* In ''Defender'', the activation of the Hanging Waters is truly awe-inspiring. The music doesn't hurt at all.
* For as contentious as the Genesis games may be, the one thing everyone can agree on is they are by far ''the'' most atmospheric games on the Genesis/Mega Drive. That alone is worth praise, as the era they came out in made such a task especially difficult.

* Trapping the great shark in ''Perils of the Coral Reef''.
* Racing through the volcanic geyser in ''Up and Down''. It's filled with falling rocks, spouts of sulfur, and painfully hot water that ''will'' kill Ecco if he doesn't reach powerups, but he makes it. It ends with him being propelled into the sky on a huge spray of water, landing in one of the most peaceful areas in the game.
* After the enslaved dolphins in ''Man's Nightmare'' receive their Intelligence back, they don't despair from their newfound awareness of their situation. Instead, they charge after Ecco, doing everything they can to prevent the coming apocalypse.
* A Resistance member in ''Anguish of Dearth'' navigates the floral equivalent of invisible lasers to reach an enemy outpost.
* Ecco infiltrating the Clan base, breaking all three levels of its security with no tools and no allies.
** Props also go to the ''[[TheGuardsMustBeCrazy one]] Clan dolphin who realizes what Ecco's doing and doesn't stop pursuing him whatever mark of rank Ecco fakes. Everyone else grovels before the obvious outsider once he gets a level-three tattoo.
* The activation of the Hanging Waters is truly awe-inspiring, especially the accompanying music.

No meta example, see this query.


* On a meta level, ''Defender'' is an absolutely ''gorgeous'' game to look at, even today. It's also often considered one of the only games of its era to actually have good controls for swimming.

I.... don't think that's ana wesome moment


* Also for ''Defender'', the realization, or [[RetroactiveRecognition revelation]], that Creator/TomBaker was TheNarrator. [[Series/DoctorWho Some tropers]] were just tickled to find this out.

* Pretty much any song you care to name has its followers.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAQaU1FOXts&fmt=18 St. Gabriel's Mask]] from ''Tides of Time'' CD.
** There's also the official [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5D5dvR4OooE vocal remix]].
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JQ-Hi43pnc Convergence]] from ''Tides of Time'' Genesis. It's a medley of several major themes in the game, including [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m96313aBmDM Trellia's Bay]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QousDdXrjWo Moray Abyss]], awesome songs in their own right. Really a shame the only two times you hear it can be short enough to miss out on the whole song.
* The CD version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsESkFPkefk Fin to Feather]] is ''flight in song form''.
