curious ~ throughout your entire video-game playing history (as far back as you can remember.. ^.-) - what is your most favored, memorable moment?

~for myself - it would have to be...during the days of Atari 400 & one stress-bender of a game called, Gyruss.. >.< i could honestly state for the record that out of all attempts at playing that game, i made it to Earth once, once.. that was a war as i recall, & the world stood still - it was your's truly vs. the machine; i was determined on that day, perhaps it was high tide, perhaps the planets aligned.. whatever the case, i succeeded on that day.. afterwards, i couldn't do it since.. =. lol, that moment was pinnacle - of course, there are other such moments, but this one is key..

HA - in your face, Gyruss! ;p

Final Fantasy II - Palom and Porom sacrificing themselves to save you. This nearly pulled a tear from my eye. I grew strangely attached to the different characters in this game. Unfortunately, I stopped my Final Fantasy'ing at this title, so I never had a chance to play 3 or some of the more recent ones.

I totally forgot about that part. I have only played though it once, but it too, like Aeris's death in FF7 brought tears to my eyes as well. I kept going back to that place in FF2 in hopes they would turn back and rejoin the team...oh well, it never happened. Like I said, so many characters die off or awful things like this happen to them in FF2.
