Marvel Spider man (2018) final fight against Doc Ock
last of us
Doom eternal the ancient gods part 2, when the slayer arrives at emorra

All the cut scenes during Cere’s final battle with Vader in Jedi Survivor
I love that Metal Gear is on this list multiple times, truly amazing cutscenes
You can do a top 20 from this series alone
And…
WHOA HOOOOOOOOOOO
ghost of tsushima the final choice of either killing or sparing the uncle is epic
A few more mentions:
1. God of War Ragnarok - Kratos and Mimir comforting Brok after learning about Sindri’s horrible secret.
2. Uncharted 2 Among Thieves - Nate and Tenzin find the heart of Schafer’s research, and learn the gravity of the Chintamani Stone situation.
3. Ghost of Tsushima - Masako laying her sons to rest, and honoring their memories.
4. Uncharted 4 A Thief’s End - Nate and Sam chat about their mother with her employer, Evelyn.
5. Red Dead Redemption - John sacrifices himself to save his wife and his son.
6. Cyberpunk 2077 - the voice mails of the suicide ending, especially from Judy
Honorable mentions
Final Fantasy X - Yuna’s sending
Elden Ring - I am Melania , Blade of Miquella
Final Fantasy VII - Sephiroth kills Aerith
Final Fantasy X2- Thousand Words
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth - No Promises to Keep
Spider-Man 2 - Venom’s rampage
Halo Reach - Nobel 6 last stand
Yes, agree on all of those.
Sephiroth killing Aerith in Rebirth is kinda messy and convoluted. Nothing beats the OG.
Remember Reach
I’m just glad they put in the og Peter Parker for the Spider-Man cutscene
Idk how the ps5 face looks so bad in the first game but not as bad in 2nd
I would have added the battle simulator scene from Crisis Core with Sephiroth, Genesis and Angeal. It's my favorite to this day out of that whole series.
I love that scene.
The entire ending to Crisis Core is so gut wrenching and incredible.
@@iamskyfall That makes me cry harder than any other moment in a video game
Some other honorable mentions I would put in:
- The Normandy’s destruction (Mass Effect 2)
- The Bad News (Horizon Zero Dawn)
- “The game was rigged from the start.” (Fallout New Vegas)
- “You have no honor.” “And you are a slave to it.” (Ghost of Tsushima)
- White Phosphorus (Spec Ops The Line
The MGS3 ending would be #1 for me.
The opening cutscene in Sonic Unleashed is underrated.
I was hoping for an ME3 entry, but I wouldve chosen when the reapers invaded earth and shepard leaves. The music, the stakes, the terror. the motivation. It was so good
I feel the introduction to Final Fantasy 8 deserves to be on this somewhere.
My favs:
* Crisis Core - Final scene
* Crusader No Remorse - Intro
* Dawn of War 1 & 2 - Great intro's to both
* Fallout 1 - Intro. Quite chilling.
* Final Fantasy X - Both the intro and final cutscenes were excellent
* Full Throttle - Easily one of the most kickass intros of all time.
* Mechwarrior 2 - Intro
* Red Alert 1 - Intro
* Silent Hill 1 & 2's intro's, both equally outstanding.
* Starcraft - Space station cutscene
* Syndicate (93) - Legendary intro
* System Shock (original) - Intro
* The Darkness - Watching to Kill a Mockingbird with your girlfriend on the couch in all of it's 2 hour entirety (if you so choose to not end the cutscene).
* Witcher 3 - Ending of Blood and Wine
The final cutscene of Final Fantasy IX, I was crying tears of sadness and then tears of joy at the end. The won’t say why in case of spoilers for others, but to this day it is still my favourite FF in the series.
The ending to the fight with Maruki in Persona 5 Royal. After listening to "Throw Away Your Mask" during the actual fight, the triumphant reprise of "I Believe" might just be one of the best "good guy song takes over" moments since Victor Laszlo told Rick's Café's band to "Play La Marseilles. PLAY IT!"
Not to mention Billy Kametz’s amazing performance. RIP Billy.
Last of us should have 2 because when his daughter dies it still makes me cry and I’m a grown ass man
You didn't know that lil girl. What? 20 minutes of game time? Nonsense.
The ending of the Henry and Sam saga was very gut-wrenching.
Not having Aerith's death but including the QTE with Ultima in XVI was an odd choice.
Alan Wake 2 Herald of Darkness is an MasterPiece that will Live on Forever and it Deserves an Grammy Award
Lee’s death in The Walking Dead telltale series never gets mentioned in any of these videos… Such an underrated scene
I'm not a fan of the Metal Gear games, but the reveal in MGS3 is a masterpiece and should always be right at the top.
The cutscenes that hit me the most are Meryl’s death if you choose to submit to Ocelot’s torture in Metal Gear Solid, Jack (Raiden) reunited with his family in MGS4, and Sarah’s death in The Last of Us.
I would give mention to 3 more: the ending of Assassins Creed IV, when Anne Bonny sings and Edward see all of his dead friends before meeting his daughter. 2. Death Stranding when Cliff gets to see the man that Sam becomes one last time before his death. Mads Mikkelson and Norman Reedus are so damn good in it. If you don’t tear up at that, you have to be dead inside. 3. Red Dead Redemption: The Last Enemy That Shall Be Destroyed, you know the rest.
Top 20 Greatest Allies to Sonic the Hedgehog! For Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog!
Yes, that's what I want to see in Fearless Year of Shadow!
Espio is my favorite
The FF16 scene here was so visually arresting
It's moments like these that makes me proud to be a gamer, and that I won't stop gaming.
That one scene from Spec Ops: The Line
Gentlemen... welcome to Dubai.
The last cutscene between Joel and Ellie of The Last Of Us Part II?? HELLO???????
No cutscenes from that game is comparable to its predecessor !
@@hardcorevictor2552A lot of cutscenes are comparable. The second game tells a far more complex story. But I still might give the best cutscene in the series to either Sarah’s death or Joel’s lie.
@@iamskyfall "The second game tells a far more complex story." What ? You are the heroe of your own story and the bad guy of the others ? The first game already taught us that, we didn't need to play through the perspective of an unknow character to understand what we already knew. That was useless. Who give a heck about the daughter of a random NPC no-one even ever cared about before that game was released ? The Fireflies wanted revenge ? No sh*t Sherlock ! Do you really think they would be friend with Joel after what he did in the first game ? Don't need to be empathetic to guess how they feel about it, we didn't need to play as one of them to know something that obvious ! Is that your definition of "complex story" ?
"But I still might give the best cutscene in the series" this is just a Netflix like teen-drama that tells a very cliché revenge story. And the ending is like if Beatrix Kiddo would have killed everyone except Bill at the end.
@@iamskyfall "A lot of cutscenes are comparable." like what ? Abby's XXX scene ? What a joke !
@@iamskyfallget help
Gears of war 3? You know that one scene with Dom…
How could he not mention giving the Covenant back their bomb on the remastered Halo 2 graphics
Beyond two souls
U discovered the ghost that is with you is your twin brother...
That shocked me when I first see it didn't expect that
I'm really appreciate the fact that mgs3 cutscene outdid the ps2 era
Top 20 final fantasy villains
The training montage scene with Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn will always be one of my favorite cutscenes!
For me nothing compares to Arthur's goodbye to John and to his horse... Heartbreaking... 😭😭😭
Let's not forget AC Revelations in which Ezio finally meets Altaïr in his resting place: The Masyaf vault, 300 years after his passing and unveiling the last Masyaf key along with the Apple of Eden.
I think The Last Of Us Scene where Joel goes to find Ellie and rescues her from David deserves an honorable mention as well. Also liked the cutscene in Devil May Cry 5 Brother vs. Brother too and The cutscene in God Of War Ragnarok with Kratos telling his son Atreus a bedtime story too. That was really good! Nice job on the video too!
There are a dozen better cutscenes for the Final Fantasy Series then XVI's. FFIX Bahamut vs Alexander, FFX opening Sin destroying Zanarkand, or my personal fave, Dissadia the Heroes vs Villians.
You didn’t play ff16 so stop talking
Top 10 best boss transformations in video games
Exceptional list of choices I say.
Kingdom Hearts 2 the secret ending was phenomenal
You could’ve filled half the list with God of war content
Almost every cutscene from Red Dead Redemption 2 should be included. Like the death of Arthur and his horse, John and Arthur's farewell scene, John's American Venom from shooting 3 guys to killing Micah.
Also the ending of Ghost of Tsushima where the Ghost kills his uncle.
And Ezio meeting the grandmaster Altair.
You missed alot.
Liiiqqquuiiddddd
Snaaakkeee
thats a classic
You missed: “You were almost a Jill sandwich”
Kratos' monologue in Valhalla
The intro to Soul Reaver is always a stand out for me. Along with the intro to Total Annihilation.
A very rare hot take : even the brothers reuniting in the end of DMC5 was very beautiful but nothing beats their cutscenes in DMC3 mission 7,13 and 20 (so basically any of the DMC3 cutscene shoul've been added to this video, DMC5 is more modern doesn't mean it must added) anddd yessss alsooo literally any cutscenes of the greek saga god of war are like 100000 times better than 4 and ragnarok (womp womp + cry about it) so easily they also deserve to be in this list
My favorite cutscene of all time is cell scene with James and Maria in Silent Hill 2
Could have listed one of the many from Halo games. Probably ...wake me when you need me.
They put my fav game shadow of the colossus in it❤
Even though i think the saddest scene is when the girl wakes up and is all alone with the horse
I was gutted when Anderson died in ME3, and the way he died as well was just heartbreaking. I know it's an old game but I won't put spoilers here (I only just completed the Legendary Trilogy myself this year and am glad it never got spoilt for me.)
The NES Ninja Gaiden opening! So cool!
The ending of Witcher 3 when Regis and Geralt are talking by the campfire
From this list, i guess the Last of us. But there is one more that i can never forget, the one where Ares throws a spike and nails Kratos to the wall of the temple from miles away.
keep in mind RDR2 has 3 different endings
1: this the high honor ending
2: low honor enidng (my preferred ending, micah puts you down as you damn him to hell, arthur was a violent man and died violently)
3: whatever happens if you dont help john, go for some gold cut micahs eye out and then die anyway, with no finality whatsoever
Disagree, the high honour ending makes sense in the story, as it is the perfect full circle moment to Arthur’s redemption, aka the main plot of the game
Ludwig the holy blade?
The first watch dogs still have a badasses cutscenes ever dude
Lost The Last of Us showcased the best the medium has to offer on the PS3
Metal Gear Solid 4, Big Boss saying his proper goodbye to Solid Snake. Spiderman, quit killing Aunt May. Devil May Cry V, great action, but Sony addition of sunrays were what made them a joke. Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill made legendary works of art. MGS3, The Boss end was a difficult decision to make. RDR2 was epic, but losing Arthur was devastating.
The thumbnail broke my heart
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is everywhere on this channel. You cannot escape it
The Halo Wars cutscene with red team vs elites
I jist started the video and imma say if nier automata is not on this list imma be mad that whole game is a masterpiece and i can think of one scene in particular that was just beyond anything expected
Metal Gear Solid 4 would have been THE most meaningful since their Japanese VA's of Big Boss (Chiako Otsuka) and Old Snake (Akio Otsuka) are real life father and son.
(they made up before Chiako Otsuka passed away)
What about the Gravemind cut scene from halo 2?!
Top ten most iconic video game voice actors, or performances
My personal favorite is when Geralt finally reunited with Ciri in Witcher 3
This video should be labeled spoiler city. Goddamn Watch Mojo
Metal Solid Franchise is a movie as always
I wish you gave bad ending from the witcher 3 wild hunt to the list because this ending fits too perfect to the tone of the story of witcher 3
Lots of good one's were missing and some of these weren't even that great... The ff16 had far greater cutscenes, like the fight of ifrit and the phoenix... And lets be honest, the OG Aerith's death not being here is disappointing to say the least.
I love cutscene movies
"People Don't Forget, Nothing Gets Forgiven"
Red Dead Redemption 1
Last of us had the scene of Joel running from the hopsital with Ellie in my hand for me
0:20 what is the theme called?
Mass Effect 3’s chosen cutscene should be the full Sword Fleet arrival. The culmination of the trilogy.
It should be Mordin
kojima master of classic
Man u should have atleast put the confrontation between Nishiki and Kiryu in Yakuza 0 as an honourable mention man.
It's criminal for not have Super Smash Bros Brawl in here.
Makarov's death MW3 deserves a place here as well!!
Red Dead Redemption 2 was the peak of gaming. Have no idea how God of War won Game of the Year that year. Not even close to Red Dead
Nothing from Dragon Age: Inquisition? 😕 Between the hymn in the wilderness, and "Your leader! Your Herald! Your INQUISITOR!", if you're not emotionally wrecked by the time you retake control of your character to get your first look at Skyhold, I don't know what to tell you.
Kratos vs Baldur opening
That og Peter Parker model was so much better
No Turret Opera from Portal 2???!
Did Sam Lake really compose the song to the live action musical?
Should've added Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, and any of the Kingdom Hearts trilogy to this list.
Was Ludwig's transformation too short?
We're just not gonna mention the Sonic Unleashed opening. Ok.
I thought the sword fight in Uncharted 4 was the greatest scene in the game
Every time I see Arthur Morgan die I cry 😭
Onimusha 3 was the one
Not one cutscene by blur studios makes this list an absolute joke. If you had said story cutscenes or something, sure ok. But there is no one that makes anything close to the cinema that they have consistently.
I was genuinely floored by the closing cinematic to diablo 4, after not much caring for the game. It honestly should have won best animated short.
How come the Dark Souls opening cinematic is not here?
Bring back the numbering system
Fallout 4 opening cutscene
Wheres Venom listening to the man who sold the world tape?
Eh metal gear solid got a lot of places on this list so I can't be too upset
The fact that 16 is the only Final Fantasy game that made this list is insane
Well it had spider man, batman Arkham city so not all choices were correct
Was that thumbnail really necessary? Fucking smoothbrains
