Most Disappointing ending (Spoiler Warning)

[Mercurius507]

Star Wars KOTOR 2 easily has one of the most nonsensical and anti-climactic endings ever; a shame considering the original was one of the best games I've ever played. Assassin's Creed 1 and 2 both had stupid endings. God of War 2 also comes to mind. Also Elfen Lied (the anime not the manga) had a pretty anti-climactic ending as well.

Fable 2. What a fantastic boss fight and closure that was.

I don't know, I found it an interesting attempt to do something different. I mean how many games end with a boss fight of some kind?

On topic:

Spoiler

Fable two, the save everyone ending, but loose your dog/family. What do they give you? A statue, "err thats great don't I have like six of these already?"
"but this one is free"
"No it cost me my dog and family. You know what? I'm going to spend two hours more on this game just slaughtering you lot, then I'm going to delete this save and do things the correct way."

 

[bad rider]

got to agree with all the fable II comments
I collect all the heros together, am finally about to get my revenge when

Spoiler

Rever shoots him before me.

Gerrrr!

There really should be a Han shot first gag in here somewhere.

most people i know love the ending of Elfen Lied
you just have to look at the symbolism

KOTOR 2 was disappointing though

It's not a show, but i'll say FEAR 2 ending is the weirdest, craziest and most disappointing ending i encountered in my life.

Spoiler

I knew we were Alma's son since the beginning. Once i pick that Soldier report about Becket, i knew it. That and your dead teammate that said to you her children was stolen from her. But at the end, you fought a crazy... (can't recall his name). Then, you see Alma, who is dead btw, pregnant. She pick up your(Becket) hand, you fight her a bit but she put it on her newly pregnant stomach. So, in retrospect. I inseminate my own dead mother? And you are still tied up in a sphere by the end. WHAT THE HELL?

While I agree that is was a bad ending there's a couple of points wrong there:

Spoiler

Beckett wasn't Alma's son. The children that were stolen from her were the Point Man (The main character from FEAR) and Paxton Fettel (The bad guy from FEAR). Alma was drawn to Beckett due to the psychic powers the bad guys gave him. Then when you're in the psychic world thing trying to kill her, she's raping your body in the real world.

Then she gets pregnant in a manner of seconds...somehow...

This summer I have been having a strange anime craze(not a big fan), and just got finished watching two shows. The first was Yuyu Hakusho, and just now I got finished watching Full Metal Alchemist.

One thing that struck me. The endings were extremely disappointing. On both shows they rushed the endings, and on FMA they stuck all the closures of all the characters in the last 8 minutes.

So what was your most disappointing show ending. (doesn't have to be anime)

You need to read the Manga of FMA or maybe watch the new Brotherhood series which follows the manga a lot closer. The ending is far more satisfying if you ask me.

 

[kaveradeo]

The ending to lost was disappointing because for one it didn't answer any questions and two it drifted away from its science explanation of the flash sideways timeline.

 

[gussy1z]

Halo 2. Hands down the most dissapointing ending to anything... ever.

 

[Pyode]

I hate not knowing any of this. I would have probably just watched Brotherhood instead.

That's ok. I only found out recently when I saw that they had FMA: Brotherhood on Hulu. I was curious about what the show was so I did some research and found all this stuff out.

If you want to check it out, they have the entire series for free on Hulu minus the last two episodes, but those will be out by the end of next week. The only thing is that they are in Japanese with English subtitles so, if that's a problem for you, you may want to wait 'till they release the English dub.

Series 5 of Doctor Who. It just didn't feel like a finale, and the way it was resolved seemed like a cop out.

Totally.

Or just to rub salt in some old wounds, what about Matrix Revolutions?

Well, you just knock one taboo from the list. There still themes of pedophilia and necrophilia aplenty. And at the same time, no less.

Spoiler: Questions about Alma's condition

If she's undead... or rather a psychic imprint of the girl she use to be... how can Normal Sperm affect her? How can she become pregnant? Does his fetus is real or another "ghost"? What happen to Beckett? Will he get stuck in the psychic augmentation device forever? Why can Alma summon Cthullu at will? Why doesn't she kill Aristide before she hit Lt Kiera Stoke? Wouldn't the activation of the machine help her? And, why on the subject, WHY DIDN'T SHE KILL ARISTIDE INSTEAD OF PUSHING HER? Why Beckett? Why, WHY, [HEADING=1]WHY?[/HEADING]

 

[skinnbones3440]

How did we forget death note?

Spoiler

seriously? a little kid takes out our main character as he bitches out and fails to be the calm, collected mofo he's been all series.

i gotta agree on FMA (also just watched all of it this summer) and the ending was like...WHAT...how...how do you just end it like that... if you wanna watch something good tho. watch Gurren Laggen. its on hulu for free...just some shitty comercials. its amasing, only 27 epsodes long and dubs in English are amazing.

Well the original FMA animé were just a ''spinoff'' from the manga. The ''real'' animé (which is much better) is named Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood.


Also TTGL is fucking amazing!


-------------------------------------------------------

Borderlands ending sucked bawlz -,-!

/agree...you sir recieve +2 internets and an extra +3 internetz and man points if you cryed like i did at epsode 8....i tear up thinking about it... :')

 

[Anah'ya]

Splinter Cell Conviction

Spoiler

No, not the Single Player Campaign. Well.. that too.. but that can't be called an ending if you knew it was going to happen 10 minutes into the game.

I'm talking about the Co-Op campaign ending.

Yes. That piece of bad character development for the sake of the shock and awe factor.

RRRRRrrrrRRRAGE.

 

[MKScorpion]

Halo 3

Then again, I found most of the campaign to be disappointing. =(

 

[furry-ryuu-ken]

What about the ending to Stop'n'Swap in BK N&B?
Or halo 3, Cliffhanger, AND they said there's never going to be a another one, and halo 2.
EDIT: My name is [insert name]You ninja'd my post, prepare to die.

 

[Dango]

Most anime have a disappointing ending.

SPOILER!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*

Best anime with worst ending? Clannad.

Why bother watching something if none of it (half of second season) really ever happened?

No. Clannad's ending was actually really, really good, because it succeeded in serving the purpose of conveying the message that the rest of the show could not.

 

[DSK-]

Fable 2. What a fantastic boss fight and closure that was.

Agreed. I couldn't believe that. Complete and utter disgrace of an ending.

AHAHAHAHAHA
AHAHAHAHAHAHA the english dubs are shit, Kamina isn't nearly as manly as the japanese version

If you want a disappointing ending; Berserk the anime series. They cut out like 3 volumes and then stop at the eclipse
