I'm not going to bother arguing with a list compiled from a comparatively small reference pool...but consider the following

For those who can't remember . . .

Yeah, the ending seemed very cheesy to me. Certainly not the best ending of all time, that's for sure. (I paid no attention to the zombies bit at the end.)

Unrelated note: Did anyone else get a real Bioshock 2 vibe from the flooding underwater base?
Dat last two minutes

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

Do you get the feeling that a significant chunk of the polled base only ever plays Call of Duty?

Well CoD has the most fanboys judging by the sales. I doubt that they even bother playing anything else than popular online shooters, sports games and occasional GTA installment, i know a lot of people like that.
EDIT: just watched a video of BlOps ending, couldn't remember any of it and i completed the campaign, i guess it wasn't very memorable to me.

Summarizing the thread so far

Whine whine whine X should have done better, whine whine whine Y should have been crap whine whine whine, why don't people think the way I do whine whine whine.
Here's the crux of the problem: Nearly all of the list is very recent. What happened to the good endings from the OLDER games? Riven, for instance. Or Day of the Tentacle. Or Rayman 2. The list REEKS of recent gamers who shun anything more than five years old.

Yeah, that's why Ocarina of time is right at the top right? Also on an unrelated note, maybe people just like recent stuff more? OH NOEZ! WHY DOESN'T THEY LIKE WHAT I LIKE! THEY MUST BE STUPID!

I said "nearly" Find me one on that list from pre-2004 that isn't Nintendo, I'm not seeing any other than KOTOR.

And yes, OH NOEZ. We're forgetting a ton of classics! That IS something to be upset about.

This is why I never pay attention to "fan" votes.

"Blops has the best ending"
"gordan freeman is the best game character ever"
"Kenny Dalglish is the best man for the job"

Just pretty little comforting sentences to me

Does it say enough that I don't even remember the ending?

Personally I think that in this gaming generation, the best executed ending would be that of Red Dead Redemption.

Yes, because Jak III's huge plot twist wasn't amazing, and everyone saw Bioshock's coming....I'm not sure if I would use a pistol on the stupid people or myself....

And I can't believe people are still rattling on about inFamous 2.
THE LIGHTNING HIT THE COFFIN. DO YOU REALLY THINK HE'LL STAY DEAD?!

Buddy, maybe nintendo classics are more popular in the modern world than other classics, ever stop to think of that? And maybe people don't share the same opinions as you of classic games being good or not, for example, most people on this website thinks that half life is a timeless classic...I think it's a pile of horse doo doo. Different opinions? WHAT NEW SPORE OF MADNESS IS THIS!?

Oh yeah and then there's the classic people are getting worked up over a list that reflects other peoples opinions that makes me slap my head at the intolerance of this website. Class act.

Also Sonic Adventures 2 and Final Fantasy 7

maybe they thought this was the real ending?


Also, i can't believe i'm the first person to post this!
If that was the real ending, then that would actually justify its position IMO.

blah blah popularity contest blah blah

Ahahahah, what.

Black ops was one of the worst single player experiences I've ever had, it was just plain horrible, even BC2 was better in that respect.

Unfortunately the mentality of what is quite likely the majority of 360 players is shown in that poll.

NO NO I DON'T LIKE COD, I THINK THAT IT IS STUPID AND GENERIC, THEREFORE EVERYONE ELSE MUST THINK THE SAME! IF YOU DON'T THEN YOU'RE A MINDLESS FANBOY!
I like CoD, I've played MW, MW2, Blops and MW3 for hundreds of hours. But still black ops was shit in comparison to many games in it's own series.

...Then why did you play it for hundreds of hours? Also I was more commenting on the whole, people getting worked up over other people's opinions than anything else. You think black ops is crap, well that's your opinion, to be honest I find it kind of dull myself, but there's just something about people bashing people who like COD that sends me into a blood frenzy.

The best selling game of all time is also voted to have the best ending by a random sample of people. *shock*

It's a bummer that horrible, contrived, cliched, insane plots like the one in Black Ops are held up on a pedestal by a lot of gamers. I actually started laughing when I got to the "twist."

Heh, don't remind me, didn't check before I posted that, just scrolled down and tried to squeeze it in before the nerd rage kicked in.
