10 Most Cinematic Moments in Video Game History

6. Metal Gear Solid 3 - The Boss

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL0Mpoa8p_Y To be honest, Metal Gear Solid 3 plays out more as a movie than a game, however it's the final boss battle that is truly awe-inspiring. You see the battle takes place in a field full of flowers with the wind gently causing them to sway, however what makes this scene great is how well the PS2 coped with pulling this off. Leaves are falling through the air as you battle your long time mentor and as soon as the MGS 3 theme song starts to play, you really are given a treat by Konami. Watching The Boss laying down amongst the flowers begging Snake to kill her has definitely earned this scene a place on the top then cinematic moments in gaming.
