1. Ico, before they ruined it with a little 2-second postscript.
2. Final Fantasy VII, before they ruined it with another shitty game and a terrible movie.
3. Every other video game ending sucks, especially all of the other Final Fantasy series.

Agree with many on others' lists, but MGS3 by far has the best ending of any game in any series ever.
Being a fan and understanding what the finale of that game meant in relation to the rest of the series is unbelievable. Big Boss and his sons, and those they encounter, are men you can truly do nothing but cry for.

Off the top of my head I can't think of any modern game endings that were awesome.
I remember SNES game endings that were good. I'd go with these in no particular order.
Final Fantasy IV
Chrono Trigger
Soul Blazer
Final Fantasy VI
After that I might throw in some PC titles like Final Fantasy VII, Heroes of Might and Magic V, and I kinda like the ending to Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.

1. Final Fantasy X (I don't think the end was ruined due to X-2 since the last scene of the game is the beginning of the ending scene of X-2.)
2. Final Fantasy XIII-2 (as where the disc ends, excluding any DLC to come out that is story based.)
3. Final Fantasy VIII
4. Shadow of the Colossus (I can't believe there isn't more people with this listed...)
5. Gears of War (Raam fight is just epic.)

About in the order they're listed there. Spoilers, etc.
Can't think of anymore than were moving, shocking, or unexpected atm.
o, the last two parts of Heavy Rain were a twist, but it wasn't really an ending per se because you still had to playthrough them.
EDIT: FF Tactics and Ys Seven had pretty good endings to them too.

I love Shadow of the Colossus, but the ending was... confusing. I'm down with going from place to place killing Colossi, but the ending isn't on par with the rest of the game... like at all. Comes out of left field.
Great game, but the ending... it's more wtf worthy than great.

I'd say Persona 4 has the most heart-warming ending of any video game I've played. Portal 2 would be a close second.

I don't remember the ending to Shadow of the Colossus.
Here ya go Krizz After you kill the final Colossus the people coming by horse back they show you earlier in the game reach the temple. Wander wakes up back at the temple as usually but surrounded by those people. They see that he's becoming possessed and try to kill him. He gets stabbed but then turns into this honkin' Colossus, Dormin. It turns out that by killing all the Colossi you set free Dormin, who was sealed in the temple. Dormin posses Wander's body and turns him into like this shadowy Colossus (the same stuff that you saw go into him every time you killed a colossus) and all the people run away. But their leader manages to grab Wander's sword and tosses it down the spiral stairs into the pond which creates some sort of reaction that sucks Dormin out of Wanderer but leaves him struggling not to get sucked in himself. After getting sucked in it shows you that his girl(Mono) ends up coming back to life and his horse(Agro) is still alive from sacrificing himself to cross that damn bridge. She goes over to the pond and finds Wanderer is now this baby with horns.

I hate XBox so I wont play one of the best JRPGs ever made. Right, that makes sense.
Also the best ending for me was the Bioshock 2 DLC campaign ending. It's also my favorite DLC of all time.
Bastion for XBLA/PC also had a really good ending. You could choose one of two endings and also you could choose to save someone at the end, which was a pretty cool way to end it.

Trust me. No it's not. I have 2 friends who are xbox nuts along with my brother.. The ONLY game that I've ever seen that's Xbox exclusive that even slightly interests me is Forza. I can buy bricks cheaper than what an Xbox costs.
Anyways, I'm not gonna turn this into a fanboy war.
@Jesi I'm not really an RPG person. It's xbox exclusive, which means even if I wanted to play it, I wouldn't. I won't buy a system for one or two games.

Where did you buy it from that you couldn't return it?

I forget was the ending to Chrono Cross any good? I can't remember it.
By Artemicion 2012-02-15 18:24:38
I dislike the Xbox as much as the next guy, but Lost Odyssey actually made it worthwhile for being a relatively decent modernized RPG compared to others that either are lackluster and disappointing or tiptoe across what defines it within the genre of being an RPG.
I forget was the ending to Chrono Cross any good? I can't remember it.
There's several endings possible from what I recall, but the special ending that involves actually using the Chrono Cross was decent from what I can remember. Though it's been ages since I last played/beat it, and generally the whole thing was a mindfuck.
Almost like asking if Evangelion has a good ending.
In general, no. In the grand scheme of things and how ridiculously crazy things are, not bad...

Yeah I remember something about casting magics in certain order according to color, that's all I really remember of the end.

Oh yeah forgot to include The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past in my list. That was the last Zelda game I played.
After seeing this thread, and being thoroughly disappointed, I started thinking about what I would fill it in with. I don't think I could list 50.
What would you rate as your top 5 or 10?
