I'm very glad that Big Boss had a peaceful death after reuniting with his son.... pardon me, I have something in my eye...

- Walking Dead, naturally
- Metal Gear Solid 3 (and to some extent, 4. While not actually the ending, the final scenes involving Peace Walker also stood out)
- Crisis Core (Having not actually played FFVII at the time, it came as a...shock. The way the game's stupider mechanic acted as well brought a surprising amount of emotion)
- Half-Life 2: Episode Two was the first game I ever cried to. :'(

You fight and you fight, and when you think you're about to get that super attack, bam, it's gone, Zack's attachment to that person disappears with his life. At the end, when the 'Digital Mind Wave' (Slot machine) is broken and stuck on Aerith I shed manly tears.
The Last of Us credits are rolling right now...
Looks like every amazing zombie apocalypse game must end with some incredible, but simple line. "Keep that hair short" in case of The Walking Dead and "I swear" in case of The Last of Us. That was an amazing experience, worth buying PS3 for.

To the Moon, right from the discovery of the meaning of the rabbit straight through to the final violin note, made me sadder than any game has before or since. Absolutely wrenching.
The ending to Conker's Bad Fur Day was pretty bleak too. I was caught off guard by just how grimly it ended. You don't expect that from a game built around dick and fart jokes. 
I've played and beaten just about every Kingdom Hearts game in the series (Besides RE:Coded because I don't want to), and 1&2 always bring me to tears in the ending.
I mean.. 2 isn't all that sad, but 1... ugh.
"I'm always with you too. I'll come back for you! I promise!"
"I know you will!"
*Queue music, engage tears*

Same here. It initially seems to end on a somewhat positive note but then you remember thatBloatedGuppy said:
... none of it really happened. All you did was tamper with Johnny's memories; River still died without him ever having remembered their first meeting, which is all she really wanted.

"Was my Papa brave Mama...?"
Excuse me while I tear up a little...OK, a lot.
Y'know, I wasn't able to be sad about the Persona 3 ending. I understand why everyone did get sad about it, but right from the start, I absolutely despised the hero. I don't really know why. But it's fair enough to anyone who found it sad.IllumInaTIma said:
Yeah, I completely agree with you there. The only KH game I haven't finished yet is DDD, but I'm in the process of finishing it. I was gonna put the first two on my list, but decided against it. The ending of Kingdom Hearts one nearly had me in tears and now every time I hear any version of Simple and Clean, I just want to cry.Jeyal said:
If you're referring to the E3 abridged video, then I can say that this quote sums up the whole Kingdom Hearts series for me (although I wouldn't consider myself a grown man, I would consider myself old enough to understand the feeling).shrekfan246 said:
This is actually the first I've heard about the Hanako thing and the gifts in the shoe locker and such. But it sounds hilarious. I'd also just like to say that I completely understand the feeling you got with the photo at the end. And Teddie's monologue got me too.The Wykydtron said:
I don't know if you've seen it, but the epilogue in Golden wraps it up very nicely, but it's also very upsetting. I recommend you watch it on Youtube or something if you haven't already seen it.
Same here. From that point onwards till the end of the credits I was constantly in tears. Even just thinking of the music again stirs up the feels again.BloatedGuppy said:

Basically any JRPG that has a wonderful cast of characters that I like. And then the game ends and I'm all like "Wait...it's over? The Adventure Is over? ....I'm sad now." Tales of Vesperia, Graces and Abyss did that to me.
I'll second this. Kingdom Hearts is just one of those games that you can easily get attached to and start caring a lot for the characters. But they keep getting separated and something keeps happening to them, etc!shrekfan246 said:
I'll assume there's already a massive spoiler alert somewhere in this thread.. but here it is again!
Now, out of the recent games I've played, Thomas Was Alone had a sad pseduo-ending halfway through the game when the original gang was all eaten by the pixel cloud. I really disliked the actual end of the game though. I mean, these are two new characters whose names I only vaguely remember and you save them up till the last level to kill them? I really couldn't care about them.
Xenosaga 3.
Mkay, a bit of an old game but one of my favorite series. For a while there, I made a bit of a tradition to replay the series annually. The ending of the trilogy really breaks me up. I mean, you win the hearts of all your fans with this amazing character (KOS-MOS) and then you basically kill her off at the end? You LET her sacrifice herself for the sake of everyone else? Considering all of the religious waters that this series treaded in, they basically created a martyr with KOS-MOS. Not to mention Shion's older brother. You finally reconnect with your older brother whom you haven't seen for years and years and then bam! I mean, I hope Shion felt really guilty. It didn't seem like she cared about him, Jin, very much yet he gave his life for her and the gang.
If one good thing came out of the end of Xenosaga 3 it was Shion and Allen finally heading in the right direction with their relationship. I mean, finally, Allen works up the nerve to break her away from Kevin. But at that point I was simply too pissed off at Shion to care.
