I had the white box show up in Spider-Man 2 during one of the last boss fights. I finished the fight and it went into the cut scene where Miles and Peter were now both white boxes swinging through the city. Pretty funny but I was worried if I re-loaded I'd have to repeat the boss fight. The cut scene ended up crashing and I loaded the game and it started up right at the cut scene and everything looked great. I loved Insomniac for giving me that safety net with the auto-save right between the fight and the cut scene.

I know there are a few days left for it to get dethroned, but it'll be hard to top. Similarly, the best horror movie from the 80s I saw for the first time this season was Re-Animator, in case you decide to go with an 80s movie.
