Bit late to comment, but with the release of Fallout 3 and all, here goes...

Worst Ending: Fallout.

"Hey, thanks for the help. Now fuck off."

Then, with force attacking or Bloody Mess trait, the true ending:
[Overseer turns to walk back inside. Player draws gun and shoots him literally to pieces. The sad remains vainly tries to crawl to the safety of the vault...only to be executed by the player, who then walks away - leaving the vault-dwellers without a leader, thereby forcing them to become independent beings or perish. And probably forcing them to leave the vault as well, as only the Overseer seems to know how it is run (and how to install the bloody water chip. Just desserts all around. Cue "Maybe" by The Ink Spots. The End.]

I loved that ending all those years ago. Sure, it's depressing and mean, but it is also poignant in a way few games achieve.
Also, the manual for Fallout 2 has the hero from the first game telling the backstory, revealing that he/she helped founding a desert community, led a good life and is now a village elder. See? Happy end after all!

Bioshocks Evil ending felt kind of annoyingly tacked on.

The worst ending has to be Battletoads for NES. The game is so hard, then all you get is this:

The Legend of Zelda: Twighlight Princess]

what?!!!! are you crazy? this one had an epic ending. some great final bosses, an amazing sword fight and credits that were beatiful. i demand an explanation sir!

 

[Duke Machine]

I gotta say I loathed the ending to Crysis...as for good ending...well i really liked the last half hourish of Mass Effect

(spoiler alert, like you care) the main character dies, but not in a "the bad guy fucked you over in the end" but in the "he gave his life for the greater good" which there is a decided lack of in games, most heroes get to go off and be brooding anti-heros which was cool the first 2 or 3 times.

FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU. THERES SPOILER TAGS FOR A REASON A HOLE. i was interested in that story. but you just fucking ruined it. thanks douchebag.

The ending to S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Clear Sky is just... terrible.
Heck, the entire final level is a joke where they re-used the final level from the predecessor and it can be beaten under a minute.

It's just a huge anticlimax to a game where you've been fighting your ass off to survive and the last level is childishly easy and on top of that the one ending that you can get sucks balls. You're inexplicapbly given the best weapons in the game on the last level and let me remind you that getting good weapons in this game normally is hard as hell.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R - Shadow of Chernobyl had 11 different endings, 11 endings for Christ sake, while Clear Sky crap has only one ending, and a pretty lame one at that. No replay value what so ever.

Dude, a minute long cinematic is epic for a NES game.

Dude, "absurdly powerful and significant character who is notably absent from later chronology" screams "dead by the last cutscene".

I really liked the ending to Dead Rising. I got all endings, A was my favorite.
Also, i felt this strange feeling of bliss after beating Sonic 3 And Knuckles after getting all items. Such a great game, S3&K was.

i dont really care. it really sucks when people ruin stories for you especially when people talk about how great they are. as far as dead by the last cutscene, the apprentice might have died later after the game ended, yoda esque or whatnot. look the point is its mean to ruin things for other people

Call of Duty 4 had probably the most epic chase scene/ending with you in a car trying to escaping RPG-wielding Russian Terrorists. The AC-130 part was cool too.
Legend of Zelda: some endings were pretty epic like Twilight Princess but the rest of em were a let down from the epicness I know of Link.

Yeah, TP's ending was good. Around the middle, though, did anyone else get the sense it was like "Oh, btw, Ganondorf." That pissed me off so much.

The best part of the Cod4 ending was right at the end, Price slides you a pistol, you go into Last Stand and take out Zakhaev and his guards. I remember the first time, I thought I only had to get Zakhaev, so I emptied the whole clip into him, then the guards turned and shot me.

The only one I can think of at the moment is Metal Gear Solid 4's ending, specifically the part with Raiden (Yes, I actually like Raiden). It was nice to see that after he went through so much, everything finally worked out for him.

I liked Raiden too, especially in MGS2 when he gets the sword. I don't understand all the hate for him.
