Halo three, just from the fact of leaving the game open for whats going to happen next, Im sure everyone has heard the rumors that there not makeing another Halo game "ODST" does not count thats an add on to Halo 3, you cant just end a huge story with the best hero of his time left floating in space!! all though I guess they could throw something in the timeline of ODST to rap up the story for Master Chief, lets hope not!!

STALKER Clear Sky.



It was just...... what the fuck? I went through 5 hours of gameplay for this?
5 hours? God, must be really short, then.
A lot of games nowadays only have some 4-8 hours of gameplay. Clear Sky lasts longer if you decide to do a every side-mission and actually be bothered to do annoying ass faction wars.
Hm, probably an attempt to appeal to the clueless idiot demographic, paraphrasing Yahtzee.
I played and beat clear sky before his review even game out. Don't generalize people.

Go play the game and watch the ending. It's just a giant "what the fuck is this? where's the rest of the game?"

Space Siege comes to mind, both of the endings for that were sub-par.

Also Assassins Creed, it was not a bad ending but it was somewhat infuriating to leave it so open like that, there was practically ZERO closure.

Bioshock just because it's never been determined or flat-out stated which ending is canonical.

Fallout 3 because the ending is horrifically bad when compared to the rest of the game. I mean, really, either you end the game playing a righteous martyr that DIED, or a selfish sociopath? Way to go with the black-and-white morality, Bethseda.

Prince of Persia. Just....Prince of Persia. The new one.



EDIT- OH AND THANKS DEAD SPACE FOR THAT WONDERFUL CLIFFHANGER ENDING, HORROR FANS WORLDWIDE REALLY APPRECIATED IT

Getting in a pod and flying off to nowhere?
So you did not play through any levels except for the last one?

I've got to say Oblivion.
Well done running around completing monotonous tasks for 5 hours. Now watch me fight that huge dragon...
I've got to agree, especially when the sole person who keeps Tamriel from going to hell, and the sole reason for your questends up being turned to stone. He leaves no heir to the throne; thereby possibly foreshadowing a brutal, devastating civil war for the throne of the country that was just saved from being ravaged by demons.

Call of Duty 5. Seriously, no ending movie...The only so called "Ending" is that you get shot(after sucking up thousands of bullets threw the campaign), then you manage to put the soviet flag atop the(Can't remember the building's name). Yeah, really nice.

Dark Rift for the N64. The one early 64 game released relatively on time with few if no actual delays, and it gets to be pretty obvious once you play through a few of the story arcs that many a corner was cut in favor of keeping a schedule. Normally, I don't begrude a game for having scrolling text epilogues for endings, but the ending 'stories' for the characters in Dark Rift read more like scripts than prose; a present-tense, third-person description of a singular event (running across a collapsing bridge or morphing into a star), followed by a still image that looks like a screenshot from a pre-rendered cinematic. It's as if they had these pre-rendered cinematics in mind and partly made, but only chose a frame of it and scrolled the scene's original script over it.

The misadventures of tron bonne!

While an all round fantastic game the ending pisses me off so much. because you spend the entire game looting an entire country and getting ridiculous amounts of money. Then a servbot throws it out the ship. At that point they are no longer cute but you want to strangle them.

In all honesty, its hard to be a martyr and not die...

CoD5 was dissapointing. The American campiagn tries to be a downer like CoD4 but you have no attachment to any of the characters, unlike with Price and Gaz who are awesome, so who cares if they die? Just another casaulty of war.
The Russian ending pissed me off becuase I love history. When I realised that you were gonna be the guy that raised the Hammer and Sickle above the Reichstag, I was hoping theyd keep it accurate to what really happened but simce they didnt, I was fucking pissed, regardless of how epic an ending it was. Although seeing your Russian commander using his meat cleaver was cool.

This is what it should of looked liked

For me it's still Moh: Rising Sun purely for the expectation it instilled as you got in to a plane.
Holy Shit!!! Looks like the Moh series is going to try something new and actually do something different from a driving sec...oh!

It's not the longest game either.

FFX. Not played X-2, so please spoil for me =)
(I am serious.)
I didn't like the idea of the greatest game relationship i've seen crumble before my eyes.

(SPOILER ALERT) Half-Life 1 and 2, I mean their great games, in my top 10 to be honest but in the end (SPOILER ALERT)














Once you beat the final boss in HL1 you get teleported into a tram and Gman tells you to get off it or he'll OWN YO ASS, you get off and THE END
and in HL2 you get esploded off the top of a giant tower. then time pauses and the same prick starts giving you a lecture. THE FUCKIN END
Oh sheesh you've got to be kidding Half lifes ending created a lot of anticipation . A guy who had been staring at you through out the whole game finally confronts you but the conversation is short and brief leaving the player wanting somewhat more - which a sequel can offer.

There were a lot of NES games that were abusive and then you found out the ending blew billy goats.

How about Super Ghouls and Ghosts? Or even the first Ghost and Gobblins? You always have to play the entire game twice for some lame ass ending of Knight Aurthur cuddling his whore - I mean damn, at least make some babies for christ's sake!

Little Nemo had a pretty lame ending, Betelgeuse had a stupid ending as well, and all had stupid endings.
