8 Video Game Moments That Made You Go....WHAT?!
5. Punching The Boulder - Resident Evil 5
The Resident Evil series has always been locked in an embrace with cheesy B-movie tropes ever since it shambled onto the scene back in the mid-'90s. The dialogue was corny and the voice acting left holes in the map thanks to all the scenery-chewing, but to fans of the series, this was just more for them to love.
However, things veered dramatically towards shark-jumping territory when it came to the final moments of Resident Evil 5. Now to put things into perspective, after the world was set alight with cheers for Resident Evil 4, Resi 5 had so much pressure on it to do well that it's no wonder it snapped. After all, how can you top the greatest game in the series? Well, apparently you just meme yourself hard and punch some boulders.
Yes, that's right, we're talking about the infamous moment where Chris "I swear I'm not on the juice" Redfield, punches a boulder into a lake of lava in order to rescue Sheva from Albert Wesker. It's utterly ridiculous and as has been shown by the myriad of reaction compilations on the scene, left many players howling with WTF laughter.
