Donkey Kong Country for the SNES. Not the storyline or anything, but I played that game a lot when I was a kid so when I hear the song for the credits at the end of the game it'll bring a tear to my eye.

Yay for reviving dead threads!

Too many games to count have made me cry. Think of an obvious one. . .yeah, that one. I cried.

Here's a surprise, though: Super Mario Galaxy made me cry. Not just the end, either. My anticipation of this game was so strong that when I launched off that very first planet and the music started up, I wept tears of joy and awe. My inner child hadn't been that enthralled since. . .I saw the first trailer for the game. 

The only video game that made me cry that I remember is inFAMOUS 2 where I had to kill Zeke.

Final Fantasy 7 (several parts)
Tales of Phantasia (PS1, mostly the first era of the game, but there are moments, such as in the elf village)
Tales of Eternia
Quest for Glory: Shadows of Darkness (not to spoil it, but somebody dies for greater good)
Sanitarium (the childhood chapter)
Prey (ending)
Radical Dreamers (a text based Super Famicom game, lots of crys in it)
Dragon Quest 6
there are more, but i have to dig them from my big bin of games to remember them

might as well add to my list since this was revived.

Lunar: The Silver Star and Eternal Blue
LIVE-A-LIVE (or LIVE-A-EVIL depending on how you look at the box art)
Final Fantasy 8
Final Fantasy 13
Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core
Dragon Quest 4 (PS1 version only)
Chrono Cross
Xenogears
(possibly) Tengai Makyou Zero (Tenjin's story and relationship to one of the devil generals)

Final Fantasy 6- Celes' Suicide attempt. Setzer's story with Daryl about their relationship.

Chronotrigger- The death and the Resurrection of Chrono(especially if you bring Marle to the peak)

video games make me cry in frustration when I realize how much of my live I have thrown away into it

The Legend of Dragoon - when Lavitz died.
Final Fantasy IX - Vivi's story got to me, lol.

The books and movies that I've cried from are numerous, but games are rare.

I was playing inFAMOUS 2 again and in the final decision I chose to save humanity and wind up killing myself and all other conduits in the process and I couldn't control my emotions.  My eyes were so misty that tears were coming out halfway.

Let's see... Every time someone good died in Suikoden... ;-; and some bad.... I miss you Luc... That series is a huge punch to the gut.

I still tear up every time I think about that little girl in Grandia 2.... Which means I'm tearing up right now. That was the single saddest thing I've ever played. When Susan leaves in Grandia 1, which I never played when I was younger, downloaded it off the PS3, Such a tearful goodbye.

So many other examples, I easily get sucked into a story x3 So making me emote however is not hard.

The end of Lux-Pain made me cry...
Ahh...

FF7....that was the first one to get me.  ot to many games get to me like that though. Although I cry all the time at movies and tv shows.

The Mother series can be both funny and sad, especially Mother 3.  That one had me bawling several times throughout

Mass Effect 3 was most recent. Lots of moving moments.

Also, Sonic Generations. Loved that game so much. Always been a huge Sonic fan. I picked it up at midnight and played all the way through. Cried so much joy.

Oddly, the only game I've ever cried at the end of was Silent Hill 2.

Yes! Yes yes yes yes. Silent Hill 2 was the saddest game ever.

Huh! This is probably the most original topic I have ever seen.

Sometimes I would laugh until I cried, when playing video games with my son... he kept up a running commentary that was hilarious! 

I gotta revive this.

There was one game that made me cry super-hard...



I rented it, and it broke my Super Nintendo. No Joke.

I am not able to show any sad emotions or cry after, but only two put me to the point of making my eyesight a bit blurry:


- Metal Gear Solid, Otacon Ending. You know why.


- Nier. The First playthrough is bad enough, but getting to the second and being able to see the story from Kaine's point of view will make you want to kill yourself.

I'd like to explain it, but this forum does not seem to have a spoiler tag.


But that was a really sad summer, the combo of Nier, Earthbound and Mother 3 was a bit too much.

Games that made me cry

Sonic Adventures on Dreamcast.

Makken X on Dreamcast

Shenmue 1 on Dreamcast and 2 on Xbox

Anything from Quantic Dreams: Omikron the Nomad Soul,  Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecies here in the US) and Heavy Rain.

There's way more but those are the ones that stick out.

Please, be more careful, not everybody has played it and you are killing the story for them.
