What's some really great game with ending that left you really dissapointed?

I think GTAIV ...
[spoiler] Where Niko just kills that guy, Roman comes over and says some dramatic dialogue, and the camera zooms into the Statue of Liberty and fades to black was so dissapointing. I was hoping for more of an ending after that... like showing a retrospective of Niko's journey or something... instead it felt cut short. [/spoiler]

What about you guys?

Games that could be wrapped up in one game but purposely have a crap ending forcing a sequel. Some examples are RB6 and AC.

And yeah, GTA4 had a completely crap ending to finish a disaster of a story...man did they mess that up.

Agreed, I was going to say GTA4. I felt the whole story was weak. I wanted the feel of Vice City where you really rise to power. The end was so anticlimatic.

First of all, everyone please post spoiler tags as there are games I haven't got to play yet. Anyway, I'd have to go with Oblivion.

**Spoiler**

Being one of my favorite games, the end was still a big disappointment. Martin was an awesome guy yet has to sacrifice himself to cast Mehrunes Dagon back into Oblivion. The world just felt empty at the end without Martin or any other emperor.

STALKER.

I just finished it today, this is the ending where you refuse to join the C-consciousness. It was a pretty confusing ending and I didn't get very many answers from it. Did the zone disappear or what?

I'm a fan of the MGS series and even I admit MGS4 had a weak ending. Oh, and then there's also Bioshock.

MGS4. It's like they didn't know where to end it, so they just patched a ton of scenes together, some good and some goofy.

That's why I never finished it. The game lost the magic that the past GTA games possessed. The whole game was just way to realistic and lost all of the wackiness and elaborate missions the rest of the franchise was known for.

Me too, I'd heard about the multiple different endings before I'd finished it and was really dissapointed by the one I got. Althought my overall dissapointment with the whole game didn't help any.

Metroid Prime I.

That game's ending was really short and the extra endings weren't worth the time consuming.

I'm on the final island and just can't bring myself to do it. It just feels like a hassle. Surprisingly enough, I actually somewhat enjoy the online.

Hmm..well then I guess you should try to move slow. The only mission I struggled with was the last one and it was because the AI became buggy. For the construction I think I had body armor and a lot of bullets. Try some nades too.

You actually liked that game? I invested about 18 hours and felt it was a piece of junk compared to KOTOR. I cannot even play anymore because they are making me play as the other characters and the enemies are magically more powerful...bunch of crap, boring as hell.

That is true, but it is so slow, has random events happen that separate your team making you play as the other characters, I am completely sick of that crap...plus all the bugs...maybe I will play it again after another week.

Greatest games with most disappointing endings? GTAIV's was weak, didn't really tie anything together just sort of ended. I felt FFVII's was incredibly weak as well.

[spoilers]

Meteor hits the planet, but is stopped because the lifestream itself makes the sacrifice. Then it shows each of the characters faces being lit up from the light of the meteor hitting the barrier created by the lifestream, and after they all shield their faces Aeris' face appears (as she's now part of the lifestream) then it ends.

[end spoilers]

Bioshock had a really short ending that didn't really go as in-depth and didn't complement the story as well as I would've liked.

Mass Effect had that little cliffhanger ending that made me want the sequel right after it was over.
