Games that made you cry

Infamous 2 almost did. "Almost". Persona 4 on the other hand, the ending was sad but nothing compared to "that" scene. You know what I'm talking about.
Metal Gear Solid when ...
...Gray Fox is killed by Metal Gear Rex after just admitting that he was the one who killed Naomi's parents, even though he raised her and pretended to be her brother just to absolve some of his guilt.
Funnily enough Total War : Medieval 2 had me in tears at one point.. a game with little to no scripted elements managed to make me cry.. Facing a mongol hoard of over 4000 men with only 500 of my best knights, archers and lances and (played as England by the way) my valient king of the English Empire.
His opening speech was quite dramatic and basically reinforced the fact that this battle (fought over the previously Danish fortress of Settin) was going to be a deciding factor in the survival of the English Empire in Eastern Europe. The battle commenced and the walls were taken relativly quickly, the men fought for each last step towards the central plaza and almost all died in defence of the realm, my king then preceded to charge the entire mongol hoard on his own when they entered the square.. he died instantly..
His death was the most glorious thing I have seen on that game.. *sniffles*

Braid (it's ending)
Planescape: Torment
since the "rewind" part of last level (the one with the princess), which completely changes meaning of what was happening, i've got my jaw dropped and eyes wide open, through all the final "epilogue" levels, and when i got to the final castle, and read the book there, i just broke down and cried like a child.
Planescape: Torment
scene with the sensoric stone with Nameless One's pragmatic incarnation talking to Deionarra. ABSOLUTELY FABULOUSLY written, absolutely amazing, and painful situation, seeing, *feeling* the moment from three sides, i think i started crying in about the first third of the scene, and kept crying all the time until the memory ended, and burst into crying again as Nameless One fell out of memory and started crying too, and then Fall-from-Grace came... Probably the strongest moment i've ever experienced in any videogame in my whole life. Just remembering it sends shivers down my spine and makes my eyes feel... strange.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team. My Pikachu and Squirtle were together through it all...Just couldn't let it go.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
The first time I did the helicopter crash, I wasn't fast enough in taking everyone down. Malik died, and though people on the end of my mic were telling me to just reload, I didn't. I cried a little but felt it would do the game justice to continue.
Half-Life 2 Episode 2, Portal 2 because I didn't want the story to end and Cod W@W mainly because it was super epic.
Because your avoiding posting on someone else's thread who gave a fucking original thought.Jaso11111 said:

SPOILERS FOR DEUS EX: HUMAN REVOLUTION
Wait, really? You can save her? I tried but then it seemed like the chopper just blew up randomly, so I figured shit was scripted and gave up.ParanoidEngineer said:
The first thing I ever teared up at was FFX, the very end of it. Aside from that, FFIX at a few parts late on into it. The very end if Crisis Core - I was amazed, I KNEW it was going to happen. They just did that so well! And 358/2 Days was emotional at the end! I really felt for Roxas. Sora never had to go through something like that! 0.0
(FFX)Yuna: All the friends that we've lost... and the dreams that have faded... never forget them.
Me: :'O COME BACK TIDUS!
Me: :'O COME BACK TIDUS!
Also, ending to Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness:
That bit on the beach where you fix the time rifts and you're disappearing... and your partner is crying over you, begging you to somehow continue existing. Wow. That was heartbreaking. Also, Grovyle's reveal of Dusknoir as the Big Bad and his heroic sacrifice made me sad as well.
Bastion when
you are given the choice of either leaving Zulf or or bringing him home. After everything Zulf had been through I couldn't blame him for the decisions he had made. and then the kid, burdened by Zulf, slowly getting worn down by the Ura bullets.... the Ura stopping.... the lone Ura firing and then getting struck down by a superior.... Holy crap all that combined was just so depressing. and then the ending, after using the bastion to restore it to before the calamity. I start new game plus, and I basically have the narrator saying all of what the kid did was for nothing because the calamity just happened all over again.
