how every awesome character in the Warcraft series either got pwned or gave up in WoW
examples:
Arthas (R.I.P :[ )
Illidan
Kael
Vashj
Kil´jaedan (he only got banished, but still)
C´thun
Yogg-Saron (if you´ve been inside the 3 visions during his fight, you would know)
Malygos
and so many others.
its really sadddening.

The end of Knights of the Old Republic 2. So much build up througout the entire game, so much relation-building and characterization of your party members. And then... No closure. Nothing. Zip.
I am still hoping that the TSLRP will one day be released so I can see what it was meant to be like. But until then KotOR2 tops the list for me.

What, it was a cliffhanger and you get to throw a knife into some rogue General's eye socket. Ain't that enough for you till the sequel comes?
Come to think of it, now Infinity Ward's jumped ship, I really wished they'd put more in the Single Player campaign.
Yes, it is, WoW died to me the moment they decided to kill Arthas and make him the raid boss....WHY!? Blizzard WHY!?Christemo said:
Borderlands:
Starfox Adventures:
You beat the endboss and it drops a smattering of greens, maybe a blue if you're lucky.
Starfox Adventures:
You reach the big bad of the game, get ready for a rock hard boss fight, and all of a sudden, bam, he drops dead and it's boring old Andross again, and it's the same fight as Lylat Wars
Where were you standing when you fought him? Were you on the floor or the roof, cause i have noticed a lot of people miss the second half of the game! (the Inverted Castle)
Another game people seem to miss the ending in.
if you died in Far Cry 2 you didn't get the goode ending... and there IS a goode ending.
Isn't the inverted castle in Harmony of Dissonance? It's been a while since I played SotN, so I might be mis-remembering, but HoD's the only game I recall using that gimmick.theshadowcult said:
Interesting that no-one's mentioned an actual anticlimactic experience, just anticlimactic scenes...someone must have had a "...I did all that for this? My starting pistol was better! etc etc" moment...
But Andross is more fun than a barrel full of monkeys!GloatingSwine said:
And I agree with the Borderlands thing... Except that the ENTIRE ending was bullcrap. Not just the craptastic greens, but the boss in general. Really, a giant monster? Lrn2getbettersendings. I sold that junt.
Red Steel 2
Although saying that it did kinda fit in with the whole B-movie western vibe but it was still a "What that's it?" moment
You beat the final boss then there's a really brief cutscene where you're character finishes him off then turns and walks into the sunset...The End

What's the game like story wise? The Sands of Time is one of my Top 5, but I hear TFS lacks a lot of the great narrative that SoT had - especially with no Farah. And apparently they hardly even link it to SoT or WW (which, being an interquel, one would have thought would be the point).Kiriona said:
I don't need spoilers, just a general comment if that's okay.
OT: I disliked the Assassin's Creed ending, as it just stopped, but didn't tell you it had really stopped. AC2's ending was handled much better, and still managed to end on a cliffhanger.
Saboteur, they pulled a Castlenvania 2 thingand had now enemies once you reached the Eiffel Tower until the final boss which wasn't even a fight.
Also Gundam Crossfire had a lame ending. A goon horde mission followed by a screen of text with a background. The Zeon side got the worst of it, since despite winning, you still lose.

I'm only half way in, but I find the story pretty engaging. And I have to disagree with what you heard. The Prince's old personality before he turned emo is back, and they captured it well. He's always making off hand comments that have me in giggles as much as Sands of Time did. And they manage to get a similar chemistry to him and Farah going, except it's with his brother instead. Though, his brother doesn't last very long...
And no, they don't tie it in much with SoT, except for a few comments Princy makes every now and then. ("Why is it ALWAYS sand?" or "This reminds me of Azad...") But it does have lot's of the same mechanics ("Stay there! I'll climb up to you!") that were all over SoT.
So it's a pretty good game so far, except they screwed with the controls a bit and it takes some getting used to... and I miss the combat in WW and TT... But I will say no more! You go play it for yourself before I let anymore spoilers slip out!
