I'm a pretty emotional person and games often make me feel strong sadness or depression, but the only tears I've ever shed were actually tears of happiness at the end of Final Fantasy X-2. I know, it wasn't even that good of a game, but the good ending when Tidus and Yuna are finally reunited, I was so pumped I actually started crying.
But as for feeling choked up or maybe getting watering up a bit, here's some others:
- FF X's ending, powerful stuff.
- The Ocarina of Time opening. That song, and Link riding around Hyrule Field, brings back some serious nostalgia.
- The entire game of Silent Hill 2. It has the most depressing, hopeless feel that a game has ever had. It's really on a level of its own.
- KOTOR 2, when you learn that you have to leave behind all your friends and followers and go into the Unkown Regions by yourself. That game had an awesome cast of characters, the only thing that held it back was all the irritating glitches.
- The first KOTOR, killing Mission and Jolee if you go Dark Side. Don't get me wrong, I love DS, but those two characters rocked, I hated seeing them die.
- And of course, Shadow of the Colossus' ending. That was so masterfully done, and is probably the saddest ending ever to a game. The once bad*** horse Agro gets crippled, and the main character gets TURNED INTO A BABY, and even though he did save the girl, he never knows it. And then, though they were once lovers, she becomes like his mother at the end.
And to all of you who say that men don't cry and all that bull****, I think that crying is the ultimate form of human emotion, and to deny that is to deny your humanity. Just my two cents.
