None of made me cry, but Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy X, and especially then end of Crisis Core almost made me cry. The Walking Dead didn't bring me even close to crying, but a part in Episode 3 really pissed me off. Duty Calls made me laugh so hard I was almost crying.

Modern Warfare 3. Soap's death, Team Metal's last stand and finally killing Makarov.

Klonoa: Door to Phantomile. That was the first game to make me sob.

HL2: E2. You all know the scene.

Saint's Row 2. Poor Carlos...

The ending of Sly 2

Also, I'm only around 5 minutes into Katawa Shoujo but I can tell that Hanako's path is gonna make me bawl.

As I've mentioned before, Time Fcuk made me cry for non-event-driven reasons, it made me cry because it's so freaking oppressive and the implications are so utterly awful and the atmosphere is so completely nasty that I just couldn't stand it. Excellent game.

These got me to cry.
1. Final Fantasy 10.
2. Fate Heaven's Feel. (18+) I DARE YOU TO TRY THIS ONE
3. DotA (Tears of Frustration)

These almost got me there. Instead I had difficulty sleeping after I finished the game.
4. Sengoku Rance. (18+)
5. Final Fantasy 9.
6. Princess Waltz (18+)
7. Tsukihime (18+)
8. Fate stay (18+)
9. Monster Girl Quest Chapter 2 (18+)
10. Utawarerumono (18+)

Notable mentions to (I haven't played em and I'm staying away from them cus I hear all my friends cried from this.)
11. Clannad
12. Ever17 -the out of infinity-

I know there were more but I can't think up of any right now. :\
Also I didn't list most of the other games that were huge on emotion for example, "Spec Ops The Line" because instead of tears it was more of a "scared for life" effect.

Demolition Inc. because I really want to play it and every time I try to play it, it crashes for some unknown reason. It actually made me create a Broken Games category in my Steam library. That game makes me a sad panda.

I rarely ever had cried during a virtual activity. The only times I have ever got close were watching pewdiepie finish walking dead (it was oddly the image of pewds crying that made me seriously emmotional). ending of david tennant in doctor who, and the ending of red dead redemption (When you been with a character for a while, you hate to see them go).

Honestly, I've never cried at a game. And I'm not saying I'm some sort of badass, just that a game has never made me cry. I played TWD, not really phased. I downloaded To The Moon and played through that specifically because I heard it was very sad and wanted to see for myself, but in the end I was just left with a feeling of "Meh." I wish I had cried at the ending, I almost feel like I missed something. I mean, yeah, okay, it was pretty sad, but nowhere near the level of tear-jerking sorrow that I had been lead to believe. RDR was pretty sad.


Mass Effect 3 almost made me cry when Anderson died, as the camera panned behind them and you saw space. Just the culmination of the past few years, playing and replaying the first two until I had my perfect Shepard to carry over, and then to finally reach the end. But then, of course, it got all weird and stupid and ruined the moment for me with Starchild.

"No one ever does, Martin."
This. I shed a single tear. My psyche was pretty torn up by the end of the game, but damn it, I made it through.
Also:

"You brought this on yourself."
"We were helping."

The true ending of Corpse Party made me cry, it still does whenever I watch it actually. Thanks for the good LP Cry, you legend. A text message notification beep has never been more emotionally moving T-T
Whoo! Another Cry fan! High five! Yeah, just seeing his playthroughs of The Walking Dead and Corpse Party actually made me start crying.

Lets see, what else? Right before the final mission in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days, I remember crying. Also at all three endings of Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep, I think. Maybe it was just the first one, I played the characters in order.

Uhhhhh, I think I started tearing up during Primordia, when I thought that Horatio had actually died, the second time. And at the end of Sam and Max: The Devil's Playhouse. That was TRAGIC.

There have probably been more, but I can't think of them. I'm a very sensitive person.

1)Mass Effect 3. Mordin and Legion... Just... Just whyyyyy?!
2)The Walking Dead. Final talk with Clem. Wow.
3)Persona 4: Golden. That game is just full of tears. Tears of joy when Nanako and Ryotaro decided to become a family again. Tears of sorrow when Nanako called out to her father... Tears of FREAKING happiness when Nanako woke up! And tears of nostalgia in new epilogue when Protagonist comes back to Inaba and sees gang.

It's really tough for a game to get me all emotionally riled up, but I can think of a few moments that got me teary eyed.
The very good ending put a nice bitter-sweet bow on the whole story, what with Delta dying but his memories guiding Eleanor.
This games as a whole had an atrocious story, but Piers' death came out of left field. Yeah, it might've been predictable, but I was expecting Chris to kick the bucket. I didn't expect Piers to grow on me like he did.
Fallout 3's ending caught me a little off guard too. I know, might few moments are a little pathetic. I really want to play TWD due to the great things I'm hearing about it.

Honestly, most recent game is Dark Souls. Wasn't balling, but was still tearing up and sniffling. The part that made me?

Finding out the story behind Artorias of the Abyss and his companion great grey wolf Sif. In the original content I killed Sif and it still made me feel terrible, i despise hurting animals in games or IRL. Then I fight Artorias and later on find out that he used his shield to protect his friend sif (who was then only a pup) from being corrputed, which probably lead to him being corrupted himself. That was why his shield arm was so messed up when I fought him. Perhaps the most badass knight in the entire series sacrificed himself to save a wolf puppy..and you kill them both..god dammit

Other games..

ME3
Halo 4
Star Wars: The Old Republic
DA:O

The thing that really gets me is music. This one, this one right here gets me each time. I'm willing to wager a great many of you also have had similar experiences with this man's music. It's Jeremy Soule at his best.

No crying I can remember, but I've been blown away with some games cause of their amazing atmosphere/design. You know when you say "well done" to no body.

No game has made me really cry, with the running tears and sobbing and such (although I have not yet played The Walking Dead...seriously, is it really that good?), but quite a few games have given me some watery eyes.

ME2&3
There are many many moments that made my vision all blurry, I couldn't name them all, but I can list a few.

-The end of Jack's romance when she finally reveals her weaknesses to you.
-The end of Thane's romance when he finally reveals his weakness to you.
-The very end of the final cutscene after the suicide mission, with that grand orchestral swell and the reapers bearing down on the galaxy for the final confrontation in the next game...man, that is too much epic for me to handle, so much it leaks out my tear ducts.
-The end of the opening mission on earth, where the kid dies and Clint Mansell's score starts showing off. It's effective, dammit.
-The first time I played ME3 I didn't have grunt (never woke him up in my first game of ME2), so the mission on the Rachni planet was led by some unknown and totally forgettable krogan soldier; and damn if I didn't well up when he went charging into the Rachni line with heroic but dooming music sounding over his glorious sacrifice. Fantastic moment, that I honestly think was a bit cheapened the next time I saw it and Grunt survived somehow.
-That whole pre-ending section on the Citadel where you and Anderson confront The Illusive Man is amazing. After it all goes down and The Illusive Man is dying, Anderson is dying, Shepard is dying, the whole sequence until the platform ascends makes me feel things.
-And fuck off if you don't like it, but the ending made me feel too. It is presented well enough for me to overlook the flaws (which are honestly blown way out of proportion) and just appreciate the finale to my favorite game series of all time.
Shadow of the Collosus
Many parts of this game are amazing in their minimalist way, it's incredible how much emotion the simple landscapes and cutscenes filled with gibberish can make you feel, but there was one moment that actually got a tear rolling down my face. And the best part is that it was an entirely emergent moment, totally unscripted.

I couldn't say exactly where on the map this happened, but I had spent the betetr part of five minutes navigating a narrow ravine on my horse, and as I came out of it this scene burst upon me. I was facing a gently sloping hill rolling down into a vast bowl-like valley, with desert sand in the distance on the left side and grass on the right, and straight ahead of me a large, dark mountain. As I came upon this my camera was at the perfect angle for the sun to glare at me from beside the mountain, bathing the landscape in an orange sunset glow and shocking me as I suddenly took in all this unexpected beauty. It actually made me shed tears of awe, it was incredible. A moment I will never forget.
Devil May Cry 3
I know, not exactly a feely game for the most part, but definitely one of Capcom's best attempts at a story. The scene near the end when Lady finally kills her father and can't believe she's actually crying about it, that was a good moment for some manly nasal congestion.
I know there are other moments, but I'm not thinking of them right now and I'm hungry.
