* [[spoiler: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14pQ5B0iTUs Andrew Ryan's death.]] He knows he is going to die either way, so he decides to go out the way he chooses to. "[[IronicEcho A man chooses ...]]"]]
* A Big Daddy giving [[spoiler: Suchong his awesomely appropriate KarmicDeath.]] You get a front row seat in ''Infinite: Burial At Sea''.
* Steinman, before the boss battle with him. He's in the middle of doing his "surgery" on an hapless splicer when he notices you. His response? Instead of cowering behind some elite minions like most bosses in video games do, he gets pissed, picks up a tommy gun and fires at the window you're looking through.
* Holding off an army of Ryan's splicers while the Lazarus Vector cooks in Langham's lab.
** Followed by TheReveal that [[spoiler:Frank Fontaine's was the mastermind behind ''the entire thing'']] definitely counts as well, and instantly seals his spot as a MagnificentBastard. While many such Bastards are indeed Magnificent, not very many have sold themselves as such within the first ''minute'' of their entry into the story. Just three words: "''[[spoiler:Would you kindly?]]''"
*** The part where he [[spoiler:pretends that his family is aboard a bathysphere that Ryan blows up, just to fuel the player's motivation against Ryan.]]
*** Except [[spoiler:Ryan didn't even acknowledge the sub or any of its passengers. He only states his intention to kill ''you'', a key pawn in Frank Fontaine's EvilPlan, and it is Atlas, Fontaine's alias, who was last seen fiddling with the sub controls. Fontaine more likely rigged the sub to explode beforehand in preparation for Jack's return to Rapture. He ''is'' a MagnificentBastard, after all.]]
* Setting Sander Cohen's Quadytch ''on fire'' after finishing it. And, when [[spoiler:Cohen goes ballistic, killing him and getting the Irony achievement for snapping a picture of his corpse]].
* [[SceneryPorn Then there's the beginning of the game with the entry into Rapture]]. Everything goes to pot once you get there, but your first look at the undersea city is downright breathtaking.
-->"I chose the impossible. I chose... ''Rapture''".
* Try looking just up above the first Little Sister you can save or harvest. "The great shall not be constrained by the small," indeed...
* The scene where Sander Cohen [[spoiler:thinks you're mocking his masterpiece and sends several Splicers after you]] while Waltz of the Flowers plays. It's such an incredible scene. Seriously, try not to be amazed when [[spoiler:you whack a Splicer and they go twirling off to the side as if it's some grotesque ballet]]. And the fact that Sander shouts out [[spoiler: "Fly, little moth. Fly!" and "Smile! SMILE!" like it really IS a grotesque ballet]] makes it all the more better.
* It is possible to engineer a situation in which two Big Daddies fight to the death while a Little Sister is standing in the background shouting "Hit him, Mr. B!" Doing requires that you die with a vita-chamber close enough for you to run back and watch the action after your resurrection, but it's well worth it.
** Or save enough Little Sisters to get the Hypnotize Big Daddy plasmid, use it on one Daddy, then find a second with a Little Sister, shoot the Sister's BD with one bullet, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2gNzQaAwTs watch the chaos.]]
* Anytime you manage to kill a Big Daddy with one well-executed plan in one fell swoop definitely counts, considering the scarcity of ammo and the sheer toughness of the guys.
* The EstablishingCharacterMoment for Big Daddies. A Little Sister screaming for help when attacked by a Splicer prompts her respective Big Daddy to charge in. The Splicer tries shooting it with a revolver, but the bullets bounce off its suit, and when he tries to run away it [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill smacks him into a wall, uses its drill to punch a hole in him when he gets back up, then grabs him by the head and repeatedly slams him against the floor,]] and actually sends him through a window made of bullet proof glass.
