Most depressing/weird ending to a game (possible spoilers)

[lewism247]

Or the "In Water" ending of Silent Hill 2

Wait what!?

What happened!?

Spoiler: I'm assuming that...

He drove into a river and drowned himself, it that right?

Still, sad ending.

OP:

Most depressing: Metal gear solid 3

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

I tear up at that every single damn time!

Weirdest:Metal gear solid 2

I think the whole team was on crack or something...

The one that comes to me off the top of my head is the end of Assassin's Creed 2, where

Spoiler

Minerva is talking to Ezio, but she's staring at the camera the entire time, breaking the fourth wall. Then she says 'Desmond', meaning that she's talking to you from five hundred years in the past. Desmond's response was pretty much mine: "What the fuck?"

Damned Ninja! But yeah, AC2 has to take the cake for strangest ending.

Diablo 1. Your hero PUTS DIABLO'S SOULSTONE INTO HIS/HER OWN HEAD!
Then you find out that that was exactly what Diablo wanted, because now he had a much stronger body to use to set off Diablo II...

EDIT: Wait, what? I'm sorry, the internet just had a spasm. I didn't mean to quote you.

I'd say every MGS game after the first one or twin snakes.

Also the .hack// games for the PS2 had pretty weird endings, but then again they were pretty much weird from start to finish.

Metal Gear Solid 2: The ending broke my brain.

Metal Gear Solid 4:

Spoiler

I'm assuming Kojima lacked total creative control and the publishers refused to let Snake kill himself so that they could milk more money out of this franchise in the future. Snake killing himself was the only outcome that made any sense. It would have been the perfect ending, sad, but perfect.

Silent Hill:

Spoiler

Aliens?!!! Seriously??!!!

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull:

Spoiler

Aliens?!!! Seriously??!!!

Don't know how to add in spoiler tags, so skip this if you don't want this game spoilt

Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, You go through this entire journey. Hunt down all these keys, spirits, bloody metal for a killer sword. And it turns out that the sea king is a WHALE. And that the entire game was in another bloody dimension!.

 

[MrTeles]

Eternal sonata!

 

[smythn]

the ending for fable 2 entirely made me rage.

Spoiler

basically when you kill the evil king in the spire and are reunited with your other heroes, you can wait this out for however long you like, but apparently you can't just ask for forgiveness over a cup of tea these days. anyway after a disappointing main villain death, the mystical blind woman comes along and basically tells you to get the fuck out of her tower.

worst ending ever.

 

[Glamorgan]

Some of the Heavy Rain endings were really depressing...

Oh fuck I remember that,
I was playing it on a big tele in the dark (for some reason) and when that happened I fucking freaked, it seriously creeped me out when I didnt know who she was talking to ... the staringg ... I will never EVER forget it, although it was very intriguing ... after I calmed the shit down.

 

[Cogwheel]

Well, lessee... Planescape's been mentioned already, yes? And Shadow of the Colossus?

I guess that leaves me with Terranigma, then.

Spoiler: MASSIVE SPOILERS, seriously, play the game instead. Please.

After everything Ark's done, he gets THAT? Just a pat on the back and what amounts to "but you're still an abomination and should go die"? All the same, beautiful ending. Just... painfully sad, like a lot of the rest of the game.

[kidwithxboxlive]

Sniper Ghost warrior. Second to late mission you run around and blow up a fucking mine...last mission? shoot a couple of people and snipe the guy you were menat to kill...FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

 

[Gamegodtre]

I'd say Yume Miru Kusuri had some of the most bizarre endings of all time with

Spoiler

first Shiraki Aeka
the good end of her end somes with her nearly killing Antoinette the desturbing thin about this is how it plays out.
then theres the class presient whose story pales in comparison to the next and while wierd not worth mentioning
Cat Sidhe Nekoko
shes a cat girl on drugs who is actually the Librarian at your school, who by the end takes you on one of her drug trips(bad end), but at the end you either see here go off to the kingdom she talks about(bad end) or her parents find out take her away and then you get two tickets that arrive for the special, invitation only opening day of the 'Cat Sidhe Wonderland' amusement park, which she somehow bought and operates.

 

[BIGSMOKE4512]

I would have to agree with Red Dead Redemption. The ending was very sad.

Rockstar does do that often dont they thats how i felt about GTA SanAndreas i mean come on who wouldnt be depressed after killing their 2 best childhood freinds and your mom dying and its all over CRACK

 

[Avaloner]

Well for me it is The ending of Assasins Creed: Brotherhood

Spoiler

While the credits roll you hear someone commenting on how he destabilizes or something, does that mean that this whole time we were not playing as desmond, but someone reliving desmonds past, while desmond relived another past, Inception much? ; )

That is even more apparent as you "some higher force" force desmond to kill that woman, so who are you really in this series of games, confusing.
