WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

I saw a similar discussion on Reddit and thought it was fun remembering some great endings to video games. So what are your favorite, or most impactful, endings to video games?

Two distinct ones come to mind for me:

-COD: Black Ops

Spoiler

Finding out that Reznov had died during the breakout and that my character (Mason) had been turned into a Soviet sleeper agent was super trippy

-Valiant Hearts: The Great War

Spoiler

Emile dying 

:(

I was never really a video game  person, but I thought it was cool at the end of Metriod that the hero turned out to be a girl.

The Last of Us - Saving Ellie and not telling her what really happened.

I'm not sure it was my favorite ending but it certainly was one of the most memorable endings of any game I've ever played.  That game was an emotional roller coaster.

That was so GD hard to accomplish for so little payoff.

Horizon: Zero Dawn was probably my favorite story beginning to end. Couldn't wait to unravel the mystery.

Chrono Trigger was one of my favorite games and I loved how it had multiple endings depending on how you got to the final boss.

The ending of Bioshock (saving all little sisters path) was amazing.

Definitely on Bioshock Infinite. I think I sat there in disbelief for several minutes.

Contra III: The Aliens Wars.

I don't remember the ending being all the spectacular but it was certainly the most satisfying.  My friend and I played that game so much trying to beat it and when we finally did it was such a great feeling.  One of the hardest but enjoyable two player games.

Hrm, probably a toss up between The Last of Us and Mass Effect 1.

NFS Porsche Edition - I remember this b/c it's been one of the few games I ever beat multiple times - loved this game.

Duke Nukem 3D ending was great but the whole game was just a lot of fun again, beat it multiple times because it was such a great game.

The Last of Us.

I can't even really think of what would be #2.  Video games almost never stick the ending, even the ones with good stories overall.

Mass Effect 1

Metal Gear Solid

Resident Evil 2 - Full Ending (A+B)

Resident Evil 3

Mass Effect 2

Bioshock

Donkey Kong Country 2 - 100% ending

Super Mario Sunshine

Metroid Prime

Probably others too. Those are off the top of my head.

LA Noire. Only game I can ever remember I was on the verge of tears. I became pretty attached and related a lot to Phelps. Add on to that the sham funeral at the end and I was left sad, shocked, and pissed off.

Beyond Good and Evil was such a good game with a fantastic ending. That game stuck with me for a long time. Shame that it being on GameCube probably limited its audience.
