What's Your Single Saddest Moment In Video Gaming *Spoilers*

there have been many sad moments in gaming history...we all have our favorites, but mine is pretty easy to decide on:

COD4 *Spolier*

To me the single saddest/memorable moment in gaming, is when the nuke goes off killing all of the marines in its' path...the sequence of the bomb going off, and then watching all of the helicopters drop from the sky was pulled off amazingly well by IW...then afterwards taking control of Sgt. Jackson, and trying to climb from the wreckage to safety, to only do so in failure is easily the saddest moment in gaming for me...

so what are you saddest/emotional moments in gaming?

Either when Sephiroth kills Aerith, or when Tidus fades away at the end of ffx

Zack dying in crisis core was pretty sad too

ha, saw the user name for the response and knew what you were going to say....of all those three, to me Zack dying was the most sad...while it was crazy to see the sword go through Aerith, I just didn't feel as attached as Zack...I never really liked Tidus in FFX, so was kind of glad he faded....but the way that Zack went out, along with his growth through Crisis Core and everything he went to through...the ending nearly brought a tear to me eye

The nuke sceen from Call of Duty 4 is an excellent one.

For me it would be the end of Dreamfall. Partly because it was a cliffhanger and all three main characters are in a bad spot and partly because it will be years before we find out what happens next.

End of Crisis core- See above, I actually cried

End of Kotor1&2- something about malak & krei dying made me sad, it was all the regret they have i think

gray fox getting stomped out by REX in MGS1. after the long monolog and when snake was aimming that stinger launcher at REx's radar dish thing. its really sad.FreshDimSum

hmm i forgot that for a long time but still it cant beat MGS3 ending, nothing can, especially among these posts

The nuke scene in COD4 like some said is pretty sad. For me in COD4 though it was the end on the bridge seeing your buddies executed through blurry vision was pretty bad. I also was very saddened at the end of ghost recon 2 when you think you made it out of the bunker youre exiting it then bam. Then the generals words for some reason just hit me.

Aaah another edit World in Conflict is pretty saddening at times for sure more then one you just feel beaten and broken.

I guess it goes to show war has nothign to do with fun and games in the real world and these scenes remind you of that.

All of Shadow Of The Colossus. The entire game touched me in ways interactive media had failed to do before, and since. All without a single signifigant expression of narrative.

The experience spoke for itself. As powerful as experience as I've had ever, movies included. I suppose my reaction may have been what many have experienced, but have failed to express.. Simply one of the most unique experiences I've had in gaming.

When I made myself play through an hour of FF7, because I actually spent like $40 on that pile of cat feces.

Good god.

the ending to kingdom hearts, when sora painfully attempts to reunite with his lost friends riku and kairi, only to come within inches of reunion and have it all stripped away. The scene where kairi is looking at the wall paintings they drew as kids with the music in the background is quite touching i think.Amk33_Gc_Nike

that would probably be my 2nd or 3rd saddest moment...I think the song simple and clean added to the emotional value of the scene as well.

The death scene near the end of Disc 1 of Lost Odyssey. And also it's short-stories.sandroDX

Watching all 3 of my wingmen get blown to bits in Star Fox. "I'm Hit! Ribit!!!" BOOOOOMMMM!! Hahahahahaha....

Oh, sorry i thought this was happiest moments in gaming.
