counting down our picks for the top 10
most emotional video game endings you
did it
just like you always do for this list
we’re taking a look back at all the
video game endings that caught us right
in the fields we must strive to cherish
their memory whether it’s a beloved
characters death or a devastating love
story it has to have left an impact and
started the waterworks of course as we
are focusing on the game endings beware
of major spoilers ahead you killed my
father immediately like right now he’s
Zachary cause he’s okay to hit
I’m boss number 10 BioShock Infinite
what did he meet huh you tell me what
did he mean about my finger with an
ending as complex as it is moving this
game takes players on a trip to parallel
universes the definitive choice of
accepting a baptism drastically ends up
altering the future of the main
character booker look it’s us
not exactly we swim in different oceans
that land on the same Shore in the
timeline where he accepts the baptism he
becomes the racist dictator Comstock
ruler of the flying dystopian city of
Columbia once he comes to the terrible
realization that he was in fact in
opposition to himself all along he
presumes to end his life by drowning in
order to retract all of the events that
occurred though this does also raise
questions on whether or not his actions
also erased Elizabeth as well
number 9 halo 4 Kitana do you read
losing a partner on the battlefield is
tough noble six his sacrifice was also a
strong contender but losing the iconic
and memorable blue vixen Cortana was
just too much she fell won’t pretend to
know how you feel I’d have lost people I
care about but never anything like
you’re going through in the last moments
of the final battle she sacrifices
herself by holding the Didact down long
enough for Master Chief to finish him
off I’m not doing this one hand high
Cortana gives the last bit of herself to
materialize in physical form and touch
John for the first time as she bids her
final farewell
I would so long to do that artificial
intelligence or not this character’s end
was all too real welcome John
number eight the legend of zelda links
awakening in this quest link is
entrusted to defeat the nightmares that
are ailing the wind fish of covalent
island the legendary warrior finishes
this perilous quest only to find that
all the inhabitants of the island
disappear when he wakes him up as the
island in the real world was a
manifestation from the constructs of the
wind fish created as a dream
understanding this to be inevitable link
frees the wind fish of his slumber
leaving link and the player to wonder if
this was the right thing to do
number seven to the moon recruiting the
help of the Sigmund Corporation Johnny
Wiles believed that he would be able to
recreate his lifelong dream of going to
the moon before he dies over the course
of the procedure his memories become
muddled and corrupted causing him to
forget the meeting and death of his late
wife River
in his final moments we see the
artificial memory of him blasting into
space bound for the moon holding his
wife’s hand and then passing away in his
most prized moles
number six SpecOps the line the truth
walker is that you’re here because you
wanted to feel like something you’re not
discovering yourself to be your own
antagonist has to be one of the hardest
things a man can face
captain Martin Walker came to understand
this truth in his final bout with
Colonel Conrad is this really what you
want Walker Walker realizes his
hallucinations caused him to become
victim of his own delusions this isn’t
my fault
it takes a strong man to deny what’s
right in front of him instead of
becoming the war hero he desperately
turned to be he became the very killer
he damned
in the end the player is confronted with
the choice of taking his own life or
becoming the monster he dreamed of
stopping this is Captain Martin Walker
cresting immediate evacuation of Dubai
survivors one too many number five
Shadow of the Colossus fighting for a
doomed cause is better than not fighting
at all right in a quest to rescue his
fall in love wanderer must face and
destroy
16 colossi what he fails to realize is
that the Colossus existence are a seal
for the demon doorman after defeating
the last Colossus wander erroneously
summons dormant and becomes possessed
the irony kicks in heart as he’s never
able to see his love come back to life
at least not in his current form Oh
number four Final Fantasy 10 now sin is
finally dead just beating out crisis
cores ending is this tear-jerking moment
after the conclusive defeat of the
sinister beast sin the main character
Titus begins to fade away in the midst
of his team celebration
you see Titus is actually the
manifestation of a dream of beings
called faith and with sin gone their
dream is ending it’s confusing and weird
but bear with us the astonished reaction
of his companions didn’t compare to the
heartbreaking farewell he partakes with
yuna I have to go with her last words of
he departs with one final embrace
number three Red Dead Redemption what’s
wrong what’s happy stay inside you here
live by the gun die by the gun oh my god
they killed him John Marston looked like
he was finally ready to settle down when
his farm is ambushed by the US army led
by Edgar Ross the player gets a brief
moment to take control for one last
blaze of glory only to be inevitably
gunned down in a barrage of bullets
playing the role of the antihero John’s
last act was in an effort to protect his
wife and son don’t be worried about me
here though in the epilogue his son does
get sweet sweet revenge
