Games that triggered strong emotions?

what games have really touched and triggered strong emotions?

games that made you really sad? angry? happy?

for example, FLower for exapmle, I heard it it made a few people have tears..

and do you like it when video games hit home and make you have all these emotions?

would you want to see more games in the future like this?

The Darkness.

-No Spoilers below btw.

(Edited) The Darkness, for some odd reason had a strong impact on me. Ive played games like Heavy Rain or FFX and sure, they had an impact on my emotions, but The Darkness was special. The Darkness "imo" had the best voice acting ive ever got out of a game, so thats probably 1 main reason it impacted me as much as it did, and ofcourse the story as well.

I agree with The Darkness. Also, Halo 3

SPOILERS

When you see Master Chief's pull himself up.

MGS3

[spoiler] Being forced to execute The Boss after our battle was pretty painful, considering how great a character she was, and that you had just learned about her true reasons for doing everything she had done. I really tried to find a way to not do, and when it became clear I had no choice, I raged a bit realizing I had no choice but to do it. I wasn't easy to do, but I wanted to see it through. [/spoiler]

nice , im going to have to check out a few of those games.. haven't played them all

Super Mario Galaxy 2. Some of those speed runs and purple coin challenges had me more angry than I've been in a long, long time.

FFX's ending always gets me. I think it's the only game that's ever made me shed tears.gameguy6700

The Darkness and F.E.A.R.

When Dom found Maria in Gears 2.

I raged playing DMC3.

Pretty much every Need for Speed game triggered strong emotions of rage, and hate towards the developers. And my gamepads.

Heavy Rain, Valkyria Chronicles, and Persona 4.

MGS3

I agree, that and the ending are probably the most emotional yet also satisfying events in any game IMO. It got me a bit teary eyed ill admit

Deus Ex..

I can't even describe it.

The two "true" endings of STALKER: SoC...

Final Fantasy X, Kingdom Hearts 1&2, Metal Gear Solid 3, Mass Effect 2...

I'm sure there's more but I can't think of them now...

When Dom found Maria in Gears 2.

boydcake

this.

Without going into too much detail the part in Bioshock when these words are said, "A man chooses, a slave obeys".

Final Fantasy IX, definitely. I'll admit some of the Vivi scenes got me a little misty eyed, I loved that little bastard.

MGS3 definity.

Also, Luigi's mansion when luigi finally saves mario.

Beyond Good and Evil had a few fantastic moments with characters you actually cared about (never felt more attatched to a character than I was to Jade)

Also Super Mario Galaxy 2 had me tearing up with more joy than I have ever felt playing a video game in the 21 years I have lived.

There is a game called "The Experiment" which may trigger some emotions.Blubadox

The CCTV camera (you) guides the main character, you have to help her solve puzzles, hack terminals and stuff. I suggest you look for the walk-through to get some general tips on how to play it.

The ending of Half-Life 2: Episode Two

I also was mad with some levels in Super Mario Galaxy 2. The Prankster Comet on Chompworks to be exact. But I completed it.

the ending of final fantasy crisis core VII. very emotional.

Recently it was the ending of Red Dead Redemption, I won't say which emotion because that might be giving away to much information. But the ending was just really, really, effective.solidfish30

MGS3 & MGS4, Snake had been a character I cared about for years. (MGS4 was the first game I realized a game could equal or surpass a movies emotional depth)

Bioshock 1 & 2, especially the different endings of 2.

GOW III, more for the probable ending of Krato's journey.

GTA SA: Set in my HS years, I loved everything about this game.

RDR now that I've read the rest of the posts, I'm dying to see what happens, but I just made it to Mexico and am enjoying taking it slowly.

Final Fantasy X and Halo CE.

the halo thing was because at the time I had no clue thered be a sequel so I was completely convinced that MC was going to kill himself to destroy the Halo

Ending to Final Fantasy X and FFVII Crisis Core were really sad

The end of Half-Life 2: Episode Two is not only the saddest thing I've ever seen in a game, but also one of the saddest things I've ever seen full stop. I was sat in stunned silence for a few minutes afterwards while the credits rolled.

And despite already knowing what the twist was in Bioshock (a combination of guesswork and someone on here spoiling it), I got chills when it was revealed, and I still do to this day... probably just because of the way it's presented.

lost odyssey had numerous emotional cut-scenes, suprised nobody mentioned it yet.Dion2k7
