Endings that ruined games!

[Fightgarr]

To be honest I thought that all of Dues-Ex's ending were incredibly disappointing. I don't think they ruined the game for me, but I was hoping for little more than 30 seconds of dialogue and a sort of vaguelt relating 'up for interpretation' quote to end what I considered to be a very good game (albeit a bit shallow).

Destroy All Humans 2

Oh yeah, completely forgot about that one. The boss was laughably easy (you actually get a checkpoint during your fight with him) and the final cutscene is uninteresting and unimaginitive, of what was a hilarious game to me.

I really, REALLY dont see why are people mad about the ending of fallout 3.

So you died. You are a hero. Be happy about it. The game ENDED. Thats it. You wanna dick around more? Shure, just use a previous save or a new character. Whats the big deal?

People want to keep exploring the game world as the hero who made the world a better place. Like in Oblivion. It was a mistake from bethesda to kill the protagonist.

I'll say Gothic 2.

I've never played NWN2, but that ending beats the piss out of anything I could ever come up with.

Though the ending of Portal was kinda of a WTF? Flying up into the sky? Am I dead? Paraplegic? Did I escape?

I'm not even sure I should be angry because I had such fun playing it.

I believe finding out what happened is the plot of the 'Mask Of The Betrayer' expansion, which my friend says is much better than the original campaign.

On Topic. Fallout3, agreed.

Demon's Souls.
The game is great, one of the best on the PS3, but:

The final boss was such a huge disappointment. Throughout the game you fought all those impressive, well-designed and very difficult bosses. Then comes the "False King"...
Hooray, you saved the world!
It didn't ruin the game for me, 'cause it's just too good, but I was disappointed.

call of duty 4 who ever played it will under stand

I've played it about 4 times, and no, I do not understand. So please, enlighten me.

Shenmue 1 for dreamcast, worst ender ever. I was enraged by this one. All that bullshitting around on the harbor driving forklift only to not get any satisfaction whatsoever. The sequal was horrid and took much to long to come out.

I didn't think the ending was that bad for SM 1 (even though it is ridiculous that the antagonist would hang around in a town where he's wanted for murder), and while I enjoyed SM 2, the last disk, and the ending, were both a let-down due to how Shen Mue 3 was never released.

The ending to a game can decide whether the whole expreience of flying helicopters, skydiving, killing hundreds of men, cawling through mud, blowing up buildings, travelling to a deserted island and setting up a cocktail bar is worth it. Sometimes it is, and you walk away from the game feeling a sense of achievement. And sometimes, it isn't.

* SPOILER BELOW! *
An example: Fallout 3 before Broken Steel saved the day. There's nothing more annoying, dissatisfying, and downright stupid than playing through a whole game, only to find that you die at the end.
* SPOILER END! *

Remembering that got me to thinking: what other games are there that end really badly, and can bad endings ruin a game? What better place to ask than here? What do you have to say?

I hate that too,I also hate when you get suited up for nothing,like in fable 2.

Fable2ress button to kill standing still boss,get a mear thankyou note as thanks.
I don't know whats worse!?!?!?!?!

Starwars the force unleased:

Spoiler

If you pick the "good" ending, You die at the end

 

[Terramax]

Its all there in the manuel, it SAYS THE GAME WILL END WITH YOUR INEVITABLE DEATH

Try reading more books, They is full of learnin!

err, you gotta BUY the game to read the manual. Maybe if they put it at the back of the box?

Try common sense, they is full of sense... or common...

 

[Buccura]

Off the top of my head, Final Fantasy 7. The ending just felt kind of half-assed to me.

call of duty 4 who ever played it will under stand

OMG that game had 2 very bad endings. The ending in the middle was like a giant middle finger then when it was over its like they stuck that finger up your ass... with no lube.

 

[experiment0789]

lets see now halo 2 and 3, fable 2, fallout 3 without the dlc, peter jacksons king kong, star wars republic commando theres opening for sequal but no word yet goddamit,

I don't mean two double post I just got to say this.....
Y DO GAMES END IN CLIF HANGERS IF THERE IS NOT GOING TO B ANOTHER GAME!
When I finished star wars republic commando for the first time I couldn't wait for the next one.......I'm still waitting........I some what given up on it,but I would still like to see another game.

 

[Deadarm]

Fable 2. Fun game, great setup for something truly epic. You feel like you're going to be partaking in a fight that will rock your socks off.

Suddenly, 'Press A to win'.

No.

When I had that happen I returned the game like 30 minutes later because I was so pissed.

 

[CuddlyCombine]

KotOR II was a huge disappointment for me. Thankfully, the good Gizka are restoring the endings, so maybe I'll be able to play it through the way it was meant to be...

 

[shwnbob]

Fable 2. You finally find the main bad guy and he just talks to you until you get so bored you shoot him and he dies. I was just like wow...

 

[Baby Tea]

The Baldur's Gate Saga...just because it ended, and I wanted it to go on forever.
But seriously, I'd have to say the ending to Fallout 3 was a pretty large let-down.
Full of holes, didn't make sense...I just expected more.
Of course, how silly is that though? It is Bethesda...story and narrative aren't their strong points.
