Has a game ever made you cry?

Options
There are video games out there with great storylines which give alot of emotion.

I was thinking back to when me and my partner were playing through GTA IV and we chose the path where Roman is killed.. for some reason my partner got teary eyed which I thought was rather funny as I myself didn't find it that upsetting at all.

I've got teared up over a few games such as the latest Tomb Raider.

Have you ever teared up in front of your screen?

    It's not the games that make me cry, its the ranting and raving of OH when we try to to play together. Apparently I have no spacial awareness ...... I have real trouble walking and jumping and get frustrated and give up!

    Yes :o, I'll admit I have :p. *potential spoilers*


    It was Mass Effect 3, alot of people seem to forget most of the game was pretty great (especially with DLC added into the equation) and just remember the endings (which wasn't that bad in itself tbh, I think it was just the lack of choice in it when choice had been promised). I had a tear in my eye for some scenes (Thane's death, memorial and cameo at the end of the citadel DLC if romanced, Tali's suicide (only saw it once out of morbid curiosity :(, Mordin's death, Legion's death (again morbid curiosity :(), Legion's sacrifice, and a few other moments) but I actually cried a little during Garrus's goodbye (romanced). I think the Citadel DLC made up for a lot of the mistakes in game for me at least. Very touching moments in that.

    You do become attached to characters and the story and after going through three games it was sad to say goodbye.

    Yes, but I play quite story driven games. When they are available.

    The Myst series for instance

    Yes...

    When my old Atari 800xl used to take 15 mins to load a game... Only for it to crash during the final seconds of loading. Result. Cassette deck smashed up and onset of tears of regret of my actions lol

    I cried when I got the awful game It's A Knockout for Christmas, way back in the mists of time. I'd been happily telling mates that it had scored around 6% in a gaming review, only to find it staring up at me on Christmas morning.

    It was pretty sad when aeris(?) died in final fantasy 7.

    These days it more about levels of rage :)
