What's your most epic gaming moment?

Everyone has moments in life when they achieve something so monumental they either punch the air in excitement, or they hit up a social network to brag about it. Sometimes when playing a game you'll have these moments too, and boy do they give you a rush of adrenaline.

Such an event could be pulling off an awesome grenade kill in Halo 3. It might even be placing near the top of the leaderboard on Super Meat Boy. I'd love to know yours.

My experience? I thought I was the king of the world when at age fifteen I finished the PlayStation edition of Final Doom on 'Ultra Violence'. At that point it was definitely the most hardcore gaming experience I'd had on a console, and whilst there may have been more visceral moments post-1996 it was still the most memorable for me. That might not sound so impressive now but I was using a non-Dual Shock controller folks, which is an achievement in itself for an FPS.

So, then tell us what your most epic gaming moment is.
