Being unoriginal, but FF7 Aerith - kudos to Nobuo Uematsu for the perfect marriage of an iconic scene with such a personal song. Also, same game but different approach - right after the botched execution scene when you get the Highwind to search for Cloud. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing and was just flying around, all while the giant Meteor ball-o-death and the doomsday music was constantly in my face. Truthfully, it freaked me out after a while and I couldn't play anymore, which I'm somewhat thankful for because the next events weren't going to be any better for me being as on edge as I already was: possibly wiping out Barrett's home with a train; watching a mother condor die; Ultimate Weapon, Mideel's destruction and...whatever acid trip Cloud was on.
Also, the Kingdom Hearts 2 ending - not just that it was sweet and heartfelt, but because it was actually surprising that they made good on the promise from the end of KH1.

Everyone is reunited and comes home, but with more friends, yay!
Bastion, just before the ending.
And again, just after the final decision.
An odd moment in Grand Theft Auto IV near the beginning.
I liked GTA IV's writing, but that was the only part that actually got me emotionally invested. That and
, but the latter just made me smile.
Saving Zulf. In all my playthroughs, I've never let him die despite resolving to see all the story branches.

If you move on, Rucks never gets to see the world he loved again. If you restore Caelondia, you deny Zia a happy life forever. No matter what you pick, you hurt someone you love.

As Niko and Roman flee Alderney, Roman begs Niko to go back to his apartment. When they get there, though, the apartment is burning. As they drive away, Roman tells Niko that he'd left a ring for his girlfriend in there.
sparing the traitor Niko had been searching for the entire game
The dlc ending of Asura's Wrath, Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 ending, Okami ending and the Walking Dead.
MGS3.
Such a badass ending!
There was a welling tear at that end.
Captcha: Stony-heated. How does it know!?

the way the boss just gets made out to be a pure traitorous *****, she kicks the shit out of you 3 or 4 times then BAM! She was the ultimate scape goat, getting her country out of the shit and dying a hero but nobody except a handful of people will ever know the true story!
Worst of all is you execute her, the game forces you to be the one to put a bullet in your mother figure/mentor/legend

Golden Sun, after one of my little brothers friends saved over my almost finished game file after playing it once for 10 minutes without asking. I was already having a bad day and knowing everything I put into the game was gone because some punk wanted to save a game he would never play again got to me.
I can't think of any actual story pieces for a game that brought me to actual tears, even when I get sad I rarely actually cry from it.

Bioshock 2 made me cry. That might shock the people who look down on Bioshock 2, I liked it as much as the first game.
It's wierd how I empathise so much with a Big Daddy compared to a normal human being. The ending I got the first time, I suppose was what frustrated me the most. Not that it was bad, just upsetting.

And I thought I was the only one to see that game as emotionally poignant! Sometimes I get the feeling people would rather not acknowledge it's existence.Professor James said:
You make we want to play ME3 for those feels, now.Requia said:
Wow no one?
Well so far the most memorable game I played that tugged on my heart strings was the Intro to Chrono Cross.
Those of you who probably played through out the game might understand as to why at 1:50 in the opening intro to the game. Of course first play through it looks normal.
But when I finished the game, then did a new game +, and when that violin music kicks in into that slow melody. I shed man tears.

Totally forgot this one. Not the ending itself but what you had to do in order to achieve it.putowtin said:
Killing Zeke was really hard and I felt like a bastard afterwards
Once, there i was enjoying a good old session of Gran Turismo back in the day and the shelf over my bed collapsed dropping a Metal Gear Solid collector's edition right into my lap, just clipping my left nut...some tears were shed that night i tell you.
I got surprisingly close to tears when all the Lumas jumped into the black hole at the end of Super Mario Galaxy, the music was so sad. But I didn't cry.
I was deeply saddened by Skyward Sword in the scene where Zelda tells Link that she's sorry for having him being the Middle Man, she fooled herself into believing that she was playing him all along. Then she froze herself in a crystal for hundreds of years, waiting for Link to save her. Link's face when she told him, he actually started crying for the first time ever. But I didn't cry.
But both those times caught me off guard, Mario Galaxy I thought was just going to be Mario saving Peach, and then the universe collapses in on itself. And in SS, you had just got the true master sword after going on a wild goose chase of barely losing Zelda.

The ending to Deadly premonition made me shed a tear or two. You know, when:
Deadly premonition is one of my favourite games because of the story and the characters.
Emily dies and York's personality splits from Zach to be with her, and at the end when Zach tries to speak to York, he doesn't get an answer beacuse he is in the afterlife with Emily

You know, for all the hate it gets a LOT of people say Mass Effect 3 made them cry. It did that to me as well, just all those quick flashbacks, all the resolutions, just... everything was fantastic for me.
Mass Effect 2 made me cry at the end because I was so sad that 3 wasn't out yet and I was so god damn filled with emotion from it.
Also, To the Moon and Spec Ops: The Line,

Mass Effect 3 did make me cry a few times. And that one scene in Bioshock infinite (I think you know which and if not I'm not gonna spoil it)...
