Top 10 Video Game Endings

Game intros? Pah, anyone can see and reminisce about them. All you have to do is put the disc in the machine. Game endings are much tougher – they require a degree of skill.

The endings to the first two Fallout games put Fallout 3 to shame, especially since Bethesda promised "over 300 ending variations" but silently backed out of their promise.

So many great games, but how are games like Metal Gear Solid 4 missing from the list?

Theparanerds5806d ago

Well MGS4 is missing because he felt like it wasn't a good ending.
Loved the Portal ending due to the song. good list

PirateThom5806d ago

As an MGS fan, I would put MGS3 above MGS4 for ending.

Darkstorn5806d ago

MGS4 needs to be on this list for it to be taken seriously.

Reibooi5806d ago

If anything Final Fantasy VII related should be on the list it should be the Crisis Core ending. It's easily one of the best video game endings of all time. Even knowing how it ends the ending is still incredible.

lightningsax5806d ago

Nearly forgot about that one! Yes! Agreed!

chidori6665806d ago

change this list ff7 ( crap ending) for MGS4 ending.

DJexs5806d ago

FF7 Crisis Core is the best ending in my opinion.

macco5475806d ago

Where the hell is MGS4? that ending got me all adrenaline rushed and everything, that last mission, the last fight, where you learn the whole truth about the Patriots and that liquid never existed, and made you feel like the slow one cause he was just Revolver Ocelot, and he was actually not the villain he was seemed to be, and later Raiden has a son, how'd the hell that happen? lol Then you have Big Boss come out, like whoa. O.O It was all awesome.

Also, might not be able to be up on the list, but i really like the ending to inFamous, how you find out Kesseler is actually Cole, and everything he did was to make a better him.

Yeah, I'd say that MGS2 is the most qualified, but I lose a lot of people on that one. I'd classify the "ending" to MGS2 as everything that happens upon entering Arsenal Gear, not only after the gameplay stops.

I remember MGS4 more for screwing up my schedule. I thought I'd have a traditional ending, but instead I was glued to the TV for far, far too long. Sure, I was glued, which was great, but I wish there was an in-game way to stop watching it and pick up from there in a day or so without consuming mass quantities of energy and putting unneccessary wear on the PS3.

I don't think I'm going to forget Red Dead Redemption's ending ever. Although it was pretty minimal, the big surprise at the end was great.

My favorite FF ending is the much-maligned XIII. Definitely. Followed by the much-maligned VIII.

Probably my least favorite was Dragon Quest VIII. I couldn't stand that there was such an epic game with a lot of emotion and character to it, and then you get this saturday-morning-cartoon ending that stops stuff dead in its tracks. That and Fallout 3. Ugh.

KingPin5806d ago

ANOTHER TOP TEN ON N4G! noooo! you kidding. do websites really have squat to talk about? something thats based on facts, avoids bias, and isnt flamebait. i guess not. so much for journalism. :| when was the last time you turned on your tv to watch news and hear them announce "top ten prison breaks of all time!" "top ten car chases" "top ten car jackings" "top ten bomb scares" top ten terrorist attacks" ........ok the last one might be abit insensitive. sorry. but u get my point. seriously people. do some freaking research. write something worth reading.

lightningsax5806d ago

Dude, I love top 10 articles when they're done by decent writers, no matter how many come out. They're great conversation starters, and they let us take them further with our own opinions. I've gotta say, when I'm delving into any retro stuff I've missed, I'll look at top 10's for buying purposes.

MMFGaming5806d ago

There's a big difference between journalism and entertainment writing. That's like demanding that Entertainment Weekly stick to investigate journalism and news reporting instead of doing their "Top 25 Actors of the Decade" pieces or whatever.

ALFAxD_CENTAURO5806d ago

This list need at least an MGS ending , I bet the Author didn't play any MGS Game.
