What moments have made you think "oh man, this is going to be awesome!" This isn't so much about which parts were the funnest, but those moments when you get to see or do something that you think is going to be super cool. (Bonus points for those of you who remember being super excited about something that turned out to suck)(And more bonus points for having a play by play of what you were thinking)

Mega Man X3
A minute or so into the first level X meets up with one of his old comrade who *gasp* turns out to be a traitor and captures X and beams out. The screen keeps panning along to the next room and sits there for a few seconds and I'm thinking "ok, so now what?".
Cue awesome theme music and Zero breaks in through the roof. "OMG! I get to play as Zero now! Best game ever!" Too bad it only lasted for about a minute or two of the first level until I saved X.

Chrono Trigger
Magus actual joined my party?! Sweet.

Eh, I though I had more but they all kind of evaporated between the two threads.
Megaman X3 hint: Pause the game, and press one of the shoulder buttons. It should open up a comm system that lets you call out Zero. You can switch between Zero and X on almost any level, though only X can fight bosses. During one mini-boss fight, in fact, something special will happen to Zero, if you are playing as him...

And, yeah, Zero was awesome in that game. As was his theme music.
