Best Ending Credits in gaming

[Jolly Co-operator]

The ending credits sequence of Transformers: Fall of Cybertron was pretty good. It's a rare example of a credits sequence that's actually fun to watch, an it's clear that the developers were having a lot of fun with it.

Final fantasy 6 . I was basically a recap of your adventure . Made me feel sad it was over .

Honorable mention goes to portal .

I also like credits that show little epilogue clips of what happened afterwards .

Mass Effect hands down for me!
That credit sequence is pretty much what truly drove Mass Effect home for me.
It's just the perfect ribbon to tie off a great experience.

Super Monkey Ball and Super Smash Brothers Meele. Best way to sit through end credits is just to make them into an extra game. I had tons of fun racing through the credits dodging letters on Monkey Ball and it made finishing the game a pleasure. Probably only would have been improved if there were some unlockables to win during them.

Majora's Mask. I always imagined it as though Link went back through all the sidequests after ending the moon threat and then we get to see those people at the end one more time.

Having the player character start singing along to the radio was really surprising and hilarious during my first play through, so having all the different voice actors sing together during the credits was really fun to listen to.

I second this motion.

It was one of the few end credits sequences of recent note that really stood out.

Dead Rising.
Without a doubt in my mind, Dead Rising.
I still think about it from time to time, that Justified song that plays over the credits is just...amazing.

No mentions of Rogue Warrior or Plants VS Zombies yet?

On a more serious note, Valkyria Chronicles has what is in my opinion a masterpiece of ending credits. The music is great, it recaps the events so you get reminded of how much every character in the game has grown personality-wise, only to finish off on a "this is what they are all doing after the end of the game"-note. Brilliance.

Spoiler: All other credits sequences are inferior to the majesty of Timesplitters: Future Perfect!

Devil May Cry 3, because I can kill demons during them.

If you're talking about ending credits that do more than just have music or a funny voice clip, I love the ending to Super Mario World. Mario and the Yoshis all travel back across Dinosaur Island, we get a recap of all the enemies in the game, and then everyone has a party at Yoshi's House. Just awesome.

I like the credits in the GTA series, just random cars driving around, it's simple and it's something that hasn't been mentioned above.

Music is pretty much the only reason I tolerate credits. Case in point:

Spoiler: Mass Effect

Spoiler: Persona 3

Just a good song and maybe some pretty pictures is all I ask for. Save your clever writing for the rest of the game.

I agree completely. The music is the most important, which is why Mass Effect has my favorite ending credits in any game ever.

Some old Nintendo style stuff was fun too, like showing all of the enemies and their names during the credits of some Mario games.

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

I like the Super Smash Brothers' credits because it's like a minigame.

THIS! I can't imagine why its not been sad many other times in this thread.

I love portal, "still alive" and Jonathan Coulton in general, but I can't shoot and destroy the credits while listening to Still Alive, can I?

I agree with these too... not only that, you can actually unlock content by playing it...!

On a similar note... Guitar Hero 3... for the Through the Fire and Flames that you can play during the credits!

 

[Professor Idle]

'Want You Gone' in Portal 2 has honorable mention, but that's not original so how about... SUPER MEAT BOY!


The best bit of every soundtrack with a corresponding heavy bass riff through all of it. Awesome.

I liked how Chrono Trigger(depending on what ending you get) showed us a few small samples of how things turns out after the game is over. It's like extra pats on the back for a job well done.
