    have you ever cried during a game?


    If yes, what are a few notable ones? Please put in a spoiler box if your going to state a possible spoiler.

    also, what do you think about these kinds of emotional elements in gaming?



    I'm a really emotional kind of guy and so i find myself crying in many games. most recently would have to be Mother 3.
    I finished it last Thursday and I felt sad for almost the entire next day. (felt better with dancing though (y))

    the game i probably cried most in was probably yakuza 4. there were so many scenes that really brought me down.
     
    NieR is the biggest downer of a game I've ever played. It made me misty about 4+ times through the game and NG+.
     
    Final Fantasy X. I almost cried, but that still counts because I never cried once to a form of media.
     
    As strange as it may sound, I once cried playing Transformers for the DS. I cannot recall what exactly caused such sadness, but I believe it may have been more closely related to my parents' divorce and had simply been triggered by some sad occurrence in the storyline.
     
    Mass Effect 2.

    Oh god Mass Effect 2.

    70+ hours and then seeing...

    Spoiler:
     
    Dragon Quest IX.

    It's a very, very sad game. In which most cases, you didn't realize you liked that character and when they died...man oh man.
    Wha- Wha- What!? Argh! I need to finish that game!

    Two of the most tear jerking games I have played was The World Ends with You and 999: Nine Doors, Nine Persons, Nine Hours.

    Really, I mean, It tugged my heartstrings when Shiki... and Neku... aww.
     
    I bawled like a little baby at then end of Final fantasy IX ( because it was so sweet) and Final fantasy X (because it was so sad).
     
    Final fantasy X was the one that got me. Sad ending, was ruined by X-2 but that game can go die. The ending to X is the real ending.

    Wish I completed Mass effect it was awesome but I sold my xbox to get money to buy yhings i want on ps3. lol. Worth it though.
     
    I bawled at the end of Mother 3. I don't think any other game has made me cry like that. I also cried during chapter 6.
     
    who loved the games fate stay night/princess waltz/and kana little sis. i belive princess waltz was fantastic as it was 6 -7 gbs of data while usual games are 1-2 gbs. the pictures and everything are fantastic. its very dramtatical. who wants to see it become an anime like fate stay night and fate stay nights new upcomig anime on the other arc. kana wa very tear jerking.
     
    I cried in the following games:

    Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Red Rescue Team (The end. That was really sad.)

    Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of Time/Sky (Again, the end. That was just really sad. :()

    Final Fantasy VII - When Aeris died. I came close then. I also cried at the end of that game too. :(

    ...That's all of the games I've cried in that I can remember at this point. I'll probably post more as I remember them.
     
    I never cried during a game, but there sure some sad moments, particulary these:

    -the end of PMD red/blue rescue.
    -Final mission of red Dead Redemption.
     
    I'm not afraid to admit that I've cried at games, more notably at the endings ;o;

    PMD Red/Blue and the Explorers, I cried at the end.

    Final Fantasy X
    Spoiler:


    Final Fantasy X-2
    Spoiler:


    Resident Evil games make me cry of fear ;o; I'm scared of Zombies.
     
    I cry all the time with games. 8/

    The saddest scene in a game I've played, hands down, was the ending of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. You know it's coming but from the moment Zack is reading Aerith's final letter, I was crying. It was just so perfect, tying in cutscene with actual game/battle mechanics.

    Other than that:
    Elite Beat Agents - The song with the girl whose dad dies fffffff.
    Final Fantasy X - Ending.
    Final Fantasy XIII - Ending.
    Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix - added sceen on the clocktower with Axel and Roxas
    Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days - Ending with Xion and Roxas.
    Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep - Epilogue.
    Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories - At the end when Naminé cries.
    Okami - cried at the end, and at that... paper's death? Tobi or something?
    Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Darkness - OMG THE ENDING. I CRIED AT A POKEMON GAME /fail
    Professor Layton and the Unwound Future - ending again. oh my god I cry whenever I see this.
    Tales of the Abyss - Ending after doing the contamination effect sidequest (it doesn't change the ending but gives it more meaning)

    I love when a game tugs on my heartstrings. It happens a lot more with games than it does other media simply because you tend to spend 30+ hours with these characters and seeing things happen to them can be so sad.
