Anyway kidding aside I would say go with Manhunt has the most "satisfactory" kill scenes.
Also Left 4 Dead gives me a good feeling every time I shoot zombies.
Really, you get upset about killing children in Fallout 3, I just have the console version without mods... and children are the characters I want to kill most. Their all so stuck up and annoying with all their immortality.
OT: Heavy Rain, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, KotOR, games that have actual likable characters, that's when I feel bad about killing people. Especially because a number of the people you can kill in those games are part of your party.

So lemme get this straight! You cried after went out of your way to kill every kid in a town whos only inhabitants are kids with a bonesaw! what are you a mood swing psycho!?! no wonder you sobbed cause you would have needed to be and obviously been sick in the head to do such a thing!!!!The Hive Mind said:

I felt really bad about the unavoidable task of having to Kill big sisters in BioShock 2 when I learned that beneath the helmets and the screeching your not fighting a horribly deformed monster, your fighting grown little sisters who have not a mark only that they have been driven insane by being experimented on and pumped full of Adam
in bc2 i really feel like i am hitting them with bullets, idk if its jsut me but it feels pretty solid as opposed to cs:s or black ops
Is it really a good thing to take away others' desires to splice, while splicing yourself? To fuck up a system you are a newcomer to, and don't know much about? And so what if they were criminals? In Rapture, speaking out against Ryan could probably net you an arrest near the end there.The_Blue_Rider said:
OT: For some reason, I felt it deeply in Mafia II, when
SPOILER ALERT
Frank got killed by the cleaver-wielding Chinks.
I don't know about FEELING a kill but Fallout 3/New Vegas certainly let you SEE a kill
its like "it/he/she's dead. I get it."

Bioshock, when i followed the story i got very involved with the character.
It wasn't him trying to get out, it was me.
Therefore i experienced what he experienced....minus the pain.

Right at the start of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, when
SPOILER ALERT
Mario Auditore gets shot and killed by Cesare. Seriously, right off the bat? I felt really bad, even when it wasn't me killing him. D:

I'll put it this way: The second time someone plays Silent Hill 3, they usually play it a MUCH different way than the first time.
The Metal Gear games really make me feel it when I kill someone, but Peace Walker, I feel, does it best. Why? Well, they reward me so damn well for NOT killing people. Anyone not killed can be Fulton recovered and convinced to work for me. Anyone too hostile is sent to the brig where (I'm assuming) 10000 volts of logic convinces them to work for me. Not killing people nets better weapons and camouflage because I'm using the lives I save rather than wasting them. It's nice to have a unit of mercenaries to walk that stroll and make my money.
Not only that, but I actually felt good about not killing folks when I played, and felt kinda bad (for a brief moment) when something happened to people I've knocked out before I was able to put the Fulton on them (for example, I remember one fellow got run over by a tank -- poor guy).
The way Peace Walker handles it is quite ingenious because it turns my decisions on whether or not to kill into something meaningful to me as a player. If I went in blowing shit up and putting lead into fool's heads with guns a-blazing, I'd definitely have a more difficult time with the later bosses in the game, and I wouldn't have much in the way of gear either.
Sure, you can recover enemies when they're near death, but they immediately get sent to the sickbay. Infirmed employees aren't money-makers... Unless you take an insurance policy out on them and pull the cord -- HEY-O!
Though, before MGS2, it was actually a challenge to get through the game with minimal kills without being seen. Nowadays, I just use the tranq weapon all the time...

In Red Dead Redemption there were two cases for me:
Also in Assassin's Creed 1, 2 and BH whenever i successfully stealth assassinate a major target. The satisfaction is what i get high off
1. Killing Bill Williamson. It felt bloody good to finally put a bullet in his head after spending so much god damn time trying to find him and getting screwed over by various people.
2. The final scene as has been said above when you walk out of the barn into a dozen rifles. One of the best scenes in a game that I've played in a long while.

Oh yeah! I didn't want to kill him either but I did hit R1 but it didn't register! I got lucky! He scared the shit outta me!rhyno435 said:
lol I still reckon it's worse when you light them on fire with that awesome flamethrower. Seeing them thrash about wreathed in flames is just outright cruel.Nexus4 said:
Well, I think even mentioning the game is a bit of a spoiler, but it's Heavy Rain.
That couldn't have possibly felt bad.
Seriously though, yes, Mass Effect is extremely appropriate. I never felt more sorry for two nameless (in this case - Krogan) grunts than in this game.
I made a conscious decision to kill Nathaniel while he was threatening Blake and that felt like such crap. So, when it came to the drug dealer, I couldn't do it.
This game kicks so much ass.

Actually, I'm searching for a time I felt bad about killing a target. Every Big Daddy ever in Bioshock 1/2, for example. Two stand out.
1: The rappel kill near the end of MW2. Midway through this, I realize "Hey, I'm brutally murdering a U.S. soldier and looking in his eyes in the process. How right can this actually be?"
2: Captain Emmy Malin in World of Warcraft. Straight out killing an enslaved woman who's secretly working for your side. Who drops a death letter to her father. That's a kick in the teeth.
