Emotional over games??

[ClockworkSpace]

Have you ever become very attached to the storyline in a game?

When I was much younger I played the Square Enix game 'The World Ends With You' and about 3/4 of the way through the game my game card glitched and it became unplayable.
It's hard to admit but I actually cried once because I wanted to find out what happened next in the game. After I fixed it (by trying it over and over) and completed the game I was depressed for a few days after because I hate when stories end.

Any else have similar experiences?

inFAMOUS, Heavy Rain, and Mass Effect. But not Uncharted, strangely enough.

[Kanon]

The ending of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. Both beautiful, and very sad.

[Mismo]

Well MGS3 always gets to me right at the end, and depending on the outcome in Mass Effect 2 it can really get me emotional. Especially when the person I romanced dies in the suicide mission.

[Chemich]

The Mass Effect Series, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Metro 2033, Fallout 3: Broken Steel (the other DLC really didn't matter to me.)

Besides the entire Half-Life series I really can't think of anything else... Maybe Mafia 1 and 2?

What's more upsetting, Aeris dying, or realizing you wasted hours grinding?

[Chdonga]

When Luna "dies" in Megaman Star Force 3. It wasn't like Aeris' death because since people don't talk about it all the time, you never expect it.

[Trambamboline]

Honestly, not so much. When I was younger I got upset because I accidentally released my Dragonite, and far more recently I choked up a few times in Katawa Shoujo, but other than that... meh. I'll sometimes be like "Haha, fuck you." when I defeat a villain I particularly dislike or something.

[HipnikDragomir]

The only reason I don't have Heavy Rain is because I know that if I screw up and get a character killed, I'll never forgive myself

[Lionelion]

ive never gotten emotional over storylines in games
not to say that im dead inside or anything like that, i just try to stay a little detached. I mean, it is just a game in the end.

[dogpup4]

Nothing comes to mind really. I've never really been an RPG person, I wish I was but the ones I've played just bore me. I like Mass Effect though, if I ever get round to completing that then I'd probably get attached to it (haven't touched it in a while since I lost 2 hours of progress thanks to me being stupid and not saving frequently.)

[II2none]

The end of Kingdom Hearts.

[Ragnarokia]

To The Moon - You will laugh, and you will cry.

[HotCakes]

Back in the day 2 of my cousins erased my pokemon gold saved game that I had spent over 100 hours trying to level up my pokemons. I was really attached to it.

[Back-From-Purgatory]

SPOILER ALERT

.....

I cried when Isara died in Valkyria Chronicles. I also cried playing FFX-2 during the "1000 words cinematic".

... Also cried when it took me 2 hours to be a boss in Star Ocean: The Last Hope to be confronted with a 45 min unskippable cinematic... to have the game freeze as soon as that cinematic finished... To have to do it all over again.. Including the boss.

I might have also cried when I couldn't get past the 2nd boss in Ninja Gaiden...

not usually but if i do get emotional, it will probably be with an rpg or something i would have put a lot of time into. three games spring to mind though

1) metal gear solid. that game had such an affect on me because i played it from start to finish practically non-stop so i got REALLY immersed. grey fox's last scene hit me like a truck and i think i almost shed a tear.

2) final fantasy 7. i played it when i was very young and i hadn't played a game like it before. i just got really attached to the characters - not aeris though, that whore.

3) metal gear solid 3. i don't even need to say any more than that. ;-;

[EKublai]

Flower (the desire for peace in my life), Limbo (the uncertainty of our long-term goals), Shadow of the Colossus (the beautiful things that must be destroyed so other beautiful things can survive, and most of all, Journey (The unexpected obstacles of solitude. I don't know but during the credits I couldn't stop thinking about my grandfather)

[TheMajormel]

I teared to kingdom hearts 2, I really don't know why. But it's one of those games you can have a good time with.

[Shade]

Brink, I nearly cried over the fact that I wasted five dollars on that piece of shit.

I would of liked that ending better if THE PERSON WHOS NAME I WONT MENTION BECAUSE SPOILERS wasn't crying while she was telling you A CERTAIN PERSONS true motives. She poured it on so fucking thick with the crying during her speech I just got annoyed and detached.

I haven't played Metal gear solid 3 yet. But I teared up in MGS 4

Spoilers: when snake has to crawl through the microwave hallway and he's almost at the end. I never mashed a button harder in my life. It was the first time you ever see snake so helpless and that got to me.

[Valjylmyr]

MGS3 and 4 both get to me. The Boss's death in 3 is always sad to me and nothing can make me stop crying during Naomi's death scene in 4.

[Luke]

I cried a few times throughout the Mass Effect trilogy.

[DoctorStrongbad]

Whenever I beat a game I get happy. Its a feeling of accomplishment.
