Doesn't a Scene (cutscene) or trailer kinda defeat the purpose of listing games ?

Also how long before someone says A****'s Death ?

@Lulu_Lulu: Well I thought that the most thought provoking game was Lost Odyssey, even though the story was a little disjointed, they nailed the characters emotional ties to the game perfectly

Carrying Ellie out of the Firefly hospital in The Last of Us. And yes that was a gameplay moment. I don't remember crying as much as I did then

MGS3 the death of The Boss is easily the saddest moment of my game playing experience. Having to brutally fight this character after hearing her life story, all the way to the fact that the game actually makes you press a button to fire the gun makes this experience personal and just overall sad.

Hmm, dont really get that affected by games but i can recognize where the developer wants to have a emotional response and here my favorites are the best ending in Walking dead s2 and metal gear solid where Snake crawls , that was just a epic scene

@freemantle22: I have no idea. But the cutscene when one of the Pyramid Head's in SH2 thrusts a spear into Maria. That scene was pretty powerful.

Haha sometimes I don't understand your reasoning. Some of the most emotional parts of a game's story could really well be in a cutscene of a game, and are most often so. At least in modern games.

Ehmm, Naughty Dog is a Sub of Sony so ya their games will probably always be strictly for the sony console.

Yeah this, plus season 2 was pretty emotionally draining in itself.

Forgot which one it was but one of the colossi dying in Shadow of the Colossus, was the first gaming moment that moved me.

I'm usually not interested in game stories so I probably must have missed the point behind this colossi killing but I felt remorse killing them bar the annoying ones to kill of course (place your mean grin here).

Also the bond between the two Ico characters was touching also literally of course as you had to lead the other character by the hand.

Really ? That wasn't sad at all, since we barely have anytime with Sarah.... I think thats why they did Left Behind... It was a 2nd attempt.

@Lulu_Lulu: yeah pretty sure lots of people got the feels with that prologue, myself included. No second attempt needed. Left Behind was just extra story for Ellie. The prologue was to understand Joel.

SPOILER!!!

.

.

.

@Lulu_Lulu: there easily was enough with Sarah (birthday present interaction, "night baby girl", etc). It doesn't take much. Plus the fact that you got to play as her so really got a feeling for her fear and uncertainty of the escalating situation that she ended up paying for in the worst way.

Plus it was very well-acted. Hard to watch.

Yeah, and then after the Time Skip you forget all about it, plus the brief introductions and exists of other characters undermines the emotional impact of all of them, I mean its pretty obvious... They want you care about Ellie the most, almost to the point that it becomes sickening being around her so damn much.

Perhaps Joel cares about Sarah alot and they're gona use the context of that relationship to make the player care about Sarah vicariously through Joel.... Honestly, I didn't feel it.

@Lulu_Lulu: That's not true, there is as much emphasis on Joel's feelings as well as Ellie's. I feel sorry that you could't appreciate the story as much as I did.

Perhaps? It was his daughter. Just... Lmao... Get out of here.

@Lulu_Lulu: only reason you might've forgotten about Sarah was cuz you don't care about plot. I remembered her every time Joel got defensive cuz she was the reason he's like that. I remembered Sarah better than most people who die in media cuz I actually got to play as her and feel her fear through the slow way she control and the many twitches in her controls when sonething creepy happened. Don't say it's ineffective because it didn't do it for you. You have to acknowledge everyone else's response and think "why did it work for so many?" And you say I get too personal.

I cared... Right up until the point they started taking control away from me. If a game isn't confident enough to be a game then yeah, Couldn't Careless. Believe me, if a movie does the samething then I couldn't care less either. I don't have the patience for a director/developer who doesn't properly use the tools at their disposal.
