Games that make you really feel it when you kill

When I was playing Metal Gear Solid: Twin SNakes for the GC, there was a boss fight that takes place in a room with Ocelot Revolver and a person of interest, who is tied up with C4. I shot off target and hit the C4, thereby killing the person of interest. It hit me deep when the guy died.
Also, Metal Gear Solid 3:Snake Eater has a cool boss fight which makes you face all the enemies you killed up to that point in the game, it made me see how trigger-happy I really am.

Playing through Shadow of the Colossus is an exercise in compassion for the giants you're killing. Especially considering some of them don't even actively fight back against you. I mean, let's face it: one of them is a llama. Since when are llamas aggressive? Really, you're just committing colossus murder. Tie that with the emotional story behind it all and it's a great example of caring when you kill something.
How about BioShock? The Big Daddies are just trying to protect the Little Sisters, and you're out for their blood. How is that justifiable? Everything was going fine until you came along. In all honesty, you're the kind of person that the Big Daddies were designed to fight. They're supposed to protect the Little Sisters against people like you. Monster.
Or how about when you kill Andrew Ryan with a golf club simply because he asked you to? That scene moved me. It was pretty insane, though I don't know if it counts, considering you don't actually do it yourself. Thoughts?
Also, obligatory comment about being forced to kill the Weighted Companion Cube in Portal.
...bastards...

Quoted for truth. Man, I completely forgot about that. That game had a lot of those moments, I thought. I really need to play that game again...rhyno435 said:
Personally, I've only felt bad at one moment for killing someone in a game. One was in Dragon Age when I (spoiler alert) killed Loghain to not let Alistair leave. I only really felt bad because you kill him in front of his daughter and because the story was immersive enough for me to get sucked in.
I was freaking out on what to pick, I just closed my eyes and hit a button. I miss him.....rhyno435 said:

Yeah.
It loses its touch after a while, but for the first 3 missions the killing is very well conveyed - You feel like an absolute maniac, just breaking people apart if they so much as get in your way, progressively losing your mind as you do so. Then after a while it becomes weary work.
Just like real serial killing!
Oh, and how do you embed videos again?

Little King's Story because the NPCs hold a funeral for them, dress in black and mourn them for a day after they die (because you got them killed).
This happened to me, I was standing right next a guard and hit assassinate and apparently I meant to kill to two citizens standing next to me instead. (I didn't really feel bad and proceeded to destroy as many guards as I could find by taking their weapons)AlternatePFG said:
I felt pretty bad when I killed Logain from Dragon Age: Origins. He just shared my iritation with all the whiners in that game and then died with some hardcore honour. There is another vague memory I have of a character (NPC on my team) who nearly died near the end of a game but ended up surviving, I remember feeling upset at the thought he might die and relieved when he didn't.
Mainly because most of the people in Manhunt games are trying to kill you. Secondly, I didn't want to feel remorseful playing that game. I specifically played it so I could feel like an evil bastard.MichiganMuscle77 said:
To be fair in Bioshock thats only if you Harvest the little sisters, if you save them your doing a good thing. Remember that the Big Daddies were actually usually Criminals that were forced into becoming a Big Daddy, and killing them and rescuing the little sisters is a good thing, not to mention either way if you remove little sisters then it would take away most of the ADAM production of Rapture meaning that the inhabitants cant splice up anymoreTundraWolf said:
Red Dead Redemption. Just during the free roam I was hunting and the auto-aim made me kill a mexican man on a donkey, and I felt so horribly guilty.
What about the beggar women, or the minstrels? I know I felt something the first time I chainsaw a guy in 2 on gear of war. Also some of the interrogations/melee kills in SC: Conviction were pretty gnarly.AlternatePFG said:
