Simply put, what do you believe the most jarring moment in any video game is? I'd advise only picking one, choose wisely.
I would have to say Shepard's betrayal in MW2 was the most jarring. It came out of no where in the middle of a very intense mission, leading to the deaths of two characters you had grown to love. That moment is one of the only times I have ever gotten emotional over a video game. I was angry at Shepard and had a drive to kill him. I was sad that these two characters died after that in such an unexpected way. Price coming over the radio as the two were burned alive really sealed the deal for me, one of those help is too late moments. Heavy stuff for a game series most take for granted. Also as a side not destroying Infinity Ward was the most idiotic move Activision ever made.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Ness4side The ending of CoD4 shocked me quite a bit. This was back when it was still a bit taboo to kill off numerous main characters in video games (now it happens all the time). I loved MW1 and MW2 campaigns.[/quote]And yet somehow COD is labeled generic just for it's multiplayer. Sad really. Especially when I hear praise for the Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2's soundtracks, yet people call Black Ops 2's generic. Same composer, same great work. Ignorant people. I also find it funny that 343i highly publicized they recorded in Abby Road Studio, yet almost know one knows the Black Ops 2's entire soundtrack was recorded there as well. Recording location should not ever be made a selling point.
