Yes, in quite a few games, but for no game did i cry more than when i completed Persona 3. It's just one of the deepest games out there, in fact there were multiple cryworthy scenes within this game, especially close to the end, but the final moments just got me hard. It's a game I gladly pour 100+ hours into, savouring each and every in game day, and i actually cried more on my second playthrough on FES over 2 years after my first.
Final Fantasy X. Like an utter, utter girl.
Although I've seen that lots of other people did too, so now I'm happier about it

The ending to Conker: Live And Reloaded was the only instance of videogame perfection that ever made me cry.
It was nothing short of perfect.

Well a game has never actually made me cry, but the one that came the closest was Silent Hill 2 when I first played through and got the sad ending.
FF7
Nope, not Aeris being killed, but Cait Sith's self sacrifice in the temple. Giving a comedy sidekick character such a brave and touching scene was so unexpected and when he falls over and struggles back to his feet little paws... *sob*
(...and then Squaresoft almost completely ruin the scene by instantly reintroducing the character in the most hamfisted way possible. Bastards.)

When I was a kid, the end to Soul Blazer brought a tear to my eye but I didn't actually cry.
It doesn't usually happen to me in movies either.
I don't think I'm completely soulless though, maybe I just don't watch/play those kinds of movies/games.
The last Harry Potter book choked me up in a couple of places but one of those places made me laugh in the movie: it just looked a lot less silly in my head.

MANLY TEARS!!! Every time I play it too... I know it's coming, and the bit afterwards between snake and otacon is heart wrenching. Music doesn't help.teh_Canape said:
Phoenix Wright: Justice For All - Case 4's bad ending made me cry, but then the whole of that case is so incredibly tense, it's just fantastic.
Again with Phoenix Wright, I cried at the last two cases of Trials and Tribulations.
Love those games so much...
I cried at the end of Twilight Princess as well.
Yeah, I cry easily at things. Ah well.

I was thinking about this the other day. It seems more often then not, a video game's ending lacks closure. Sure, the story may be wrapped up, but many times you really don't care. Many times it just sort of ends. I think this mostly happens with games that have a lack luster story to begin with. If you don't care about the story, you won't care about the ending.
As for me, every time I've played through and finished Half-Life 2: Episode 2, I've felt emotion. Tears don't really come, but the acting and directing of the scene is just so well done a chill always runs down my spine. I'm always just simply awe struck.

Megaman Battle Network 3 made me cry, until they revived said character who 'died'. Then, I felt cheated.
red dead redemption. when john gets shot by the people who were keeping his family hostage... i cried.
I don't really cry, atleast not as a reaction of feeling sad, when it comes to gaming. But I can get a small tear of manliness in my eye just for the sheer awesomeness of some games - and some scenes or levels in particular.
Have I any examples? Hmm. Oh yes; the sniper level in Call of Duty 4 is one example. Just the brilliance of that level. Replaying Mega Man 2 after having not played it for a while. Going into a tavern in Baldur's Gate with that cheery medieval music in the background. Getting it on with Liara in Mass Effect (oh yeah).

I wouldn't say I've ever actually cried (Because I'm super tough and manly and lift heavy objects) but I am often emotionally moved. I am very quick to get attached to characters and I'll admit I'm a huge sucker for corny storylines with heavy emphasis on love and friendship, provided it's not incredibly forced.
Fresh in my mind from recent replaying is Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure. Which combines Nippon Ichi Software, Fairy Tales and Musicals, all things I love. It also had a heavy emphasis on friendship between the main character Cornet and Kururu, her best friend and living puppet. The ending made me quite sad.

Kururu, who was secretly the spirit of Cornet's deceased mother, is satisfied that Cornet finally is married to the prince of her dreams and can live a happy life without her. So Kururu's soul, like many other puppets through the course of the game, bids her farewell and her spirit moves on, leaving only a doll behind and Cornet singing one last farewell song Thanking her as the credits roll.
