Nope. In fact, a game has never even brought me close. The only times I've come close to crying are when I watched The Road and Toy Story 3.

Only out of sheer frustration when I was going through puberty, BUT NOW THAT'S DIFFERENT!
I do manly things such fighting off a thousand ninjas while riding on a bull and eating steak, with chest hair.

I always tear up a tiny bit when Garrus gets a face full of gunship at the end of his recruitment mission. Then it turns to rage and I utterly destroy that blue suns bastard, then I go and find his half dead body and curb stomp his stupid four eyed face NOBODY HURTS GARRUS YOU WORTHLESS SHIT!
When Black Ops came out I laughed until I cried knowing how many screwed up little kids were going to hack it to hell and back, just like MW2. Does that count? *raises flame shield* (I ain't bashin the game, though in my book I wouldn't play it for free, just the majority of the FPS community)
Now actual emotion crying? Oddly enough it was probably when Eliwood lost his father in Fire Emblem. Being someone who also lost his father I related to it...oh and later when he accidentally kills Ninian.

Three games come to mind. Shadow of The Collosus, Because each time I killed one of those beautiful beast a little piece of me died, and even though it was a work of fiction I think the idea of destroying something so wondrous scarred me deeply. I never actually wept, but a few times, as I watched them fall, my vision blurred as a shed a tear.
Devil May Cry 3, when Dante defeated Vergil. I actually have a twin brother, one that I am jealous of for many reasons. Seeing Vergil driven to a point of hatred for his sibling and being struck down for it was nothing short of tragic in my eyes. Seeing myself mirrored in such a way was shocking and heart braking. Not to mention Dante is a personal hero of mine, and seeing the silent agony he was in hurt me a little too. In any case the scene itself resonated deeply with me.
Finally Devil May Cry 4. When Nero confronts Sanctus, who asks why he is not worthy of Sparda's power. Nero's response was that "Sparda had a heart that could love a human being, and that is what you lack!". I'm not sure why I shed tears for that line, it was not sad, just powerful.
I never actually cried, but I shed tears, because something about these sights struck close to home.

Yeah, that's pretty much the only one that comes to mind for me. Although, it wasn't exactly her death scene that teared me up, it was the epilogue when you find out everything she actually did KNOWING she had to die. Then he salutes her grave...sadness.Amberella said:It's been awhile for me.
But the last time I cried in a game was the end of MGS3. The Boss.(
Actually MGS4 almost pulled on my heartstrings a couple times, but then ruined it before I could really get sad enough.
"What? Raiden actually died?! And in a non-pathetic way?! That's actually quite---oh wait, nevermind."
"Awww, Naomi left a goodbye message for Otacon...how sad..........(10 minutes later)...why is she still talking?"

OT: Valkyria Chronicles & Lost Odyssey are the two most poignant games that come to mind. However, I feel as though I'm more likely to cry at games (good or bad), because I tend to get attached to the characters. (From my experience, the characters which have bad things happen to them. ¬_¬)
There was one that I got a little wet eyed at. It was in Lost Odyssey. There are some great short storeys in the game and Some of the moments in the Game was good and moving.
Metal Gear Solid 4 did it for me. I can't remember why, it was a long time ago. It's been a long time since I've even picked up a PS3 controller, let alone played the beggar.
The ending cinematic of the Orc campaign in Warcraft 3.
Though it was more like a single manly tear than actual crying.
