Walking Dead is the closest a game has ever gotten to making me cry, my eyes were welling up in that end scene.

MGS3 was my first MGS game, and I played it prior to MGS4, so I was especially saddened to see Big Boss die. At least he went peacefully....
OT: Well let's see here, I didn't neccesarily cry out loud, but I did get close quite a few times due to these games:
The ending to Klonoa
The ending to Shadow of the Colossus
Journey during the end sequence
MGS3
During and after the fight with The Boss and when you found out why she did what she did.
Valkyria Chronicles
When Isara died. I was kinda expecting someone to die in the game. But not Isara! D':
Strictly video games: Mother 3 beats all. Even knowing it would happen, I still cried like a baby when
And even though you can't make out complex emotions, the 16-bit sprites still seem to be even more expressive than David Cage's tech demo. It's not about what you have, but what you do with it - and what Mother 3 did with what it had was just indescribable.
If we allow visual novels as well: I just finished Arcueid's route of Tsukihime, and that was one hell of an emotional rollercoaster. Up and down and up and down, feeling so happy, scared, sad, and like the worst human being alive - and then it ended and I was left feeling...I don't even know, but there were tears.
Hinata died. And that's only the first time. I'm not even going to put the others in spoiler tags - either you know, or you should find out for yourself.

You've gone through so much together, and now she has to leave, and you'll never see her again. But before she finally disappears, she tells you to keep living the way you were, since that was who she loved. And I completely broke down.
"It doesn't matter how much we see each other, but how much we think of each other." That's from Kingdom Hearts, but it applies perfectly to Arcueid's true ending.

I rarely cry at videogames. But I almost cried at:
1. That moment right before the final battle in Shadow of the Colossus, additionally the final battle in Ico.
2. The "Link the Fire" ending in Dark Souls and also when you realize that Kirk was only trying to get your humanity so he could heal the Fair Lady.

I put yes but i don't think i ever actual cried during a game only after like i cried when i heard this after bioshock infinite

but i don't think i did during the game.
I don't know why but i think that there might be something about games.
Like they offer experiences rather then voyeurism so we can't cry unless the character would cry.
I mean spec ops made me want to sit down and cry but i never actual did it.

MGS3 was really REALLY close. Just didn't hit home, still very well done on an emotional level.
Then I played Persona 4, and that was it. Its ending left me balling, nothing could stop the tears, it was inevitable.

Two that haven't come up: Far Cry 2 when my favorite buddy went out in a blaze of glory while we were raiding a king's treasure hoard, and believe it or not, Halo 3 at "Send me out with a bang."

The end battle with Big Boss got me a little teary. Especially the part where the game's theme kicks in.
Slightly off topic: Is Naked Snake an antagonist? I've only played MGS3 and PW. Wasn't the faction that he created (MSF I think) fighting against Solid Snake in MGS4?
