Some moments in Mother 3. One of the very few games that manages to be funny and depressing at the same time and a huge contrast with Earthbound.
Games That Depress You.

Shadow of The Collosus. The world is so beautiful, yet it is entirely empty, and boring. One of the most over-rated games ever IMO.
What really bugs me out in Fallout 3 is the mess of buildings to the south of DC. Head to Rivet City and look to the south. That massive conglomeration of twisted metal skeletons just bugs me out.Susan Arendt said:
I might be the only person that this happened to, but at the end of the First Act on Far cry 2, where...
...I felt pretty alone because I knew if I was downed in a gunfight I couldn't be saved =(
all of your buddies are massacred in the bar and they all get thrown onto that truck with you...

Recent sonic games depress me for obvious reasons.
When I buy a game and play it, only to find that it's actually BAD, that depresses me.
When a game has been hyped to death, then I play it and don't have a good time, that depresses me.
When I play Soul Caliber 3 against computers, that depresses me.

Usually, what gets me depressed is when I care so much about the characters in a video game/tv show/movie, that I want them to exist, or I want to exist in their world. Then I get depressed because I know that can never come true.
Fallout 3 has a lot of bitter pills scattered around for you to swallow, but there was one particular moment which really made me feel sorry for my character.
He's one of the good guys proudly wearing his regulator duster, on top of that he just lost his dad, then after his latest deed, basically saving everyone's sorry asses he was sent away. Details in the spoiler.
After that I started to play one hell of a cutthroat *****. :>

After setting everything straight at Vault 101, talking the overseer back to his senses, new Miss Overseer sent my character away, being the self-righteous cow she turns out to be.
There lies so much in that moment as he steps out the Vault for the second time, seeing the same scenery he saw when he first left the only home, the only world he knew. He looks into the wasteland and sees the still exact same wasteland after all his efforts, having no one left of his family, being rejected from his home. The loneliness surrounding that poor guy really touched me for a moment.
I could almost hear him yell "What's the f'ing point?!"

i feel the same way, but the entire time i was playing through resistance 2 i couldnt help but think how where all going to die and how pointless life is, and then i played littlebigplanet and was reminded of how life is worth living most of the timeSmyter said:
I disagree. Portal is far from perfect. Despite what Yatzee, Game Informer or anyone else for that matter may think of the game I still found it to be the blandest part of the Orange Box. And I still fail to see how and why people go super emotional over a cube or why Portal is seen as being better than the second coming of Christ.MarsProbe said:You are of course being ironic. As we all know that Portal is the only perfect game in existence. After all, even ZP couldn't really say anything bad about it. Any game that can make you lament the "demise" of an inanimate object deserves recognition...soren7550 said:
While it didn't really go so far as to depress me, the ending of Braid was one that definitely made me pause for thought.
What truly confounds me is why no one says anything about the ending for for Half Life 2:Episode 2. When I finished it, I almost started bawling. I guess they're to busy telling everyone out there that the cake is a lie.
