Ah, the Deling City parade was class, yeah. And great music, the music is one of the strongest things about FFVIII, IMO. Not surprising since it's still our man Uematsu.
{Don't even get me started on music, I would just list the entire FFVII soundtrack...)
Many memorable moments playing FF. I love the scene in VI where 'everything changes' (can't really say more than that without giving stuff away...).
In VII, other than the bits Talysia mentioned, I loved the Shinra parade in Junon, I
adore the cut scenes with Aeris at the Gold Saucer (even if I get teary-eyed
)...waking up Vincent is cool...
Everything about the Temple of the Ancients, from the music, to how it looks, to...well, yeah.
Everything.
The scene at the Forgotten City is tough, and I can't say I
like it, but it is a great scene.......
And then the whole scene at the Whirlwind Maze when you-know-who gets the Black Materia......
(Looks like I could be here a while, too!
)
Er, parachuting into Midgar....
And of course the Ruby and Emerald weapon fights. I'll never forget when it crashed the first time I beat Ruby Weapon, and I was left staring at the red outline of the dying monster in disbelief..........
I liked the Lunatic Pandora and Ultimecia's Castle in VIII. And the Ragnarok scene was touching, but
Eyes On Me sort of ruined it for me, probably because I'm male and was uncomfortable with the schmaltziness of it
p). The tune on its own I actually like, and perhaps I could've handled the words if they were just written down, but Ms Faye Wong did nothing for me, I'm afraid.
Anyway, will I go on forever? Sheesh. In IX there's the whole scene at the Tree of Life, and who can forget the battle between Bahamut and Alexander? That FMV was fantastic, as was the earlier one at Cleyra.
Also, seeing that Ultima, which we couldn't use (Grrr!) was
pink!!! That was memorable for all the wrong reasons.........
In X....there were a lot of scenes I liked in X. The temples were great, and getting to the Calm Lands and seeing the view out over them for the first time was cool. The Dark Aeon and Monster Arena fights were
all memorable, pretty much, too.
Best of all was the moment I realised Penance was dead, though.
As for XII...
meh. All I can really say is that beating Yiazmat, Ultima and Omega Mk. XII was fun. I didn't really get much out of XII beyond the fighting........
Other games? Do they exist?
Well, dispatching Sniper Wolf and winning the final fight with Liquid Snake both stick in my mind, from the original MGS. Another one that springs immediately to mind is beating the witch at the end of Castle of Illusion on the Megadrive. And completing Super Mario World on the SNES. Beating M. Bison. The bit in Strider where there's the boss fight in the anti-gravity room, that was cool....
Getting
Elite status in Frontier, and becoming a Prince of the Empire, too......
