What're some of the best video game endings you've ever seen?

This topic was actually sparked by me just beating Fallout again, for the second time and realizing how truly awesome the ending is. It's all great, and the icing on the cake is watching your character trudge away from his vault with "Maybe" by The Ink Spots playing in the background.

There was also Conker's Bad Fur Day, which ended kinda bittersweet. He was king of the land, but that land was full of morons, (Kinda like RoG and this site :( ) and all he wanted to do was go home with his girlfriend.

I love the "in water" ending of silent hill 2. It's so depressing but makes a lot of sense.

worst game ending= Metal gear solid 2 :(

good one that comes to my mind?= final fantasy 7... that song in the end made me wait around 10 minutes before shutting it off though :/

Mario Bros has an awesome ending after level 936 where a drunk Carrot Top pops out, flips you off and pisses all over Mario.

I just got the one of the hardest endings of all time recently. The third ending of 8 Eyes after beating the third quest which is much harder than the 2nd quest, which is much harder than the original quest, which is hard as hell as it is.
I had an urge to capture the ending and turn it into a gif at that time.


And so I did.


And here it is.

I get that way every time I beat a Squaresoft game (screw SquareEnix, to me it's still Squaresoft/Square).

Worst game ending: No game should ever end on the end credits alone. As for worst non-credits ending, Medievil 2 cheated. Also, I hated Conker's Bad Fur Day's ending.

Best game ending: A tie between Medievil 1's "Hall of Heroes" ending and the ending to Onimusha 2 (including the "epilogue" after the credits).

Onimusha 2's ending was killer. And the bonus after made me yelp.
WILL SAMANOSUKE RETURN?

I bet that the final conclusion to the Legacy of Kain games is going to be one hell of a rhomp. They are after all forcing me to play them by their teaser endings that are just a prelude to the next game. We should be well rewarded for years of that crap.

yeah, i totally cried at the ICO ending.

I like the fight at the end of Wind Waker but I didn't like the ending.

and the ending to Vice City was some what homo.

I liked the Conker ending, except for the whole gay "The game froze" thing.

Although I did get a laugh out of it :(

Kingdom Hearts almost made me cry too, it was beautiful with the song playing in the background and all :(

The Metroid endings, although short and simple, are very neat.

You know how in Quake you telefrag Shub-Niggurath at the end and chop your way out with your axe? That's a totally cool ending. :)

The Best ending ever was I dont remember the name of it but after yoy kill the last boss and find your Gurl dead this big green glowy spear rams through your back and you swing around and try to kill the guy but he simply steps to the side you fall to the ground dead and thats it.

I know it's not a game but the last 2 episodes of GUNDAM SeeD almost made me cry

I may be one of the few people who actually liked Final Fantasy IX, but I thought it had a fantastic ending. Why? Because it was neat, tidy, happy, and uncomplicated. Don't get me wrong, confusing and oddly philosophical conclusions are ok, but it was so refreshing to see a Squaresoft game end without one.

The ending I would like to see is ANY of the endings for Star Ocean2. >:
Dammit DICKNOSE, and I want my FF6 back also.

I was sad at the end of Kingdom Hearts. Like a friend left me. Then I saw the clip at the end of the credits and was like, happy.

and the FF7 ending.

I liked FFIX. Just played through it a few weeks ago.

One of the things that botherd me about that ending was that they never told you what happend to Vivi. A whole bunch of Vivi clones shows up and that's it. They never tell you if he died. That kind of pissed me off because he was my favorite character in the game.

Ghosts n' Goblins was possibly the most well-written ending i've seen.

when you do all the optional stuff in kindom hearts, you get the another side, another story ending... IT IS THE MOST KICKASS ENDING IN THE WORLD!!!

p.s. who would have honestly played this game if it wasnt for sephiroth?

I don't think anything could top the ending to Postal 2. After all the load times, cat shooting, terrorists, load times, anthrax and load times, he just shoots his wife. After all of that! I'm glad I didn't pay for it.

Of course, who would expect a dramatic ending from a game where you can shoot people, and then pee on them?



...But the ending to Pong really brought a tear to my eye. Definately my favorite.

the ending of final fantasy 9 (or IX for any romans out there) was cool. especialy quina "make food for friends, good food comes from heart" or some crazy shitlike thant.

the 'bad' ending for castlevania aria of sorrow where the main character becomes dracula and recreates the scene from the start of symphony of the night.....(somewhat)....

and sonic adventure 1, with the akira style destruction

Oh shit yeah, and that Sonic Adventure Boss fight was awesome as well.
