* The ending cutsene. After flying a nuclear bomb off the coast of New York and causing it to detonate in the water surrounding the island, Alex lays in pieces on the outskirts of the city. A crow attempts to eat his remains, only to be promptly consumed as Alex's mutilated body rebuilds itself FromASingleCell, proving that he has become NighInvulnerable. And he still has [[SequelHook things to take care of]].

* All of the amazing gameplay feats that you can do in this superhero-like OpenWorld game:
** Performing a homing flying kick towards helicopters. This action is memorable enough that it achieved AscendedMeme status amongst critics and even in the sequel. Or with the Whipfist power, you can hook yourself into a helicopter and hijack it mid-flight.
** The Thermobaric Tank has a unique mechanic that fires off shots similar to tactical warheads. What's awesome is that the shot's visual effect is also accompanied by the game being temporarily filtered in monochrome and that you can notice the explosion from afar.
** The Devastators, along with their slow-mo and camera panning effects that just showcases utter destruction all around you.
** The game zooms in every time you consume enemies, with the aftereffect of having you watch as the poor victim turns into biomass that gets slowly absorbed inside Alex's body. You can do this as much as you like in crowded areas, provided you are not interrupted by the military.
** The [[DeathFromAbove air-to-ground moves]] that Alex can perform, especially if done from a high tower or building, as they will cause a massive shockwave on your way down.

Badass is no longer a trope.


* The mere fact that Blackwatch soldiers have a melee attack (and it does decent damage, too!). Picture this: you've just seen an unstoppable [[HumanoidAbomination monster]] chop up tanks and throw around your buddies like ragdolls. He is now in your face, ready to tear you apart. What do you do? Do you run? Do you hide? Do you scream, beg for mercy? If you're the kind of {{badass}} you need to be to join Blackwatch, the answer is none of the above. You instead ''[[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu whack said monster]] [[DefiantToTheEnd in the face]]''.
