Well, I just finished The Walking Dead yesterday and I cried. I wasn't teary-eyed, it wasn't that a single tear rolled down my cheek, I full on cried. And it made me think. Has any other video game made me cry? I couldn't think of a single other one, I do remember getting a bit sad during DA:O and ME3, but I didn't actually cry. What about you?

Most visual novels such as ever17 make me cry. My waifu, nooooo. :cry: :P 

Don't think regular games ever made me cry though, never felt attached to any character.

ME3 made me cry when Shepard walked onto a table and couldn't walk off again.

if a short cartoon movie or even a commercial or movie trailer can make someone cry, why can't a videogame cutscene, considering they are the same thing?

I cried at Pac-Man once. The poor guy just wants to get something to eat and those damn ghosts just will not leave him alone. Seriously what bastards attacking a guy when he just wants to get something to eat even if it is just dots.

Also at Frogger. That poor green bastard just wanted to get to the other side but oh no he can't because of all the cars with road rage trying to kill a frog.I bet a few of those cars had people drinking and driving too.

Oh ya and Space invaders but what total alien invasion does not make a person shed a tear or two. I mean we watched our entire world get taken over by aliens. Sadly it was just one brave soul defending our invasion and all he had was four blocks to cover him from the onslaught.

Yeah, right now I am crying over how bad Hitman Absolution is.

After sneaking by hundreds of people - paranoid people, that is (they can make out your disguise in a split second) - when I am finally to kill the target, I find myself being jumped into a cutscene where a Mexican Gorilla beats the sh!t out of me (the rest is even worse). No, you can't kill your target in a Hitman game, "Oh no!, oh no, you can't!" says the developer.

I don't cry, but Nier did get in touch with these things of mine. What are they called... er, em-tons? em- emot ions, EMOTIONS. That's it.

I cried while playing Temple Run, probably the most depressing game ever... a man desperately trying to escape, despite there being no way out alive...

NieR, Odin Sphere, Shadow of the Colossus are three strong examples I can remember. Spec Ops: The Line didn't make me cry, but it certainly made me feel emotions I never thought a game ever would; mostly depression and a blinding sense of feeling like a total assho!e.

No game has ever come close to bringing me to tears. Some movies have come closer, but none have ever brought a tear to my eye.

Shadow of the Colossus and Journey both gave me that swelling stomach feeling. I went through Journey with my girlfriend and so I was really holding those tears back. Snake Eater is the only game that's gotten my eyes a little watery, though.

Just FFVII, but I haven't finished The Walking Dead yet. Been putting it off because I don't want such an awesome game to end. I need to though.

No.  Although, I came pretty close playing Nier more than a year ago.  I wouldn't have reacted that badly now though.

The games to actually make me cry, and I am not ashamed, but really impressed: Journey Valkyria Chronicles Heavy Rain Uncharted 3 Gears of War (when Dom dies) Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core Halo 4 I think that is all of them. I didn't realize there were that many. It really is only in specific sections of each game that caused it, but they were still incredible experiences.

When Mordin died I didn't cry, but I felt like it. I also got choked up when Solid Snake had to crawl throught the microwave tunnel at the end of MGS4.

The lack of intelligence hurts...the fact that you actually took time to post a message that does not contribute in any way is, well...just a little sad.

FF7
FF7 Crisis Core
FF8
Zone of the Enders 2 (ending and battlefleet level)
MGS3
Uncharted 2
MGS4
To the Moon
Star Wars: X wing Alliance
Homeworld
Shenmue 1,2

Not cried but felt very overwhelmed and emotional, probably cos of the story and music going together and down to beauty and immersion too.
Am sure theres more am missing.

Man, got a bunch of wimps frequenting this site. J/K.. I've never had a game make me cry, but I remember feeling pretty touched by the end to Prince of Persia 2008. I know a lot of people hated this ending, but I thought it was great. The guy purposely undid everything he had worked for and unleashed darkness on the world to save the life of the girl he fell in love with. Great stuff.
