Here are 7 of the greatest moments in gaming! (At least it's not a top 10 right?) They range from the big surprise in Metroid to surprising deaths in games. This list will be constantly updated with more gaming moments. Feel free to contribute your own also.

Back in the day, that revelation shocked the gaming community. Up until then it was generally assumed that the soldiers in video games were men. And in one swift helmet removal, that all changed – for the better.

    You know, I've always wondered why when Sub-Zero ripped off Sonya's head, she looked like Hulk Hogan...

    Can we please put a cap on these sorts of stories? Or at least try and cut down on similar ones.

    it has to be one of the greatest gaming moments to find out shooting the fish has its dire consequences
    No, no it is not. It may be neat first time you do it, but 10 minutes later you've forgotten about it in the face of more important concepts.

    The idea that something like this ranks up there with moments that have truely defined the video games market is ridiculous. Perhaps picking out moments like Mario's first foray into 3D might have been too predictable, but substituting it with trivial moments like this is a bad joke.

      I would hardly call the revelation of Samus actually being a girl "trivial".

        I didn't say anything about Samus. I was referring entirely to pointless gaming moments like the "RE4 Big Fish".
