most disappointing ending

After finally getting around to beating Mechassult and Crimson skies, I am forced to wonder if all I get to watch now is a 30 second blip for the sequel. Are all games like this now or is it just me? What other game endings were a major disappointment for you?

After finishing "Soul Reaver", all I got was "To be continued..." Pissed off could not even begin to let you know how mad I was. It completely turned me off of the series all toghether.

I don't think anyone remembers 'Independence Day' for the playstation but that had to be the single worst ending ever. I spent hours trying to beat that game only to get a "Thanks for playing now go outside". THAT is a crappy ending...

half life ending was pretty meh, especially since the last 1/3 of the game was in zen which sucked.

spose compaired to the rest of it though.

i dont know, i think i just like cgi, so i love it when i see a cool movie, and having to work hard to see it makes it all the better.

I'd have to say that the Silent Hill series have the most disappointing endings in all of gamingdom. I mean, I don't think you can even call the sequences at the ends "endings." That's how bad they are.

Let me just say that you should be used to disappointed endings based on your signature quote. Don't worry, I'm a Cubs fan too and know the same heartache

Disappointing for me would probably be the first mario (nes).. all that work ... for not much of an ending.

KOTOR had a stupid ending. The ending was the exact same ending as the first movie!!! Handing out medals and waving to the crowd... How stupid. That was the nice ending (light side) I couldn't face the game again to get the dark side ending. Probably just getting medals and waving to the bad guys or something...

I thought part 1 was bad but 2 and 3 have been incredible, keeping in my there are multiple endings.

Freespace II get both the best and the worst.
The best part is when the star goes supernova.
The worst is not giving any information on Bosh. I foughted him for half of the game and dont get to see him again for the other half.

Even with having to put up with Raiden's bitchiness, I still loved MGS2. But that ending didn't make you feel like you accomplished anything. In fact, it made you feel like even more of a puppet. Of course, that's exactly what they were going for, but it was still a drag. Plus, not being able to save E.E. no matter what sucked.

Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. There just wasn't an ending at all.

KOTOR didn't really get my emotions stirring at the end either (but I forgive them, since my emotions were played with in the middle of the game). I just would have liked to see some deeper moments between Bastilla and the main character.

Rampage for NES. You cant save, but have unlimited lives. The game has several levels per section of the country with about 20-30 sections of the country. Some of the levels take 5 minutes to beat. So if you have an avg of 5 levels per section you have about 125 levels. at 5 min a pop thats 625 minutes or roughly 10 hours of sitting at an NES machine. I remember it took me ( including pausing it for dinner ) about 14 hours to beat. and when you do all it does is have your character on a black outline of the USA and say ( mispelled even ) CONGRATURATIONS.

Dude, I totally agree. My dad and I played it all the way through back in the day, destroyed the entire US, and then- nuthin. A lot of NES games have that kind of ending- I guess they didn't really expect most people to finish them back then.

Mario Kart: Double Dash!! gets my vote here...all that hard work, and you get to see the credits and a new title screen. That's EXACTLY what I hoped I worked so hard and so long for. *rolls eyes*

Def Jam Vendetta was cheesy as hell, but the game was fun, and the entire story was pretty shitty to begin with.

any reasoning with that? a lot of people say it sucked because they didn't understand it. that's not much of a premisses.

I loved the MGS2 ending. Excellent ending to an excellent game. I didn't like the BG: Dark Alliance ending, if I remember correctly it was basically just "to be continued."

I personally never said that MGS2 had a bad ending, I just said I found it disappointing. It made perfect sense, but it was unsatisfying.
