20 Best Video Game Moments Of The Decade (So Far)

1. The Death Of The Joker - Batman: Arkham City

You've heard of the 'shot heard round the world'? Well this - to fans of any pop-culture entertainment property, Batman, comics, video games or just time-tested story-lines in general - was the scene that shocked the world. The Joker, Batman's nemesis for 75-odd years, finally died, in a sequence that retained the motives of both characters perfectly. Batman didn't have to kill the Clown Prince, and Joker's love of messing with Batman was his ultimate downfall, not to mention ending on him getting the last laugh, but not in the way he would've wanted. Following an entire game of hunting for a cure for Joker's self-induced TITAN-related illness, Batman has his hands on the cure, only for Joker to stab him and cause it all to spill out. The two of them trade words as Joker accepts his fate, but asks if Batman was really going to save him just to allow for more mayhem to continue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=up7jPJXq-RY Batman replies that he would've done, to which Joker's last line is one for the history books; "That actually is... pretty funny" What are you favourite moments from across the last 5 years?
