6* Overlapping with Awesome/VideoGameLevels is picking up an ex-KG gunship that's been painted blue and apparently [[TookALevelInBadass severely enhanced]], flying it ''solo'' against a '''flying War Factory with its own army of defensive drones and turret tanks''', and then proceeding to wreak havoc throughout said factory, beat the boss within, and then teleport out as the ''entire fortress'' plummets from the skies [[NoEndorHolocaust without apparently damaging the city]].
7* In ''VideoGame/JakIIRenegade'', you pick up a seal piece from the far end of water town, and the KG moves in. Your objective is to get out, and you ''will'' tear your way through dozens of Krimsons to do it. It is entirely possible to JET-board your way to safety and not hit a single KG on your way out, but of course that's not nearly as awesome.
8* Jak loading up Mar's gun and blasting open the nest, together with a short but awesome PreAssKickingOneLiner: "Stone. Gun. Nest!"
9* Villainous example: Kor when he reveals himself. After he has manipulated the Underground and lowered the shields, he easily defeats Praxis and his guards in a single hit, proving himself to be the smarter and stronger villain of the two.
10** Later, Jak gets one of his own as he faces the monster he was sent in the past to be ready for, and who has killed Praxis and captured his past self. While he has some trouble once Kor gets serious, he still wins and claims Kor's head.
11* In ''VideoGame/Jak3Wastelander'', Count Veger's karmic punishment. He wanted to become a Precursor, so he got his wish... as an Ottsel.
12* Jak leaping off the Dark Maker ship and taking Cyber Errol with him in ''VideoGame/Jak3Wastelander''. Unfortunately, Errol shakes him off easily and [[JetPack flies to safety]], while it seems Jak is done for. Daxter, meanwhile, is being sucked into a hole and will probably be dead pretty soon as well. Suddenly, [[OurAngelsAreDifferent Light Jak]] flies back up, catches Daxter in the nick of time, and hightails it out of there. All the while everything around them is ''coming apart at the seams''.
13* After escaping from the Dark Maker ship, Jak and Daxter land close to one of the signature cars of the game, and are told to shoot down the giant Mecha that's heading for Spargus City. When it's down, Jak ''climbs up the side'' and proceeds to kick Errol's ass into next week.
14** And for added effect, the entire battle is set to some of the most awesome music in the entire series.
15* Pecker setting up an EngineeredPublicConfession on the BigBad in ''Jak X'' is pretty satisfying.
16* Grabbing the Light Eco in ''[[VideoGame/JakAndDaxterThePrecursorLegacy The Precursor Legacy]]''. Once he does, with Maia screaming at Gol to do something, Jak ''destroys the giant robot with one shot.''
