When has a game made you cry?

And no, I'm not talking about crying over how horrible it was, but rather from tearjerker moments.

For me, it was the last bits of MGS4 since Snake was a childhood hero of mine because I've played the all the games in the series (including the NES and MSX versions of the first and the MSX sequel).

[spoiler] When Snake went through that microwave hallway and I had to rapidly press Triangle to make it through, I was crying a bit about the situation Snake was in and how I thought I broke my thumb. Also, the ending cinematic, on top of being the best ending I've ever seen in a game (and probably for anything), made me cry throughout the credits. Yeah, I'm not afraid to admit it. [/spoiler]

Anyone else ever had these kinds of moments?

heavy rain had some moments
MGS 4
MGS3 killing the boss she was so cool i didnt want to do it:cry:
ending to FFX

cant remember anymore at the moment

I don't know about "cry" or even the manly cough. From a couple of TV shows, maybe. But for games, I just feel like crap for the rest of the day :P. There are probably more, but the one that comes to mind is in Brothers in Arms Hell's Highway...

[spoiler] when Baker has to tell his best friend that he's never going to walk again [/spoiler]

That's probably the more moving scenes in a story driven game, I think. Stuff like KoTOR and Mass Effect do have a lot of emotional bits, but to me they usually just end up looking stiff and unnatural.

The only one I can think of is Final Fantasy X, Now that was sad!

Well, this didn't really make me cry but the song on the commercial of Kingdom Hearts made me cry a little bit.

I almost cried towards the end of Okami. There's a cutscene during the last boss battle that's quite moving.

Anyone who says Heavy Rain is a joke.

MGS 3 and 4 got me to tear up as well.

I can't remember any other games ever doing that. Something about the MGS series that makes it seem more dramatic than others.

Disc 1 Final Fantasy 7. You know why. I can't listen to Aeris' Theme without getting a little watery eyed at the very least anymore.

Also when Naked Snake saluted at the end of MGS3. You probably also know why.

For some reason I didn't in MGS4 at any point, probably because like Otacon said, Snake has had a hard life and I just couldn't see it getting any worse for him.

NHL Hockey 95 on the PC made my cry after trying to install it failed like 5 times and I punched the monitor (a big, heavy glass CRT monitor, not those fancy LCD ones like the kids have now days).

Oh, and just think... if you were your dad and came into your room and saw your son crying over a video game, you'd send that kid to military school!

closest I came to crying would be the end of GTA San Andreas, because such an amazing game was over.

GTA IV made me feel sad, especially with how they presented Roman's distress during the apartment fire and their desperation to relocated.

I sniffled at the end of the first Pokemon Mystery Dungeon...not even kidding.

I know I have cried at leats one other time because of a game, but I can't remember exactly what game that was...

halo3 killing those poor grunts :cry:

FFVII after you know who dies and the end of FFX both got me close to it.

Shadow of the Colossus. That game plays with your emotions.

pokemon fire red... but i was happy though when i was because it was the first time i beat the elite four without help from a guid or gamespot so i was proud but so emotionaly nerdy

When I was one kill frommy first nuke, I got killed :cry:

I never really "cried" over a game but I did feel a little emotional about the Final Fantasy X ending.

No game has made me cry but the two that were sad as hell was MGS3 and MGS4.

The only games I can remember getting choked up about were Shadow of the Colossus [spoiler] Agro sacrifices himself to save you [/spoiler] and Ace Combat 5 [spoiler] one of your pilots gets hit and doesn't eject so that he can guide the plane to an uninhabited area of the city [/spoiler] You'd think AC5 wouldn't make someone choke up, but the story and character development are actually quite deep.

Lost Odyssey, multiple times. The dreams where just so heart-breaking at times.

Lost Odyssey made me cry a few times. Examples? The story "Hannah's Departure." Also, (SPOILER) when Kaims doughter passes away, with her children there. What a great game!

EDIT: There were atleast 5(ish) more times. The dreams are so well written.

HellishKratos

The only one I can think of is FinaAl Fantasy X, Now that was sad!

unbentonslaught

Agree!

i came close during heavy rain :/

Never cried in regards to a game, but have become very emotional in the right scenes. Those "Come on, this CAN'T be how it goes....no." type of moments. Silent Hill 2's "truth" scene for lack of a better word. Persona 4...the scene in the hospital. Heavy Rain did have a few tough scenes too.

Bioshock 1 and 2's good endings are very "Awwwwwww" and makes you want to hug a teddy and go sleep sucking your thumb.

closest I came was Half Life 2 Episode 2.

but, no videogame has made my tear up yet.

On my first playthrough of Mass Effect when I talked to Vigil made me quite sad
