That moment in Dead Space 2's opening most recently. The guys transformation right up in your face is most excellent.

Ohhh shit, I'm in a spinning... thing! For some reason! Whoa!
I had that spoiled for me on 4chan the day the game came out. I could not believe the thumbnail I was looking at and wondered how the hell they could POSSIBLY find a way to make this happen sensibly. Well, they didn't find that way.

Portal 2 Coop.
Putting repulsion gel on a hard light bridge.
I had it spoiled for me months before the game came out thanks to Kotaku posting it as a top news story :|

I think this was my first genuine 'oh shiit' moment in a video game:
Super Mario Bros. 3 world 5
Same here!
Kinda similar response when I landed on the moon in Super Mario Land 2, which was so awesome to have Mario jumping in space!

Someone needs to explain this would you kindly thing. I thought it was something originating from the hey ash series as I've seen it on shirts they sell.

I know it is recent but diving through an airplane at the beginning of SR the Third dropped my jaw.

Back in 2003, the first time I played PlanetSide on my PC, I remember spawning at a tower and when I exited it, seeing all the tracers and laser beams arcing all over the battlefield was amazing. I had never witnessed so much on screen mayhem created by actual players in a game before. I recall just standing there, watching in all directions at the battle. It still holds up as my fondest gaming memory to date.

The last 3 hours of Red Dead Redemption. Had a sore jaw for days after that.
I always reply with the ending of Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2 to these threads.

It's something from Bioshock. If someone else wants to spoil it, go ahead.
Bioshock 1 spoilers:
It becomes apparent pretty far in that the unreliable narrator/mission HQ of the game has been controlling the player with the phrase "would you kindly," and that the origin of the player character isn't as generic as we thought. The game says something with the way this plays out and how the player has been mindlessly following his orders without questioning the narrator's motives.
On my own case, pretty much all of Metroid Prime 2 Echoes. Like, every goddamn room. Sanctuary Fortress in particular.

The Shagohod chase in MGS3 blew me away the first time I played it. It was unlike anything I had ever seen in a video game. A perfect merging of movie like action scenes and gameplay.
An example that instantly comes to mind is the whole last section of disk 3 in Shenmue 3. Breaking into the yellowhead building and the accompanying action scenes were mind-boggling at the time.
The whole section leading up until the confrontation with Don Nui and start down with Lan Di on the helicopter was a fantastic blend between, quick time events, puzzles and some fantastic free battles including fighting Bai Hui.
When Lan Di was revealed to be on the helicopter, it just pushed it over the edge.

Returning to Hyrule in Wind Waker. I was 10 at the time, and played Ocarina of Time all constantly until Wind Waker came out. In the age before internet spoilers my jaw dropped. It was a brilliant twist.

I haven't played Bioshock, but AFAIK it's
a quote from Andrew Ryan, the antagonist in the game
For the love of all that is good just play Bioshock, stop reading this thread immediately. You won't regret it.
Yes. I couldn't believe my old PS2 was drawing the pictures I was seeing on the screen.
The best part was that I didn’t realize what I was doing. It wall all instinct. Then in that tiny tiny pause I though to myself “Wait, WHAT did I just do there?! That cant wor....”

this and watching the ice melt in mgs2 in the tanker section
Just read through that interview, very interesting, thanks for the link.
But holy shit, I don't usually point this out, but the grammar was AWFUL.
I know you meant God of War, and not World of Warcraft, and I agree.
Yeah, every area in Cave Story was fantastic, imo. But that area combined with the music was really cool.
I JUST did this like two days ago in Cave Story 3D. Absolutely awesome, loved it.

Pretty much all of Bayonetta and the village in Resident Evil 4.
