Dragon Age when I found out I had to either to die, let my lover die, have him leave hate me forever and become a drunk, or have him fuck my worst enemy to impregnate her with a demon T_T Would you rather stick glass up your urethra or cut off an ear? Well geez thanks for the choices...

That photo of the lone wanderer and James at the end of Fallout 3 just made me feel like I had come so far, with the music it's very powerful to me.

When I read the bill of sale Boone was looking for in Fallout new vegas. Especially the 500 extra caps ugh.

The romeo and juliet frogs in Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure.

I have also cried out of frustration at the jet-ski part of RE4 and a few times in Deadly Premonition cause I suck at quick time events XD

You didn't end up dead in Bioshock 2 if you had the good ending, you got transferred into her body so you could always be together, that made me cry a bit.

I'm a really sensitive guy so I'm not that hard to break when it comes to sad scenes...

That being said, the best example I can come up with was the ending cutscene to FF 10.

Yeah that's right. Final Fantasy X. Wanna fight about it??

I've been close to it, not sure if I've actually been weeping. Maybe a tear and pent up emotion, Metal Gear Solid has stirred some emotions and there have been other instances. Books stimulate more raw emotion as a whole I've found, probably the deeper long term in depth connection I make with the characters.

At the end of the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and Metal Gear Solid 3. I almost cried at the end of Red Dead Redemption and Bioshock 2.

End of COD 4 for sure. That was a tear-jearker, especially compared to the later games in the series *Oy vei*.
It's the only one I can think of right now... OH! When my rank 10 Peasant Battalion finally got smooshed in Battle for Middle Earth. I was heart broken for days :'(
Does crying in laughter or frustration count? I have few more for those...

Most Tales of games have made me teary eyed at some point except for Vesperia. I found almost all those characters to be unlikable

Bioshock 2, from its sheer Anathemic quality. Part 1? Kind of.
Not really tears falling, more welling for both.

I've never actually cried from a videogame but the following games off the top of my head made me come close to doing so:
Bioshock good ending (so ungodly touching...)

HL2: Episode 2 ending (I literally reached my hand out and said, "no")

Braid ending (once I figured out what it was about, it was so tragic)

Some minor sidequest in ME2, I don't even remember.

Earthbound ending (nuff said)

SH2 Ending (I think I got the "normal" ending, but whatever I saw was incredibly emotional)

No, never.

But then, I tend to either get really emotional about a very few select things, or completely am impassive - I may just not have found a game that gets to me yet.

Actually, I don't think that I've ever cried, but I've felt all the other range of emotions.

In Fable 2, when I had to choose to save people or my dog, it wasn't even a difficult decision. I was so bitter towards them, I did almost feel like crying.

Ahhh, actually though, I'm surprised. I was sure I cried a lot during videogames. But... I guess not.

I am a man. I do not cry.
(Ok so once or twice during really dramatic scenes that I cannot think of at the moment.)

Games have made me have nightmares, but never made me cry. Its a bit hard to see real emotion in games, I need to see their emotion before I can relate and therefor cry. Though Final Fantasy X, though I have not played it, might have.

I've never cried, but at the end of RDR I felt like I could cry. I just find it impossible to cry at any form of media.

Castlevania: lament of innocence, when *SPOILER*!!! Leon killed Sarah to make the Vampire Killer. God that was tragic

and after Terranigma for SNES, for being such a great game.

When I was going through puberty maybe. I remember the end to Soul Blazer bringing a tear to my eye.
Recently I've come close with things like New Vegas but that was because I really wanted to play the game and it would not work properly.

I believe that video games can make a story where the player gets so emotionally invested that they make that connection but whenever they try, they try way too hard. For examples please see any recent R* or Bioware games. They really lay it on thick and ends up making what would be an emotional impact an absurd and pretentious display.
