Best Screen Captured Moments

So when I was thinking about what to make some sort of list about today. I had quite a few ideas all of which I will get to, but today what I came to decide on today was Screen Captured moments. You see there is many games good or bad which have those moments which happen and you are like wow I wish I could have that as a picture. Some of these moments are iconic, some of them are forgotten after years away from them. It remains to be said though that the shot itself will always be epic. SO here are my top 5 which I think you will all appreciate.

5. Sarah Kerrigan during the battle with Narud


There are countless screens which you could have taken from the fight itself but this is by far my favourite. It is iconic in the fact that her is the Queen of Blades focused on her goal doing what she has to no matter the cost. It gives me nerd chills just looking at it.

4. Leah turning into Diablo


Again right after the betrayal your first playthrough you are still in shock of what happened. Diablo is now the person who has been helping along the way. This is also right before the fight with Imperius so seeing this just reminds me of how epic that fight was and the transformation itself.

3. Illidan Stormrage "The Betrayer Speech"


This is the first time you see Illidan's full half demon half nightelf transformation. This is also the opening screen to Warcraft III Frozen Throne. Which I still feel has one of the greatest stories of any RTS and they aren't even supposed to have stories. Everytime I see this pic I say the words in my head again and again "Betrayer it was I who was betrayed" if that isn't reason enough to put this on the list I don't know what is.

2. Plane Crash Behind Drake


There truly is nothing to love about this. Ignore the fact you were on the plane. Ignore the fact that you are in the middle of the desert. Ignore all of that and the shot is still amazing. This screams "cool guys don't look at explosions" and I don't even know if this was done on purpose. There really is nothing to not love about Drake's character and this shot explains it all in a nutshell.

1. Sephiroth In The Flames


There is no moment in gaming which is analyzed more than this. There is no moment which shows off a greater villian. There is pain hatred and insanity all together. I  don't think there was any doubt of any of you when you were reading this list of what would be number 1 and that is why it is #1. The shot of shots one which all will be compared to till the end of time.

Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did writing it. If you ever have shots of anything you want to take a look at send them along I always love a good screen shot unless it is of a turtle of course.

The Epic First Times

So we have been messing around with Sindragosa for a few weeks now, but I won't soon forget the first time she landed with everyone saying "SHE'S HUGE". This was one of the times where the first time you see a boss it was an extremely big deal. She owned us there mostly because we weren't expecting her to land right after we killed the two much smaller dragons. This got me thinking about the times where other bosses entrances were pretty epic the first time they happened. So here goes.

Ragnaros: First major End Boss in the game shooting up through the Lava. Was a site to see the first time it happened. TOO SOON!!!! Became this iconic flare that has stuck around for years.

Nefarion: When Nefarion Phase 2 happened and he breathed on the raid and landed in dragon form. There was nothing bigger boss wise in WoW. I don't know if he is bigger than Sindragosa maybe the memory of the first time seeing him land is still in my mind. "FACE THE TRUE LORD OF BLACKROCK SPIRE".

Ouro: One of the optional bosses in AQ40. You go into his room which was completely empty and wonder what to expect when....I giant earthworm comes out of nowhere! Ah yes I can still hear the "Oh Craps" from the first time it happened.

Illidan: Illidan didn't surprise anyone or anything like that he was there chilling with the skull and you could walk up to him and take your screenshots. But he is one of the biggest Lore characters in WoW and the first time he said "YOU ARE NOT PREPARED" you listened and obviously you found out you weren't...

Kil'Jaeden: If Rag shooting up through the portal was something. KJ climbing through it was something much more. Ya the normal "Oh Crap" feeling to go along with the "Let's do this thing!"

Algalon: When the encounter goes into seizure mode you feel it. Videos just don't give it justice something you just have to see.

Arthas: Waiting on this one, should be awesome.
