Final Fantasy 13, a few moments ago.
Boy that game sucked, gameplay was awful, story was nonsensical, half the cast was annoying (well, to be fair, they did redeem themselves bar one), cutscenes were abysmal half the time, awful script and uh well, that's about it.
Everything else about the game was fucking great, it had amazing environments, an amazing cast (bar half) and of course INCREDIBLE MUSIC.
I was legit blown away by the set pieces and music in this game, it was such a shame they fucked with everything else because they were the best part of the game.
My favourite moment happened in Chapter 8 when two characters (both my favourites, since they're upbeat and fun characters in this world) decide they're going to do the opposite of Lightning (which was to follow her Focus and destroy Cocoon (long story)) but anyhow they decide to go to Nautilus, which was a city that had a theme park in it and a majority of the chapter is just running around a theme park trying to forget their troubles.
Then suddenly, you're running around a Chocobo Zoo and it's a very cute and wholesome experience and out of nowhere the small chocobo chick you have flies away into the other Chocobo's and you have to find it, while this amazing song plays.
It honestly put the biggest smile on my face, it was such a fucking cool moment and the best part of the game in my eyes, you were just getting bombarded with so much audio and visuals it was incredible. The scene in question
Such a shame a majority of the game was bad though, gameplay is awful and boring so I skipped many fights, big mistake since it meant I was stuck grinding for 3-5 hours to level everyone back up.
Now I've just got FF15 to finish and I'll have finished all mainline, non sequel, non mmo Final Fantasy games in under a year.
