  • The fact that there's a bunch of corpses near where you meet Nick implies an Offscreen Moment of Awesome, wherein he took down an entire group of them. That's right, an untrained, unarmed normal teenager, took down an entire crowd of zombies. By himself.
  • Dad's Heroic Sacrifice at the end, and Nick encouraging Juliet to do what she has to do.
  • Pretty much every major boss sequence you come across in the game due to the sheer number of over-the-top and jaw-dropping moments in them.
    • Yes, Zed constantly shouts dirty, sexist insults at you enough to make you wince... but there's more to him than a foul-mouthed punk. His insults can actually hurt you, he throws blades at you by headbanging, and his combat strategies are pretty smart - he perches himself on towering speakers and is free to scream at you until you saw the speakers down. And once you saw him in half the second time, he turns out to be super fast... and deadly with the laser blade hidden inside his microphone.
    • Lewis Legend in particular stands out among the over-the-top fights. The fact that you're fighting a greaser-themed Badass Biker with a guitar-gun is awesome by itself, but once you knock him off his motorcycle and saw off his legs, it turns out his motorcycle can turn into a deadly elephant-themed Mini-Mecha! Then there's the fact that Lewis is a Marathon Boss: The previous bosses end in 2-3 "finishers"... Lewis goes down at 7. While this is mostly to dismantle his mech after the first finisher, even Nick comments on his ludicrous tenacity!
      Nick: Dude! Black Knight! You have no legs! Stop already!
  • The scene where Juliet's father saves her younger sister from Josey. Josey even realizes that he's reached his end.
    Josey: Funk me...
