow manages to go pretty hard, even though it's been taking itself not seriously up until now and during.
And yet, the music and animations manage to make it feel like one of the most badass things I've done all year.
I fully expected the fight against Armstrong from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance to be on here. It goes so hard
Yeah, unless you've hit 40 (and PLUS in my case), you don't get to feel old enough for the Steve Buscemi reference from 30 Rock! 🤣
Walk Softly and Carry a big stick moments in gaming would be a cool follow up to this, the scenes where there's just a quiet sense of, "Oh Shit, I'm Dangerous." or "Oh Shit, I fucked up messing with this guy."
A moment that goes hard for me in particular is something from Pokemon.
Say what you will about Ultra Sun & Moon, but their Episode RR is one of the coolest additions to any Pokemon postgame before gen 9's DLC. The moment in Episode RR that goes hard for me, though, is Ghetsis's entire encounter. Threatening your friend, your own Pokemon in their Balls wanting to do their best Scrappy Doo "lemme at 'em" impression, and a fight against a Ghetsis who WON his conquest in his universe. Few things are as cathartic as staring down his box legendary and properly-leveled Hydreigon.
God of War II : Climb a giant being, betcha ya having seen that before
Shadow of the Colossus: Am I a joke to you?
I was giggly when I heard the xeno 3 chain attack music
And then you zoomed in on the monado and shocked people around me by jumping up
For me it's Mythra's intro in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. The party is fighting Akhos and Malos, and the stakes are at an all-time high. Vandham just died suddenly, the whole party has curbstomped and injured, and Rex isn't thinking straight. He charges at Malos - basically running headfirst into certain death. Pyra SCREAMS his name (seriously that scream goes HARD), the music crescendos, the scene cuts to black...
Then you see a robot satellite thing floating in orbit, it powers on, Pyra EXPLODES, then there are orbital lasers. So far, the game has been about medieval-esque technology with swords and magic-like energy attacks. Space travel or ANYTHING similar isn't something you expect to see. So the whole game just abruptly kicks it up several notches when Pyra transforms into Mythra and executes the most GLORIOUS reverse-curbstomp, orbital lasers blazing. Malos and Akhos are running for their lives, screaming, being thrown around like ragdolls, oh and I didn't even mention the music. Just mmmf perfect.
Any time a boss uses the videogame's mechanics against you (kinda like #2).
Transistor's final boss (Theseus to a less extent), Vanitas D-Linking himself to you, someone using WitchTime against Bayonetta, or "The Seat of Sacrifice" from XIV starting off it's boss fight by filling its own Limit Break meter. Then, of course, there's everything about the Sans fight...
The final boss fight against Xemnas in KH2 went so hard. Idk if any game has really beaten it, but these were cool too.
I could include Demise’s death in Skyward Sword. As in the first Link absorbed lightening into the Master Sword and at the same time, leaps at him and proceeds to launch it into his fucking head. I sadly haven’t played the game all that much but from what I saw in playthroughs, it looked so badass and all done in gameplay no less.
It’s hard to pull off but extremely satisfying. I think it’s more cool looking than a QTE. I like that you can pull that off in game play without diminishing the cool factor.
My hardest moments both come from Persona 5 Royal, my favorite game of all time (special mention to Peppy's kamikaze and Wolf's sacrifice from Star Fox Assault). But back to Royal, Joker finds himself surrounded, only to be approached by the Phantom Thief later known as Violet, who throws her rapier, barely missing Joker and killing a Shadow right behind him, then Take Over kicks in and it's glorious. The other one is when a super strong enemy is about to use one of the strongest target all physical attacks in the game on Joker and Crow, then Skull comes sprinting in, fresh off of remembering the past, tanks the full force of the attack, and then Rivers in the Desert starts up, so damn peak
The fact you teased MGR throughout the video… AND HE ISNT ON THE LIST!!! Ridiculous. Although, Samus’s outrage was amazing
I haven't played the newer Gpd of War games, since I dont own a PlayStation, but the moment of Thor reviving you on a LOAD SCREEN is some of the most meta shit I've seen in a while!
Almost the entirety of DMC5, MGR Revengeance and FFXVI could go on this list. They all go super hard
#0: Every second of Asura's Wrath.
The entirety of the Fire Gaian boss fight in Elden Ring. That goes pretty hard, in phase one.
Phase two goes really hard.
People said Jack Black singing Peaches in the Mario Movie was "going hard," so it's safe to say that almost any way of using that phrase is valid.
I've got to give a shout out to the game Furi, which goes crazy hard in every conceivable direction.
AC6. Facing off against Handler Walter. Why does it hurt my feelings so much? He always believed in me and wanted me to succeed, and get my life back. He sacrificed so much to try and live up to a stupid legacy he never wanted. He got captured and turned into a mind controlled drone by a terrible corporation. But even after all of it, he sees me, and sees how hard I'm fighting, and lowers his gun, telling me how proud he is of me. He lets go, and 621 most likely gets away. WHY WALTER, WHYYYY?!
Also that Metroid Dread ends a curse for Samus' character that lasted since the debut of the seires: after that, is not wrong anymore to call her "Metroid".
i never thought of it that way.
When it comes to moments that make me jump out of my seat in hype, one immediately comes to mind: the intro to the 2nd Kuze fight in Yakuza 0.
Top 5 moments in gaming that make you cry
Haha! You thought TOTK Ganondorf is the best for making meme faces. But you we're wrong. Wind Waker Ganondorf did them first. 😜
I thought I got a bad ending with the Metroid Dread moment. Then it ended like that.
The end of Saint's Row the 3rd goes hard. I think about it all the time.
Next video will be how much rizz is yeeted for based games
Peak 👏
Pokemon Black/White 2, fighting against Colress, his music goes so fucking hard. Love it every time i do a playthrough
You know what really went hard. This video!!!!!! 🐇
Dread has 10 top 10 moments let's be honest lol
One thing you didn't mention is that "You Will Know Our Names" plays in two boss fights, one at the mid-game climax and during the penultimate boss and they work just as well there.
Also, surprised you didn't mention the derivatives used in 2 or 3, or the completely unique version used in X.
Personally prefer 3's version, "You Will Know Our Names - Finale".
Yeaaah Rabbid's back🎉
Sanger Zonvolt from the Super Robot Wars series has no reason to be as hammy as he is.
Well, okay, fine; he has several reasons, it's Super Robot Wars, what do you expect; you're capable of impossible things, curbstomping, and you have a robot that does it for you.
But then you put him on the horse, which need I remind you is piloted by "Trombe!" guy Elzam von Bronstein.
And then, when you make the anime, Sanger hijacks the anime to star in his own anime.
i think you already put my #1 choice AS #1 in this list lol
but if i were to suggest another one, first thing that comes to mind is the fight against Yami in Okami... particularly the moment you get your TRUE power back.
honorable mentions for basically any other time shiranui is on screen.
They're really good picks, but I always find myself wanting to give one of my own.
The good ending of the demon lord story in La Pucelle Ragnarok. By this point, main villain Noir has taken an interest in Prier. His plans have gone from using the Dark Prince as a sacrifice to having Demon Lord Prier fight him and have them kill each other.
This plan fails in every route, but the good ending in particular shows just how grossly he had underestimated Prier's newfound power. The final battle consists of her purifying the Dark Prince, which results in him reforming and Noir having to deal with *two* opponents far stronger than him.
In a fit of desperation, Noir transforms into his powered up form that is the final boss of the main story... except this time it doesn't even warrant a map, he's so outclassed that Prier and the now Dark Hero punt him into oblivion in a cutscene.
Number 1 is perfect!
The Tekken games have a lot of awesome moments, especially in places like the final fights in Tekken 7 and 8. The music and the overall tone of what's going on goes hard, even if you're not the one playing. I'd highly recommend checking them out. They're some of the best final fights in gaming imo.
It was really toon link that taught twilight princess link how to do the finishing blow
