    The little things in life

    I was playing tf2 recently as a sniper and suddenly noticed that my arrow was on fire. Turns out friendly pyros can light them for you. And that just made me feel warm and happy - a minor thing that's just fun and cool.

    So lets hear your stories of things in games that made you go "wow, that's cool/funky/sick/etc". I am more interested in the little things which didn't have to be there but the developers went "wouldn't it be cool if" and stuck it in.
    Tough on mirrors, tough on the causes of mirrors.

    Probably not what your looking for but:

    Levelling my first character to 60 in Wow, way back in 2005, i don't think i've had that same feeling in any other game since.

    There have been many, but the swing glitch on GTA when playing with friends online is just quality.

    Come to think of it, GTA IV online was full of "wow" moments.....

    Doesn't matter what game,
    whenever there's a twitching dead body it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside

    Re: The little things in life

    I can remember playing plenty of games and thinking the same thing, but not many really come to mind.

    In Metal Gear Solid 2, you can kiss the posters of naked woman inside the lockers. I always found that hilarious. There's so many little easter eggs in that game, such as the guy taking a dump you can hear with the directional mic. The guy taking a whizz off the side and Raidens disgust when he walks under it. Taking a picture up a hostages skirt, then phoning Campbell and listening to Rose getting really annoyed and telling you to throw away the picture.

    There's so many more but I can't think right now.
