Modern Warfare 3's Hunter Killer mission is pretty wild. Use scuba gear to plant an explosive on a submarine, get in the submarine and fight your way to the bridge, target the whole Russian fleet with the anti-ship missiles on board, and then zodiac out while the whole fleet is exploding around you. All of MW3's campaign is nutty but that mission is insane

[zRedex]

MW2019's house raid mission is probably my all time favorite.
The immersion is really on the spot.
Shows what modern gaming can do

the mission of finding jack in rdr2 is the highest peak. The scene, the gang enters the mansion, the opera is played... it's really artistically invested. Rdr2 has very nice missions.

I love the Doom Eternal Mars Core mission myself and the fact that before you teleporting to the facility that holds the BFG 10000, Samuel Hayden literally says "you can't just shoot a hole into the surface of mars" then the objective updates to "shoot a hole in mars"
It's almost comical and awesome

Farcry 3, the weed farm burning mission always sticks in my mind as one of the greatest.
Skrillex, weed, flamethrower, perfection.

The car chase mission on Uncharted 4 was unbelievable crazy set piece moment

[Scarecrwn]

Guardians of the Galaxy is such a gem, one of those games where I just lost track of time and was fully immersed into the story, characters and bizare universe. And yes, it was amazingly over the top.

The final level of halo 3 will forever be one of the wildest levels. My best friend and I played the entire campaign coop in a night and boy hitting that last mission, sleep deprived driving the warthog as the platform is exploding all around, launching into space and crashing into the hanger of your ship- so awesome!

[thevalhalla]

The infamous 'All Ghillied Up' mission is still my favorite. It has the right amount of action combined with thrill and filled with nervousness about being caught. I know it's old but it still I love it..

[jaredstangenberg]

I feel like several missions from the Just Cause series could have been contenders here.

Maybe not for quality, but for being ridiculously over the top.

[mytasus]

For me, its one of the last missions in Far Cry 3, where you have to fight on a airstrip, then save your friend, and afterwards get in a helicopter and shoot a minigun at all of the "soldiers", while the Ride of the Valkyries plays in the background. I remember that when i played it for the first time it gave me goosebumps and sent shivers down my spine. Just purely awesome.

Always happy to see Titanfall 2 on a list, to this day one of my favorite campaigns ever

[UnholyThrone]

Gotta say that I enjoy Gameranx Top 10 lists more than any other channels, Falcons just the best for these kinda videos, keep up the amazing work guys 😜🤟

[JJR]

Titanfall 2, a game where you could tell respawn wanted to give you a lightsaber and ask you to time travel into los santos and have a boss battle with blisk.

[Guymerican]

For me its the suicide mission in Mass Effect 2. I felt like thats where Sheperd's leadership was put to the test. Making sure the Normandy was fully decked out so that you can pass through the Omega-4 relay in one piece. Then selecting the right squad member for the right role in saving the Normandy crew and finally going on an all-out assault on Harbinger and the collectors. Made me really feel like I was in Sheperd's shoes. I wish I could reset my memory and play that again for the first time, it was amazing.

Not really a mission, but the maze in Control was probably one of my favorite moments in video games. Highly recommend

[leonardofelippine]

The "The Force Unleashed" games have some cool set pieces, but to me, the mission where you use the Force to crash a Star Destroyer takes the cake and could be on the list

[Beans]

I would to see a Top 10 over the top CoD missions. I've played and beat every CoD to date on veteran and it would be a nice bit nostalgia to see those crazy missions again.

[mallowman]

That one event in Force Unleashed where Starkiller takes down a star destroyer from space.
You can see the pure mass and size of the ship as it crashes down, almost flattening you with it.
SO good

Minor turbulence is an absolute classic. No doubt about it. I still have memories about it 5 years ago.
