WARNING: BURNING RANGERS SPOILERS. If you care about spoilers for an obscure 25 year old video game, turn away!
You've probably never played this game, and you may never. If not, please, imagine the following for a moment.
You've been playing this game for many hours. You're in the final level, the game is explicit in that. It's been a 3D platformer where you've been jumping around burning facilities putting out fires and rescuing civilians. But the last level has been different, because now you're alone. You're cut off from the rest of your squad, and as the final revelations of the plot come in to view,it lookslike you're not gonna make it. This burning space station will be your doom...
And then, your squad comes in and teleports you to their ship. They're here with you, and together, you're gonna STOP this! And so, you're suddenly flying down a collapsing corridor in an exploding space station, making your way deeper, into the core. And as you go, this music plays.
This kind of moment in video games, a sudden FUCK YES moment, I LIVE for that shit, when your blood is pumping, your skin begins to tingle, you feel like you're about to SCREAM, like you're actually there, careening through the tunnels through raging fire.
God, I love video games. Check out Burning Rangers sometime, if you can.
