** He gets another in the sequel, shooting at two Militia on his way to rescue Cole from Bertrand's trap.
* In the first game, just after you turn on the last substation, you find out that this mission is a little different: you need to power up some older substations that are above ground to restore power. The problem is they take forever to charge up, you have to stand right near them, and the First Sons are doing their damnedest to kill you and destroy them. But who ''cares''? You've just gained the ability to rain '''''ultra-destructive lightning storms from the sky'''''! And the best part? The substations ''constantly'' supply power to you while you stand on top of them. It's the closest the game comes to a CurbStompBattle, and you take out more bad guys in five minutes than you do in all of the third act.
* Any time the citizens of Empire City join in to help heroic Cole during one of his fights. They may only be able to throw rocks, but they will throw rocks with the passion of people who have had enough devastation and oppression from the marauding gangs.

* The [[spoiler: final mission of ''VideoGame/{{inFamous}} 2'' if you choose the good mission. The hopelessly outgunned Rebels and [[HeelFaceTurn Militia]] will fight and cheer you on as you go to activate the RFI.]]
** Later in the same mission, [[spoiler:Cole fully charges the RFI, jacking his power up to new levels. Instead of activating it, he says "Not yet" and leaps out of the church before flying at The Beast and unleashing all his fury on him, bringing him down for good.

* Taking down the Behemoth. The epic music, combined with the slow motion of meleeing the Swamp Monsters and the all around awesomeness of taking down something that big.
* Awesome but for all the wrong reasons. In the bad ending, Zeke [[spoiler: despite knowing he stands no chance in hell, still stands against his best friend. "I gotta try", proving that he despite all the stuff he may have done in the first game, he really is a hero and the game makers showing that if you really choose this path, then you deserve the title "the beast"]]
