The Best Video Game Ending

[Zer_]

The ending to Homeworld.

Playing through one of the best RTS games, very well written with cut scenes that just drive you further. The ending is just brilliant. And after this ending you're greeted with one of the best rolling credits ever...

I loved the conversation with Kreia at the end of KOTOR2. It's the same concept as the fallout-ending narratives, but from an interesting character whose wisdom you've come to trust.

 

[firej7]

defiently Metal Gear Solid 4:Guns of the Patriots!

 

[Charm Offensive]

Sonic 2. When the station crashes and Sonic the Hedgehog is hurtling towards the Earth... Tails comes out of nowhere to catch him in his biplane.

I also really liked the L.A. Noire ending, but don't know how to post spoilers so wont go into detail. I will say that the finale 2 hours or so were a really great way to cap off such an intricate and intelligent narrative.

"So... There I am. King. King of aaall the land. And who'da thought that? Huh. Not me. I guess you know who these guys are now, 'cause I certainly do. I didn't want to know them, and yet, I may be king, and have all the money in the world. And all the land, and all that stuff. But you know, I don't really think I want it. I just wanna go home. With Berri. And I dunno, have a bottle of beer. Hmm. *deep sad sigh* Not gonna happen. It's true what they say, the grass is always greener, and you don't really know what it is you have until it's gone. Gone. Gone..."

*Bursts into tears*

The first thing that comes to mind is Sing Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne's neutral ending. That ending left me feel so... how do I put it... accomplished. Not to mention all happy and warm inside.

I really liked Hijiri and I hated that he died in the game, and when the music gets to the super uplifting part rightwhen you see Hijiri alive again... that was pretty damn awesome allright.

Anything that isn't the ending to KOTOR 2

 

[Zeema]

Infamous 2 Evil Ending

i was like HOLY SHIIIITTTTT!!!!!!!!

previous to that it was

Red Dead Redemption

 

[Kinaori]

Silent Hill 2, "In Water"
Portal 2
Mass Effect 2

(wow what's with all the 2's)

but yeah, Crisis Core takes the win on this one. That one hit me hard.

 

[ckam]

Final Fantasy 1

 

[TheTim]

the ending with the best cliff hanger would be Assassins Creed Brotherhood, but the most satisfying ending would be uncharted 2. loved it.

 

[Nfritzappa]

Final Fantasy VI

anyone who disagrees has not played it.
If we're talking this generation I'd say Portal 2. That was fantastic.

 

[Greatjusticeman]

A bunch of them.

Mass Effect 2 - A great ending, I thought. Especially the scene with the Normandy escaping the Collector base while it's blowing up with the awesome music playing in the background. Twas epic.

Dragon Age: Origins - The US ending are pretty sad, but great.

Fable TLC - I just loved it. I don't know why. Probably cause it shows that potrait of you being a boss with your cloak dancing in the wind as you glance over Albion.

MGS3 - Best Metal Gear game, imo. A great ending as well.

 

[cameron8161]

All 4 endings of Nier. God damn but that was good stuff. 'Specially if you had the balls (or the backup in this case) to actually get ending D.

 

[Hyperactiveman]

The Darkness. Just something about it that makes you feel good.

Agreed. Short, sweet and yet particularly sad... But that's exactly what you'd expect from the aesthetic and plot of game. End credits music and the title visual right after the last scene are awesome.

 

[Ldude893]

The endings in Portal and Portal 2. It's just more proof of the brilliance of Valve.

 

[gigastrike]

I kinda liked Dead Space 2's.

...What?

 

[ChupathingyX]

Zhang He's ending in Dynasty Wartriors 5 of course...

 

[Hamish Durie]

portal 2 all the way that turrent song was just heart wrenching
