I can't think of a game that had something on an emotional level like that. I mean, I've had movies and TV Shows (generally finales) that made me teary-eyed; however, no video game just yet. Metal Gear Solid 4 was pretty close; though.

Infamous 2, almost. Metal Gear Solid 4 (pretty much when everyone started to bite it, particularly Big Boss) and Valkyria Chronicles (ISARAAAA!)
Infamous 2?? Oh no, I'm near the end! :(

I've seriously never cried at a game and find that really weird as it seems to be normal for at least ONE game to make you cry many tears. Not even the Metal Gear Solid series. Am I broken?

Final Fantasy X was hard to finish and so was Crisis Core. Square can really be hit or miss.

Heavy Rain had some pretty powerful moments too.

I'd have to say that the end of Minecraft was pretty tear jerking.

OT: Shadow of the Colossus's end was pretty bad:
A group of people find the city and notice that you have been used by the guy that speaks to you. You then turn into a zombie, to result in getting stabbed in fear by the people.
This doesn't quite kill you, you turn into a colossus that has only one aim, kill the people that killed you. The technique here is amazing, it allows you to experience what all the other Collossi did, and to alsmost empathise with them. They were only doing what they thought was best

Portal 2, the second time, when I found out what the lyrics to the turret song mean. For some reason, it just did D:
Yeah, it was awesome the first time I saw it, the second time when I actually knew what the words meant it was really moving.
What do they mean? I never thought to look it up or anything.
Here is the actual lyrics to the song.

Cara bella, cara mia bella!
Mia bambina, o ciel! [pun: Chell = It. "Ciel" = Sky"]
Ché la stimo...
Ché la stimo.
O cara mia, addio!

La mia bambina cara,
perché non passi lontana?
Sì, lontana da Scïenza, [personified]
cara, cara mia bambina?
Ah, mia bella!
Ah, mia cara!
Ah, mia cara!
Ah, mia bambina!
O cara, cara mia...


Here is the translation:
Dear beautiful, my beautiful darling!
My child, oh Chell! [pun: "oh heavens!"]
For I hold her in esteem...
For I hold her in esteem.
Farewell to my dear!

My dear girl,
why do you not walk away?
Yes, away from Science,
my dear, my dear girl?
Ah, my beautiful!
Ah, my dear!
Ah, my dear!
Ah, my child!
Oh dear, my dear...

If you play the game fully and understand most of it, a lot of this can evolve into theories.

I actually cried when in FF7 that love interest girl dies.

Sorry guys. I still think that the FF games are awesome.
........ =_= really? i just got finished explaining to someone why everything about the FF series sucks. all of those characters are cut and paste shallow anime characters with anime reactions to everything.

go try Mafia 2 when joe's kid friend dies.
Haha don't worry! We all have different tastes, and I'm happy that it is so.
I happen to like anime characters, and think that the vast majority of western games (and the characters within) are bland and boring, with some shining exceptions of course. But I kinda dislike western games so I will probably not try it.

All respect to you though, and a toast for different tastes! *sip*

The ending narrations of Dynasty Warriors 5 were brilliantly done and brought a tear to my eye when I first saw them.

The narrators voice, theway he delivers the lines, the music, the atmosphere and the way it ends are all just done so well.

If only they worked more on character pronunciation.

Yeah. I remember not accepting her death for days, while looking everywhere for a way to get her back and generally not caring about the story or the other characters very much.

Probably the best role playing I've ever done in a game ever. *group hug*
Yeah. I, too, was obsessed with bringing her back. I believed every rumor (I had no internet back then) and have even dreamed of a possibility to revive her while I was on vacation (in Sweden btw) not being able to try out my idea :D

FF VII was my first RPG and still is one of my favorites^^

Games that came close:

FFXII: For the worst reason possible--it didn't emotionally touch me but that the ending was just so downright bland that I nearly cried over the fact that "I WASTED 80 HOURS FOR THIS?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!"

Seiken Densetsu 3: The character endings with Religion Thunder playing = pretty moving.

Starwish: who ever thought a FLASH GAME could be emotionally riveting? Play this one ASAP!

I ..... I....i have no idea how to react to that. there's a difference between 'a difference of opinions' and 'give respect where respect is due'

ummmmmmmmmm.......I haven't cried in years....And no game/book/movie has ever made me cry.

Although looking at everyone's reactions in Majora's mask on the night of the 3rd day was depressing to the point that I literally said "OMG OMG OMG...I just...I have to rewind this...I HAVE to fix this...it's...it's too much". And The ending for Shadow of the collosus made me feel really sad...

But never cry. I only cry when I am in serious pain.

Indeed.
When I first tried the Death Knight class in Wrath of the Lich King, I came across a quest telling me to go and execute a captured Night Elf (I was playing a Night Elf Death Knight and therefore had to kill the Nigh Elf). WhenI got into the little house with all the prisoners, I walked up and out of nowhere the night elf told this story about the characters childhood and ho I used to be, which honestly made me cry. I seriously whished I could walk away, or let someone else do the job.
I actually had to take a 15 min break just to cry. I never cmpleeted the quest and shortly after I deleted the Death Knight, just because I looked at her as a heartless monster.

Another vote for FFVII Crisis Core. Even though I've played the original VII so many times and I knew, knew, what was going to happen, I still couldn't help myself when it actually did.

Aeris getting killed back in 1997 did for me as well. And I also can't watch the very end of Advent Children without crying like a girl. Damn you Square!

Various bits of Dragon Age have also been known to make me sniffle. Namely Alistair sacrificing himself. I couldn't bear to watch that one.

Lost Odyssey almost got me, but I held it in. That scene where Kaim finds his daughter was the thing that almost did it for me. Nothing else in the game made me feel that way, and hardly anything in movies or games make me either, but that was just sad.

I thought I'd feel something in Gears of War 2, with Dom and Maria, but the only thing that went through my mind was "pwned", and then the party moved on.

Oh, actually The Bard's Tale got me sad when something happened to the dog. Sad and then mad, and I wanted to kill everything in the game. Poor dog.
