In Borderlands, when you find TK Baha dead. I didn't get sad, I justgot super angry and immediately when to the nearest bandit base (which held guys about 5 levels lower than me) and slaughtered every last one of them. I had become kinda attached to the blind, one-legged, shotgun wielding hillbilly. Finding him dead just kinda opened something within me.
The Things That Made You Emotional in Gaming... Surprisingly

When Mama Hawke died in DA2. My own mother had just recently died, and the wound was still fresh, so to speak. That, and the moment you see the white lilies in your home, you know it's too late to save her. Broke my heart, it did.
The ending of the Fallout: New Vegas slideshow.
Deciding Dog/God's fate in the F:NV Dead Money DLC.
Reading about Dean, Vera and Sinclair in Dead Money and the history they had together.
Boone's background story in New Vegas.
However, Magoichi Saika's ending in Samurai Warriors 2 could quite possibly be the most unexpected ending I've ever seen in a video gaming, I did not see that coming.
The ending character narrations in Dynasty Warriors 5 were very well done, the narrator was great and the music fit perfectly. Also the endings in Dynasty Warriors 4 were also very good.

I felt kind of bad when my first Pikmin died, but as I progressed, each additional death affected me less and less to the point where I just said to heck with it and began tossing them into dangerous situations with abandon. I learned a lesson that I'm not sure I wanted to.
I know this is kind of a widely-mocked plot, but when you find Don's wife in Gears 2. Just left me reeling.
Fuck. This for sure. But mystery dungeon time/darkness/sky was so much more taxxing to your emmotions. I mean really.XIII said:Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 1's storyline. I panicked/raged at the part where Gengar made the townsfolk try to kill you, and cried with my partner when you had to leave and turn back into a human. Never before has a game made me do that. I've replayed that game 80+ times just for the story
3 parts.
The Future.
Groviles sacrifice.
And after beating Dialga.
All who have played it know EXACTLY what I am saying. And it is MUCH worse when your partner is the opposite sex, cause it adds a romantic undertone.
I have played FFVII before Crisis Core, and I still teared up at the end, even though I knew what was going to happen. I just kept hoping it wouldn't, for some reason.triggrhappy94 said:
Meet the Medic. Literally, cried in happiness watching it. 8 times. In a row. With tears streaming down my face every second.

That's exactly how I felt. I liked the action in Gears of War 2, but I never cared in the slightest for any of the characters. Including whiny Dom and his missing wife. I played with a friend who had beaten the game before I did, so when we got to that part, it went like this:Deshara said:
Me: "yeah nope, she's not in there I bet."
Him: "hmm, maybe not, we'll see."
Me: "I seriously doubt i-woah she actually is there."
....
Me: "wow, the locust took good care of her it seems. That's weird... I wonder why they did that... she's acting kinda weird though..."
Him: "Yeah....."
....
Me: ".......................... D: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
^I was actually taken by complete surprise. Shocked, even. I actually recoiled back a bit and gasped. It was truly unexpected to get any kind of compelling emotional reaction to this game at all. But when I saw her real appearance, jesus fuck. The way she looked was truly horrific.
I've got a lot of complaints about Gears of War 2, but I think this particular scene was very well done.

OT: One scene that pops out in my head a surprisingly emotional was this
^It starts off looking pretty serious, then it becomes randomly hilarious.
But when things calm down and you play the song of healing... It just becomes, sad.
I don?t think I cried outright but I remember getting emotional over the ending to the snes game Soul Blazer. But it was a bit of an emotional rollercoaster ending and I was going through puberty at the time. It was a very cool game; very spiritual without being religious at all.
The Thousand Years of Dreams sequences from Lost Oddysee made me cry like a little ***** with almost 100% reliability.
The ending to Half-Life 2: Episode Two is one of the saddest things I've ever seen. I was left sitting in stunned silence for a good few minutes afterwards while the credits rolled.
Well I can't come up with an event that made me particularly sad but 2 games have managed to get an emotional response out of me but in both cases it was empathetic rage in The Force Unleashed 2, and God Of War 3:
SPOILER ALERT
tfu2: the moment when Starkiller confronts Vader who has taken Juno hostage, who tries to strike Vader who telekenetically hurts and throws her out the window, followed by Starkiller going into a rage and me along with him where the only thing we desired was Vader battered broken and killed. My exact thought process was once the moral choice got brought up "TO HELL WITH THE CANNON VADER DIES NOW!!!" this was my first time playing through the game so anybody who played it would imagine my surprise at the ending I got from that choice.
GOW3: The moment when Pandora jump towards Pandoras box and sacrifices herself to get it open for Kratos, I was kinda sad at that part because by then even Kratos didn't want to sacrifice her, although once Zues appeared whatever sadness I felt evaporated and transformed into rage, which by then I had a pretty good idea what was going through Kratos's head mostly bc it was the same thing going through mine "DIE YOU SELF RIJOICE **** OF A GOD DO NOT GO PAST GO DO NOT COLLECT 200 EFIN DOLLARS JUST DIES AND GO TO HELL!" Ya when I game I get really into it.

If you're talking of what I think you are, I was also surprised about how... simple it turned out. I expected an epic boss battle, but you just push him off of the ledge and are done with it.
Haha well I don't know if you've played the Dr. Zed expansion, but...storne said:
he kinda comes back. Keeps giving you missions, too.
In Oni: When
When commander Griffin gives the order and executes Dr. Kerr. He just made it personal...
