Sad deaths of slightly significant characters.

[AdmanUK]

Mordin from Mass Effect 2, I was genuinely in shock and more than a bit gutted =(

I've just completed mass effect 2, and had no one die.
I want to go back and kill off Jack, Tali and Mordin. I have a plan for all 3 =D

I didn't even know it was possible not to lose people! How!? Lol

You need most characters loyal, and I sent mordin back with the crew, so he survived. Had big people like garrus and grunt holding the line during the end sequence. Had a good leader for the second team and tali as my tech expert. Worked well for me
To get the 3 deaths, im planning on sending tali in the vents and using a bad leader like mordin. Hopefully hell get himself killed in the process. This shoudl kill Tali. Then Jack isnt loyal to me so I can use her as my biotic specialist and that will kill her. Good times!..
Might be a while before I do that though because I just started playing FF6 again

Noble Team From Halo Reach

For me, it was more Jorge more than anyone else. He seemed like the coolest dude there.

In the evil ending of The Force Unleashed, I was sad when the pilot died, as I was when Starkiller died in the good ending (that is, until I realize there are about a thousand more of him).

 

[Woodsey]

Boba Fett, noooooooooooooo!!!

Wasn't he like 80 when he died? Everyone's gotta go some time!

 

[the Revenator]

Foehammer from Halo: Combat Evolved the poilet who gets hot down during the level The Maw she was fucking awesome and just about every minor character from halo.

Spoiler: Mother 3 spoilers

Hinawa and Clous' deaths were done in such a way that it really is saddening, especially for Clous with the scenes that lead up to it.

I was almost in tears in the final battle.

 

[SushiJaguar]

Mine would have to be Kat in Reach. Boom, headshot. No fanfare, no epic scene, bugger all but Six shooting the Phantom with his pistol.

Poor SPARTAN III's. Got the short end of the stick in regards to armour, shields and augmentations.

 

[GestaltEsper]

Takeharu Kirijo in I feel bad because he just wanted to atone for the mistakes of his father, also that eye-patch was bad ass. He really loved Mitsuru and just wanted to burden her less.


It's been said already but General Leo,he was so damn awesome and really got screwed over by Kefka.

You mention Kirijo but not

Spoiler: Persona 3

Shinjiro?

Spoiler: While we're at it...

The MC too.

 

[Breaker deGodot]

When Marvin got shot in the face.

 

[Nieroshai]

Surprised no one said this.

Spoiler: Shadow of the Colossus

Your faithful horse Agro dies.

I suppose a lot of people just didn't get attached to him, but still. And the entire premise of the story was sad. Look it up or play it, it's well-told despite relying on mostly gameplay and graphival changes in the character and music as opposed to cinematic storytelling.

 

[Anstrup]

Carmine. Both of them.

Yeah sniff sniff

 

[Ultress]

Spoiler: Spoilertastic

I didn't mention Shinjiro/MC because they were more than slightly significant which didn't really qualify them for this thread.

 

[Janus Vesta]

Kaiden/Ashley from Mass Effect. It was the first time a game said "There are two people to save, there's only enough time to save one. There is no third option, you can't save them both. Choose."

 

[le picklez]

Only one I really cared about was zakhaev's son in CoD4 if that counts

 

[technoted]

Biggs, Wedge and Jessie in Final Fantasy 7.

Lirum in Lost Odyssey; damn that hurt.

That hurt a LOT. I loved that game, sadly I only rented it and didn't finish the entire thing.


OT: I would have to say that the death of the dad in Fallout 3 was shocking. I really did not expect it and was shaken when it happened.
