Lighting the marijuana fields on fire in Far Cry 3, with Skrillex blasting at full volume, with the enemies firing back while you get high on the fire yourself caused. Doesn't get more cathartic than that.

I'm surprised no mission from The Witcher 3 made it into this list! I mean, this game has so many iconic quests and questlines (the Isle of mist, the man with the black pearl, the different questlines to determine the ruler of Skellige, the Carnal Sins quest with the serial killer, the whole Bloody Baron questline, and so many others) though I truly believe the wedding scene from Hearts of Stone can rival any from this top 10 just for the pure creativity and sheer brilliance of the writing.

[@andrijarazum9796]

I honestly believe most of the witcher side-quests can be compared to these missions and still hold up. CDPR did such a good job with giving us creative and interesting side-quests that are (sometimes) better than the main quest lol.

Agree. Gaunter O’Dimm is one of the best written villains in media as well. When he stopped time and plunged the spoon in that guy’s eye for interrupting him. Realizing that Gaunter was with you during the whole main game. Learning who or what Gaunter O’ Dimm was. Gaunter O’ Dimm spelling GOD, but he being the man of mirrors means his the mirror image of God, which makes him evil incarnate. Yeah, the whole story about Gaunter is some of the best storytelling and character building in a game or media ever.

[@mordecaipandora5647]

Glad someone said it, The baron's questline in TW3 is some of the most engaging content in any video game ever. The fact that there's no "right answer" forces you to make tough decisions in a way that 999/1000 games are too afraid to touch.

[@bobhill3941]

[@tylerwatson9079]

Red Dead Redemption 2. The mission where the gang assaults Braithwaite manor. Seeing the gang members ride their horses down the narrow road with the drumbeat in the background, followed by the gang members walking up to the house side by side and armed to the teeth was fantastic, and will never fail to give me goosebumps

[@alwayswrite2011]

"Horizon Zero Dawn: The Heart of the Nora." For all of us who wonder what our purpose in life may be, Aloy gets a clear and distinct answer. Her emotional state of that revelation, and then to become "The Anointed" after being shunned her entire life is powerful stuff. The follow-up, "The Mountain That Fell," is also up there, when she learns the true fate of those who led the effort to save mankind. I always find that scene in the meeting room rather haunting.

[@Dutch_fellow]

Horizon zero dawn got me emotional sometimes. That scene was one of them

[@MikeCincoCapas]

I agree big time on this! As I progressed through that game, it felt like I was a time traveler, discovering what could happen to us in the future due to our ever-increasing dependence on technology. And the amazing gameplay just kept you on your toes.

[@DsgSleazy]

Damn...I felt absolutely none of this while playing that mission or game lmao.

[@blueblaze5160]

While it’s not necessarily a traditional “mission”, I think that the finale of Dark Carnival on L4D2 is an iconic mission. Killing hordes of zombies in a stadium with your own personal concert going on while waiting for a helicopter is absurdly epic, and really makes you feel like a badass the entire time.

[@Scroolewse]

I'm not sure if anyone's commented it, but 'No Russian' from COD MW2. Enough said. This mission was so shocking and incredibly controversial at the time.

Lots of great moments in that game. Just comforting Judy after Evelyn kills herself - a mission where you don't really do anything other than listen and say a few words here and there - is something that's gonna stay with me forever. It's just so heartbreaking. Also in Panam's questline, when you're at the campfire with the Nomads, and they raise a glass to Scorpion, and Panam adds "and to Jackie" - that was really touching. Honestly Panam's entire questline is full of great moments. And the gig, where you get Samurai back together. Incredible. So many great moments in that game. It's a shame so many people are missing out on it because of a botched launch and terrible marketting

[@miguelgdfl7443]

@@RuptimusPrime The mission when you get Samurai back together is seriously one of the best missions I've ever played. The entire buildup and then seeing Johnny playing the guitar with his friends.

@@Catman-san the suicide mission is fantastic. Don't get me wrong, I loved many missions in ME3 such as Tuchanka and Rannoch but ME2's ending is god-tier gaming.

The ending for red dead redemption has been stuck in my mind since i first played it, really great ending and the revenge aftermath just adds to it. Plenty of memorable levels from metal arms glitch in the system that i personally won't forget. For me the most memorable mission on halo ce is 343 guilty spark, although that game had tons of memorable moments and missions. The ending of two betrayals is my favourite part in the entire franchise. Doom e1m1, not necessarily my favourite level but it was a great entry into the series. Return to castle Wolfenstein : X-labs, if there's one mission that has been stuck on my mind for years it's X-labs. It has some really good action and moments

[@SkyeBerryJam]

Halo 3 ending. I had never played a halo game before and that mission for it's time was like nothing I had ever seen, driving away as the whole world around you collapsed, with the most epic music. 10/10

The first mission of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. The soundtrack, the Metal Gear Ray you have to attack, it's all just *chef's kiss* 10/10.

[@TimDownsAnimation]

For another HL2 entry, I’d pick the hunter/civil protection ambush in Episode 2. The one where you’re cornered into a two story house while waves of soldiers are giving cover fire for the hunters who are most certainly HUNTING you and Alyx as they try to break into the house. The first time I played that mission, it all played out SO cinematically and cool. I felt the fear of knowing “oh no. They’re inside” and trying to dodge and outrun them in such a tight space while getting fired at by the storm trooper dudes outside. Just so dang cool

[@Scroolewse]

The helicopter chase scene was one of my favorites. And as goofy as it was the mission where you control the lion ants was fun as fuck.

I loved the Dam and the Facility levels in Goldeneye too. I played them and the boat level the most. Locomotion was an awesome level. It's definitely the thing I remember most about Uncharted 2, along with the opening chapter.

[@Jpilgrim30]

Titanfall 2 had some of the best platforming ever. I had a blast just traversing through levels.

[@ramsathasivam9747]

The wonder tower mission from Batman Arkham city. It starts off with protocol 10 (helicopters flying around the city and shooting missiles) to fighting your way through the wonder tower as you scale to Hugo strange. Such a wonderful view too.

[@TorturedMongoose2003]

I agree.

[@danielharrington4297]

The most memorable missions I can think of right now. Is the Cyberpunk 2077 side mission. Where you up that prisoner to crucify himself.

[@Docta_Tma]

Hell yeah, "Do Not pursue Lu Bu" was so fun but hard AF. In one of the other games in the Dynasty games my bro and I played co-op as higher-end characters and we still barely beat him!! As always what a great job Gameranx!!

[@MehranHayati885]

Half life 2 had an unforgotable relation with my childhood,an especial unique emotion always come to me when I revisit every individual scenses of it specially last mision tower climbing and explosion and THE QUESTION. I think for a mission and for a game to be legend there is wanted more than what that game really is. It's about SITUATION and FEELINGS you were experienced on that specific time.

[@SixGunQuota]

The library in halo is probably the greateat mission fighting the flood for the first time. Idk not a halo fan boy, but it was epic the first time I played it.

[@smoke2420]

It's amazing that just the right scenario/background music can make a mission or even traveling in a game THAT MUCH BETTER

[@swianr]

Far cry 3 Payback, the mission where you go after Vaas was legendary and such a trip

[@gameranxTV]

👍🏼 For Part 2.

[@juansofly3916]

It's an emotional ride

[@officialnucky]

For me Bunker 2 is the one that sticks in my mind for Goldeneye. It was literally the hardest mission of a game I think I've ever played (when on 00 Agent difficulty). It gave the greatest sense of achievement when you finally did it, but man did it punish you

[@samicourie2043]

This should be a series, you can find tons of legendary missions in video games, on the top of my head, Kratos returning to get the chaos blades, Ori's Misty Wood, Nier Automata has a bunch of them, Ashtray Maze in Control, Unavowed when you play with the real antagonist, Dead Space 2's returning to Ishimura. Another List :D

[@lunarjellyfish5538]

Read Dead Revolver, the last few missions are some of the most memorable. Defending a train assault, then a battle royale to get into the big baddies mansion, then a huge fight through the mansion. That whole bit was peak gameplay.

[@HelterSeltzer_the_one]

What Mass Effect 2 did very well is that you feel like an ACTUAL Commander. Everything builds up to the suicide mission and how the game ends. That mission is such a payoff and I love it.

[@arefrigerator396]

My legendary mission is an escape and run mission in Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth (Original Xbox). You lock doors in your hotel room and go to sleep. You're awoken by locals banging on your door and what comes next is a scary intense sequence of barricading doors, run, jumping out windows, running while avoiding getting shot through windows and corridors. It's so intense, scary, the music the sounds the shouting and the fact your character panics, gets blurred vision as he becomes more panicked. Aaaand if you sustain injuries to your legs he'll limp, slowing your pace. Highly recommended.

[@evilkangaroo]

Thanks for reminding me of these missions I FORGOT about!

[@crimsonraen]

Thanks for the video y'all! So great seeing so many awesome nostalgic missions!

[@Tasla1]

Far Cry 1. The enviromental dome blew me away. Though the aircraftcarrier in the lagoon was fun too. The bloody baron mission(s) in witcher 3 were emotional rolercoaster rides.

Falcon putting in work the past two weeks with all these vids. Thank you for keeping me entertained!

You guys need to make it an entire series. There are many other missions/quests you could have talked about. Also, I feel like old CRPG would have deserved several mentions here : I can think about half a dozen secondary quests in Fallout 2, the main plot in Planescape: Torment, Arcanum's final quest... Can't wait for the second episode of it (and the third, the fourth, etc.). Keep it up !

[@Mustafa_9628]

The mission with BT throwing you in the air or the one with time manipulation Both deserves a spot here

[@travisspazz1624]

It's more of a low key mission in RDR2, but Arthur and Sadie taking out O'Driscolls and then Sadie spilling her guts afterwards. It made me want Sadie for RDR3!!

[@lizardguyNA]

I was hoping you'd mention the final stage of Lego City: Undercover. I mean, not only are you in friggin space, you end the whole thing jump out of a collapsing space station and to the earth. Yes, in a Lego game.

[@purplerain6260]

KnightFall from the original BattleFront 2 is just so amazing. Getting to experience order 66 from the clones perspective was so awesome. Also the intro narration is incredible.

[@MikeCincoCapas]

As far as HALO goes, I'm still partial to AOTCR right after The Silent Cartographer. I must have played that mission a hundred times because you start in the middle of nowhere and battle across a huge map, with I'm pretty sure every vehicle in the game at that point (Ghost to Warthog to Tank to Banshee) - it was just the perfect amalgamation of that first game. And then, of course, Two Betrayals, when you do pretty much that whole mission in reverse with the flood hunting you down, too.

[@T1NF01L]

I love the videos you guys put out but the mass effect 2 segment made me think you should do another video of rpgs where choices can truly change the outcome of the game. One of my favorites that comes to mind is Suikoden. The first two specifically but going into wars and having attacks fail which in turn may or may not kill some important characters was amazing. I can't count how many times I reloaded just to keep certain favorite characters alive.

[@jeremygibbs7342]

Great choice on the Cartographer level. I absolutely loved every mission of Halo CE, but Cartographer Definitely put all the best parts together. And let's be honest, mini D-day invasion on the beach right off the start is absolutely exhilarating.

[@hunterdelikowski]

The Witcher 3 - Blood and Wine featured several of the coolest levels I’ve ever played. From when Beauclair was being ravaged by vampires, to when Geralt is in the comical fairytale land… that DLC is arguably some of the best DLC ever produced.

[@davidvader8723]

What level do you have to be to play blood and wine??? Like do you have to beat the game first. I remember I bought it but was too low leveled to play and kinda gave up???

[@synthrogue6856]

@@davidvader8723 You can start Blood and Wine as a standalone game with a pre-levelled Geralt they built for you to jump straight in. It's been a while since I've played but I used my main game Geralt after completing the game and had no problem progressing but I have no idea what level I was but I want to say I was somewhere in the 30s.

[@AndrewsYoutube]

Honorable mention to 'Fallout 3'. It had two potentially iconic quests. - The first being the final mission, 'Take it back!', where you fight along side a battle mech to take back the Jefferson Memorial, and then have to make that controversial choice at the end (unless you have the 'Broken Steel' DLC installed). - Or 'Tranquility Lane', which is my personal favorite. Either one.

[@bumble3572]

1st mission of Homeworld. The chilling realisation that they are not alone in the universe, and the following mission when they return to Karak. Coupled with the artistic cutscenes and the voice acting, so much feels. Bonus points for the levels in the nebula, and what you are forced to do there. So many amazingly done levels, one of the best games ever made, hands down
