Tell me about other games with intense twists, like MGS1/2/3, killer 7 and no more heros. I WANT MORE GAMES!

 

[Trivun]

Probably most Silent Hill games. And that's all I can think of right now...

Oh, wait got another one: "I'm sorry, the princess is in another castle!"

 

[Yassen]

Knights of the Old republic, the first one. That twist was on par with "Luke, I am your father."

 

[Flap Jack452]

Overlord has one I wasn't really expecting, though was pretty cliche to say the least... Also Assassin's Creed has the same idea, but executed slightly differently. And both are fun games in their own right.

The protheans didn't create anything the reapers did!

"I'm sorry, the princess is in another castle!"

Oh my god yes!

 

[KenzS]

Knights of the Old republic, the first one. That twist was on par with "Luke, I am your father."

That twist blows Vader away like a Death Star laser to a planet-sized hyper-drive core. AKA Hell yeah ************, you are correct.

Agreed, I never saw it coming!

Just Silent Hill 2, really. 1,3 and 4 didn't really have much 'twists' per se. (I haven't played Homecoming yet) But if you come in unspoilered, Silent Hill 2's twist should blow you out of the water.

F.E.A.R 1 and 2, Deadspace

 

[Cymbal Monkey]

now I need to play Knights of the Old republic

 

[Graustein]

You cannot comprehend the true nature of Giygas' attack!
Yeah, I'm gonna go with EarthBound.
It's not a plot twist, but it's such a tonal shift that it damn well should count!

But for a real plot twist, I'm gonna say the identity of the Black Knight in Fire Emblem 9/10 caught me totally by surprise.

Agreed, 100%

Knights of the Old republic, the first one. That twist was on par with "Luke, I am your father."

Quote taken from The Spoony One: Noah Antwiler (http://www.spoonyexperiment.com)

"Exception to the rule - ?Luke, I am your father.? - You should always correct people when they misquote the iconic line from The Empire Strikes Back. This one sends me into an instant rage every time I hear it, because the conversation goes like THIS:

Vader: ?Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.?
Luke: ?He told me enough. He told me you killed him.?
Vader: ?No. I am your father.?

I know people only add the word ?Luke? in there because without it, the sentence loses much of its context, but what in the hell are you doing quoting Star Wars anyway if you?re not going to quote it properly? Real fanboys like myself are honor-bound to slap the shit out of you. I saw ?Luke, I am your father? as some bullshit trivia question playing before a movie in a theater, and I nearly set the goddamn building on fire. That?s not the line! I have enough problems with George Lucas taking a massive shit on the franchise that shaped my childhood without you perverting its noble memory with your ignorant parroting of the greatest plot twist ever."

But yeah, its a great twist.

That truly threw me for a loop.

"I'm sorry, the princess is in another castle!"

I think that's the original insane twist for a game.

This is from CoD4

Spoiler

in CoD4 when you're in a helicopter riding out of the city and the nuke goes off in the distance resulting in the death of you and everyone else in the helicopter.

 

[KoRn_Leader]

Dead Space realy effed me up, i was expecting one of the dudes to be a double agent but-

EDIT: Whoops i posted a spoiler..

 

[ChromeAlchemist]

Indigo Prophecy, I forget what the hell was a twist and what wasn't, I was too busy being mind-raped by the story.

Star Ocean: Till the end of Time:

Spoiler

Really? You're a program? I love the game but that just messed with me

 

[Cymbal Monkey]

I think more games need to mess with me.

I swear to god I didn't see that coming, and my face was somewhat similar to this O_O

Dead Space realy effed me up, i was expecting one of the dudes to be a double agent but the chick... that just plain caught me off guard.

Ditto, I always expected Hammond to be the double agent.

 

[SmartIdiot]

Hmm. Bioshock, unless of course you notice just how many times Atlas says "Would you kindly...", I KNEW something was up...
