Has a video game ever made you cry?

[sesselpupser]

What Hd nonsense? I've bought a few hd versions of games I loved back in the day. Most recently, the mgs hd collection. No memories tarnished here. I still love mgs3 and appreciate mgs2 more than I did at the time.

The HD remake of Silent Hill was pretty messed up from what I've heard, the PS3 can't do the fog properly so it takes away a lot of the atmosphere, apparently.

I think they have released a patch that fixed those issues recently.

MGS3s final battle against The Boss (Big Boss' mentor and one of two love interests, the second being EVA) bought tears to my eye. I was reluctant to press the square button to kill The Boss. MGS4's microwave scene and ending brought tears to my eye as well, a sense that after everything Old Snake has been through, the man, the face of MGS is about to leave us forever.

Er I never mentioned MGS did I.

Whilst your on that subject though did you buy the vita version?

 

[HE1RO]

FF8 made me tear up a bit, and MGS4. And also Mass Effect series, even before they added on to the final endings i still thought it was a good and worthwhile experience. (Now they need to make a new Mass Effect game thats basically all three games combined and 50x more side missions lol)

Ah. I wasn't aware of that. I'll be giving that a miss then.

When you said "hd nonsense" I thought you were making a blanket statement towards all hd re releases. Got the mgs collection for ps3. Wouldn't mind a vita, but I'll wait for a while before making a decision.

Understood.

MGS was designed with pressure sensitive buttons. They haven't adjusted for vita.
Example being if you draw your weapon your unable to holster it without firing a shot.

In sure choking and similar was pressure orientated too.

Just a heads up. Overall the vita does do it justice but no peacewalker.

Sorry for OT.

Mafia 1 was a pretty sad ending

 

[NLxAROSA]

No game ever made me cry, but when it comes to emotional connection, Heavy Rain did that extremely well.

Agreed. That mall scene early in the game was pretty intense.

 

[Brend]

Yakuza 3 most recently made me have tears in my eyes at the part where:

Rikiya gets shot and dies. It's just Kazuma's reaction that breaks my heart, the guy never shows emotion in like any of the games and then BAM.

I can see that being a problem for CQC. Can you unequip your weapon by tapping the weapon inventory button (r2 on the ps2/3) to unequip without firing or is that a no go on the vita too?

No once your in first person view with a weapon drawn your forced into firing a shot.

Weapon/item selection is handled well via touch screen but it isn't selectable when aiming via first person.

This is on MGS2. I've not played 3 yet. Mostly I have a silencer anyway so I can get away with firing a round.

 

[Crispy]

Yes, Modern Warfare 2. Why? I cried because I just wasted $60 on that piece of junk.

I actually shed a manly tear when

Spoiler

Johnson died at the end of Halo 3. Such a funny character.

 

[Tyger]

I played through the first Resistance recently (had it for ages, not got around to it) and I didn't cry but was kinda sad when the English dude who helps you dies...still covering you in his death throes, what a hero (sniff)

Yeah, that and the end of the second one gets me a bit emotional, and where Malikov dies in the third.
Also Cartwright (the English dude) lives, you can hear him on a radio in 3.
I like resistance

 

[Coxis]

Spoiler

Final Fantasy VII. When Sephiroth kills Aeris. I was young and I had grown attached to her. It was very sad.

 

[C6.R]

--Spoiler!--

In Battlefield 3 at the mission Thunderrun where the tank driver you play get's killed by terrorists.
I wasn't far away from crying but it was more from my angryness.
The mission after that all shot is fired were mixed with screaming en swearing

 

[Jerwin]

It got emotional in AC2 when

Spoiler

Umberto betrays your family and kills your brothers and father.

Yup

 

[ghskilla]

Spoiler

FFVII Crisis Core - Zack's death

inFAMOUS 2 - Zeke's death when you play as an Evil character.

 

[Daniel]

No wait! Medal of Honour (2010), the bit where you get seriously ambushed and you radio for backup, it gets progressively worse and the guys you're with start to lose hope, and you eventually radio back saying 'actually, don't bother, we're pretty much going to die' and then BOOM! Apaches turn up and sort everything out. If they hadn't I would've been a wreck for sure.

Ditto - I was still emotional even with the rescue. The ending was really emotional because the characters were well written compared to most FPSs...


Although Journey didn't make me cry, it's one of the most emotional games I've ever played. The comradeship you form with your first fellow Wanderer <3

 

[gogatrs]

I've shed a tear at the finale of every Ace of Combat I've ever played.
Particularly one mission of AoC 5 where one of your wing men gets shot. He knows he's going down so he crashes the plane into an evacuated football stadium to avoid causing any further deaths. Dealing with that while shooting down the rest of the baddies was very difficult.

CHOPPER! I totally missed that.

Well, it was no fun at all when the last of my allies, Lisa Garland, started to bleed all over and was lost in Silent Hill. That was godawful. It's kinda hard to keep the hope up when the light at the end of the tunnel blacks out and there you are. Screwed. Especially strong was the moment when she sits there still as if she's tired of everything and that first trickle of blood runs down from her head and down by her nose. I felt like yelling NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

No crying or anything but I thought it was pretty sad too in the same way at the end of Resistance 2

Spoiler

when Hale turns and says "Can you hear it? They are calling to us. It is beautiful."

because it had been building ever since the phrase

Spoiler

"are you gonna make your last hours count?"

That's what i was thinkng. 👍
Also some of the orphanage scenes are quite moving too.

 

[Korza]

Oddly enough, the Oddworld series is probably the only series I have felt an emotional connection in.

 

[Sttrobe]

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

It was the best game I ever played.
Best story
Best OST
Best scenery. I can't ask for me. Just remembering the time's I had playing that game..

totally agree!

 

[ilikewaffles11]

No but I'd say that there were two games with parts that I was really connected to.

That is Medal of Honor 2012 when your getting overrun and are pretty much screwed and then the Apaches show up.

The other is the mission Thunder Run in Battlefield 3 and the one after that. I always really liked the part in Thunder Run where your moving towards the city on the .50 cal and when the car bombs are driving towards you and you have to defend the tank.
