Your proudest moment in gaming.

That one time. Yeah...I was so proud.

 

Haven't been big on gaming since the days of N64, should say. Outside of maybe the Diablo and Morrowind franchises.

That said my "proudest" moment was when... let me set the background - had one friend that was extremely good at all fighting games (stuff like Tekken, Soulcaliber, etc.) that I could almost never beat. The one time I did find a game I was better than him at was some PS2 version of Mortal Kombat (I think it was "Armageddon," looking at the list of them). I beat the shit out of him in that one, constantly. He wouldn't let me play it again after that day. :lol:


That or attaining a partyhat set in Runescape - but, I mean, come on, Runescape...I'm almost embarrassed to note that I was engrossed in it at one point in time.

 

This moment was from forever ago, but it was when I discovered a secret in Super Mario World that i'm pretty sure few people knew about. This secret was in the Tubular level of the Special world. Tubular is infamously known for being the hardest level in the entire game, even harder than Bowser's castle. In the level, you have to guide Mario across an endless abyss teeming with a barage of enemies and other obstacles, all using the balloon power-up to float around, which only lasts for a limited amount of time. However, I discovered a shortcut at the top of the stage, just off of the screen. There's some kind of platform just out of vision that you can just run on the entire stage and get the the Goal Point with ease. Cheating? A little bit, but boy was I proud when I finally beat that hellish level.

This one also happened a long time ago as well. Back when Pokemon Diamond and Pearl came out, I was just getting into the series, and a friend even game me my favorite Pokemon, one that you can't get on Diamond and Pearl, Trapinch. I loved that Trapinch to death, and the first thing I did was take it to the Fight Area during the post-game and train it on the high level Pokemon on the nearby route. I stayed up all night on a Friday just to train it to be the strongest it could be. It was the first Pokemon I got to level 100, as a Flygon. Sadly, I still don't have it, but that memory has a lot of sentimental value with me.

I'm sure I have more, they're just not coming to mind! ^-^

 

I have several really proud moments in gaming ranging from simply completing a game to almost unreal feats which i have performed. I have more than one so i will list 3:

1. I made a challenge to myself to beat the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 campaign on veteran difficulty, dying less than five times and I did it, dying 4 times.

2. This one isnt a huge achieved as many, many other people had done it, however it was a first time for me, so i felt proud: I used to play Runescape when i was younger, and I had never beaten a boss before, so i decided to get my best gear (which was quite awful) and take on the King Black Dragon, and I killed it~

3. I was playing an MMORPG and this one guild/party/clan were absolutely huge, and I sort of had a crazy-stupid idea to attempt to bring them down a level. So I asked the leader if I could talk to him in a specific area, in which was a player-versus-player area which hardly anyone knew about. I waited for him in this area with a multi-target hammer which was extremely overpowered and extremely expensive. The leader came and because he thought the place of meeting was a safe area, thought it was a very clever idea to bring 4 other high-ranked members, as soon as they entered the area they obviously noticed it was a pvp zone and attempted to flee, however I had already attacked with the hammers special and destroyed 3 of them, including the leader, the 4th managed to escape but I had achieved my goal and the 6th highest ranking guild became the 11th, and I gained a ton of cool new gear. Needless to say i was hated by a large amount of people after, but i am still to this day proud of how I used my mind and thought how to go around getting something I simply wanted :lol:

 

Not really a big deal, but I was really proud that one time I beat the shadow queen in Paper Mario

 

Defeating the 16th Colossus. It took me hours...

But I had to... for Agro. FOR AGRO!

 

Beating Shadow of the Collosus.
But of course, only to kill the one I love. Nice. Really. Really. Nice.

 

It's a toss up between finding the last blast shard in Infamous (fukc that trophy was impractical) and beating the shi-wolf boss in Castlevania Chronicles.

 

One time on WoW when in 3vs3 arena fight it came down to me and another player and my mana was out on my warlock...i hade to convert hp into mana and then proceeded to crit the shit out of the warrior left. I won and got our team some awesome rating and points.

das what's up (!)

 

Mount and Blade: Napoleonic Wars, I got a 76 bayonet kill streak in multilayer as a defender. I even got accused of hacking :lol:

 

so I play Magic The Gathering and Cube draft basically every weekend.

best moment for me was Turn 1 Sol Ring, turn 2 Tinker. Opponent Spell Pierced Tinker, I cast force of Will exiling Ponder with Jace TMS in hand for turn 3. Opponent lost the counter war, I grabbed Sundering Titan, shot his Island. He casts swords to Plowshares on my Titan, I take his plains as it leaves place, then cast Jace TMS and proceed to win the game.


ah broken combo decks...

 

I got to stage 8 in Galaxian on my last life.

Was the farthest I've gotten since I had it at home

 

1.) Beating Operation Darkness without letting any character die. So hard.
2.) Beating Ace Combat 5 on Ace Mode with a flight Stick. (Tough)
3.) Going 42/2 in Nuketown on Hardcore Team Death in Call of Duty: Black Ops

if I think of anymore of my top proud moments... I will let you know

 

Finishing all the numbered Halo games on Legendary is up there. But my personal proudest is in the things I've built in Kerbal Space Program. When you succeed in building and docking two ships together for the first time, you feel like a fookin' BOSS.

 

Only 15 hp left in Morgana in LoL and was chased by Jinx and Tristana. Seven minions came to my rescue and got to a turret, which stalled them enough for me to get back to my base to regenerate.

 

From the same game, my proudest moment in gaming is the first time I defeated Bonetail.

Holy shit, I've never had such a nerve-wracking boss battle. Hours spent getting through the Pit of 100 Trials, so many chaotic battles at the end where nearly everything was lost, and then that boss at the end wearing through all my items, KOing all my weakened party members until it just came down to Mario and Bonetail smashing each other with straight physical moves, but Bonetail dropped first. It was just the difference of one lucky badge dodge that helped me win.

 

Talking down Emerald and Ruby Weapon on Final Fantasy 7. When the game first came out I was too young to do the grinding required to get the "Knights of the Round" and "Mime" materias. I finally downloaded it off PSN last year and beat it. It was one of those achievements that it took like 15 years to get.
