Best game ending ever?

No mentions for Metal Gear Solid 4? Blew my socks off when...

The original Snake (Naked Snake - MGS3 aka Big Boss) came over to Old Snake (Solid Snake) just as he was about to kill himself. Just watching David light up a cigar for a dying Jack, a convorsation between a rapidly aging, cloned son and his father; a man betrayed by his own country but he still took the fall for it just like his mentor, who we all thought was dead from Metal Gear Solid, and whom we played as and loved in Metal Gear Solid 3, military brass band music kicks in as they discuss my entire childhood infront of my eyes and put an end to the best saga in video game history. Haven't cried such manly tears since Will Smith's dog died in I Am Legend. :(

Mass Effect 1 & 2 (especially 1) were awesome.

Pity about the 3rd. I'd say that the 3rd game with the ending has been one of the most disappointing times of my life.
 
Favourite games where the endings were flat:
DA:O

I have to disagree, I think DA:O is one of the great endings. There are so many outcomes regarding who survives.

-The ritual decision is one of the great RPG moments imo.
-Then the battle where you can call on your allies you have gathered.
-Then round it all off with the classic celebration scene where you say goodbye to everyone.
-Then the slides showing what happened to the main characters.

I thought it was an exceptional ending, with all loose ends tied up(except one that was dangled in front of us to great effect;)) and a very satisfying conclusion imo....bought to you from the people behind Mass Effect 3!
 
KoToR for me, well maybe not just the ending but the entire story - i was like WTF when first playing it. I was just so engaged!

ME, Portal are both worthy mentions!!
 
R-Type 2 I think it was called, The ending is mega & blew me away at the time, No other game ending is memorable to me.
 
KOTOR probably depends on the ending you get. I played it as a complete good guy all the way through, and the ending was vomit-inducing :)
 
GTA4's ending was quite mature, although the final level was far too tough iirc.
I'll agree that Portal 1 & 2 had great endings.
To the Moon hit all the right spots, although was a bit predictable.
Oh, and POP Sands of Time... Classic ending!
 
I absolutely love the MGS games, but I have never played MGS4! ....I waited for ages in hope of some announcement that it would be released on 360(or even PC lol), but it never came:(


Sadly it was not only designed for the PS3 but its under a very strict exclusivity deal with Sony, even if Hideo wanted to port it to other platforms, he couldn't.

If you have a friend with a PS3, ask to borrow it or something. :p
